Ell1S O. Jones, Tn success Magazine
 What do you mean by a captain of industry?" asked the Man from Mars. Has 1t something to do with the mill itary?"
 "'No," replied the editor "A captain of industry has nothing to do with the military except indirectly; that Is, ex- cept as he finds the military useful in assimilating new markets and old prod ucts-such as embalmed beef and tFie like No, a captain of industry is a man whom we select to run our in- dustries"
 Indeed" returned the Man from Mars. That must be quite an honora- ble position. Does he pay you anything for such high privilege?"
 The editor had difficulty in keeping back smile. Hardly" he replied. "On the contrary. we pay him we'll or rath- CT he charges us well, for the honor thus forced upon him.
 You say you pay him?'
 Well. of course we do not pay him in the form of wages. We pay him in the corm of profits"
 That is new system to me- said the Man from Mars, interestedly. How does it work?"
 "Oh, it works all right" said the edi- tor, "so long as the captain of industry can find markets to dispose of his sur plus product, for you know all his profit canes from the sale of the sur plus over and above what he pays to labor. Of course when markets fail he shuts up his plant"
 What happens them" pursued the Man from Mars
 'I would rather not talk about it. replied the editor. Tt might sound too pessimistic."

Among the broad-sehool humorists would probably be placed MT. Dooley (Pe ter Finley Dump. who has successfully worked the same for now more than 10 years. His two earlier books, MT Doo- ley in Peace and in War and MT. Doc ley in the Hearts of His Countrymen," were among the greatest discoveries ever made by an American publishing house. They now count among the classics of American humor, for which there is the same kind of continuous demand as for Mark Twains works or for Stockton s "Rudder Grange" Another of course, Is the versatile George Ade. In somewhat the same class. though of more variable talent Is the prolific Holman F. Day, who lives in Maine and writes books of verse about Maine people with a mission that mission being, according to a preface written for one of his volumes by his friend, Congressman Charles Littleffeld, to sell as many copies as possible 9th CT excellent humorists who belong with the testers rather than with the graceful essayists are, of course, Gelette Burgess of Purple Cow fame, whose Cage of Youth" and 'Viyette have, however, shown him in more subtle light Oliver Hergord, author of "The Bashful Earth quake." An Alphabet of Celebrities and other thrillingly funny productions; Charles Battell Loomis. cheerful optimist and popular lecturer as well as author. All these have at one time or other been hailed as great discoveries, and the re- ceipt of a manuscript from one of them is still an event in many editorial of fees.
 After MT. Dooley. perhaps the most re- markable and unheralded humorist of the past 10 years was George Horace Lori mer, whose Letters From a Self-Made Merchant to His Son" caught the popular fancy to an extraordinary degree, result ing in the sale of nearly half million copies of a book which is still among the good sellers. MT. Lorimer, up to the time of the appearance of his book had been known first as an excellent newspaper reporter, then as an accomplished editor but it was not realized that he had gifts entitling him to a plaee among the four most of American humorists.

HE DRlFTEp INTO vILLAINY.
Actors Usually Become Villains
 Through Force of Circumstances.

George Arliss in the New York Times. I did not ask to be a villain. I drifted into villainy. MT. Belasco Is perhaps mainly responsible for my depraved con dition, because he started me on. the downward path when he placed me hand in hand with "The Darling of the Gods" My experience is that an actor never chooses his line of business. Some men are very obviously suited for straight juvenile parts and nothing else; others are equally marked down by nature for the kind of character popularly know as the silly ass"
 These actors are likely to settle down into their line of business early in their careers. but the character actor becomes a villain by force of circumstances. He may remain a villain for years, then suddenly he will blossom forth into a perfectly sweet old gentleman with white hair and a granddaughter of whom he is equally proud. For years the character actor will play all kinds of parts and sooner or later-assuming that he Is good actor-he will be intrusted with good part. By chance the part Is villain.
 It is perfectly natural thing that when a manager sees him villain and good villain, he should say to himself: This man could play the villain in that piece am doing next season. or that the author, sitting in front, should say "Ah, here is the man who could do credit to my big scene" And so he drifts into vil- lains. If that part had been a clergyman and an equally good part (always assum- ing, remember, that the actor is 8 good actor), he might have played clergyman or similar parts indefinitely.
 By the time the character actor has attained a position that enables him to more or less choose his parts he as a rule Is a fairly good judge of the kind of thing he can do best. Then he seldom chooses villains because they are villains but because they give him better scope for acting than any other part. The will lain after all, is generally the most fn- teresting person in the play. He is always bent on getting something that every right-mnided individual thinks he has no business to have and 1t is interesting to see how near he comes to getting it; and it's getting more interesting as time goes on because you can never tell with authors nowadays-he may actually get 1t after all.
 My opinion is that the playing of any part, or line of parts, is likely to in- fuence the character and disposition of an actor in about the same ratio as the wearing of a red wig would in- fiuence the color of his hair.

Boston, December 5.-The rarest thing in the world. as everybody knows who knows anything about the literary mar kets, is new joke The next rarest is an old Joke so revamped that it looks new. The liveliest hunt among publishers of books and magazines today is for real humor.

Nearly empty, isn't 1t? That's my humor drawer. Any one who can help me to fill it is persona grata in this office
 The editor. like every other, had dis covered how rare genuinely funny writing is. To discover the humorous books with which the Christmas bookstalls are stock ed and the humorous articles which now and then occur In the magazines is the publishers most serious occupation.
