THE SEARCH FOR MEN.
Positions of EmoIument Ever Open to
the Ruht Person.

The business world is looking for
men who can achieve results. All
others are hurriedly pushed aside. The
keen competition among employers
for high grade men is shown by the
frequent changes that are always be-
ing made in responsible positions. No
sooner does man make satisfactory
record than rival employers begin bid
ding for his services. The market
value of such men has risen with the
demand, and there are now several
men in the United States who are
receiving over 100000 per year,
scores who are receiving s50.O0 and
better, and hundreds who are earning
S25, 900 or more, while an unaccount-
able host are earning over $4,000,
writes H. J. Hapgood in Harpers.
To those who have not made a
study of this question the great de-
mand for high grade men and the
thoroughness of the search that is
constantly being made for them are
surprising. For the past eighteen
months Chicago concern has been
trying to find the right man for posi-
ton that will pay from $4,000 to $780,
900 a year. 1t is common expression
among large employers, Il would
rather pay 100000 than $1,000 to a
man." and they mean it. They want
men who can handle men, men who
can discover and stop business leaks
men who can abolish unnecessary
moves, find short cuts, consolidate
plants, make market where none ex
listed before, overcome competition
men who can make their years work
yield tenfold on the yearly balance
sheet. The manager OF large Ne"
York department house stated recent
", 1--WE are looking for five execu
tive men, to whom we are willing tc
pay from $500 to 10000 year
These positions are filled at present,
he added. "but they are not filed sat
isfactorily, and we are anxious to fine
better men,"

The Cusst and the Waiter.

A dainty stranger waited into the
dining room of hotel in Smith Cen
ter, Kan, the other day, and as the
chair was held back for him pulled out
his handkerchief and busted the seat
carefully. Pulling up his trousers. he
seated himself, wiped the knife, fork
and spoon with a napkin. worried a
few crumbs off the table and heaved q
sigh of relief. Without hesitation the
girl who stepped forward to take his
order deftly wiped the strangers
mouth, which had been drawn into
pucker of dissatisfaction at the imagin-
ary untidiness abounding, and planted
a kiss thereon that was plainly heard
in all parts of the room. The dainty
stranger when he recovered ordered
meekly, ate hurriedly and left quickly.

Judue Wilson's Speech at Nahant.

Judge Wilson's Speech az Nahant.
In a semi-centennial celebration at
Nahant, Mass, Judge j. I. Wilson,
in an address at the town hall, began
this way:
Il don't want to make any elaborate
speech. because when I was small
boy in backwoods town in Maine
they were holding a centennial cele.
bration. The most prominent citizen
was going to make speech. He
studied one for weeks beforehand, and
learned it all by heart, word for word
Then when the day came he got up on
the platform and began: A hundred
years ago this town was a bowling
Wilderness At this point he forgot
the rest, but bravely continued; AS
said before, 100 years ago this town
was a bowling wilderness and-er-l
wish to heavens 1t was now.

Down where the reeds bend IN the

That gladly flows upon It's way,
The lark still sings and still the gfeam
Is golden at the close of day,
And still the thrush that sang In May
Trills blithely in the young thorn tree,
But through the tall top of the pine
The wind blows sadly and the glee,.
That Hope once promised should be
mine
Ia lost and lost forever now
For. dear since you are silent. how
Can gladness come to me?
The doleful cricket from the grass
Proclaims impatient summers wane;
Our shadows lengthen where We pass,
And crooked backed old men co complain
And where. like billows of the sea,
The tall grain seemed to ebb and flow
The yellow stubbles are But. free
From any sadness man may know,
I'd hail the autumn's haze and scar
II you might break the silence, dear,
And whisper back to me.

Every housekeeper should know
that If they will buy Defiance Cold

ages, and the price is the same, 10

MONEY IN MAKING FANS.
Last Years Export from One Chinese
Port Valued at $500, 900.

The export of fans of several varie'
ties from the ports of Hangchau, prac-
tically all of which are of local manu-
facture, has assumed proportions
which merit attention. say United
State Consul Anderson. The value OF
fans from the port in 1904. as re
ported by the customs authorities, is
considerably over 100000 in gold
and this probably does not cover more
than half of the trade.
While the vast bulk of the fans thus
exported are rated as paper fans, most
Of them are known in foreign markets
as fancy goods. The fans above rated
as fancy" are silk creations OF more
