Some of Vreeland's Maxims.
H. H. Vreeland, President of the Metropolitan Railway, of New In a recent speech gave the following maxims: There are no elevators In the house of success. The “bad boy” often makes the best man. A man can be too confiding in others, but never too confident in hipaself. A college education Is a goodthing, but many a graduate finds himself overtrained. Clothes don’t make the man, but good clothes hrwe got many a man a good job. - A bad man with good manners often out-does a good man with bad manners. Many a hero of the world sees a “noaccount” every time he looks in the mirror. No man can stand on top because he Is put there. If you have $25, and want a job, It is better to spend S2O for clothes, $4 for shoes and the rest for a shave, a hair-cut and a clean collar, and walk to the place than go with the money In the pockets of a dingy suit—Success.
