Some people say that the poor mans
boy doesn't stand any show, remarked
Mr.. Dolliver at Lincoln Park; that
only the sons of rich men have a
chance in the world. There never was
worse mistake, Mr.. Dolliver said
He had himself helped to make list
of all the very eminent men and
women of New York City; all the
great merchants, great authors, edi-
tors. physicians, presidents OF banks
and railroads, statesmen, philanthro-
pISts, ministerS-every name we'll
known in the city of New York, and
out of the whole lot only one had been
born in the city. The rest had walk
ed in from the rural districts. The
poor mans son, Dolliver says, is the
only one that has any show. The son
of the rich man never did and never
will have an equal chance. The reason
is easy to find There can be no high
attainment without great effort. toll,
and self denial. Whatever simply
floats, floats down the stream. 1t is
only the live things that work up the
stream The rich mans son sees no
need of bestirring himself. A boy
reared in luxury will not work He
curls up like dog on the doorstep,
and the toiler from the field passes
him by. Only one rich man ever be-
came President of the United States.
Dolliver says he has himself examined
the will of George Washington and

Eight years ago last fall Atchison
reporters wrote a little six line notice
of a marriage. 1t was just a little
dinky notice of the wedding of the
plain people. 1t was pulled off with
sounding of hewgags- One minister
was deemed sufficient to perform the
ceremony No guests came from afar
by special train. The elaborate list
of wedding presents was hot printed
y clerk who was working 16 hours d
day for $50 a month and a working
girl was married 1t wasn't really
worth any more newspaper space that
1t got. The clerk had been in the
habit of spending most of his salary
for ice cream, bon-bons and flowers
for his lady love. He was not the
sort of a young man who was always
scanning the sky for signs of ''rainy
day." and when he came to setting up
his lares ct penates in the shadow of
his own vine and fig tree he discov-
cred, after much scrimping here and
piecing out there, that he was shy a
kitchen table with absolutely no
money to satisfy the demands of his
kitchen in that respect. The night
he christened his own hearthstone he
borrowed quarter from a friend,
and after kindly darkness had come
hand store, invested the quarter in IA
table and carried it home on his back
to save drayage That was the be-
ginning. He laughs about it now
when he tells the story. Then the
clerk settled down to the business of
making himself invaluable to his en-
ployer. Pretty soon his salary was
received call from larger town
which carried with it still larger
salary. He and his wife left town
and the newspaper repol tiers lost
sight of him. The other day they
came back ON a vista visit to
friends they had known in the days
of their adversely. The plain clerk
who married on $50 month is now
the head of department in one of
the largest stores in st. Louis. He
gets a salary of $1,000 year and he
has 500 interest in the firm. He
lives in house with hot and cold
water in the kitchen and the deed is
made out in his own name. There is
a girl who answers the door bell and
another in the kitchen. There is
also a boy who looks after the horses
and washes the rubber-tired buggy.
When they came back to Atchison
the man who goes to New York every
two or three months and stops at the
Waldorf-A storia, and wears $50 suits
went around and hunted up the COM
panions of his adversity-most of 'em
are clerking still-and sat on the
counter and recalled stories of the
escapades of the old days. And the
woman who keeps two girls went up
to one of the stores, reached over be-
hind the counter, caught a girl in her
arms and kissed her right before all
the customers and the other clerks.
1t is not assumed that this plain tale
shall point a moral. 1t is written
to merely show that unfiagging indus
try and zeal in behalf of ones en-
ployer is an unfailing receipt for put
ting pie on the table three times a
day. 1t also seeks to prove that sue
cess and comparative affiuence does
not always beget snobbishness and
abnormal cranial development. -

The Chinese compositor cannot sit
at his case as our printers do, but
must walk from one case to the other
constantly, as the characters needed
cover such a large number that they
cannot be put into anything like the
space used in the English newspaper
office. In setting up an ordinary
piece of manuscript the Chinese
printer will waltz up and down the
room for a few minutes and then go
down stairs for line of lower case.
Then he takes the elevator and goes
up into the third story after some
caps, and then goes out into the wood
shed for a handful of astonishers.
