not much variation in these pictures. de-

far as can be ascertained. there is no
thought of striking among the members

His observation had been that when

health.
A mechanic, who has a little shop
he has run for many years, is some
times tempted to close it because 1t
pays him SO little. My advice to him
has always been that he could afford
to run 1t for his health. Were he to
stop his work he would lose his diges-
tive power and then his energy. He

SICKNESS AND YOUTH.

The young person with poor health
has the sympathy of the writer be-
cause twenty years ago he was In the
same condition.
There is an age in ones growth
where depression of life's forces puts
one beyond the influence of drugs,
travel. recreation and the help OF
friends.
Should a little strength be gathered
and hope return. unconscious careless
ness wastes the strength and scatters
the hope. till time comes when this
temporary improvement has been Sc
cured and lost so many times. it is
looked upon with doubt whenever it
returns.
The encouraging and educating of a
young person with continued poor
health is a department in personal sci
ence. How to think in time to save
strength is mental preventive medi-
cine. How to grow a substantial en-
thusiasm that will not be displaced by
any common emotion or temptation. is
a study in self-control.

up again and again If any interest is

Find Ancient scotch eridoe,

Laborers engaged in digging a
trench for the new drain along the
White Sands recently disclosed an
arch, pier and buttress of the Old
Bridge, which tradition says was first
erected at Deverogilla, though in 1920
it was reconstructed after having been
wrecked by the flood. At much later
period, when the New Bridge was built
and Buccleuch street opened up
through the Castle Gardens, and the
level of the old Sand Beds raised over
which the river used to spread, some
of the arches of the Old Bridge at the
Dumfries end were buried by the road
being brought over them. 1t is one of
these, the one next to the bridge as it
is now seen, that was disclosed. 1t is
in good preservation, except that the
crown of the arch. which is only about
foot and a half below the level of
the pavement. has been broken

GAIN SOME EVERY DAY.

Though we may know everything TO
be known about our work we will con-
tinue to make mistakes unless we keep
clear headed. earnest, strong and
knowing more about ourselves every
day.
Any kind of valuable information on
any kind of useful subject will help
some one somewhere, at sometime.
to beo,me more accurate.
The every day easy errors are due
to discontinued study. lack of self
contrd, Indifference. poor memory and
wandering thoughts.
The growing of greater ability is
more useful to the employees than to
the employers. but it is OF sufficient
interest to the employers to have them
encourage the collection and exchange
of information on such subjects as
have leen mentioned. When we read,
think pr work we should try to secure
usefulthoughts for others.
While it is claimed that customers
make three timess sas many errors as
emplor res. the desire for greater accur-
acy should not be diminished among
the employees on that account

THE sALARiED PARTNER.

When civilization lifted the indus
tries from slavery into salary a great
gain was made for individual liberty.
While many in the past have been,
some in the present are and a few in
the future will be born to be owned"
by employers because they are lack
ing in financial intelligence and there
fore are commercial children, yet the
best employer is the businesslike-in-al
things person, and the best employe
is the one who works for the employer
the same as the employer works for
the customer.
The ideal employe is not an en-
ploye in the sense that word is used,
but a seller of time. skill and earnest
ness, and really becomes a partner on
salary and an annual dividend de-
pendent on conditions.
Many employees remain longer with
some firms and become more success
ful than some partners. Where an
employer in place of increasing an
employees salary has given the en-
ploye an annual sum dependent on
work and profits the plan has been so
sutStoSiti that ooihp tdoto tiii-
ployes have asked for reduction in
salary and an increase in the annual.
The best employe works for the en-
ployer at whatsoever with a concen-
trated energy. In place of seeking
other places. other places are seeking
this employe. Such employees never
think about getting in line" because
they are in line and know that to get
out of line is to murder their own
ability, which is their stock in trade
They do as they would be done by.
They 'speak we'll" think well" and
stand by" their employer.
What interest in a firm does an en-
ploye have who draws a salary of
nine dollars a week? That means an
investment of over nine thousand dol
lars at five per cent interest. II it had
not been for brains, money and hard
work of others what would an en-
| pl0ye have to do to earn nine dollars !?
| know of case where an Office boy
gets a salary larger than the income
Of q man and his wife and grown-up
son with ten thousand-dollar invest
ment. The office boy is bright and de-
voted to his work. but he does not
work very hard, while the three peo-
pie mentioned do work very hard. The
good side for the three hard workers
is that they respect their money and
make dimes do the work of dollars.
For all l know that office boy makes
good use of his money. l know that
some do not, and you know that a

this special boy may be caring for
a mother and sister or educating the
brother or helping ais father get out

well and hope better and be cheerful
and constructive.

STUCK STAMPS.

The boys have been told that they
were to be written up
They are running n retail store. and
are honest. hard-headed fellows.
Put they have few things to learn.
Their success is almost positive be-
cause they take suggestion good
naturedly and are willing to profit by
others hints.
They are in business for money, hon.
estly If they can get it SO. and CLOSE
up shop" is not honestly obtainable.
They are weak on pipes. Both of
them like to get in the rear of the
store and pull their old tobacco stove
Smoking is their only vice that know
but they are losing money by it, more
money than they put into pipes and
tobacco.
That is enough in that direction.
About stuck stamps: They got an or
der by mail and the distant customer
put in about 200 postage stamps.
The weather was damp and hot and
when the boys got the order the
stamps were very friendly. The post
office would not exchange good ones
for them SO the stuck ones were sent
back
They did not again hear from that
customer and the chances are that
they never will.
Now. there is man near them who
does more business in one day than
they 10 in six months and his mail
clerks never send back stuck stamps.
They soak them apart. dry and use
them.
In the business world. to have a
growing trade and please the various
kinds of people, one must do his own
duties well and often do the work
that belongs to others. A good busi-
ness man does more than his part, and
does it cheerfully.
