BUSINESS HONESTY.

Business men should not be
Christians only when they say
their prayers, but all the time.
The confidence Of the people Is
necessary for the real success Of
any business, and the surest way
to gain this confidence is to deal
honestly, tell the absolute truth,
hide nothing and convince the
people that they are getting
square deal. Justice Is a virtue
which prompts US to pay what
we owe to our neighbor. 1t Is
the foundation stone Of social or
der and of business intercourse,
for If we did not believe that
men had q sense of justice we
would have no confidence In
their integrity, and without this
confidence commercial life would
be paralyzed.-Cardinal Gibbons.

had was down off the mouth of Crazy
inlet" said the parson. "a ripping
northeastern was blowing, and l was
out on the end of the point alone. The
ducks came down wind along the edge
of the shoal. and they were so far
away that 1t was just impossible to
kill them outright l could have had
hundred shots that day, they came SO
thick, but l let lot of them go by.
At dark | had picked up twenty-five
birds. Not one of them was dead
when l dropped them as they wheeled
by; but, boys. | didn't have to shoot a
single cripple in the water"
Curley gave the parson long look,
filled and lighted his pipe, then snort
ed in disgust, for he was an old hand.
and he knew that one needed more
than pinch of salt to capture q
wounded canvasback In open water.
Suppose you hypnotized those birds
you couldn't kill dead into coming
ashore for you to wiring their necks?"
he grunted.

were going so fast that when l knocked
'em down they'd hit the water and
bound up ten or fifteen feet. Then ia
kill 'em on the first bounce with the
second barrel"-Outlng.

Il Enabled the Astute Author to Drive
a Good Bargain.
Some time about the beginning of the
nineteenth century Peter Pindar CDR.
John WolcotO drove a good bargain
with the publishers, Robinson s.
Walker. While negotiations were under
way the author developed an attack
of asthma, which was always at its
most distressing stage whenever the
publishers were present. He was only
fifty-seven then, but the publishers de-
cided that their chances were good
and agreed to pay him annuity of
f250 instead of a lump sum for his
work
Soon after the bond was signed the
doctor went to Cornwall. where he re-
covered his health, and returned to
London without any cough, which was
far from being pleasing sight to the
persons who had to pay his annuity.
One day he called upon Mr.. Walker.
the manager for the parties, who, sur
veying him with a scrutinizing eye,
asked him how he did. Much better,
thank you," said Wo&ott. II have
taken the measure of my asthma; the
fellow is troublesome, but 1 know his
strength and am his master" .'ohr
said Mr.. Walker gravely, and turned
into an adjoining room, where Mrs.
Walker, a prudent woman. had been
listening to the conversation. Wolcott,
aware of the feeling, paid a keen at
tention to the husband and wife and
heard the latter exclaim: There, now,
| didn't tell you he wouldn't die? Fool
that you've been! l knew he wouldn't
| die"
Peter Pindar survived both the part

completes its growth and comes out as

then requires at least fourteen days to
mature its first batch of eggs. and 1t

six layings, of from 100 to $50 eggs

we were summoned to attend in the
apartment where he and the rest of
the company were gathered. We went
In and took our seats. The little eld-
erly gentleman with the hook nose
prayed. and we all stood up. When
he had finished most of us sat down.
The gentleman with the hooked nose

pressions. which | was too much
