Trade Secrets.

"Quite irrespective Of the immense
number of workmen who hold trade Sc
crets Of their respective employers, few
people ever realize what number of
workmen there are who hold small Sc
crets-some of them may consist mere
ly of knack of doing some particular
thing in peculiar way-of their own,
and most rigidly guard these, - re-
marked we'll known trades union
official.
II could cite many remarkable cases
where workmen, Oh account of their
method Of doing some one apparently
simple thing, have always been at a
premium with various masters, and
only the other day I was talking to the
head Of great decorating firm about
such a man.
"This firm has often, in decorating
great mansions and public buildings, to
carry out certain scheme Of color, and
that one color has to be uniform
throughout great area Of covered
space. This firm had one man who, if
100 rooms had to be painted, could in
fallibly mix fresh supplies Of color to
the exact shade, but during it's 40 years
Of existence the firm never had another
workman who could do this.
II could name for you 100 trades
where some one man effects his object
with few strokes where others labor
long and patiently, but what I want to
impress on the public is that workmen
possess and guard far more minor trade
secrets Of their own than the masters
ever did or do. "-Pearson's Weekly.
