Do It Now.

Anyone who has travelled over the TntteQ States of America cannot fail to carry away from the crowded, juotling cities of the States a feeling of the tense lives lived by the American man, and, fur that matter also, of the American woman. The alertness that has produced the vigorous young republic is seen in the home, the factory, and the counting-house. The American is practical. Lest he forget he hangs his virtue or desired virtue over his desk. Step Into a live office in New York to-day, and one cannot fail to see a little card before the desk of the master f the business. On the card are the words, “p.i it now." That card indicates a wave that is passing over the States to-day—a L»e it now" wave. Another wave may <-cme along and another card may rake the place of “Do it now " — but, meanwhile, that card at present Is doing a work that will remain in the character of rhe person reading it daily and hourly. The “Do it now" character will have been worked into the life of the man, and he can afford to paiss on to. perhaps, the “Hurry up” wave or the “Be attve” wave. Whatever wave may come along, •‘Do it now” will have become, to an extent, part of his character. It's the same principle That a certain picture constantly before the youthful eye of Nelson made of him a naval hero. The American recognises that a picture or thought constantly moulds the life. Would not our lives be the better of a little “Do it nuw" virtue? Suppose we worked for a week on the ”D<» it now” motto, would we not at the week end be the happier and the better? Try it. You need not print a card, hut remember the motto, “Do it now. ' When you feel a little suggestion of ‘ Time enough.’’ just remember. “Du it now.” The “Do it now" will become a pleasure; because it becomes part of your character, gradually but surely.
