This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1898. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER XXII. BUSINESS. Meaning of the Word--Training for Business--Boyish Experiments--Andrew Carnegie on Business Success--Folly of Speculating--High Salaries--Value of Prestige--Methods of Making Money--Foresight--Mastery of Details--Thrift--The Risks of Business--How to Win Promotion--How to Fail in Business. Business is a word of broad significance. I am concerned only with its commercial meaning, which includes mercantile pursuits, finance, keeping accounts, trade and commerce, mining and manufacturing. Business gives scope for the exercise of the highest faculties; industry, energy, judgment, and all the best traits of human nature. No one will deny that the business man performs invaluable service to society. The prejudice against trade is fast disappearing, even in the Old World. In England the members of a recent Conservative cabinet held sixty-four directorships in various companies. The question there is, not how to keep out of trade, but how to get into it. President Carnot of the French Republic was a business man all his days. Business is not all dollars; these are but the shell, the kernel lies within, and is to be enjoyed later, as the higher faculties of the business man, so constantly called into play, develop and mature. Krupp, the guu-maker, who rules over a dominion, and employs more men in his industrial army than many petty German kings had under their banners, refused the title of Prince of the Empire, and preferred to remain Prince of Steel. There is plenty of romance, as of honors, in business, if we have eyes to see, while the noble benefactions of business men are our national pride. Schopenhauer, whose father was a merchant, had a special respect for merchants, because, he said, they are more liberal and generous than other...
