Looking for a Position
u By -
NATHANIEL C.FOWLR.R.

said to me that he preferred the
landscape to the land" He would
give me to understand that he had
nothing in common with the mere
material, but had lifted himself
above it. Instantly, replied, you
are a dead beat You are willing
to plant yourself on another mans
land at his expense, to live by the
toll of those who make it possible
for you to be idle"
When you are looking for posi-
ton, do not forget your better self,
but realize that it is dependent upon
your material self, which must feed
and clothe it.
Present yourself to your would
be employer as you would your
goods if you were salesman. For
the time being you are salesman
OF yourself. Your ability is COM
mercia1 commodity, and you have it
for sale, as much so as the dealer
in -four and molasses, who must
make his living out OF them, has
his goods for sale.
Look into the sky, if you will,
and allow the stars to guide your
future life; yet, while on earth.
and obliged to take from the earth
the necessities of life, you must not
ignore them, but consider them as
holy commodities, as the material
things which will lay the founda-
ton of your later betterment.
You will suffer hardships. All
men have. You will feel that you
are misjudged. All men have been.
You will think that you are not
given opportunity. No man has
had all the opportunity he desires.
You will become discouraged. All
men have been.
1t is your duty TO yourself, and
TO your future, to corral your ma
terial possessioas-your ability to
make good"-and then present
them when applying for a position
as you would if they were cold and
inanimate commodities.

FIREMEN ARE KEPT BUSY.

flames spread to 721 Nineteenth street and

NSSFSiAsht' -s-~-'
business is a cold-blooded
ID proposition, notwithstanding
the fact that the majority of
employers are kind-hearted and
generous, and take a personal inter
est in those who work for them.
Business would not be business,
if its prime object were not to
make money. Consequently, every
one connected with business, from
the Office boy to the president of
corporation, must contribute some
thing to the direct income, or to
the general prosperity, of the firm.
If he cannot deliver the goods" he
will not be retained.
Every business man, and all those
connected with him, are, and right
ly should be, commercial commo-
dities, as much so as the stock in
trade or the goods manufactured.
| am not asking you TO forget the
niceties of life, or to refuse to con-
slider the ethical side of things, for
there is something above mere live
lihood-earning or financial pros
perity; but, if you would succeed
in business, you must not forget
that you are a commodity, and at
times you must strip from your
self the purely sentimental and con-
slider yourself apart OF marketable
goods. If you do not do this, you
are untitled to enter the field of
business strife, and would better
confne yourself to some profession.
Even in this case, however, you
have to make good" or fail.
Life is made up of the material
and what may be considered the
spiritual. To forget the material
side is to dwarf the spiritual side.
If the Almighty considered it neces-
sary to house the mind or spirit
within a material covering, man
has no right to ignore the purely
material, but should use it as
means to a better end.
