The Best Only is Wanted.

We are living at present in an age
of keen competition and extreme &C
tlvity. Every merchant and business
man in whatever line is striving to
out-run his competitor. Never has
there been time when the minutes,
details of trade were SO severely scru-
tlnlzed as the present time Now in
order to be successful the employer
takes as his motto-"The Best Only is
Wanted The following article
which we clip from the Lake City Re-
publican illustrates the present stu
alton and should prove an educational
lesson for young men who are just
starting out for themselves.
Lord Bacon said long ago: awe
need fewer fiddlers and more men who
could build a town" Emerson hit
the truth squarely: owe do not need
more farmers, or bankers, or manu-
facturers. bu: more men who can farm,
who can manage banking houses, more
men who can manufacturer So in
every department of service, amid ali
vacant places there is cry for men.
In the course of conversation with a
manager of large dry goods estab-
llshment he remarked about the csplc-
lty OF his corps of helpers: live could
hnd IN everyone of these helpers what
we have been talking about-capacity
tor service, sterling character and 10y
atty OF purpose-we could double our
trade in six months.
Not long since a young man was
greeted on one of the busy streets in
Boston with this question: "What are
you finding to do now?' 81 am teller
IN bank" Was the answer, mention
ing his place of business. Eight years
before he was an Grand boy in a bust
ness firm, helping with his three dollars
a week widowed mother to keep the
little family together. 1t was one of
his duties to 60 every day 10 the bank.
AT the end of two years bank officer
called him into his private room for a
moments conversation. This is what
ne said to the boy: 81 don't know
your name and l don't care for any
recommendation from anybody. You
recommend yourself. l have watched
you tor two years and want you. II
the position offer you is worth your
consideration l hope you will accept
it, The boy considered it, accepted
it, and now for some time has been
teller in that bank.
If that boy had been bleached out
with cigarettes and the dissipation Of
late hours he would not have been
wanted. IT he had been robust in
physique, but deficient in mental pow
er he would not have been wanted.
If he had possessed an ideal physical
form and a mind as keen as a light
ming calculator, bu, had revealed great
moral weakness, he would not have
been wanted. He was wanted be-
cause he had a good character illu-
mined and served by trained mind
dwelling in a healthful and robus,
body.

ON PAYING DEBTS.

Did you ever hear a sermon on the
duty of debt-paying? We never did.
But one of the congregations in Char
lotte heard such sermon last Sunday.
Rev. c. l.. Hoffman, an Episcopalian
divine Of that city, taking the text,
cove no man anything" preached a
sermon that leaked through his con-
gregation into the papers. In the
proper spirit, such preaching cannot
fail to do good. 1.-THE world is ever
made better it must be made better
through the character and conduct of
Christian people; if they fail to pay
their debts they become stumbling
blocks. If the light that is in the
church people be darkness how great
is that darkness.
The preacher was profoundly right
when he said that practical religion
which business man could see and
comprehend was a religion needed to
overthrow atheism and bring the world
back to God. He had written down
some interviews with an average group
of Charlotte merchants. These mer-
chants testified that they suffered from
the credit system, more especially from
procrastinated payments that church
members were frequently delinquent
and that they had no faith in the pro-
Tossing Christian who wouldn't pay
his debts. Further along the preacher
emphasized the great evil of debt, OF
broken promises, and genteel theft and
the like. Some people liked the SER
mon, others didn't; but it cannot fail
to have a salutary effect.
Too many ministers shy at the texts
on debt-paying. Wonder why? Are
they themselves delinquent and thus
estopped from warning the people? 1t
ought not SO to be. The gospel of debt
paying should be preached from the
pulpit along with the other doctrines
'of probity and common honesty. If
the preachers hands are tied and lips
locked there is one of two evils at
the bottom of such a condition. Either
his people do not pay him his salary or
else he buys TOO much; maybe both.
In either case the remedy lies with
him. If he spends too much he can
stop it, and thus become a better ex-
| ample to his flock. If his people do
not pay him, no better indication is
needed that he has failed to preach the
doctrines they most need to hear. He
should see that they do pay him or re-
lease him. His influence as preacher
can have no more potency than it de.
rives from his character as a man.
When the pastor, feeling that the
gospel he breaches obliges himas man
to perform promptly and faithfully hi
contracts in business, begins to make
his life senst;vely responsive to hi
convictions, it will not be long before
his people hear TO their betterment the
doctrine of debt paying preached from
appropriate texts.-Gastonia Gazette.

"TEese opposing forces, spoken of
above as artificial advantages, are plen-
tiful capital, highly developed skill,
varied development, capable manage
ment. All of these New England has
in abundance; but she cannot prevent
their free mitigation. They are all the
creatures of opportunity, and, if the
south offers an opportunity, capital and
the will go south, and quickly create
a varied development.
"Thi5 is not mere theory; it is a
plain statement of what is actually hap
pening now every day and with daily
growing momentum. 1t is the bare
truth that the south has better mills
than the north-they are the product
of the best engineering skill obtalnable
and in every detail in construction and
arrangement are of the highest and
most scientific type. They are equip
ped with the most modern machinery,
embodying the latest desirable labor
saving improvements and are of higher
average efficiency, attested by quality
and quantity OF output, than any but
few northern mills. Moreover, they
have constructed mills at less cost than
other mills, and represent much less
cost per spindle or per loom than the
less efficient northern mills. With less
capital invested, they have greater
earning power than their northern COM
petltors.
"The test of the relative skill en-
ployed is the quality and quantity Of
output. In the comparison of similar
grades, the output of the best southern
mills is fully as great and in some cases
greater than that of the best northern
mills. 1t is produced with the same
number of machines and it is prodnced
at much less cost than the product of
northern mills. Finally, it is OF higher
average quality than northern product.
SO much for the results of skill and ex-
rience.
GAS to capital, hardly a leading
southern mill but counts among its
stockholders many northern investors,
and southern energy, southern capacity
and business shTewdness have been the
organizing forces. They have shown
that southern II en- have all the qualities
needed to command success, and can
without foreign aid develop a great
opportunity until it becomes a great
| success.
"Upon the foundation laid by south
ern men, sagacious northern capitalists
have aided to build great superstruc-
ture confident in its firmness."

An exchange talks to the ''semi-oc-
casional advertiser in this decidedly
common-sense manner: IF you roll
ball down an incline plane it will
roll considerably faster the last half of
the journey than the first half. In adj
yertising the second one will be more
than the first and the hundredth con-
siderably more effective than all pre-
cediug. The earlier motion gives an
impetus to the latter motion of the
ball, and the earlier advertising in
creases the power of the advertising
done later

Niles Nelson stood like statrc Of stone;
Then no raised his hand and said, with q
grOan:
"Is thcie God that viii kill child
And bring Its father across the wild
OF wintry plains to save from death
The child Of anotherf" He drew his breath
With q savage hiss. ~ he snatched away
The blanket In which the baby lay.
The blue eyes open; the rose lips call:
"Oh. papa. you're home! Now I want my
doll"
