Parliament Adjourns With the
Vexed Question Not Far
From Adjustment.

LONDON, August 3.-Parliament ad-
Journed today until November ID Dur
ing the recess the conferences between
the leaders trying to settle the consti-
tutlonal differences of the house of
lords and the house of commons viii be
continued, and the expectation is that
compromise may be reached and pos
siblv announced, on the reassembling
of parliament on November 10.
Several of the points in dispute have
been adjusted, and Premier Asquith, in
statement to the commons on July
30, reported that discussions had so adj
vanced during twelve meetings as to
I render it, in the opinion of all of the
conterees, not only desirable but neces-
| sary that they should continue.
The most important work of the new
parliament has been the adoption of
Chancellor Lloyd Georges contested
budget. the struggle over which during
| the preceding parliament brought the
long standing controversy between the
commons and the lords to a head, and
caused the dissolution of parliament
| and a new election Premier Asquith 3
cabinet having been sustained at the
elections, the budget was adopted. and
under the influence of the King S death
both parties were inclined to seek a
friendly adjustment Of the dispute over
the lords power of veto rather than
precipitate new elections while the ma
ton was still in mOurninp
Friendlier feelings of the parties also
| were noticeable in the discussion of the
bin modifying the King s accession de
claring that the oldtime phrases
against the Roman Catholic doctrines
were being eliminated and the declara
ton beino made acceptable TO all the
King s subjects, nonconformists as well
as Roman Catholics.

a preliminary discussion, was buried in

SHOULD ALWAYS BE
NICE TO THE UMPIRES

President Lynch Of the National
League. who is an eminent authority on
umpires, said the other day, in his
Judgment, more could be done with
those officials by the practise of kind
ness than by brutality. That is, the
umpire should be treated like horse
or a trained dog. He should be fed
with Jumps of sugar instead of being
kept constantly in terror of the whip.
Suppose said Mr. Lynch, himself
the king of umpires in his day, ''that
your captain is coaching at third base
and there is q close play there, the
umpire giving the decision against your
side.
1.-The ordinary captain or coacher
will Immediately let out yelp that
can be heard for two miles, declare that
his team is being robbed, that the UNI
pire is blind as a bat and crooked be
sides. and that there is no chance at
all to win with such raw decisions be
ing pulled off. He will very likely howl
certainly demoralize his club by his
strenuous kicking.
CAT the same time he will stir up
the umpires so that they viii be sore
and ratified for the rest of the game,
| and viii not do as good work as they
otherwise might. Nothing has been
accomplished for his cIug. and, in fact,
he is likely to get the worst of any
succeeding close decisions.
fENow, my idea of what a smart cap
/ tain ought to do Is this: When a close
| one goes against his club, suppose he
should say. Never mind that. boys.
We got little the worst of that one,
| but wen pull it out Just the same.
Work a little harder now.

umpire. and vet just enough said 70

| Of thinking in the next few minutes
! He will ask himself If II may not be
| true that he gave a bad decision. and
/ he will brace up and be all the more
| careful for the rest Of the game. lie
will certainly not give that side the
worse of it again.
''Umpires are only human. They are
| bound to be affected by what is SAID

else would be. When a captain OF

Some Pertinent Remarks 90 When You
Are Twenty Years Old.
The Sample Case: + So you are 81 A.?
You are man! Did you ever think,
son, how much it has cost to make a
man of you? lIg
Some one has figured up the cost in
money of rearing a child. He says to
bring man to legal age, care for him
and educate him costs $4,000. Which
is lot of money to put in flesh and
blood. But that isn't all. You have
cost your father many hard knocks and
short dinners and worry and gray
streaks in his hair. And your mother
ali, boy! you will never know. You
have cost her days and nights of anx-
iety and wrinkles in her dear face and
heartaches and sacrifice.

call him old, but just the same he isn't
as young as he used to be. You see,
young man, he has been working hard
for more than twenty years to help
you! And already your mother is be-
ginning to lean on you.
Your father has done fairly well, but
you can do better. You may not think
so, but he does. He has given you q
better chance than he had. In many
ways you can begin where he left OFF.
He expects a good deal from you. and
that Is why he has tried to make a

IT PAYS TO fight
FOR Big CONTRACT
HOW THE HARDWIcK GRANITE
CO. SECURED THE WORK OF
SUPPLYING THE NEW WISDOM
SIN STATE CAPITOL WITH IT'S
WHITE GRANITE STONE.

1t pays to fight. When you go after
sale, go after II with all your might
and main. Stick to 1t until you get
there. This theory is we'll demonstrate
ed in the history Of the contract fol-
| furnishing the stone for the Wisconsin
state house. The contract for furnish
ing the exterior granite work for the
| new Wisconsin state capital is the
largest of it's kind in the history of the
cut stone industry in this country, and
its award came as a result of long
battle In which the arts of salesman
ship and perseverance had full play.
About year ago, when 1t was first
announced that bids would be opened
for the granite work for the new capt.
toll, stone dealers throughout the coun-
try began to sit up and scheme. At the
daily conference of the heads. of de-
partments of the company, one of the
chiefs spoke up: I'VE must have that
contract and Hardwick white granite
is the material in which we want it.
Joe had better go out to Madison and
look the ground over"
The next day Joe" went. His full
name is J. B. Reinhalter, and he is the
western representative of the company.
His first kilograms when he reached
Madison was: The commission favors
Georgia marble. Shall l fght?" The
response from the general managers
office in Vermont was: Stay there till
you win"
Six months. went by, and Reinhalter
was still on the ground, meeting the
commissioners daily, and submitting
samples and analyses and testimonials,
and practicing all the arts of an ex-
perienced salesman. Finally he wired
to the home office: Commission leaves
tomorrow for an investigation of the
eastern quarries. What shall I dor
go with them! Stick to it till you
win"
Cine month later the salesman wired
for help, and the general manager went
to Madison. Another month dragged
by. The commission had opened the
bids and then adjourned from time to
time. One day it was decided to hold
no meetings for two weeks, and the
representatives of the other stone firms
who were fighting for the contract
promptly left for home.
That evening the late Senator Villas,
one of the commission, came across two
determined looking men sitting in a
hotel lobby at Madison, waiting. He
recognized them as the granite general
manager and salesman.
why, thought you fellows would
have left town three hours ago!" he
said.
The manager looked up. Senator"
2e said, when this company goes into
Ia fight, it fights to a finish; and we're
here until that contract is awarded"
Two weeks later the company won,
and the new Wisconsin state capitol
is now being erected of glittering white
granite.

Orleans. La, he obtained what is en-
titled The Salesman's Greed. Each and
every traveller Of the firm was given
this creed before he started on the road
and strange to say Mr. Chatterton has
retained it. 1t is a little yellow with
age, but the wording is still there and
1t Is believed that 1t will be Of benefit
TO other travelling men. Here 1t is:
The SaIesman's Greed.
II believe in the goods / am selling,
In the firm am working for and in
my ability to get results. believe that
honest goods can be sold to honest men
by honest methods. / believe in work
ing, not waiting in&alaughing, not
weeping; in boosting, not knocking, and
In the pleasure Of selling goods. be-
lieve that man gets what he goes
after; that one order today is worth
two orders tomorrow and that no man
is down and out until he has lost faith
in himself ] believe in today and the
work l am doing; in tomorrow and the
work hope to do, and in the sure re-
ward which the future holds. / be-
lieve In courtesy, in kindness, in gem,
crosby, in good cheer, in frie.. dship,

Even with a short crop, every sales
man who travels out OF Fargo or any,
where In the northwest if he strictly
observes the precepts in the above
creed will have not much trouble in
making a fair showing.
