Piayina a Fool Game.

Never ask a man what he knows, but
what he can do. A fellow may know
everything that's happened since the
Lord started the ball to rolling and not
be able to do anything to help keep II
from stopping. But when man can
do anything he's bound to know some
thing worth while. Books are all right
but dead mems brains are mo good un
less you mix live ones with them.
1t isn't what mans got in the bank
but what he's got in his head, that
makes him a great merchant. Rob a
misers safe and he's broke, but you
can't break big merchant with Jim

would have to start again just where
he began-hoarding up pennies; the sec
ond would have his principal assets In
tact. But aecumulating knowledge or
piling up money just to have a little
more of either than the next fellow Is o
fool game that no broad gauged man
has time enough to sit in. Too much

After you've been married little
while you're going to find that there
are two kinds Of happiness you can
have-home happiness and fashionable
happiness. With the 1rst kind you get
q lot OF children and with the second
a lot of dogs. While dogs mind better
and seem more affectionate, because
they kiss you with their whole face,
I've always preferred to associate
with children. Then for the first kind
OF happiness you keep house for your
self, and for the second you keep
house for the neighbors.
You can buy lot of home happiness
with a mighty small salary, but fash
ionable happiness always costs just a
little more than you're making. You
can't keep down expenses when
you've got to keep up appearances
that is, the appearance Of being some
thing that you amt. You're in the fix
of a dog chasing his tail-you can't
make ends meet, and il you do it'll
give you such a crick in your neck
that you won't get any real satisfac-
ton out Of your gymnastics. You've
got to live on rump steak basis when
you're alone so that you can appear to
be on a quail on toast basis when you
have company. And while they're eat
ing your quail and betting that they're
cold storage birds they'll be whisper
ing to each other that the butcher
told their cook that you lived all last
week on a soup bone and two pounds
of hamburger steak. Your wife must
hog 1t around the house in an old
wrapper because she's got to have two
high on the bills and low on the
shoulders, and when she wears 'em
the neighbors are going to wonder
how much you're short in your ac-
counts. And If you've been raised a
shouting Methodist and been used to
hollering your satisfaction in good
hearty Glory or "Halleluiah!'
you've got to quit It and go to one Of

Then If you do have any children
you can't send them to a plain public
school to learn reading, writing and
arithmetic. because they've got to go to
fashionable private one to learn hog
Latin, hog wash and how much the
neighbors are worth. OF course the

When the Old Men Win Out
Il Isn't ALWAYS Safe to Turn Down -
Nan on Account Of His AGs

I've never taken any special stock IN
this modern theory that no fellow over
forty should be given a job or no man
over sixty allowed to keep one. OF
course there's a dead line in business,
Gust as there is in preaching, and If
tvs a good, convenient age at which
to draw it. But it's been my expert
ence that there are lot Of dead ones
on both sides of 1t. When a man starta
out to be a fool and keeps on working
steady at his trade, he usually isn't 60
ing to be any Solomon at sixty.
| learned long while ago not to
measure men with footruIe 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. II you were spending q
million a year without making money
and you hired young man he'd be
apt to turn In and double your ex-
penses to make the business shew q
profit. and he'd be mighty good man.
But If you hired an old man he'd prob
ably cut your expenses TO the bone and
show up the money saved on the profit
side, and he'd be a mighty good man
too. hire both and then set the
young man to spending and the old
man to watching expenses.
OF course the chances are that q
man who hasn't got good start at
forty hasn't got it in him, but you can't
run a business on the law Of averages
and have more than an average buEi-
ness. Once an old fellow who's just
missed everything he's sprung at gets
hts hooks in he's tiger to stay by the
meat course. And I've picked up two
or three of these old man eaters IN my
time who are drawing pretty large sal
aries with the house right now.-From
