ingly to young Perry.
Can you fill that?" he asked.
YES" Perry replied.
The drugs called for were very rare,
and Mr.. Sweetser knew it.
Made Host of Friends.
Most of the drug clerks downtown
at that time took themselves very
seriously. They were pompous and
self-assured. Men like Sweetser found
it pleasure to deal with the kindly,
bashful young night clerk at Hudnut's-
What is more, they went to Hudnut
and told him about 1t, but Hudnut kept
this fact to himself.
There never was drug clerk down
town who made so many friends as
Charles J. Perry, or who had SO many
odd experiences, and no man has rea-
son to know more of the value OF
courtesy. Once he had man come to
him in the early morning and put out
handful of gold.

asked
1T is" Perry replied.

man.
Perry did SO. When he expressed
his admiration again Perry started to
give the gold back.

ness to me-" said the man, and walked
out.
For Is years Perry worked for Hud-
nut. The highest pay he ever received
there was 500 a week. He had offers
innumerable from other druggists.
They offered him twice what he was
getting from Hudnut, and then, when
he declined that asked him to name
his own price Business men, big and
little, were not slow to realize what
this modest, courteous man was worth
In business, and they suggested that
he open an establishment for himself,
and that they would back him. A
hundred such offers were made to him,
but he declined all Of them until Oc-
tober 6, 1886.
Opened HE Own store.
Then the New York Sun came out
with big, first-page story with the
heading, Something New Under the
Sun. 1t told how Charles J. Perry, the
Little Father OF Park Row." had

might rest herself. He carried the
child from Bowling Green to Vesey
street, and he was nearly exhausted
when he turned it over to its mother.
That taught him great lesson. Never
does woman enter his establishment
now with a child in her arms or a
child by her side that he or clerk
does not hurry forward with a chair
for her to rest on. 1t Is not only an
act of courtesy and an act of kindness,
but a good stroke of business, for he
knows, and every good retail merchant
knows, that once you get n customer
to sit down, he or she feels from that
time forward that that store Is his or
hers.
A lot Of men have preached that po-
likeness costs nothing and is the
soundest of assets. They are half
wrong and half right. Politeness Is
an asset but 1t often entails a sac
riflce.
The Perry of today works just as
hard as the Perry of 1868. He has
the same faculty for making friends
and holding them. The Hendersons,
the Danas, the Reds, the Raymonds
have gone, but now and then you will
see the Brisbanes, the Wardmans, the
Reicks, the young Pulitzers, the Seitzs
and the other giants of metropolitan
Journalism In Perry's chatting with
the doctor.
Sticks to Old Customs.
He has done more acts of kindness,
more acts of charity and more acts Of
courtesy than probably any other man
in all New York. And he has done
them all modestly, bashfully. He
sticks to old friends and old customs.
He occupied the same room In the
Astor house for more than a score OF
years. He has been the, first man to
vote In HIS precinct in the First as
sembly district in every election for
the last 35 years. He would feel mis-
cradle IL he were not busy or II he were
not polite. He will not live uptown
because It distresses him to see per-
sons over-crowded and suffering In the
subway and In the IL" trains. .q'
One Of the strangest things about
him is, that although he never wrote
an article in his life, and never worked
day on newspaper. he has one Of
the finest senses for news of any man
in New York. No one knows this bet
ter than James Gordon Bennett, for
twice Mr.. Bennett has offered the edi-
torship OF the Herald to this modest,
bashful man who has built up . great
Business on the rock Of courtesy.

INJURY BY CARPENTER WORM
During Past Few Years Large Trunk
Borer Caterpillar Of Cottonwood
Has Spread to Films.
(Ry & b. DOLEND


In many sections, especially through
out the western states, poplars ana
cottonwoods are the first shade trees
planted. Their beauty, quick growth
and heavy foliage make them very USE
full trees In a new settlement. Later
on they are usually replaced by trees
of slower growth, which are stronger
and more enduring.
In some states the favorite shade
trees seem now to be the cork elm
and the American elm. The poplars
are Objectionable in many ways. They
are only too often infested with root
borers, bark borers, borers In the
trunk, or even the small twigs.
The elms, on the contrary, are usu-
ally remarkably free from insect pests
of all kinds; but during the last few
years the large trunk-boring caterpil-
lar of the cottonwood has spread to
the elms and for some time has been
doing an increasing amount Of dam
age to these beautiful young trees.
This dangerous caterpillar Is called
the carpenter worm; a good name, for
1t would be hard to do smoother work
with gouge and auger than 1t does with
its strong, horny jaws. 1t is native
of this country, and is common in
many trees and bushes, from which 1t
spreads to the elms and cultivated
willows.
Usually the first sign of it's pres
ence in an elm is a moist, discolored
spot around some crack or scar in
the bark. A careful examination shows
bits of damp, black sawdust sticking
out from the crack. Later on these
signs grow palmer. In year or two
the dried bark falls away, leaving a
ragged hollow in the trunk, more or
less filled with bits of dead and partly
rotten wood. An injury by these de-
structive worms should receive prompt
and effective attention. Chisel away
all dead and rotten wood. and thor
oughly remove all droppings and de-
bris from the holes made by the car
penter worm. After a few days visit
the tree and notice which burrows con-
tain moist masses Of fresh droppings.
With an umbrella rib or a sharp,
heavy iron wire prod vigorously In
all these holes, so as to kill as many
worms as possible. Remove all de-
bris, and week later repeat the same
vigorous prodding. If this process
seems unsuccessful after repeated
trials buy few ounces Of bisulphide

who started business under Just such

who started business under Just such
conditions as did Charles J.Perry.
~ The Fmoneyed men associated with
him put up the money He did not
have to invest one cent, but he got
controlling interest in the corpora
ton because of the trade value Of his
courtesy.
That was a queer drug store under
the Sum-" You had to go up three
steps to get into It. Such thing in
New York was unheard Of, but 1t made
no difference with Perry's friends.
He took nearly all the trade of Hudnut
with him. The gold mine was moved
from the Herald building to the Sun.
When the Pulitzer building was built
Perry became its first tenant. For
some years he conducted one estab-
lishment In the Sun building and one
in the World. Now he has just the
one in the Pulitzer building and pays
$4,000 rent for the space he occupies.
There Is not another drug store in
America like 1t. The business It does
is immense. 1t does the largest soda
business in the world. There are
some other places that do as much
business within specified hours, but
Perry is open all the time.
Modest and Kindly az Ever.
He has not changed a bit in manner
from the day he went into Hudnut's
as q soda water boy. He is Just as
modest, just as bashful, just as kindly,
just as courteous. No one ever has
known him to lose his temper. He Is
student-a student Of the people.
He knows the retail business as few
men know 1t. Once, when he was a
boy, he saw woman carrying babe
in lower Broadway. Perry was strong
and vigorous in those days. He asked
the privilege Of carrying the child so
that the woman, who seemed ailing.

GERMANYS GRAND ADMIRAL

Grand Admiral Won Tirpitz, the
head OF the kaiser's navy, Is the
dominating figure in German official
life. AS far as the navy is concerned,
Tirpitz dominates over the kaiser. A
man of comparatively humble birth,
born sixty-flve years ago, he entered
the royal Prussian navy when he was
only sixteen, cruising In the Baltic,

KING OF The =BELGIANS

Europe, last haven of "the divine
right Of kings" in the occidental
world, has long glared impotently at
Albert, king of Belgium His casual
democracy, his undoubted business
ability and his manner of dealing with
the Socialists. so that the Socialists,
cursing most labor conditions, paused
to praise their ruler, has worried them
almost into prostration.
He is called in the circles which
royalty frequents the Socialist king"
but whatever his political belief the
fact remains that he brought his coun-
try to wonderful state of prosperity
and the state railroads under his d.
rect supervision became little more
profitable than any In Europe.
There are few things that this
accomplished king can not do or hasn't
done. He fights, rides, swims, shoots
and engages in aviation, engineering
and writing with equal facility.

GERMANY'S FIELD MARSHAL

Gen. Count Helmuth Won Moltke,
field marshal of the German army,
now in supreme command, under the
kaiser, of the united forces Of the
empire, is the favorite nephew Of the
old field marshal Of the Franco-Prus-
sian war of 1870. He inherited his
uncle's favorite personal belongings
and his favorite estate. His father
was the old field marshals younger
brother and was chamberlain to the
king of Denmark, the Moltke family
being OF Danish origin. Helmuth Won
Moltke. now flfty-six years old, was a
sub-lieutenant in the Franco-Prussian
war and was awarded the iron cross
for bravery. From 1882 to 1891 he
was his celebrated uncle's adjutant
on the general staff, and 1t took him
that whole period to advance from
tie rank of captain to that of major.
