Taking a Mean Advantage

From the Kansas City Journal.
 A Burr Oak man woke up the other night to find his wife going through his pants pocket, where he kept his money. When he asked her what she was after she stammered and. said she was sewing on button that had ap- peared to be missing"
 And what did the mean old son of Adam do but get right out of bed and find two buttons on his coat, three on his vest and three on his underclothes that were just about ready to drop off and sit there and make the woman sew 'em on, remarking all the time upon the thoughtfulness of such a loving little woman who would crawl out oi bed on cold night just to see tha. her husbands clothes were in good re- pair

Havoc of the eIHide Hunters 


 Tn 1881 the buffalo hunters shipped 5OO0O buffalo hides to the east. The next year the number was 100000, and in 1883 40 900. Only 300 were reported in 1884, and after that there were none at all.

 The last survivors. B in number, were killed on the Big Porcupine in 1886. and were mounted for the National museum With that the wild buffalo of North America practically ceased to exist, ex. cept for a few in the Yellowstone Ma. tional park and handful in the wilds of Athabasca-

Do You Need Him

YTE WAS an deficiency engineer. Explaining his business. he told l \ me he was employed by the own- CTS of large factory plants to study the operations of the plants and to report as to ways and means by which waste might be eliminated.
 For instance
 He might find that certain machines were wrongly placed to secured best re- suits or that the machine operatives were making unnecessary motions and keeping down the output.
 Or
 That the power was insufficient, or machines, or not fully utilized. or tha' waste could be cut out by using certain by-products.
 Or
 That roll tops desks be abolished and flat tops substituted in order that clerks doing merely mechanical work might moi waste time behind the roll tops.
 Now
 It easily can be seen that the intelli- gent study of such an efficiency engln eer would be of great value to his em- ployers. And in a large way it may be said he is helping to hasten the day oi large production and of fewer hours ci labor.
 Allu l lHCu5Ht-
 How much we humans need the ser. vices of, some such efficiency expert!
 We are each operating the most valu' able and most complex plant in existence the mind and body. There's the dynamo that runs it-nervous energy. And 1he whole machinery of it is under the contro and direction of the business office-the brain.
 Do we get all the power necessary?
 Is the transmission all right? Is any machine defective? Is there waste of en. ergy, force, or of the product?
 We know when we fret and worry there is loss of nervous energy; when there is nerve dissipation there is loss of vital power.
 When the machinery of body or mind is overtaxed we do not turn out o,l. best work, and there is depreciation oi the machinery.
 Are we manufacturing happiness? Are we turning out character? Is the product worth while? If not, there is something wrong witf i the plant. It needs overhauling. We need an efficiency engineer.

Walk Like a Man

You have noted the manner Of the ne er-do-well who lounges about and shambles along with his hands in his pockets.
 When he walks he shuffles in listless sort of way, usually with hisreyes on the ground, advertising himself by his every motion as an idler and loafer.
 Do not fall into his habit
 Hold yourself up.
 Your manner of carriage, the way you step off, your motions, have much to do with what you try to do or be.
 No man can succeed in the guise of . Weaklng or a coward.
 Men quickly read men.
 A glance into your face, swift sum ming up of your manner and movements, enables the trained observer to put you down for what you are.
 The man with the alert air, the upright self respectful bearing, the brisk motion, gets his audience at once. He that shows slovenly gait, laggard manner, a slouching habit, will. as the Irish bull has it. lose his chance before he gets it. Stand up!
 You are a man made in Gods image. blood in your veins.
 Show your prerogative
 Years do not matter. Do not let vour frame droop as you grow old. Keep a straight spine. Walk as if you. were somebody. You are somebody
 As the slothful fellow shambles he shows the figure of failure.
 You were born to walk upright on ''your hind legs" Hold up your chin and walk like a man, even to your grave. Do not stooo as if you wanted to go on all fours. You are no four footed anil mal
 You are Gods kin.
 No finer spectacle is presented to the sons of men than that of a white haired man or woman, erect. brisk, cheery Character dieritv. nobility, is spelled by the upright attitude.
 Thefeore look up. not down.
 Do not shamble like bear,
 Walk erect like a man. r,
