The Power to Please

If you wear a bulldog expression.
lif you go about looking sou and dis
+, agreeable, you must not wonder that
you are not popular with your en-
|ployees. Everybody likes pleasant
faces. We are always looking for
the sunshine. and we want to get
iaway from the clouds and gloom.
If you want to be popular you
must assume a popular altitude, and
above all, you must be interesting.
If people are not interested in you.
they will avoid you. But IL you can
fling sunshine about you in every d.
rection, sc that people will cross the
street to meet you. instead Of trying
Ito avoid you, you will have no diff
Iculty in becoming popular.
The great thing to draw people to
you is to make them feel that you
are interested in them. You must
be really interested in them or they
will detect the deception.
: Nothing else will win the heart OF
a young person to you so quickly as
making him feel that you take a
igenuine interest in what he is doing,
and especially in what he is going
to do in the future.
If you avoid people, you must ex-
ipect them to avoid you; and If you
always talk about yourself you will
find that people will move away from
lyou. You do not please them. They
want you to talk about them, to be
interested in them.
The power to please is a great
success asset. 1t will do for you
what money will not do. 1t will often
give you capital which your financial
assets alone would not warrant. Peo-
I; pie are governed by their likes and
dislikes. We are powerfully in1u-
enced by a pleasing, charming per-
%sonality. A persuasive manner is
often irresistible. Even judges on
the bench feel it's fascination.

Green Boy Becomes Manager

I have in mind the case of a young
fellow who entered the employment
'of a mercantile house as an Office
boy. He was tall and lanky, and as
green as any country boy could be,
and he was made the general butt of
Jokes and careless jests. For the first
few weeks he went home every night
vowing he would stand the abuse
no longer. but in the morning he
went back with grim determination
to stick it out. This determination
was due largely to the encourage
ment of a single employee of the es-
tablishment, who, of all the clerks
and workers there, was inclined to
be friendly and considerable.
Today this tall and lanky youth
is the manager drawing $4,000 a
year, and the man who befriended
him is assistant manager. 1t was
something more than chance that got
the assistant manager his job. If 1t
had not been for the fact that he
was thoughtful and diplomatic to-
ward the country boy, somebody else
might have his fine position today.

thing looks favorable for CLEARING up

there will be enough cash on hand
for active operations until the close
of next year, AID by that time it is
believed that a portion of the land
west of the river can be disposed Of,
especially in Butte and Meade coun-
ties, and enough secured to complete
the buildings without drawing upon
the optional appropriation made for
that purpose.

Deafness Cannot BE Cured

ky local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion Of the
ear. There is only one way to cure
deafness, and that is by consti.
tutional remedies. Deafness is caused
by an inflamed condition of the
mucous lining OF the Eustachian
Tube. When this tube is inflamed
you have a rumbling sound or i'm
perfect bearing, and when it is
entirely closed. deafness is the result.
and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to
its normal condition. hearing will
be destroyed forever; nine cases out
OF ten are caused by cata1rh, which
is nothing but an infamed condition
OF the mucous surfaces.

FENCED THE CEMETERY
araceland Cemetery is Now Enclosed
With a Neat Wire Fence With
an Imposing Gate.

The surroundings at Graceland

by the addition of a neat wire fence
which encloses the entire cemetery

the direction of j. M. Erlon and he

it Is put up In such u way that it
will last for a good many years With.
out the necessity for repairs. At
the entrance to the cemetery has
been erected a very attractive iron
gate, with side entrances for pedes-
trians. The posts are set In cement,
giving them solidity and premanency.
Alderman Reeves of the cemetery
commmittee, drove US out to the
cemetery Friday evening and gave
us an opportunity to see the sur
roundines. He said that the fence
would cost about S7OO.s
The cemetery grounds are in fine
shape, and kept so through the good
work Of Sexton Quinn, a young
Englishman, who evidently takes a
pride in his work. The grass over
the extensive grounds has been cut
and raked up clean and the same air
of cleanliness is noticed over the
entire cemetery. The Ladies' Gene
terry Association Is entitled to much
consideration in the improvements
that are constantly being made and
for the manner In which the work
is being carried on. And 1t is very
proper that the home Of the dead
should ne kept up in the manne in

WHO'LL Be BOSS TOMORROW
Perhaps the Man That Works Beside
You; Pays to be Friendly With
Fellow Employees
(By Edward M. Wooley)

1t is good policy for workers to
treat their fellow workmen in the
light of future bosses. Shifts of for
tune often put men in unexpected
places. and it pays e man to be on
friendly terms with as many persons
as possible.
John Smith was a conceited sort of
fellow. who believed in speaking his
mind freely. ga spades a spade" he
used to say, "and there isn't any use
trying to make it anything else" He
was arrogant and ~quarrelsome, and
there scarcely "a a man in the shop
who liked him. He was free in ex-
pressing his own dislikes, and many
a man came in for a tongue flashing
Smith, it goes without saying, was a
big man physically, or he could not
have talked as he did.
, One day something went wrong
and a dozen men at the factory were
laid off, Smith among them. In a
group they went to another factory
to apply for work. AS it happened,
the foreman at this place turned out
to be a man who had worked under
Smith a year or two previous. He
had been the subject of frequent ridi-
Guile at Smiths hands, and now Smith
was placed in the humiliating posi-
ton of applying for work to his form
er inferior and enemy. He didn't
get the place.
Has Enemies in Every Shop
In making his rounds in search of
employment Smith discovered that a
dozen men whom he had known as
journeymen mechanics were holding
good jobs in various shops, either as
superintendent, foremen, or assist
ant foremen, and in every instance
he had incurred their enmity by his
sharp tongue and lack of foresight.
There wasn't one of them who would
give him work.
: In the course of time Smith Sc
cured a place at a factory in the SUI
burbs of Chicago, where he wasn't
known, but it will not be long before
he will make fresh enemies to add to
his already long list. Each time he
gets out of work he finds it more
and more difficult to get another
place.
In all branches of labor the same
thing holds good. The men who are
in inferior positions today are the
men who will hold the executive Jobs
tomorrow, and it is we'll not to lose
sight of that fact. The man who
looks down on an inferior and makes
fun of him would better beware,

GOT The EXHIBIT READY
Rapid City's Mayor Turned His Hand
as an Expert in Arranging Min
ing Exhibit.

ASh SO
we're in Mitchell during the week of
the corn palace, nave got back TO
thei1 home town. ami the Rapi.. t';ly
journal has something very encour-
aging about the corn palace project.
Concerning the visit Of Mayor EN-
rick to Mitchell, the Journal shows
how the mayor came to the rescue
and saved the mining exhibit from
being placed in a position that would
not be advantageous to the industry
in that part Of the state:
THE mayor pulled of his coat and
went to work to place the specimens
in position for exhibition, and by
Monday noon he had completed his
task. On the opening Of the corn
palace the Black Hills mineral ex-
hibit at once attracted the crowd and
the remainder of the time he remain
ed at Mitchell the mayor felt glad
that he had taken hold Of the matter
and arranged the display He stated
to a reporter that before he under
took to place the exhibit, he did not
feel that he was a competent miner
ialologist, but before he had con
Guided his task he came to the con-
clusion that he was an expert and
competent to explain and nswer the
many questions fired at him by the
|sight-seers that thronged the build
ing. Had the mayor not gone to
Mitchell it is certain that the Black
Hills mineral exhibit would have re-
NAMED unpacked, as they were ship
ped from Huron without a label in
any of the boxes to show where the
ore was from, but after making a
careful study the mayor grouped the
various ores of the Hills in classes
by themselves so that the display
was one of the principal attractions
at the corn palace.
"The mayor and his wife returned
home ove the Milwaukee road and
it required three days to make the
trip from Mitchell home, the first
day going to Chamberlain, where
they remained over night, the next
day going to Kadoka and after spend
ing a night there they reached home
the third day. The mayor stated
that 1t would require some time fol
the Milwaukee to get their road bed
in condition for fast running and af-
tier all the trip west of Kadoka
Through the bad lands was we'll worth
the slow time that was made over
that portion of the road, for in his
opinion no grander scenery can be
found anywhere than can be seen
from the railroad through the Bad
LANDS.

NEW YORK BANK STATEMENT.

NEW YORK, June 29.-The Financier
says:
Last weeks official statement Of the New
York Associated Banks showed. as was
expected from the preliminary estimates.
q urge reductionsin cash. but, because Of
the contraction in loans: and the loss Of
cash. and consequently the decrease in de-
posits, the reserve requirements were suffi-
GENTLY reduced to enable a fair amount of
surplus to be disclosed. The cash decrease
was $6S5490O. This was somewhat below
the amount that had been withdrawn from
the banks as the result OF gold exports,
transfers Of funds to San Francisco and
shipments to Canada, but the average sys-
tenn. may account for the discrepancy. De-
posits decreased $14, $4,000; this amount
closely agreed with the sum of the contrac-
ton In loans and the loss of cash. and,
therefore, the statement made a good
proof.
The required reserve against general de-
posits was reduced s., 737. 575, deducting
which from the loss Of cash left $3,117,-
325 as the decrease in surplus reserve to
$2.509,2 Io. Computed upon the basis of de-
posts. less those Of $31 ,275 200 public funds,
contracted by 1913, 7CO; this was probably
due to resumption Of loaning by trust COM

largely to reduce their loans.

Comparisons OF loans by individual banks
show that eight institutions reduced this
item by $S.50O,OOO net: six banks lost S. 500, :

bank statement of the week was affected
by the operations incident to the half-year
settlements and also by the large exports
of gold to Europe; such deranging factors
have now been eliminated. and most likely
more normal conditions will be restored

LONDON MONEY MARKET.

Special cablesram to The Star.
] LONDON, June 29.-Within few days
there has come remarkable change in the
financial situation. All the markets q
week ago had reached point of depres-
sion unknown to the present generation, a
condition such as only a general war or
an equally great calamity could adequately
explain. This had gradually come about
when trade was good and the country on
the wtoe was prosperous.
There Is now substantial evidence of an
Improvement and of returning confidence.
There are two visible reasons for this. One
is the announcement that the kais will
visit the king at Windsor Castle in No
vember. This is interpre ed to mem tfat
evils need be apprehended from a dis
turbed European situation in the near
future. The other reason is the govern
ments announcement that there will be no
attempt to float a Transvaal or other pub
tic loan during the present year.
The financial world sees in this an indi-
cation that the embellishments gov
ernment has at last awakened to the e.
fects of it's reckless treatment of the bust
ness interests of the country, and that
it VIII r-strain perhaps some of its social
Consols. therefore, bounded up a point
and a half and there was corresponding
Improvement in all sections of the market.
The'public Is still quite aloof but as soon
as it has regained confidence there will
be a substantial revival. for there is plenty
of money lying idle The deposits in ten
London banks are now G14,OyUOOO greater
than they were a year ago.
The English estimate is that the Ameri-
can situation is improving. Thus an infiu-
entail authority says today:
The program of railroads and Industrial
corporations in America has perforce been
curta:led owing to the impossbility of rails
ing the money involved, and only the most
essential improvements will be carried out
for the time being. Hence what threatened
to result in general breakdown Of credit
in the United States an outcome Of over
trading looks like being averted, at all
events for the present.
Since the fall in stock exchange values
recently has been heavier In American Sc
curities than in any other group, and since
1t was in that quarter that the most nerv-
Gus alarm was felt, many good judges be-
lieve that the principal recovery in the i'm
mediate future Will come from the other
side Of the Atlantic

SITE FOR MOTOR FACTORY.
Carter Corporation Changes From
Berwyn to Hyattsville.

At recent meeting Of the board Of d.
rectors of the Carter Motor Car Corpora
ton it was decided to reject all bids re-
ceived for the construction of the proposed
factory at Berwyn. Md, and to build the
plant under the direction of their engineer
and supervising architect upon a site Sc
cured at Hyattsville, Md. By reason Of
the closer proximity to the city. and the
larger area of the tract of land offered and
taking into consideration the more advan-
tageous shipping facilities and general ac-
feasibility afforded. 1t is explained. the d.
rectors deemed the change Of location as
highly expedient. Work Of construction is
now in progress. Material Is being pur-
chased in the open market in both this city
and Baltimore
1t is the purpose Of the Carter company
to construct their eastern factory upon the
colony plan, which will comprise. original
ly, group of three substantial buildings Of
brick and steel construction. each building
to be approximately 6Ox2OO feet and de-
signed to accommodate the individual de-
partments for the manufacture of the prod
uct. The buildings of the initial group
alone VIII cost approximately $4,000, and
when the necessary machinery has been
installed the cost Will be more than $780, 900.
Upon the completion of the three build
ings additional ones will be constructed,
until the entire plan for the factory has
been finally finished. The plant when COM
pleted will have cost more than $1,000 600
The equipment will consist of the most
modern and improved machinery securable
and the establishment, it is claimed, will
rank as the most complete automobile fac
tory in the world. The capacity as to the
finished product will be more than 1900
automobiles annually, representing a total
commercial value of more than S9.O00,O0O,
not including the additional estimated rev.
enue from the manufacture and sale Of the
numerous auxiliary appliances for the
automobile trade generally. The course of
the production. it is added. will afford
steady and remunerative employment for a
large force of skilled mechanics and work.
