The Young Man from College.

College bred young men are without
experience on tho practical side of life.
The pushing, alert business man is not
particularly impressed with the value of
college degree in forecasting the mar
ket or determining the value of "job
lots" because he knows business is not a
theory at all, but hard fact. Then,
too, collegians often give themselves SUI
perior airs, which do not go down with
their associates, the majority Of whom
have received honorable scars in their
fight with circumstances, and have little
tenderness for carpet knights. More
over, the inpressionable and formative
period of life having been spent in the
school room, they have not acquired that
alertness, that power to grasp business
situation or problem and instantly solve
1t. Nothing in their school books taught
them the shrewd, watchful readiness
competition makes necessary.
Take the young fellow who left school
as soon as he had mastered the rule of
three, and entered upon the struggle for
existence. His mind was open to all
impressions learned business with
out knowing he was learning, as a child
learns to talk. He has formed business
habits unconsciously. His mind was
nodded to alertness, rapidity Of thought,
promptitude Of action, the requirements
Of business character. Let as Illustrate.

brought up In well regulated home,
and place him beside the street Arab,

mental activity and practical knowledge
and shrowdness, the latter will run him
to cover In two minutes. Does not some
such difference exist between the edu-
Gated young man and the one to whom
business has been o matter of daily Life
since early youth, which makes employ
ers prefer the latter? Baldwin's Textile

o A Field for Investigators.

It was stated thirty years ago that an
ordinary battery would impart to per-
feet electric motor only one horse power
OF energy from consumption Of TWO
pounds of zinc per hour, while good
etca-n engine would give an equal power
frcm two pounds per hour of the much
cheaper coal. Professor Ayrton now as
seTts, however, that zinc batteries may
yet be made an important and economi-
eel source Of mechanical energy, and that
they may furnish a solution of the prob
lem OF converting the energy of coal into
electric energy without the wasteful
steazn cngine. Before this can be &C

Slide UP thy silver sands, o booming STA
The pines that skirt thee catch thy miastrelsy
And over all the forest swells tone
That echoes but the music of thine own.
Half silent, rivers glide, save murmurng waves
Break singing where the sweeping current layes,
Whispering among the pebbles, low and sweet;
So low SO sweet, wild birds the strain repeat.
Down through great velvet cliffs, rich with green
moss,
Long, gathering chains, the slipping torrents toss
Shivering and darling meath the arching trees.
The wandering winds in mystic minor keys
Sing their love songs above the waves and rocks
In harmony that every heart unlocks.
