THE MAN WHO MAKES GOOD.
lBy John Alexander JayneJ.

You may not be able to distin

thousands OF hrs feiiow citizens. bu
the moment you step into the ONCE
where he is employed, the factory II
which he works, the church in which
ne preaches,r or the bedside by which
ne practices, you recognize him
once. Tes x
He may be little, insignificant
looking fellow, but there is a breezy
manner about him that compels at
tention. He may weigh like a Iaft
but you forget his obesity in his abil-
ity to make the wheels go round
He has a swing and step born onl.
of accomplishment. He IS neither
CAV. gaudy nor garrulous. He is
neither sleepy, SLOPPY nor shiny. lie
is manly, mannerly and methodlcal
He knows when, where and why. he
has the happy faculty of arriving
at exactly the right time and place
When he lands, he lands squarely
The man who makes good is mast
er of the situation; He is not com
PEELED to ask privileges or make apol-
ogies in order to hold his position.
He is not treated as an inferior by
those who hold more responsible
positions, paying larger salaries, for
these men know that he is using the
usual talents of mankind for the ac-
complishment of usual work. I'm
usual mental power unused does not
equal usual mental power used. The
man who makes good never whines!
act or work the sympathetic racket.
His work speaks for itself. 1t is
the testimony of the faithful fidelity
of a conscientious worker.
The man who makes good is not
content to rest on past accomplish
ment. Every act of making goOo
an incentive to further attempts il
the same direction. The past, there
fore, gives impetus in the present
and strength for the days that are to
come. s r-ts ~ -rs
The man who makes good is al
ways in demand He need not worry
about positions. II, through neces-
sity, he must make change, other
men in the same line are only glad
to give him employment. There Is
only one class of people who should
be compelled to hunt for work
these young men who have no; yet
had opportunity to make good and
show their worth to employers who
will appreciate their ability in the
work that is cOngenial 10 their tastes
The majority of men who knock
from pillar to post are men who have
failed to make good in the dav wheI
