EVENING CHIT
BIT RUrA CAMERON.

| Close to the head of the list of un-
satisfactory mortals is the occasional
star. The great, earnest, enthusiastic,
hard-hitting workaday world has little
| use for the sporadic genius, and that
is the only world whose opinions are
worth a continental upon any subject.
The peripatetic performer is a fizzle,
a faker, a fool and a common nuiS-
ance. He is a spectacular spurter who
now and then wins the applause of the
thoughtless by some startling achieve
ment only to betray those who trust
him in time of need.
There is a tradition about every in
dustr II institution that concerns the
magmf cent performances of some I'M
dependa BILE nezer- do-wel1. Usually, it Is
recalled by some one who begins his
remarks with: He was a wonder-too
bad he was a drunkard. Remember
what he did when" and so on. These
traditions are vicious and he who is
wont to utter maudlin praises of the
kind of worker who is brilliant today
and utterly lacking tomorrow does
credit neither to his heart nor to his
head.
The plain truth about the matter is
that no man is worth while who can't
produce results consistently. Stability
is the greatest of virtues and its other
name is persistence The business. Of
the world isn't done by meteoric fly
by the eccentric ''genuseS'' who are eff
fective one day in the week and utter
ly useless the rest of the time The
unthinking may worship them and look
with a kindly eye upon their faults,
hut folk who want results have to de-
pend upon the less f1ashy but more
earnest and efficient workers who are
at their posts eight or ten or twelve
hours a day every working day of the
year.
Too often we do an injustice to the
consistent worker. We get used to his
excellent performance. Noting him al
ways in his place, and seeing him al
ways producing consistent results, we
come to look upon him as an unin-
spired plodder. We place next to him
a man who is at once a spree worker
and a spree drinker. He startles us
with an unusual showing for a day or
two and when We have congratulated
ourselves upon our find he turns UP
drunk Or we place beside the depend
able man a genius" and get the same
result. Still We eXtol the virtues of the
meteor and forget the fixed star. We
forget that the man who works only
occasionally brings to his labor a hum
ger for it that is not always pos
sible to the one who works six days
in the week all the year around We
forget that the spreer and the genius
and there isn't a great deal of diff
ference between the two-tacxle each
new task with an enthusiasm born of
novelty, which fades when the job
grows old. And thus we give to the
occasional star the need of praise that
is due to him whose inspiration is con-
slant and whose excellent achievements
appear inconspicuous only because they
are all pretty much of a goodly size
and none stands out above the other

SCHEDULE IA.

From discussion of the tariff in con-
gress. carried on a s it is, largely by
members who are DESTROYS of protect
ing as far as they can the interests of
their constituents, the public is not
likely to gain any considera BILE amount
of reliable information. Some light is
thrown on Schedule K" the wool
schedule, by N. I. Stone, in an article in
the May Century.
The writer was formerly chief statis-
tician of the tariff board and should
know something about his subject His
article is in part as follows:
Any one who has travelled abroad or
had occasion to compare foreign prices
of cloths and dress goods with those
prevailing in this country knows that
on the average they can be bought in
Europe, particularly in free-trade Eng
land, at about half the price usually
asked for similar goods at home. AS
the investigation of the Tariff Board
has shown, there are many cloths on
which the difference in price is not so
great, particularly on the finer grades
while, on the other hand the American
price is more than double the English
on some of the medium and cheap
grades of cloth.
But, on the whole, it is safe to state
that our prices on wooden and worsted
cloths are about double those in Eng
land. The difference in price repre-
sents largely the toll paid by ninety
odd million Americans for the support
of the half-century-old infant worsted
and the century, old wooden industry.
We have all been vaguely aware of that
fact and yet have submitted to it for
the ultimate good of creating a raw
wool supply and a fine wooden and
worsted industry that would make us
independent of the rest of the world
and give employment to American
la Dor at American wages.
Not until the two wings of the in
dustry, the wooden and the worste1,
fell out among themselves and the
carded-wool manufacturers showed to
an astonished public that the tariff. as
it stood throttled an important branch
of the industry. instead of building it
up. was the layman given an oppor-
tunity of getting a deeper insight into
the workings of Schedule K.
