sTUe6s, MASTER OF TRAFFIC.
Harriman's Right Hand Man Thinks Sixty-fiVe the Work Limit
 Age for Ali Men.

When the Hartman genius of or ganization flashed out over the new | system, it lighted on Stubbs for the post to which above all others he was best fitted" writes Isaac r. Marcos son in Munsey's Magazine. He was made director of traffic of all the Hartman lines, and was put into an office at Chicago where he could sit | at a desk and keep his finger on the
 tirelcss pulse of the traffic that rang ed over 16.o0O miles of track.
 ''Henceforth he was Harriman's right-hand man and close associate. This intimate personal and official relation continued until death re
 moved the little chief.
 Now. why did Hartman raise Stubbs to his eminence? Simply be- cause Stubbs. by common consent
 of his colleagues, is regarded as the greatest rate-maker and traffic man
 of his day
 You get some idea of what this means when I tell you that his work
 was the only phase of the railroad game where the head of the system kept his hands off Hartman was always in close ouchwith shrdlus always in close touch with his aids, and often actually worked with them. Overnight he undid plans that had taken months to formulate, but often his swift shift galvanized them into action. Without technical study, he solved vast engineering problems; without looking at d law book, he
 got at the core Of tangled litigation.
 But he only projected himself into
 activities that he could see This was
 true of maintenance. operation and
 construction. He never meddled with
 the domain ruled by Stubbs. because
 it had to do with the rate a thing
 he could not see. To make this rate
 both equitable and profitable. is the
 very keynote of successful railroading
 gro appreciate it's making. you must remember that the business of a railroad is to transport freight
 and passengers. The task of the traf-
 fife man is to sell this transportation at so much per mile. In short, he is a salesman. But he cannot sell until
 he fixes the price. Stubb's work
 therefore was to create this price. to adapt it to every shifting condition to which traffic is heir. and then to get freight and people willing to pay the price"

In speaking of fringes 1t is well to mention the style of matching up the frirges to the embroideries or other trimmings employed. For instance. if wool embroidery is used on the dress. the fringes, buttons and buckles are made to match. This idea also applies to the silk beaded and jet varieties.
 4 new idea in the bead fringe is a ball design. seen in both large and small sizes. Fur ball fringe is also a new trimming note along these lines. tie doubt that fringe trimmings oS all kinds will be extensively feateureG during the season

GARRY HERMAN
Whose Loyalty to His Home Town
 Brought Its Own Reward

Because Garry Hermann believes in the supremacy of Cincinnati, pictur- ing his home town as the best sport ing village on top of earth, the most stable in a business way, the su- perlatively beautiful in point of pie turesque, and peopled by the salt of all the earth-because Mir. Hermann devoutly believes these things, and says his prayers at night time to his patron, Saint Cincy, why, then, Gin cinnati thinks all amiable progress i've and admirable qualities embodied in the person of Garry Herman. What makes the lamb love Mary so? the eager children cry. Cause Mary loves the lamb, you know, the teacher did reply.
 MT. Hermann has long aimed to make Of Cincinnati the garden spot of the world in the matter of rais- ing standards and the result is that in the list of the citys elect, Abou Ben Herrmann's name leads all the rest. When the gentleman figured that the banking situation was sus- cepuble of improvement, he set about improving it-and became power in finance When he looked around for ways of bettering mercantile con ditions. he found them-and found also that he was rewarded with d commercial elevation that must have been highly gratifying. When he took note of the unsatisfactory state of the baseball market in Cincinnati, he took over the club-and soon he was as popular a man in sport as he had been in business. Now he is chairman of the National Base ball Commission, as well as president of the company controlling the Gin cinnati club. and his name is power ful on all the diamonds.
 MT. Hermann gets his men to play for him with the same enthusiasm almost to say impetuosity, which marks his own eXertions in whatever he may be active. You are never quite sure where Cincinnati is going to come out strong, no matter what the qualifications of the particular ri- val The team is never thrown out .of the reckoning. Last season, it finished fifth separated from Phila delphia by only 23 points. and lead ing its next competitor. Brooklyn, by T nOtches. Mir Herman thinks this lis nothing to be ashamed of. he tells the foX-like Clark Griffith to go ahead along the same lines and he would be satisfied with whatever the showing, only he will naturally be more satisfied with 2 more prominent showing.
 As for attendance. MT Herrmann's team is always one si the drawing cards. The figures for last year show that the club drew out 439,075 pa irons. which runs into dollars. as you might say Incidentally this at tendance showing exceeds the marks

The tempering of copper. one of the mos striking of the alleged lost arts of ancient civilization. has been shown by recent researches to be a myth In Mexico no trace of such an art is found among the remains of the Aztecs and Toltecs. and very superior cutting tools of the Balsas river ruins prove to be not copper but an olloy. Analysis shows that the hardness is due to nickel and cobalt in the copper.
