Two Kinds of Walks.

Look at the methodical walk of the ser.
ried mass CT clerks and others in a position
more or less dependent. They are slaves to
the clock, and to tie routine to which
their daily hours are devoted. Do they not
walk oddly alike? And well they may, fol-
they are alike-at least in so far as they
are integers to help forward the routine
business work of the world. Their very
steps seem to say: Il am one of those who
have to be here at such and such a time,
and there at such a time. must not de-
lay. / must HE me TO my work"
1t is the same with soldiers. They, too,
are like so many spokes in a great wheel.
In sweet contrast there is the self made
man. He may have been a clerk like
others in his younger days. If so there is
touch of it still in his gait. But there is
also much more. 1t has developed into q
strut of the first water. He holds his head
high SO that all may look at him, and il
they will follow an example may model
themselves upon him. Behold metz he
seems to say; 81 am what have made my.
self! Did you ever see anything so remark.

WASHINGTON CITY, May "a few days
