of Q vacation does not deserve
one, for he has not ascertained
that II is work, and not vacations,
that makes life endurable.
The only man who can really
enjoy an outing is the man who
doesn't need it. And the man
who keeps his system SO strong
and well balanced that he doesn't
need q vacation is the one who
eventually will marry the pro-
prietor's daughter and have his
name on the sign. Before you
manage a business, you better
learn how to manage your cos
mos. However, this does not
mean that we never take q vaca-

how would we know the facts?

A SUBSTITUTE FOR GOLD

"More than S59, 900, 900 of act.
ual gold in the shape Of bars OF
coins has been shipped this year
from the United States to foreign
countries. The gold has gone
to settle up American debts or
trade balances.
ga Secretary of the Treasury
once suggested that there ought
to be a simple way to avoid the
actual transfer of gold back and
forth across the ocean. He rec
commended the use of an inter.
national clearing certificate that
should represent real metal and
which could be accepted in settle
ment for all debts between the
nations.
"That is the method banks
employ to adjust their debts
among each other. Every day
balances amounting to millions
are checked up and settled to the
last cent, but no gold changes
hands. There is kept in every
Clearing House ia the country a
supply of gold, and against this
gold in the vault are issued Clear
ing House certificates. These
are as good as the real metal
among the banks in the different
cities. They can be carried
easily and without risk of loss.
''It would not only be simple
but expedient for the nations to
employ similar gold clearing GER
tifcates and in that way avoid
the exports and imports of gold
with all the attendant risk, ex-
pense a nd annoyance. The
statesman who can bring about
this change which bankers gen.
orally recommend, viii establish
for himself lasting monument.

VACATIONS

There are three good reasons
why all employees should have
vacations.
One is SO that the employer
can see how easily anybod y and
everybody's place can be filed
the next is SO that when the
employe returns he can see how
well he can be spared, since
things go right along without
him the third is so the employe
can show the employer, and the
employer can understand that
the employe is not manipulating
the accounts or engineering deals
for his own benefit.
Many a defalcation could have
been avoided had the trusted
man been sent away two weeks
each year, and an outsider put
in his place.
Beyond these, s6o yaoation has
little excuse. AS a matter of
Erecuperation the vacation does
not recuperate, since, as a rule,
no man needssa vacation SO much
as the man who has just had one.
The man who is so run down that
he needs q vacation can never
adjust or reform himself in two
weeks. What he really needs is
to retransform his life.
TO work during the year at so
rapid pace that in August ones
vitality is exhausted, and a rest
is demanded, is rank folly. What
we all need is enough vacation
each day 50 that we can face each
new morning with health suhi
cient to do our work in gladness.
That it 10 say, we need enough
Of la play spell every day to keep
Us in good physical condition,
The man who is done up and
tagged out has not found bis
work. And the man who lives

given Of ths wisdom Of Mr. HAr.
riman's cautain that good crops
are needed to maintain and in
crease the current business i'm
provement.
Good crops are fundamental
for business prosperity and no
one yet knows what the crops are
10 be. The food supply this
Spring is short. For the first
eight months Of the crop year
the supply of grain.and Of wheat
and -four matched the same
months in 1908, or exceeded them.
In April a drop came. Grain re-
ceipts were three.quarters Of
April, 1908, and half April, 1907.
Wheat receipts in April were
half those Of March. The coun.
try suddenly came to the end
of its stores.
Meat products tell the same
story. For the first four months
of this year fresh beef, dressed
pork and the ike. leaving Chi.
cago, fell off s fifth compared
with 1908. The whole range,
live stock receipts in the West,
the packers shipments and ar
rivals in the East, were less,
from 8 to 20 per cent. than last
year for four months and for
April.
This shortage ran on through
May and June promises no
change. While shipments from
st. Louis and Chicago decreased,
consumptionin in theinterior States
increased. The Eastern supply
was cut at both ends.
Unless crops are good, and they
have not begun well, prices to.
the consumer will be high. Last
year there was a large surplus
from the year before. This year
there is none.

uNJuSrLY cENSuREp

The editor Of q local paper is
often uniustly censured for his
mistakes. The wonder is that be
does not make more of them.
On the average paper he must
deal with all kinds of subjects,
give the names, dates, etc. One
hour he may be engaged in re-
porting religious meeting and
the next drawing the picture Of
a fight. He must condense and
till with his items several col
umns, whether events are trans.
piring to throw up material for
his use or not. Count the local
items in a paper and imagine how
many steps they have required,
how much mental anxiety, worry
and work they have cost and
some idea of the editors work
can be gathered. The smallest
may have cost him a long walk
and much effort to reach the
facts. There is no end to his
work. When one paper goes to
press he turns his attention to
the next one. He makes the
rounds in search of news and
may not get line. From some
he must get news without their
knowing it, drawing them into
conversation and obtaining what
he wants in sections. He may
labor for hours in chasing down
a rumor only to find that there is
nothing in it. His local columns
stare him in the face and de.
mand to be filed, not with skim
milk but with cream of the news
events and matters Of interest |
His bounds are limited and yeti
he must find in each day and all |
through the week, month and
year somethingof interest to the
public. No more perfect tread
mill could be devised. With
such a constant strain, producing
WEAKNESS of the body and mind
and an almost endless variety of
to be touched upon, is it
surprising that he should occa-
sionally make a mistake ? Other
people do, why shouldn't an
editor?
