The Secret of Mr.. Dukes Success.

"The straight road to c
is to learn to love your business" said
James Buchanan Duke, as I sat with
him two days ago. "a man must
love his business better than he loves
anything else if he would make sue
cess ure. 1t is the true, the only
way. We employ more than a hun
dred thousand persons in our vast
tobacco business, and as the director
of this force I,never fail to observe
that the man who works only because
he is paid to work has no chance in
competition with the man who works
because he would sooner do that than
anything else. 1t is the practical Sc
cret of success. This tobacco business
is my pastime, as we'll as my duty.
l never fish or hunt. Those things
NEAR hard work, and there isn't as
much fun in them as there is in bust
ness.
"A man can do best that which
he loves BEST" he said. eff he has
started in a business which he cannot
learn to love, then he should go in
to some other business. He will new
er succeed in this age of competition
unless he can find real pleasure in his
work. This making of money is not
a sufficient incentive. He must find
his highest enjoyment in the task
itself. No man who works along
that line can fail. That is my judg-
ment, based on my own experience
and my Observation-Disclosures Creel-

Took Him at His Word.

Many anecdotes show that Indians
have not been wanting in ca1cuIa-
ton and cunning in their dealings
with white people. Indeed, the pale
face, although superior in intelli-
gence and education, is often obliged
to look very sharp in order not to
become the, dupe of the crafty red
man. In "The Deserts of North
America" this anecdote is related:
An Indian, after hearing a preach
~er speak from the text, "Make vows
to heaven, and keep them," went up
to the preacher after the sermon,
and said:
81 have made a VOW to go~to your
house."
The minister was a little surprised,
but he smiled and said, "Well, keep
your VOW"
On arriving at the house, the In
dian seated himself, and after a time
remarked, II have made a VOW to sup
with YOU"
This was also granted, but when,
after supper, the Indian announced,
81 have made a vow to sleep in your
house," the minister began to fear
that there would be no end to the
VOWS of his attentive auditor.
"That is easy to do, and you should
keep your vow," he said. "I will give
you a bed. But" he added" "I have
made a vow that you shall 4ave to-
morrow morning" -
The Indian nodded. "Good" he
said. "You make my vows come
true; so I make your vow come true"
And the next morning he went away
in good humor.-Youth's Companion.

A chaplain's Pointed Prayer.

When Chaplain Russell, of the Mis-
souri, House,prays,he wants the MEM
bers to give attention. His prayers
being sent especially for them, he
thinks it unseemly for them not to
listen. Having observed that the
members did not attend to what he
said, Rev. Mr.. Russell waited the
following petition up to the throne
of grace a few mornings ago: 90,
Lord, I ask that those in the house
who rise to their feet for prayer may
not continue to read their papers
while the chaplain prays. Grant that
they may have some respect for God
if they have not for the chaplain"

One Place Left for General Grant.

At a recent meeting of Confed-
crate veterans in Richmond, many
amusing tales were told. One of
them was how General Grant got the
worst of it at the hands of a South
ern woman. The Baltimore Sun tells
the story:
While Grant was in Charles City
County an old lady sent one of her
grandchildren to him to ask where
he was going.
"Tell your grandmother" said
General Grant, "that I am going to
Richmond or Petersburg, or heaven
or HI"
In a little while the boy returned
and said:
"Grandmother says you can not go
to Richmond, for General Lee is
there; you can not go to Petersburg
for Beauregard is there; and you can
not go to heaven for General Jack
son is there"
General Grant very readily saw
that only one place was left to him
in case he wanted to go somewhere.

The Struggle for Life, or the Struggle
for the Life of Others.

The struggle between duty to self
and duty to others, or, as Clara E.
Laughlin puts it in the June De-
lineator, between the Struggle for
Life and the Struggle for the Life
of Others, is one that comes to thou
sands of young men and ONE with
impressive significance. Self-devel-
opment along chosen lines, or re-
nouncement and devotion to those
who may need you-is a question
that can be decided only by the indi-
Vidual; and whichever way he may
take, if he be guided by the best light
that he has, he will do all that is
expected of him. The two great
evils to be guarded against are: lest
the development of self make us sell
fish, or devotion to others make us
negligent of self. A "true balance"
should be aimed at.

Only a H~ousekeeper.

With the freedom of youth the
girls were discussing their elders. 1t
was not gossip, exactly, for the Sun
shine Club was preparing to give an
entertainment, and found it needful
to weigh the accomplishments of
friends in order to decide who should
be asked to aid. But the comments
were frank, if friendly, and Aunt
Eleanor, at workin the pantry, found
occasion to smile sometimes as the
gay voices ratified on.
"Mrs. Marston to- play u accom-
paniments, Mrs. White to sing, and
Mrs. Lee to read" finally summed up
one of the girls, a comparative
stranger in the town. GLOW about
that charming Mrs. Webb? She's so
sweet Pm sure she'd do anything we
asked her. What can she do 2"
There was a moment of silence.
Then, "I don't believe she has any
what you may call public gifts" one
of the girls answered. "She's a
heaven-born creature, as you say,
but she isn't a bit conspicuous out
side her family, and we think of her
just as a perfect housekeeper-only
a housekeeper."
Only a housekeeper-as If house
keeping were as simple a task as dig
cling a ditch! Aunt Eleanor's smile
was tinged with bitterness now, as
she thought of the things a perfect
housekeeper had to be and do.
Caterer, Cook, laundress, dress
maker, nurse, chambermaid, teacher,
milIiner, waitress,-these were only
a few of the trades that the house
keeper was expected to master, pur-
sue or direct,-and she must pursue
them all at once. She might have
a faculty for nursing or a taste for

That Strange Cheraw Epitaph.

That Strange Cheraw Epitaph.
Mr.. Clarence H. Poe, Editor of Pro
gressive Farmer, Raleigh, n. @.
Dear Sir:-Some weeks ago I saw
in your valued paper an epitaph
which was seen on a nameless grave
in Cheraw, S. c.:
MY name-my country-what are
they to thee?
What-whether high or low my ped
igree?
Perhaps I far surpassed all other
Perhaps [ fell below them all-what
then?
Suffice it, stranger, that thou seest
a tomb,
Thou know'st its use; it hides no
matter whom"
I enjoyed the train of thought
which this poem excited in your
mind, and thinking that perhaps
you and your readers would like to
know something further about this
singular epitaph, I take the liberty
of writing this letter to you.
The cpitaph is over the grave of a
Mr.. Robbins, who was a prominent
lawyer. Mr.. Robbins started out very
poor and walked across the country
from courthouse to courthouse. He
succeeded we'll, however, and when he
died he left an estate of about forty
thousand dollars to his widow and
two daughters. He and General Gil
Iespie furnished the money to edu-
cate the Rev. James II. Thornwell,
who turned out to be such an intel
lectuaI giant, and who afterwards
became president of Columbia Is. O.
College and of the Theological Semi
nary. DIR. Thornwell also wrote a
book on "Truth."

Town Board.
President of France.

Marseilles, April 13.-President Lou
pet arrived here today from Paris on
his way to Algeria after receiving con-
tinuous ovations along the route. The
presidential party was met by the civil
and military authorities and escorted
to the prefecture where an official re-
ception was held. A crowd, estimated
to number 300, 900 persons. packed the
thoroughfares and gave the president
an enthusiastic reception. A grand
banquet at Bourse followed the recep-
ton.
During the day M. Loubet made sew.
eral short addresses, mainly express
ions of his sturdy republicanism.
Only one minor disturbance is re-
ported between a group of socialist
a~gitators and a number of adherents
of the army. Blows were exchanged
and the police interfered; six persons
were injured, three rather seriously.
This was chiefly due to the dense
crowds and popular demonstration to
the president.

BASE BALL.
The Blues Defeated the Tigers in a
Close Game.

The Blues Defeated the Tigers in a
Close Game.
Despite the high wind which pre-
vailed yesterday afternoon a fair
crowd witnessed the Santa Fe Pacific
Blues defeat the Old Town Tigers in
a game of base ball by the close score
of IL to 10. 1t was a fair exhibition
of base ball with the exception of two
innings.
Chaves was in the box for the Tigers
and tossed pretty good ball, but in the
fifth inning when the Shoppies piled
up eight runs.
Boyce and Moore did the pitching
for the Blues. The Tigers hit Boyce
for nine runs in the four innings, but
Moore proved invincible. This was
Moore's second appearance on the dia-
mond in Albuquerque, and his perform
ance yesterday was very commendible.
He has a hard swift ball and uses ex-
cellent judgment in placing 1t.

sible for the players to judge a fly ball
and this Is partly responsible for the
big score.
