Concerning the Overbearing Man

Eds. Record Union: In your is
sue of the 18th inst. your editorial COM
ments were truthful and appropriate as
could well be written, concerning the
paragraph copied from contemporary,
viz: He is a snob who thinks he is
any better than the man who works for
him."
| AS a rule. with some exceptions, the
term "snob'' is not justly applicable to
the proprietors or chief officials of en-
terprises generally; for the very fact
of their success, in most instances,
proves their ability and foresight to
understand the advantage of such treat
ment Of their employees as will insure
the respect and friendship of truly hon
orable workingmen; while by treating
them as slavish menials, lack of inter
est and enmity is the natural result.
For the average employee will do
more and better work at any and all
times for the interest of his employer
or officer directly in charge, whom he
respects, than can be forced out of him
through use Of insulting and humiliat-
ing language. This snobbishness and
arrogance usually emanates from some
petty boss, foreman or overseer who
has been appointed from the ranks of
his fellow workingmen to take charge
of employees, and too often selected for
the position for his supposed push or
slave driving capacity, rather than from
other qualification or superiority over
the majority of men to be under his
future control; and therein too often
lies the mis- axe of the appointing power.
1t is not the manly man but the con-
ceited, overbearing snob, clothed with
little brief authority who imagineS
himself entrenched in an impregnable
fortress from which he cannot be easily
dislodged and with no fixed principles
to act as a balance wheel, often en-
tertainS the mistaken idea that the
more he tyrannizes over and humiliates
those subject to his authority, the bet
ter he stands with his superiors. This
may be SO in exceptional cases, but
not as a rule. Those who sacrifice the
interests of employers to crafty person
al likes or dislikes, are as rule cring-
ing towards in the presence of their SUI
perior officers, Improbable and unfit
to take charge of and control men, ex-
cept, perhaps, of their own kind.
A manly man who seeks to elevate
rather than to humiliate, will get better
results. 1t is human nature to appre-
ciate respectful kindly treatment as
we'll as to rebel-secretly or openly
against a domineering overseer. who,
possessing no refined sensibility himself,
cannot appreciate or respect it in others
The Secretary of the Navy understood
this when he issued his recent order
to the officers of the Mare Island Navy
Yard, concerning the use of more re-
spectful language by former to en-

BABYS SMOOTH, FAIR SKIN

A Grateful Mother Writes this Letter
Tells all about Her Troubles when
Baby Broke out with Scrofula Sores.
cat the age of two months, my baby
began to have sores break out on his right
cheek. We used all the external ap-
plications that we could think or hear OF,
to no avail. The sores spread all oyer one
side of his face. We consulted physi-
clan and tried his medicine, and in week
the sore was gone. But to my surprise in
two weeks more another scrofulous look
ing sore appeared on baby's arm. 1t
grew worse and worse, and when he was
three months old, l began giving him
Hoods Sarsaparilla. / also took Hoods
SarsaparilIa, and before the first bottle
was finished, the sores were well and have
never returned. He is now four years old,
but he has never had any sign OF those
scrofulous sores since he was cured by
Hoods Sarsaparilla, for which feel very
grateful. My boy owes his good health
and smooth, fair skin to this great med
icine." MRS. s. s. WRoTEN, Farming

THE LASSO.

The lasso is of great antiquity It is said to be depicted in the ruins of Nineveh. An early Persian manu- script, preserved in the Escorial, shows a sportsman (whom I suppose royal by his Olympian expression and care less seat in the act of catching a wild ass with nicely plaited lasso. The monarch bestrides a rather "stocky
 looking, dark colored horse, with four white feet and white face. A bow, quivers and a saber are hung from his saddle, and a sort of housing half covers the horse. How the wild ass IS to be restrained, even by the hand of Q monarch, is not at first sight evident, for the lasso is neither fixed to the sad dle after the fashion of the gauchos, nor is a half turn taken round the pommel in the style adopted by vaqu- eros in Mexico and Texas. Apart from
