Value of Artistic Taste.

An applicant for position in sta
tionery and book store was questioned
but little as to experience. Instead
she was shown a variety Of fancy
cards, illustrated books and small pic.
lures and asked to pick out th0Se
which, in her opinion, were the most
artistic. Her taste was approved by
the manager. and he hired her.
1T is necessary in this store" he
said, "for a clerk to have good taste.
Fully one-half of our customers do not
know what they want. After much
rummaging around they at last pick
out three or four books or cards that
they like fairly well, but they lack the
judgment to make final selection
and appeal to the clerk to help decide.
There is where the necessity for dis
elimination on her part comes in. BY
choosing something really artistic she
gives general satisfaction and holds
our customers. New York Press.

The Stinay Man.

He went to the Christian Endeavor
meeting with two pennies, quarter
and dollar bill. He wouldn't put the
dollar in the envelope and really be-
grudged the quarter, but was perfectly
willing to give up the two coppers and
so placed them in the envelope.
The wife OF his bosom persuaded him
to put the quarter in another envelope,
and then he sat hoping that the basket
might not come his way. 1t didn't,
and so they went home, and on the
way they passed weighing machine
which took the two pennies.
He took the quarter out of the en-
velope also, throwing away the bits of
paper, and when they reached home
he found that he had thrown away the
dollar bill.-Columbu Dispatch.
