When To Wind a watch.

A dry-gOods merchant and Il jeweler
were going home together on a street
car at the close Of their days labors, and
the former drew from his vest his hand
some t~ime-piece and proceeded to wind
IL up. "This isn't the right time Of day
to do that" said his friend. Every
watch should be wound at home the
first thing in the morning, SO that the
fullest tension of the spring may be-
upon the movement during the Earring
OF the owners footsteps while he is up
and awake. This will save frequent
regulation of the time-piece. Try it for
a month or two and you'll be surprised
at the improvement in your time."-

GREAT CONTRACTORS.

Men Who Knew How to Control Great
Masses of Laborers.
When the great works which we call
railways-and which are greater in the
labor expended on them than all the
pyramids ever built-were first projected
1t was seen that a new class of builder
was required, men who could carry out
scientific orders on a grand scale, who
could manage rough workmen in armies,
who could build by the mile instead of
the yard, and who could be trusted never
to rest satisfied with unworkmanlike re-
suits. Properly speaking, according to
the theorists, the work ought to have
been done by cooperative clubs of nav
vies-workmen so called because the
only great earthworks of the immediate
past we're canals, and those who cut
them were nicknamed "navigators"-but
the clubs did not exist, and, II they had
existed, would not have possessed either
adequate capital or sufficiently capable
dictators. Committees can not cut tun-
nels any more than they can command a
ship. 1t was found, too, that little con-
tractors wanted q big man over them.
II one Of them failed or proved incom-
petent, the entire great work was
stopped; they were often almost insane
ly jealous of each other, and their ag-
gregate profits were quite az heavy a
burden as the fortune the big contractor
might be expected to make. Shareholders
are not idealists; they felt that they
wanted big men as agents; and as soon
as the demand became strong, big men
came to the front. They came forward
from every class In the country, except
the highest-engineers, bridge builders,
canal cutters, b~rickmakers and q host of
men even less accustomed to large work,
but who felt the capacity to do 1t. Some
succeeded and some failed, but among
all the former there was, we have heard
old engineers say, a Strong family like
ness. They were not, as a rule, what is
called intellectual men, did not study
books much, and did their thinking with
q rapidity which nowadays would make
critics doubt II they thought at all.
They were not even like engineers, but
more like the early Kings or Generals OF
the pre-Prussian period, who knew how
to make man obey, how to overcome OBJ
stacles and how to get out of masses OF
laborers direct and positive results.
That last, as all great engineers know,
is a separate faculty, which, curiously
enough, does not belong to all men who
understand great works-which, for ex-
ample, has not been displayed by the
group of men, many Of them quite eY-
qualified in other respects.
who have expended so MANY millions
upon the Panama canal. They were
nearly all rough men, for they had to
make themselves feared by multitudes
TO whom softness seemed a little con- |
temptible; but they all, or at least all
who succeeded, possessed two rare facul- |
ties-they could decide at met and IRE.
vocably, and they could choose odt men. |

UsEL Ess LITTLE EXPENSES
Keep an Account Of What You Spend II Yau
Want TO Save Money-sil Great
Men no This.



Ben Franklin had q wise old head wheu
he advised his readers to take care of the
pennies and the pounds would take care
of themselves. The boy in whose pockets
the pennies burn holes will understand
the difficulty of taking care of the pen
mes, and like us not declare that it can
| not be done.
sIdon t know" says Rob Reckless,
"what becomes of my money. Only
yesterday l changed the dollar that
Uncle Tom gave me, and only bought
glass of soda, and now l have only Il
dime left. Where can it have gone?''
"My, how money does tiy!' exclaimed
Edith Random. ''What will papa say
when he discovers that my month 5
allowance has only lasted week?
Where did 1t go? l really can't tell. l
remember treating the girls to ices yes
terday, and buying ribbon the day be-
fore, and two pairs of gloves last Satur-
day and OH, dear dom ask me where it
has gone.'
But that is just the questian every boy
and girl should ask themselves when they
find their money disappearing.
alt is good thing TO keep an account
of Your small expenses, - John Bigelow
eX-minister to France, and q man of
wealth, once said to an acquaintance as
he entered au item in his note book.
His listener smiled ut the remark, but,
being sensible fellow, he took 1t to
heart. In recently telling the story of
his experience. he said that up 10 that
time he had never thought of the amount
it annually cost him for cigars and other
sundries. He began to itemize the cost
oil 10 of . u pf l,a
year when he footed up the sum of $3.50.
A change was wrought III him, and he
determined that he would keep such ex-
ppnses down to oue-third of the SUM in
question.
"'And now, he SAID ,'withIn ten years
have profited by Mr.. BigeIow's advice
to the amount of $4,000, which l have
handed over 10 my wife to keep for hard
times. And l have not become mean,
ether.'
Now it is not likely that any boy or
girl who reads these lines squanders $3.50
year on little expenses, but they may
squander SIS, or perhaps only 81 so, and
the lesson is obvious.
A great many little expenses are in
Cured for such useless objects that the
money might as well be thrown into the
street, and it is these expenses that an
expense book would check.
1t is not 'mean' to keep an account
of little expenses. The United States
government requires all postmasters to
collect and sell waste paper and string,
and render an account of the money
realized from the sale; army officers are
required to account for every hammer,
bit of harness, yard of cloth or gilt but
ton, and the weather bureau requires its
oh TO hn ~
every postage stamp.
So it is in every great mercantile or
manufacturing establishment; the little
expenses are rigidly looked after. be-
cause experience has shown that in the
aggregate they amount to large sums.
Take care of the pennies by noting
where they go, and you will be surprised
to find how the practice will act as
check on useless expenditure. Keep a
guard on the little expenses and you will
have no trouble with the big ones.
