Husbanding the Minutes.

It is wonderful to see how many hours prompt people contrive to make of a day. It is as if they picked up the moments the dawdlers lost. And if you ever find yourself where you have so many things pressing upon you that you hardly know how to begin, let me tell you a secret: Take hold of the very first one that comes to hand. You will find that the rest will all fall into line, and follow after like a company of well-drilled soldiers.
