FOR BUSINESS GIRLS.

When a business girl is a failure
the reason often is that she regards
the work she has taken up as only q
temporary thing-something to fill
up the years hal lie between leay-
ing school and the husband and
home that she hopes sooner or later
will fall to her lot. That is an ut
terly wrong principle. Even if the
chances are that the girl will marry,
she must work hard and gain all the
knowledge she can Of her calling. so
that, should marriage not come her
way, she may, instead Of developing
into a complaining old maid, become
an interesting and charming woman,
leading a busy life-too busy very
often to think much of self, but
never too busy to do a kind action
or help on younger women beginning
life.-Chicago Daily News.

How GOODWIN Losr HIs cAsE.
Young Lawyers First Chance Thrown
Away by Client.

President Forrest Goodwin, of the
Maine senate, is a young man, and it
is but a few years since he com
menced practicing law in his native
town of Skowhegan. He wanted a
criminal case where he could distin-
guish himself. He was one Of the
boys" and they were all trying to
help him along.
One day complaint was made to
the officers that a noted character
named Sewell Nutting was terroriz-
ing the lower part Of the town, and
with several boon companions was
holding meetings in an old house
down on the river road. The officers
gathered Sewell in and dispersed the
others.
The next morning, after sewell
had reduced the size of his head. he
sent for Goodwin to defend him.
The young lawyer was elated. Now
was his time. 1t was a small case,
but a good opener.
Judge Priest occupied the bench,
and assumed his most judicial coun-
.tenance. The state opened the case
by Z. F. Danforth, county attorney.
Goodwin's eyes flashed defiance at
officers. and states counsel.

Old Government Employees to Be

Year.

Washington, March THE old gov
eminent clerk, no matter what salary he
may be getting now is to be cut down
arbitrarily to 81 900 a year, for The sole
reason that he has reached the age Of
90 years it a provision in the legisla-
tive, executive and Judiciary appropria-
ton bill goes thru.
Inc committee on appropriations de-
clded to incorporate the provision in the
PHI. Investigation was shown that
$2,O00,000 a year is paid government
clerks here who are IS years Of age or
older. OF these class Of clerks II per
cent e9 receive more than $1,000 year.
Tho few hundred dollars more that
each OF the old clerks receive: represent
years of struggle and toll to gain a sal
airy upon which they could live and sup
port their families and they now see
their years of work going for nothing,
Many of these clerks are as efficient
II not more so than the college graduate
ct from p to 80 years of age, who are
filing up the departments. It is upon
these older clerks that the executive
heads of the departments depend for
preced Tents and methods of procedure.
Chairman Tawney of the committee
on appropriations is responsible for the
provision. He has been told by the
heads of the various departments that
they have superannuated clerks and Mr..
IaWney, instead of trying to have them
dismissed, determined upon the $1,000
salary for all over IS years.
