sure that everything was all right that
they became careless. There was q
bottle always standing On the desk In
the library that looked very tempting.
but the hole In the top of it was so
small that they had never been able to

IL must be good, and it was kept away
up ON the top OF the desk. and he had
heard the children forbidden to touch
It And every night he would keep on
talking about the good stuff in the bot

she borrowed the cot that belonged to

When the Old Men Win Out
II Isn't ALWAYS Safe 10 Turn Down q
Man on Account of His Ale

I've never taken any special stock in
forty should be given job or no man
over sixty allowed to keep one. OF
course there's Il dead line in business,
Gust as there Is in preaching), and If
TVS good, convenient age at which
to draw it, But it's been my expert
on both sides Of It. When man starts
out to be fool and keeps on working
steady ut his trade. he usually isn't go
ing to be any Solomon ut sixty.
! learned long while ago not to
measure men with footrule and not
to hire them because they were young
or old or pretty or homely. though
there are certain general rules you want
to keep In mind. If you were spending a
million year without making money
and you hired young man he'd be
apt to turn in and double your ex-
profit. and he'd be a mighty good man.
But II you hired an old man he'd prob
ably cut YOUR expenses to the bone and
show mp the money saved on the profit
side. and he'd be mighty good man
too. l hire both and then set the
young man to spending and the old
man to watching expenses.
or course the chances are that a
man who hasn't got good start at
forty hasn't got 1t in him. but you can't
Eun business on the law Of averages
and have more than an average bust

missed everything he's sprung Mt gets

meat course. And I've picked up two
or three of these old man eaters In my

aries with the house right now.-From

There are mighty few Young people
who go into marriage with any real
idea Of what it means. They get their
notion Of 1t from among the clouds
where they live while they are en-
gagged, and naturally about all they
find up there is wind and moonshine,
or from novels which always end
Just before the real trouble begins, Or,
If they keep on, leave out the chapters
that tell how the husband finds the
tent and the wife the hired girls. But
If there's one thing In the world about
which it's possible to get all the facts
It's matrimOny. Part of them are
right III the house where you were
born. and the neighbors have the rest.
It's been my experience that you've
got to have leisure to be unhappy.
Half the troubles in this world are
imaginary. and it takes time to think
them up But it's these oftener than
the real troubles that break q young
husbands back or young wife's
heart.
A few men and more women can be
happy Idle when they're single. but
once you marry them to each other
they've got to find work or they'll find
trouble. Everybody's got to raise some
thing in this world, and unless people
raise job or crops or children they'll
| raise Cain. You can ride three miles
| on the trolley car to the stockyards ev-
cry morning and find happiness at the
end of the trip. but you may chase it
all over the world in a steam yacht
without catching up with it. A wom-
an can find fun from the basement to
the nursery Of her own house. but give
her a license to CAD the streets and n
bunch of matinee tickets and she'll
/ find discomfort. There's always an
Idle woman or IN idle man in every
divorce case. When the man earns the
bread in the sweat Of his brow it's
right that tire woman shopld perspire

What the Kids lid For Alaesnon.

l remember a mighty nice, careful
mother who used to shudder when
slang was used in her presence. So
she vowed she'd give her son name
that the boys couldn't twist into any
low, vulgar nickname. She called him
Algernon, but the kid had pretty big
nose, and the first day he was sent to
school with his long lace collar and his
short velvet pants the boys christened
him Snooty, and now his parents are
the only people who know what his
real name is.-From 'Old Gorgon Ora
