But you say: "Wul the womanlv
clerks in our stores have promotion?'
Yes Time is coming when women
will be As we'll paid for their toll in
mercantile circles as men are now paid
for their toll Time is coming when a
woman will be allowed to do anything
she can do well II is only "A little
while ago when women knew nothing
of telegraphy, and they were kept ont
OF great many commercial circles
| where they are now welcome; and the
time viii go on until the woman who
at one counter in n store sells S.. 900
worth of goods in "A year Will get as
high a salary as the man who at the
! other counter of same store sells S.. 900
| worth OF goods. All honor to Lydia.

The second counsel have TO give TO
clerks is that you seek out what are
/ the lawful regulations OF your cstab-
iishments and then submit to them.
Every well ordered house has its
usages. In military life, on ships
deck, in commercial life. there must be
order and discipline. Those people
I
never know how TO command will
tell you what young man will make
ruin, financial and moral; it is the
young man who thrusts his thumb into
ms vest and SAYS: Nobody shall die
tate 70 me, am my own master; will
not su bmit 70 the regulations OF this
house Between an establishment in
which all the employees are under thor
ough discipline and the establishment
IN which the employees do about as they
choose Is the difference between success
and failure-bctwecn rapid accumula-
ton and utter bankruptcy DO not
come 10 the store ten minutes after
the time. BE there within two seconds
and let 1T be two seconds before in
stead OF two seconds after DO not
think anything too insignificant to do
well DO not say, Its only lust
once. From the most important
transaction in commerce down to the
particular style in which YOU tie a
string around a bundle, obey orders.
DO not get easily disgusted. While
others IN the store may lounge, or
iret or complain, you go with ready
hands, and cheerful face and content
ed spirit, TO your work. When the
bugle sounds the good soldier asks no
questions, but shoulders his znansack
fills his cantcen and listens for the
command of March,
Do not get the idea that your inter
