One of the most astute business men
in New York city, who has through his
own efforts built up an enormous estab-
hshment, and who gives employment to
hundreds Of men, some of them at very
large salaries, told me he had very little
difficulty in finding the right kind Of
men for any department of his work /
was surprised to learn this and asked
him what was the secret Of his success.
He said:
Il have men to whom pay as much
as $4,000 year. have sometimes been
disappointed in my selection of helpers,
but as a rule never fail to get the kind
Of a man I want. AFy first rule is to Sc
lcct for experienced help only the men
who have succeeded in what they have
undertaken.
'No matter how prepossessing a man
may be, how taking in appearance or in
apparent qualifications, 1 never engage
him, he added, IF find that he has
made a failure in anything. On the 9TH
er hand, no matter how plain and un-
prepossessing a man maybe, if / learn
from his story that he has been promoted
step 10y step; that he has always re-
maincd in a place until he was advanced,
and that every change he made was a
change for the better, I engage him at
once. Such men never dissappoint Inc. "

A Kitchen Garden For Everybody.

In space 30 by 100 feet venture to say
that any man who will spend an hour a
day in his garden from the disappearance
Of frost in the spring till its temperance
in the autumn can raise all the vegetables
that a reasonably large familycan consume
during that time. Is that worth doing or
is 70 not? IL is true that vegetables are
rather cheap in this happy land Of plenty,
aud even a moderate bank account would
not be much encroached upon TO pay
for all the seasonable vegetables that
could be consumed by an ordinary family
But when yea have assisted in raisingyour
own vegetables and have gathered them
and have them on your table there is a
kind Of triple ownership in them thct
makes you relish them as you never rel
ished vegetables before.
4. You look out for their excellences and
favors, and your palate is keenly alert to
detect everything that is pleasant. Having
your own vegetables when you are an am
ateur adds another charm to eating, and
there is little chance that n dinner much of
which has come out of your own garden
viii De gone through with in a merely per-
functory way or gobbled up savagely, solely
TO appoase hunger. The raising of vegeta-
bles, therefore, contributes to the growth
of one of the most civilizing Of all the arts

Ice III 40 Gn,ernment IinIldlnrs.

One gets q vivid notion of the magni-
tude of the departments from the vast
quantities Of ice and coal which are re-
Quired to quench the thirst of the $4,000
clerks and keep them warm. The treas
ury consumes a ton and a half of ice
daily. taking an average tho year round.
An equal quantity is used in the war,
state and navy building. But the de-
partment of the interior is the great de-
vourer of ice Including the pension Of
fee. it gobbles up from five to six tons
every "A hours.
The quantities utilized are variable.
Each department makes its own contract
for ice, bids being advertised for annual
ly. No definite amount to be provided
is agreed upon. The contractor gets as
much for supplying all the frozen water
required, whatever it may be. All the
departments, together with their branch
es, consume $4,000 pounds every day.

WHY People pI.lrI.e a nooI. Agent.

"What is there about a book agent or
p peddler of any kind that is so distaste-
full to the ordinary citizen of today"
said Martin Cole. "The efforts of these
people to make a living is conscientious,
and ] am positive there is no work on
the face Of the earth that is half so
wearisome or soul trying as this one
thing Of canvassing books. There is no
satisfaction in it and not even a good
living. Every one turns with disgust
from the book agent. Probably it is
because people cannot brook anything
outside of the regular lines of trade
They prefer to have things in their pro-
per places-books in a book store, candy
in a candy store and the like throughout
the long list Of earthly articles that
we use. Then they want the stores close
at hand, so that they can rush out and
secure what they want, paying spot cash
for it.
"These are what people term the le-
gitimate lines of trade, and they are.
Then when peddler arrives, the mer-
chant or the ordinary citizen immediate
ly figures ont that anything that must
be brought about to him to effect a sale
must not be good. II is outside the le-
gitimate line, and if it were good It would
simply be placed upon the market
through the ordinary channels and left
for the public to conceive its merits. So,
then, Figure ont that this dissatisfaction
with book agents and the like resolves it.

an innate desire in the heart of every

street II have not seen you for an age.

Pigs Feet and Terrapin.

A observing business man, who has
had occasion to patronize at one time or
another nearly every restaurant in the
purely commercial section of the city,
has discovered an odd relationship be-
tween two articles of diet which rarely
if ever occur singly upon a bill Of fare.
"You can be reasonably sure" he said
the other day, "that when you see liver
and bacon set down among the edibles
you will not have to look far to discover
that you can also obtain a chicken liver
omelet.' Perhaps this win explain, he
added cynically, "why it is that so often
the liver Of the first dish appears in small
triangular pieces in the omelets."
The gentleman might have transferred
his obseryances also to certain up town
restaurants which cater TO the "swell''
members Of society. It's dollars to dough-
nuts that in at least one-half of those
which boast of their fine cooking, when
ever terrapin a Ia Maryland or Philadel-
phia or any other style is TO be had, it
will require but little urging TO obtain
fried pigs feet.

or together. with Madeira wine and vari.
