WIEN Bill arrived at the the
firm out West the first thing
that impressed him was the an
tiquated system of doing bust
ness in the office. The man
ager, am old man, who had
been with the firm many years,
at first resented Bills coming
out there to wake things up or
to brighten up the in6eld a
bit. as Bill called it.
The clerks all seemed dopey
and stood around talking
about most anything except
what they were being hired
for. When Bill asked to see
the advertising account, the
manager told him he would
find it very small, as he be-
lieved a firm as old as this one
and as well known didn t need
to advertise much.
Yes, said Bill, every one
knows a chicken lays am egg,
but If the hen didu t cackle at
the time she did it, they might
forget about it. SO think the
first thing we had better do Is
to look into the best advertis-
ing mediums and let the peo-
pie know what we have to
sell. 80

7 But I am only recalling these
facts for the sake Of putting be-
fore the minds eye Of the reader
a picture of the marvellous sur
roundings amid which some re-
markable creatures dwell,
A Favorite Resort.
They are inhabitants Of the
ends Of the earth, and particD-
larly of the southern, or antarctic
end. These queer animals were
found at Macquarie Island, which
lies southwest of New Zealand, ana
about halfway from Australia to
the Antarctic Continent. This
lone island, lying in the deep sea
that guards the great polar con
tinent, has been made a subsid-
larry base for the Mawsen AntaFc~
ii ceXploring expedition, and a
wireless telegraph station has
been established there, which Is
in communication with Australia
on one side and the wild shores
of the Antarctic on the other.
The island appears to be IA
vorite resort of the animal spe-
cies that characterize the south
polar continent and its surround
ing waters. They absolutely
swarm there. They are astound-
ing by their numbers and their
strange forms and habits, Vast
areas of ground are occupied by
the rookeries of those singular
birds called penguins. which when
seen at a little distance mimic
human beings with their erect
carriage and their apparel of
feathers, which resembles a dis
play of white vests and black
/ coats. Huge albatrosses also
abound

Good Conversation

There should not be an attempt

A fatal habit is to use slang. The
practice Of reading aloud every

as we'll as to the mind.
To talk well It is necessary to
learn to think, to remember, to
observe and to keep informed Of
the events Of the world.
People who talk well in society
are never dull, silent, taciturn at
home. The habit Of talking pleas
antly at home is not practiced
sufficiently. Those who are cheer
ful and communicative at home.
full of goodwill, who tell of their
experiences Of the day, who talk
intelligently OF universal or per
sonal matters, who have the pow
er to draw others out and get
them to talk, are on the road to
success in conversation.
Good conversation is really

conversation than lecturine. or
