SOMETHING OF q NUISANCE

Everybody's Magazine should be com
mended for announcing its purpose to fol-
low the example Of the Cosmopolitan and
one or two other periodicals in sending
their issues out with cut leaves. This
intolerable nuisance OF uncut magazine
leaves ought to be abated by all the pub
fishers OF such literature. It Is q waste
OF time incongruous with busy and
progressive age. The process OF cutting
leaves Is made more difficult by the twin
nuisance, the wire thread used in bind
Ing the magazines. The wire threads are
located 80 high UP in the margins that
magazines bound with them are con-
stantly flying out Of ones grasp and the
leaves viciously resist the cutting opera
ton. There are some periodicals In which
the wire system has been modified a little,
but as general thing the use Of the wire
thread is no credit to this progressive
age. Everybody's Magazine has kindly
adopted genuine Improvement in locat-
ing the page of contents on the first page
after the cover. The practice of crowding
many pages OF lads" after the cover and
concealing the page OF contents is very
reprehenSible. E

Many smaller enterprises are ruled by
tired men.
Every business man knows Of some

manager in his set who is always tired
These tired men are usually too proud and
too interested to acknowledge that they
are tired, and resign or take a long yaca-

getting out of the harness. They call 1t
work and it Is exhausting them, but, after
sll there is no keener delight in the world

high pressure. To pass from one task to
