Though success has a great variety of meanings it is achieved through the use of certain principles. Chief among these is thrift. Proper effort in any line of endeavor is thrift. It means care with one's resources, consideration of health, the use of time, the centering of thought and care of one's earnings.

Thrift in these matters becomes a habit with the individual who becomes successful. It rarely develops in connection with only one phase of your personality. What the average man calls personal efficiency is really thrift. If you desire success, commence to be thrifty. Begin to save part of your earnings.

You will naturally develop thrift in other matters and you will move successward. Saving is the acid test of your chances for success.

The inspector, in turn, may appoint an assistant. The paragraph of the act which stipulates the compensation is as follows: "As full compensation for his services, the inspector shall receive for inspecting said oils in quantities in bulk of 4,000 gallons or more, 10 cents per barrel of fifty gallons. If inspected in lots of fifty barrels or more, the inspector shall receive 10 cents per barrel and 10 cents per barrel in lots of less than fifty barrels." Neither county nor SCate derive any revenue from the statute. The method of testing the oil is comparatively simple. The equipment consists of an alcohol lamp, a tripod, a small metal open boiler, a glass cup and a laboratory thermometer.

The prescribed procedure contained in the measure reads: "An inspector in the performance of his duties shall use the standard instruments and shall test all oils as follows: "The boiler shall have sufficient water in it to raise two-thirds up the side of the glass, or oil cup. "Fill the oil cup with oil to be tested to within one-eighth of an inch of the top. "Suspend the thermometer, so the bulb is just under the surface of the an alcohol lamp to heat the water bath, but before placing it under the boiler test the oil in the oil cup by bringing a lighted match in contact with the surface of the oil. If it does not ignite, slowly heat the oil, not slower than one degree of the thermometer a minute, nor faster than two degrees, moving a lighted match across the surface of the oil at each degree.
