That's Why EASY Boss" Was
Up Against 1t.
NOT WHAT FIRM REQUIRED
Superintendent Couldn't See Thinqs as
He Saw Them, and in Consequence
Employees Have Lost Their
Fool Friend-Lackine
In Nerve.

| He was man of sense, but he had
fed on sentimental literature and
nursed on golden texts and survived
romance or two until his business
talents were not what they seemed.
In short, he was the sentimental boss
who was up against it.
His help adored him, but as some
things are too good to be true, or too
good to last, the dear fellow" wasn't
there long to be adored. The superin-
tendent said the business was sliding
down hill ever since he took charge,
and these were the charges against
him:
He hasn't the nerve to lay off the
girl with the dreamy eye The girl
having mother dependent, ETC., he
| couldn't do it. He would rather cheat
the firm than offend one of these little
ones in the office.
Here are two distinct incidents that
brought the sentimental boss into the
quicksand of disfavor:
! He raised the Gibsonian beauty three
dollars week because she wept into
his inkwell Mother must have a
sea voyage, the doctor says-and l
! really don't know how-O, dear me,
everythings such a problem!' Her
sweet convincing hints about the diff
Guilty of making both ends meet on
s12 week drifted right to the core
of the soul Of the manager.
| The daughter of the minister of the
church 10 which he belonged asked for
a chance in his Office. There was no
room just then for Minnie, but he
! thought he could make an opening
! by and by.
! When the first rush came along he
created new position. When the rush
was over he couldn't abolish it, and
think of Minnie pattering up and down
the pavements and applying to brutes
of managers!
Minnie enjoyed her snap, plus ten
dollars week, and one day she inno-
Gently padded the figures on the pay
roll so you couldn't see how much
extra pin money she took out of the
office.
The sentimental manager was in the
meditative mood for a week and then
out of his own pocket covered up the
$40 deficit and never said word to
the minister, who was strong on home
government and through his own influ-
ence got Minnie another position with
another firm where she could not re-
peat the same offence, and then gave
her only one little hint as to being
more honest hereafter
Noble act of friendship from the
standpoint of the minister-foolish act
of chump who wasn't cut out for
business from the standpoint of the
firm.
And the firm policy Of firm will
prevail against the 'lunatic lover and
the poet combination. That's how
the sentimental boss got weary of
the boss and is now a successful pi-
ano tuner.

LIGHTS OF THE HOLY CITY
Kerosene Lamps Arc Principal Hum
inaton Of Nearly All Streets of
Jerusalem.

The streets and nearly all of the
buildings of Jerusalem are lighted by
oil lamps of some sort, there being
only three private electric lighting
plants In the city. The Turkish gov
eminent has recently asked for ten
ders for the installation and operation
of an electric lighting concession for
that city, but considerable time
must necessarily elapse before any
such system will be ready for use.
In addition to the ordinary kero-
sene lamps, there are three makes
of vapor gas lamps on the local mar
ket, which consume gas generated
from kerosene cor gasoline. Two of
these are Swedish, made in Stock
holm, and the third is American, man.
ufactured in Chicago, H. The for
mer burn kerosene, while the latter
requires gasoline.
The city government of Jerusalem
now maintains about 1000 oil lamps
for street illumination, and a small
number Of the Swedish vspor lamps
are located at the principal corners
and crossings where a stronger light
is needed. 1t is proposed TO even
tually replace all these oil lamps by
electric arc or incandescent lamps.

1t is a wise man who knows when

Wasting your employers time is a

Don't think that you can always
crawl out of difficulty as easily as
you did the last time. The person
who persists in taking chances will
some time find the way of escape
blocked.
Things are pretty evenly distrib-

just about what they deserve. APP

health and a slim purse beats riding

silver spoon is often corroded with

Give me good piece of pie and
lunch. My mother has been sick,
and | miss her old-fashioned apple
pies" The young workman swung
his tin dinner-pail in his hand as he
talked to his chum on their way home
from the factory.
Polly was leaning out Of the win
dow and heard the conversation as
the men passed by the house.
Opportunities are all around US,
but most of us are looking so eagerly
for something big that we fail to
see the small things.
Pauline Gresham had been wishing
that she had some way to make lit
tie money, and as she heard the con-
versation the thought came to her:
why couldn't bake pies and sell
them to the factory hands?"
She lived with her grandfather and
grandmother in pretty little cot
tage of their own, situated in a grow
ing town. Their circumstances had
been comfortable as long as Mr.. Gresh-
am was able to work. But now they
had to economic in order to pay doc
tors bills out of their tiny income.
Polly was a bright girl and able to
earn a good salary if she could have
been spared to leave home, but now
her only hope was to employ her
leisure hours in some way that would
bring in little cash.
A large factory which employed sew
eral hundred workmen had recently
been built a square distant from their
home and Polly saw that she might
sell MES for the workmen's lunch.
Grandma was a fine cook and made
delicious pies and had carefully taught
Polly the secrets of her art.
After some consultation Polly pre-
pared number of business cards
which were simply squares of heavy
white paper on which was written:
Hot home made pies will be on
