THE RINGING OF THE BELL.

The scene is Lloyd's. in London. that
ancient and historic and exceedingly
busy place where the ships of the
world are insured.
The underwriters and their clerks
are engaged in their important tasks.
There is work to be done. that the loss
of Il ship may not mean ruin to her
owners. but may be distributed. 1t is
a place of pounds and dollars and
marks and francs. in the atmosphere
of which. it seems. there should be no
!inge of sentiment.
But athwart the voices Of the brok-
ers and their assistants. and the rustic
Of papers and the shuffling Of feet,
comes the sound of a pealing ships
bell
Once. twice. rings the bell!
A ship, reported lost, is safe.
Instantly business is forgotten. The
brokers and their clerks throng about
the bell and they cheer and they shake
hands with one another and they are
as happy as schoolboys. A ship is
safe. The bell has announced it.
For half a century the bell has been
rung twice when such happy news has
reached Lloyd's. and each time there
has been heartfelt rejoicing.
Cynics may say: "Of. course they
would rejoice Doesn't the pealing of
the bell mean the saving of insur-
ance?" Not so-shame on you. Master
Cynic. The bell is pealed for the sal
walton of human life, the coming back
Of those who were mSnaced with en-
quilting in the deep waters or with the
horrors Of shipwreck on rocky shores.
So in each life. when some one loved
and dear and imperiled is saved from
death or illness or shipwreck. moral or
physical. there should be pealed bell
Of thankfulness and rejoicing. not once
or twice, but many times.

STRENGTHENING THE BACK.

If you grunt and sweat under a
weary life. as Hamlet said
II you feel that you are working too
hard for your employer
If you believe that he is underpaying
you and does not appreciate you at
your proper value
It may be so Such things have been
known to happen But before you de-
eide that such are the facts in your
own case and take steps to remedy
them, read this:
The way to lift ones employer off
ones back is to make ones back so
efficient that he cannot afford to be
on it,
That's from "Crowds.' a recent book
by Gerald Stanley Lee Mr.. Lee is u
lecturer and writer and preacher of
the gospel.
There are inappi eciative employers.
There are those who are so blind to
their own interests that they will not
see and appreciate and reward faith
fulnesS and good service. Such gen
orally meet with their deserts, for their
good men leave them for other employ
ment and they must put up with in
ferior help.
But they are in the minority. For
man to continue in the business Of
employing others he must learn to
know and to recognize the efficient
employee. Both employer and en-
ployee are. whether each knows it or
not. cogs in the machine that makes
the business go.
That being so. does it not pay the
employee to see whether the root Of
his employers inappreciation is not
buried in the soil Of his own lack of
efficiency? =
Some men are only 25 per cent eff
cient: others lack so per cent of their
potential value They are like faulty
ovens from which only percentage
Of the value Of the fuel is realized
The 100 per cent efficient man is
rare specimen of humanity.
Depend upon it. your employer. if he
be a wise man. will not superimpose
upon your back. already bent beneath
the load of work. the added burden OF
his inappreciation. He will realize that
in doing so he is working against his
own interests. Not many employers do
that in these days Of urgent business
competition.
If you are aiming at becoming an em-
ployer Of men yourself it will pay you.
of course. to make your back more ef-
ficient.. Then when the time comes
for you to direct the work of others,
instead Of doing the actual labor your
self. you will know how to adjust the
burden to the backs of your men in
such way that you will be able to
make them. in their turn. more eff
cient.
Thus moves onward the machine OF
business.

Answer This, Mr. LiauOr Man.

The American Issue: A short time
ago there was meeting OF medical
men and scientists in Chicago. One
of the physicians who attended the
meeting was DR.. Theodore Diller of
Pittsburg, who was sent by the B. &
o. Railroad. DR.. Diller made an ad-
dress dealing with the drink habit
and railroading, and afterwards the
body of medical men passed reso-
luton in which they made this rec
ommendation:
I'VE recommend to the railroads
of the country generally the univer-
sal adoption Of the rule requiring all
employees to abstain from the use of
alcoholic beverages on duty or off
duty under penalty of discharge.
The habitual use of any narcotic
should be a ground for discharge
from the service"
Beer drinkers were handed stiff
jolt by DR.. Henry A. Cotton of New
Jersey, who declared that "every
drop of beer destroys a nerve cell.
But if it is a bad thing for a railroad
man to drink, why is it a good thing
for any other class of persons te
drink?
The saloon is the chief enemy OF
the man who labors. 1t takes his
money, his leisure time, his capa-
bility and his health and gives him
nothing desirable in return.

-Huerta'S EiniSh.

The Mexican situation is growing
tense and has almost reached the
swapping point. AS announced from
Washington, the United States gov
ernment is awaiting Huerta'S next
move. Evidently Huerta is follow
ing the example of Diaz, but he may
not be possessed of the fibre which
gave Dlaz the power of control and
set him secure for many years as a
Dictator III the guiSe of President
of the Republic Of Mexico.
The arrest and the incarceration
in prison of the members Of the
Mexican Congress was as audaclOus
as it was bold, but this outrageous
proceeding has aroused the vigOr-
ous protests Of the United states ard
the remOnsirance Of GeOrmany and
ether nations OF Europe.
Hueria's purpose was to remove
and TO silence all opposition to his
ambition. but he has been warmed
that he will be held to a strict ac-
count in the preservation of his
prisoners. who are held under mill
tary authority.
1t has been frequently said that
Mexicans need a strong hand at the
head of their government, but the
days of men of the Huerta stripe are
past. Huerta is about to reach his
finish.
1t is very true that Huerta hay
ing practically declared himself die
tatOr, has strained the peaceful at
titude of the United States, which
may finally eventuate in a recOgni-
ton of the Constitutionalists as bel
ligerents, and with the. rigid nell
trality Withdrawn arms and ammu-
milton will be fully supplied to the
MeXicans who have tired of Huerta
and are seeking the opportunity of
re-establishing a constitutional gov
ernment for their country.
The United States being keenlv
alive to the situation. is ready to act
in any contingency. but until every
means at Cancellation is at an end
the policy of peace is to be main
tanned.

LIT is against the rules to cry" said
the little boy.
And he hurried away to perform his
duties
Against the rules to cry!
Are there not many other occasions
when it is against the rules to cry?
When you are beaten, for example. in
the fight for fame Or wealth or posi-
rSon, when you see the cause on which
you have set your heart lying defeated
amid the ruins 6f your hopes when
fhe thing which YOU have desired
greatly turns ont 10 he other than
shat yhu expected
Is il not against the rules to cry?
This is no argument against the
blessed relief of tears. There are times
.Nhen the surcharged heart can find no
ether outlet. and the gentle rain of the
tears is a benediction. No one would
or should attempt to seal the mercifuI
fountains.
But there is the fearless crying. the
repining that is useless. That is
against the rules
Let us school ourselves. as did the
rttle lad in the railroad offices, not to
cry when we are called upon to face
defeat and disaster
There is the crying that is welcome
relief, and there is the crying that is
the confession of weakness 1t is the
hitter sort that is against the rules.
