ously observe, thou shalt perceive that Il
great part of life fits from those who do
evil, Il greater from those who do nothing,
ami the whole from those who do not siC-
compliSh the business which they think
they are doing.
Thousands of men fancy they are full
filling their duty to their employers and
to their tasks by keeping hours and per-
forming Just enough to hold on to their

more would be to give larger service than
their compensation required They object

The Decrease in Salt.

The latest government statistics
state that the United States produced
1S.96S.0S9 barrels of salt during the
year 1903 This is the smallest output
since 1898. and shows that the use or
salt is decreasing. This is probably
due to the recent disclosures of emil
nent scientists that people eat TOO
