IT PAYS TO KNOW How. ~
John Sharp Williams Tells the Where
fore Of Big Salaries.

Half q dozen southern members
were gathered in a Democratic cloak
room of the house of representatives
at a recent session of congress, swap
ping yarns and discussing politics and
subjects of world interest generally.
when some one observed:
1t is remarkable to what great
magnitude the fees OF successful cor
poration lawyers attain nowadays. In
nine cases out of ten the attorneys
render only IA few moments of serv-
ice; yet they are paid therefor enor-
nous sums of money
John Sharp Williams, the Democrat
ic floor leader. nodded in assent. The
solution Of such an extravagant situa-
tion," he replied, rs in the fact that
while the lawyers may render but
slight service, apparently specifically,
their work is founded on such solid
ly founded knowledge base that their
counsel is worth the money, and per-
haps more.
Il can illustrate better by telling
you of an experience l had down in
Jackson. In my home town, with
plumber had called in to repair some
water pipes in the Kitchen. | had at
tempted to fix 'em up, and had worked
hard an hour or two, getting my
clothes grimy. mutilating thumb and
incidentally my reputation for chaste
speech; but all to no success. Finally,
when l had exhausted myself and
qualified a suit of clothes for the
cleanser. l decided to call In the
plumber.
The plumber looked at the pipes
wisely for a moment, reached for his
hammer, struck the offending tubes a
healthy stroke or two, then passed
the amenities of the day and walked
out. The next week l received bill
for S10.25. l thought the charge ex-
orbitant, and told him so.
lts too much for such simple
job demonstrated. Anyhow, where
does the 25 cents come in? It's a
funny looking bill, and | don't under
stand 1t. Suppose you itemize the ac-
count 80 that | can understand?'
He said he would, and the follow
ing morning l received this: To fix-
! ing pipes, 25 cents; to knowing how to
fix same, $40.
Il paid the BILL" continued Mr.. Will
liams. That man knew his business.
