The clerk Of today can be, and a
great many are, simply an automaton
or, on the other hand, he may be. a
live, brainy person, who is gathering
in information at every turn and inn
proving his usefulness by absorbing his
every chance to show the material Of
which he is made.
1t is clear in the minds Of the latter
class that il they would be better sales
men at the end Of the day than they
were In the morning, they must ever
be studying. With the former many
feel that they have been forced behind
the counter by severe circumstances.
and that they will take it easy until
something turns up The lack Of am
bition thus shown is deplorable and is
great stumbling block in the path of

Of place and that nothing will enable

the future, and lack of self-confidence
or healthy ambition, should speedily
be attended to, No sucn example as an
older association who has been in a
shop for untold years without passing
a certain mark should be followed. No
such feeling should be tolerated that
this fate is just as apt to be yours as
not, for such contemplation will often
result in a listlessness which will do
more to bring you to that stage than
anything else.
At the outset, get the idea firmly in
your head that your name is to adorn
some shop door and then keep that
shop door before you as a goal. If a
clerk will do this, he will consequent
ly bend every effort to attain the de-
sired end, and before long the conf
dence in his ability to accomplish it
will bring to pass the looked for re-
suit as surely as tomorrow comes

Marriane a Detail of Art.

It was Roswell Field who wrote in
1904 in the Chicago Evening Post:
MRS. Leslie Carter has been favoring
the public with some sprightly re-
marks concerning the stage and matri-
mony,. and has come to the conclusion
that marriage does not 60 well with
the artistic triumph. She believes
that to be really great actress a wo-
man must experience all the joys and
sorrows of life,' and she intimates that
the best way to get this experience is
through matrimony. In other words,
we suppose, marriage is merely part
of the theatrical education to. be TAX
en- like everything else, in its turn.
We are very glad to have this subject
so clearly calculated by. Mrs. Garter,
who presumably speaks for the pro-
fession, and who Eliminates cues
ton which has caused much comment.
Now we are beginning to understand
why our friends in the profession
glide so gayly in and out Of marriage.
It is a necessary part Of their BUSH
ness, a mere detail of art which the
really conscientious actor cannot neg

Some Scientific Bees.

Apropos Of nature taking, the fol-
lowing story, vouched for by no less a
person than M. CASTOR BONNER, and
set forth in the ultra-scientific couple
Renders of the Paris Academy of Sci
ences, is of interest. 1t has to do with
bees. M. BONNER placed in his gar
den several Jumps of sugar, The bees
tried to bite off particles with their
mandibles, but couldn't. He then
marked them, and they flew off to the
hive. In about two hours the first lot
came back, bringing some companions
with them. But before tackling the
sugar they few to fountain in the
garden and filed their crops with
water. Upon alighting upon the sugar
the water was pumped out, and soon
transformed the former into syrup.
when, of course, each bee filled his
crop" and started back for the hive.
From this two conclusions seem legiti-
mate-first, that bees understand the
principles of syrup making, and, Sec
ondly, that they can communicate their
discoveries to one another.

Islands plaque Of Rabbits.

Rabbits have Of late increased in
numbers so enormously in the north
ern portion Of the Isle of Man as to
constitute a menace to agriculture.
Yesterday the House Of KEYS
passed a bill having for it's object the
abolition of the pest. The bill treats
rabbits as vermin, and empowers &C.
cupiers of land to carry a gun with
out license for their destruction, and
to authorize other persons to carry
guns without license for a like pur-
pose.-London Standard.

ONE MANS WORK.
A South Sea island Transformed by
Missionary Activity.

Missionary Activity.
Some people assert, and perhaps be-
lieve, that there is no such thing as
disinterested benevolence. But the
history of the world contains very
many proofs of the contrary. There is
case of recent occurrence that
ought to settle the matter for all
time to come Fifty-five years ago
Hiram Bingham graduated at Yale,
being one of the class of 1853, which
has made itself felt in the world to
an unusual degree. He was born in
Honolulu, and his parents were
among the missionaries who changed
nation of cannioa1s into decent
Christian people in an incredibly
short time The son was chip off
the old block, and sought a field
where he could follow the example
of his illustrious father.
Five thousand miles southwest of
San Francisco lie the Gilbert islands
This man and his young wife went
there in 1857 and settled down to see
what could be done for them. The
jewellers in Apaing, the island they Sc
lected, were 10000 in number, and
were sullen, cruel and treacherous
lot, fond of war and also of eating
their prisoners.
Mr.. Bingham first reduced their
gibberish to tangible and written
form, and then gradually taught them
in that language, and by daily exam
pie, the ways of civilization and re.
ligion. He and his wife wrote vari-
GUS books for their use and instruc-
ton, including complete dictionary,
and won their love and confidence.
More than this, many of them became
teachers and missionaries themselves
to their people, and nearly all the in
habitants of that large island became
and are completely and radically
changed. All their heathenish Gus.
toms and beliefs are gone, and they
are as happy and contented race as
they formerly were wretched and use
less. Recently they celebrated the
semi-centennial of their reformation,
and among other interesting events
they prepared and sent to Mr.. Bing-
ham q touching and affecting tribute
of their appreciation of the man who
had rescued them out of a sense of
duty alone. His long residence in
that unhealthful climate had broken
him down, so that he was compelled
to return to Honolulu, where he still
lives in the happy consciousness of
having well served his Master and his
fellowmen, but without earthly reward
or the expectation of it. Here is an
instance of undoubted self-sacrifice
anddevotion to duty without hope of
reward. Such men deserve recogni-
ton and remembrance.-Cincinnati
Enquirer.

WHAT THE TRADE MARK MEANS
TO THE BUYER

Few people realize the Importance
of the words Trade Mark stamped
on the goods they buy. Ii they did
it would save them many dollar
spent for worthless goods and put a
lot Of INSCRIPTIONS manufacturers
out Of business.
When a manufacturer adopts
trade mark ne assun- . the entire re-
sponsibility for the merit of his pro-
duct. He takes his business reputa-
ton in his hands-out in the lime
light-''on the squa e. with. the buy
er of his goods, with the dealer, and
with himself
The other manufacturer--the one
who holds out Inducements, Offer
ing to brand all goods purchased with
each local dealers brand idesteps
responsibility, and when these infe-
rior goods come back" it's the local
dealer that must pay the penalty.
A good example of the kind of pro-
lection afforded the public by trade
mark is that offered in connection
with National Lead Company's adj
vertising of pure White Lead as the
best paint material.
That the Dutch Boy Painter trade
mark is an absolute guaranty of pur-
ity in White Lead is proved to the
most skeptical by the offer National
Lead Company make to send free to
any address a blow-pipe and instruc-
lions how to test the white lead for
themselves. The testing outfit is be-
ing sent out from the New York
Office of the company, Woodbridge
Building.

Quoted a SERIES of experiments on

throw doubt on the old theory that the
mind loses it's power to work as a
rubber ball loses its power to bound, :"
and that sleep charges the mind with
energy. On the contrary, this investi-
gator finds that the degree of Inability
caused by mental work is very much
less than has been supposed, and he
questions whether the results obtained
by investigators who have sought to
measure mental fatigue in school
children were not due to the use of
methods which did not measure the
inability, but did measure the dis
taste for mental effort.

One of the curious things that men
of science have discovered in their
innumerable efforts to measure and
map the earth with the least possible
error is the fact that there are places
where the direction of plumb line Is
not vertical. Irregularities of density
in the crust of the globe may produce
this phenomena. A remarkable in
stance has been found in the island Of
Porto Rico, where the deviation from
the vertical is so great that in map
ping the island, the northern and
southern coast lines, as shown on
the old maps had each to be moved
inward half a mile.
