BUSINESS EDUCATION.

Is the successful business man q product of the schools, or of national life and environment? Until recently it was widely held that the business man was born, not made or, if he was made, that he made himself. A less crude form of the same doctrine was that he was hammered and polished into shape by the wear and tear of business life. This, no doubt, is true, as far as it woes. As Sidney Webb has pointed out, the actual training of the English business man is the finest in the world; what is wanted is q high CT standard of instruction in our con- mercial recruits.
 This lack of education, and more es- pecially of general education, is due in England, according to MT Ware, to tue lack of national system of education. Our great rivals, Germany and Amer ica. have each built up, after their own fashion, truly national system of cd ucation. The Prussians who have served as model for the art of Ger many, were actuated by that suprein- est of all motives, material salvation. The debacle at Jena made them real ize that real national system of edu- action for all classes and all creeds was the only way of regenerating, re- habilitating and consolidating the lla- ton. In the States the motive power came not from without, but within The Americans early realized that democracy must be protected against itself by developing the national brain and the national conscience, and this alone could be compassed by the in- stitution of thoruugh-going system of popular edtIca tion-"from the gutter to the university ''- London Chronicle.

HER REFERENCE.

One servant girl on Long Island has a reference that should readily secure her employment if she ever decides to leave her present position. But she won't decide to leave if the family she now works for can help it.
 One afternoon q few days ago when her master was in the city and her mistress was visiting neighbors, man called and asked for the lady of the house. When the maid told him she was out he seemed greatly disappoinr- ed
 s'It's really very important" he ex- plained. Could you get me paper and a pencil? I'd like to leave a note"
 Certainly" said the maid. She stepped out on the stoop and rang the front door bell. The cook came to the door.
 Paper, envelope and a pencil for this gentleman said the maid.
 The man wrote his note and sealed it. After telling the maid to be sure to see that her mistress got 1t the minute she returned, he left. That evening when the woman of the house had read the note and heard the cir cumstances under which 1t was de- livered, she smiled and handed 1t to her maid.
 Jane" she said, you may keep this. It may do as reference some time"
 This is what the man had written :
 Dear Madam-Your maid ia no fool"

EMPLOYER AND EMPLOYE.

Every employer appreciates faithful ness and reliability. and soon learns 10 know those whom he can trust ana those he cannot. No matter whether he has seen clerk shirk his duties CT not if he is a shirker, he instinctlveIy feels it. This is perfectly natural, ana quite in keeping with the manner m which we estimate those with whom we come in daily contact. There are many who. though they may not lie 10 or deceive us. yet because they ha- bitually do these things, we instinctlve- ly distruct them Something tells HIS that they are not quite reliable. Tn the same way an employer reads ihe character of his employees. He knows those who will shirk, when they get an opportunity; he can pick out those who will work while they feel they are being observed. but who will daw- dle when the masters eve is not upon them. and are not absolutely reliable. A laborer who will not under any cir- cunstances. neglect his work, who Is faithful to his duty, whether his em- blower is around or not is always ap- preciated. Absolute reliability in an eniploye is indispensable. if he expects to advance No employer likes to be surrounded with those in whom he lacks confidence. He wants to feel that. whether he is present or absenr, tho work will go on just the same; that if anything. his assistants will try to be mora faithful when he is away. John E.
