A Chicago man who has large
number Of employees under him has
posted in various departments Of his
establishment cards which bear the
above caption and the following terse
rules. These make it very plain what
he expects, and what he does not ex-
pect of those who draw salaries from
him:
Rule Don't lie--it wastes my
time and yours Pm sure to catch you
in the end, and that is the wrong end.
Rule Watch your work not the
clock. A long days work makes a long
day short and days short work makes
my face long.
Rule Give me more than ex-
pect and I'll pay you more than you
expect | can afford to increase your
pay if you increase my profits.
Rule 4--You owe SO much to your
self that you can't afford to owe any
body else Keep out of debt or keep
out OF my shop.
Rule 5-Dishonesty is never an acct
dent. Good men, like good women,
can't see temptation when they meet
it.
Rule 6-Mind your own business and
in time you'll have business of your
own to mind.
Rule don't do anything here that
hurts your self-respect The employee
who is willing to steal for me is capable
of stealing from me.
Rule Sits none of my business
what you do at night. but if dissipation
affects what you do the next day and
you do half as much as demand,
you'll last half as long as you hoped.
Rule o--Don't tell me what I'd like
to hear, but what l ought to hear. l
don't want valet to my vanity, but |
need one for my business interests.
Rule Io-Dont kick If | kick--lf
you're worth while correcting. you're
worth while keeping. | don't waste
time cutting specks out Of rotten
apples.

BUILDING Up 4 Speech.

Before making speech Charles
Dickens would decide on his various
heads and then in his minds eye liken
the whole subject to the tire Of a cart
wheel, he being the hub. From the
hub to the Ire he would run rs many
spokes as there were subjects to be
treated. and during the progress Of the
speech he would deal with each spoke
separately. celebrating them as he
went round the wheel, and when all
the spokes dropped out one by one and
ed he would know that he had accom-.
plished his task and that his speech
was at an end

Wild Beasts Kill Hundreds

The total number of persons killed
in the Punjab by wild animals and

the Lancet, S53, very slight Increase
over the number reported in 1907
Out of this number no less than g1s
died from the effects of snake bite
The Lahore district kept its position
at the head, of the list in number of
deaths from this cause. Kranga, as in
1901 was the only district in which
persons were killed by wild boars.
The total number OF wild animals
other than snakes killed in the
province in 1908 was 1888. an increase
of about 90 per cent over the figures
for 1907. The increase is due entirely
to the number of wolves killed (sS2J !,
which was unusually small in the pre-
dred and twenty-eight snakes were, it
appears, killed in 1908, says the West
minister Gazette.
The number of persons reported to
have been killed by wild animals in
the United Provinces during 1908 was
1914, as compared with 159 in the pre-
vious year and ESQ in 1906. The in
crease was largely due to the number

from snake bite decreased from $3.50 to
