There was man in town the other

for 500 month, says the Atchison
Globe. He now receives q salary of
$4,000 a year, and he doesn't work as
hard as he did when he lived in At
Gibson.
This man is no great genius: he is
simply good man." and there are
thousands of such. Being a good
man" means that a. man is Industrious.
loyal, intelligent and well-behaved. It
is easier to be "good man" than II
is to be bad one There is
scarcity Of good men," and those who
are patient and work away the best
they can are always recognized and
substantially rewarded. The man
who never does his share, who is will
ing to impose on his ONCE or shop
associates. never comes to the front.
The point we desire to emphasize
Is that it is easier to be 4 good man"
than it IS to oe bad one You must
live, so why not live in the easiest
way? The easiest way is to be a
good man. That is, to do your work
faithfully, intelligently and honestly
and treat yourself and others right.

support in an unusual way. He pays
his pew rent al right, but he has 4
rooted objection to dropping a coin
in the collection plate. No matter
whether the contribution is for church

into the plate as a way Of getting even

when the collection is counted
all the bad coin is picked out and
given to the treasurer of the church.
Some Sundays there is a good deal
of it. It seems as though men and
women who have Canadian dimes and

nominations and money that was
never made in the mint feel justified
in dropping it into the collection box.

How Swift Was Sold.

An amusing affair happened once
between a coal dealer and a Mr..
Swift Of Boston. The latter was very
anxious to see that the former did
not cheat him, so ne-the purchaser
inspected the weighing of the coal
himself and felt perfectly satisfied
that he got his allowance, without any
desire on the part of the coal dealer
to share. However, while the coal
was weighing, the driver of the team
could not help laughing, aware at the
time that the purchaser was particu-
lar about the full weight of the coal.
Mr.. Swift, noticing the laughing driv-
er, asked him what it was all about.
So the driver told him.
why" said he, when your coal
was weighed you we're standing on
tho scales and weighed with it,"
rs it possible? Why, I weigh near
ly 200 pounds!"
"Well, SIR" said the driver, you
are Sold"
"Yes," was the reply. land I have
bought myself, too"

What Fatigue Really u

Tiredness is as natural q condition
Of life as is the ability to perform
work, writes Andrew Wilson In the
illustrated London News. It is ma
lures signal that rest and repose are
necessary in order to 1ecuperate the
vital powers. Think for Z moment of
the supply Of nourishment (Which
means the giving of energy or tho
power Of doing work') to any part.
The healthy frame receives it's due
quota Of food materials, and out of
them builds up it's substance and OBJ
tains its working power. But the
supply of energy is not constant.
Hence, after a certain exhaustion of
the store it originally possessed, the
human engine demands more coal and
water. Fatigue is tn sign.manual
which authorizes the II ssh supply.

Puzzle for Post Office Clerks.

Cleverness is one of the attributes
necessary for every man who is en-
ployed in the post oflce sorting mail,
for he meets with all kinds of freaks
in the shape of letters peculiarly ad-
dressed. Some jokers appear to think
that all the postal clerk has to do is
to solve puzzles.
Recently at the Boston Office a let
ter was received addressed wood.
Mass" with line drawn under the
Wood" and over the Mass" The
letter went out the same day it was
received and reached Mark Under
wood, Andover, Mass, for whom it
was intended, and the postal clerk
who solved the riddle did not think he
had done anything brilliant. It was
all in his days work.
