Heart toHeart
Talks.
By EDWIN A..NYE.
HIS TWO TEMPTATIONS.

HIS TWO TEMPTATIONS.
Billy Robelon, brakeman on the
Long Island railroad, has two qualities
that go far toward making a human
suecess-namely:
He is honest and red headed
Billy's quality of honesty keeps him
on the straightway tracks, and his red
headed determination furnishes plenty
Of moter power for speed.
The other day he was suddenly con-
fronted by two great temptations.
He found a bagful of diamonds,
pearls and cash. The contents Of the
bag were worth $4,000.
That was temptation No. l.
And this is the way Billy Robelon
met it: He went straight to head
quarters and made every effort to dis
cover the owner, who proved to be
Mrs. Schwab OF New York, a very
wealthy woman.
Then the son of Mrs Schwab did a
fine thing. He gave Billy a bunch of
money and offered him lifetime job
working for Mrs. Schwab at 800 a
month.
That was temptation No. 2.
This was the situation: Robelon is
twenty-five years old and has a wife
and baby. That 500 a month life
time job looked good to him. 1t was
more money than he was getting He
might lose his job.
That was one side Of the problem.
He and his wife talked it over. He
wanted to get up in the world all right
but he wanted to get up on merit. by
his own efforts, which is the real heart
of every honest, earnest mans desire
Robelon refused the job.
Was he wise? In justice to himself
and his family was it right to refuse
Yes, Back of him were four years oi
honest service for his company. He
was In the line Of promotion. Ht
would try for the bigger stake.
In that choice Billy Robelon again
showed the stuff of which he is made.
He holds the triple guaranty Of sue
cess. He is honest, energetic, ambi
tious.
Some day he viii be division super
intendent or maybe traffic manage
and then-superintendent or presiden
of the road Just as sure as he live:
he will succeed.
He has already succeeded.
