Speaking to young men, Victor Hugo once said: "It is the learning acquired at midnight that will make your, future bright and dazzling as midday." And in this terse epigram the great Frenchman stated a truth that applies. equally to struggling, ambitious young men the world over. Never before in the history of the world have young men had- opportunity to fit themselves for the battle of life as it is now given them.

"Times" for a guinea per month. Head the advertisement on page 3 of this issue. "-
