As he sells hats, or shoes, OF groceries.

the American clerk will have more con
tent if he reflects on his advantage over
kis fellow in other countries. OF
course, he gets more pay. OF course,
the scale OF his living is notably higher.
OF course, he has greater opportunity
for selt-advancement. But these ad-
vantages are not all. 1t Is worth while
to note that he has one-part working
day.
