thing better than any one else-and
who are ambitious to have business
of their own.
There are scores of men and wom-
en- in this city-many of them wage
earners-who ought to be their own
boss. Lying dormant in their brain
are ideas, which, if commercialized
would make them wealthy.
What others have done you can do
through ambition, determination and
advertising.
MARY Elizabeth" of Rochester,
was a working girl who made delici-
Gus chocolate creams. She sold a
few pounds and was so encouraged
that she got the advertising manager
of local newspaper help prepare
some advertising. Within a few
months every lover of good candy in
Rochester was eating Mary Eliza
beth's chocolates.
This was five years ago. MARY

woman employing several hundred
people. Her chocolates are known
from ocean to ocean.

Action Most Bizarre,
Saws Pail Mall Gazette.

LONDON, July 19.-Regarding
Secretary Bryan's lecture tour The
Pail Mall Gazette tonight says:
TT is a singular paradox in a
country where there is so much money
in politics as In the United States
that the chief member Of the Presi-
dents cabinet should find mis- official
salary inadequate to support his ex-
istenCe.
I'VE can quite understand why S12,-
600 year is not enough for the Sec
rotary of State, considering the Amer
lean scale of life, but one would have
expected a man of Bryan's moral
courage to call upon his country for
a living wage, TO which he is entitled,
rather than to propose going on the
stump as a lecturer. in the roles OF
minister and a professional enter
tainer.
They make a most bizarre combi-
nation TO all British ways of think
ing. and we shall be surprised If even
American opinion reConciles itself to
their incongruity."

emphasize Bryan's Jeffersonian sim

when great national issues must be

WRITER'S MAKE.
BEST DIPLOMATS.
PACE
New Ambassador to Italy, Author
of Many Stories, Leaves Him
self Out of Discussion.

YORK HARBOR, Me, July 10
Are authors better qualified to fill
diplomatic posts than others? The
appointment Of Thomas Nelson Page
as Ambassador to Italy brings this
subject to the fore, coupled with the
appointments made by President
Wilson.
The greatest diplomats America
boasts were men Of letters. Benjamin
Franklin John Hay, Nathaniel Haw-
thorne James Russell Lowell, William
Dean Howell furnish a distinguished
list.
Mr.. Page, who is 60, is modesty
personifed He has been reporter,
lawyer, writer. and has succeeded in
all
Mr.. Page asked If he could explain
as an author what special qualifiCa-
tions a man of letters possesses to
perform the duties of Ambassador,
consented to speak, leaving his own
case out of the discussion. Said he:
"A man Of letters is better fitted to
do anything better than anyone else.
His work has broadened his horizon
if it hadn't we might as well do away
with letters.
Must Know Problems.
THE author must necessarily be
conyersant with the economic and
governmental problems Of the day.
81 think the greatest good authors
in general have alone is to interpret
the spirit Of the section about which
they write There can be no doubt
there Is a better feeling now between
the North and the South than there
was before the Spanish American
war This, ! believe, is because Of
writer's
Every part Of the world is being
more properly set before another part
by the authors.
THE President has had a thorough
training. Besides the college educa-
ton, he has had associations with the
North and the South, and he is con-
versant with the economic and gov
ernmental problems He is a man of
strong character and has been de-
servedly selected by the people to
hold their most important Office.
81 met Walter Page prior to his de-
parture for his London post and gave
him a dinner His whole heart was
set upon the desire to make good. "
Qualifications of Diplomat.
What is your idea OF the qualfica-
tions a good diplomat possesses" he
was asked.
DEVOTION 10 MS duty is perhaps the
first and most important" he replied.
"Then comes devotion to your coun-
try, application to your duty and a
desire to bring your country and the
| country to which you have been sent
closer together
"Of course. since the cable came
| into use foreign posts are brought
closer to the State Department at
| Washington and it must be a great
! comfort to an Ambassador to feel that
/ at any time he may seek aid from
| Washington.
| Il believe Charles Francis Adams
/ was the last foreign ambassador to
| be thrown upon his own resources
| and that was because the cable was
1 cut
Rome is indeed a charming post

Whether Mr.. Bryan can afford to

under the frankly admitted cirCum-

only afford a money making vacation,
