Omaha Sunday morning. Another

SUNDAY MAGAZINE for November 21, 1915

a clerk in millinery house; then opened
a small establishment of his own with
practically no capital. He invented
thousand unique ways of impressing his
personality on his customers. Johnny
Miles correspondence sparkled with
aphorisms and made him famous among
millinery buyers. His business grew to
large proportions, and he is about to re-
tire, or already has done so.
"Come in and have cigar" he once
wrote. @It'll be good one; but our
goods are still better"
Usually, in one way or another, the
personality of successful man or busi-
ness is made to stand out.
But perhaps the most significant thing

head has the reputation of operating on
the highest efficiency principles; but l
never think of it without recalling this
story of its inception. Without this bit
of daring, based on knowledge of the
business, probably the plant would not
exist to-day. 1t seems to be mostly the
men who go after things who get to the
top. Efficiency rests, after all, on knowl-
edge, enterprise, and the nerve to act.
Many people who walk along lower
Broadway have observed peculiar name
on the show window of wholesale mil
linery house: "Johnny Miles, The real
name of the proprietor of this business is
John Milestone of the cleverest of pub
licity men in his own field He started as

would not stay in rut when he knew he
had the ability to make good in bigger
things. Appel saw chance, and lost no
time in getting after it, although the easy
thing would have been to forget it.
Cottingham jumped out of job into all
sorts of troubles. Doubleday staked
everything on big idea when he went
after his opportunity in Europe. Miles
risked failure when he quit salaried po-
sition to start small wholesale business,
and evidently he worked his gray matter
pretty hard in finding ways to get over
the obstacles.
There doesn't seem to be anything in
the stories of these men that couldn't
apply to the average clerk.

1T was case of decarin' time out on
the house. Uh-huh-a whole after
noon. What's the use bein' a pri-
- vate sec. in good standin unless you
can put one over on the time-clock now
and then? Besides, | had social date;
and, now Mr.. Robert is back on the job
so steady and is gettin' so domestic in his
habits, somebody's got to represent the
Corrugated Trust at these function things.
The event was the openin' of the Pill
Box; you know, one of these dinky little
theaters where they do the capsule drama
at two dollars seat. Not that I've been
givin my theatrical taste the highbrow
treatment. I'm still strong for the smoke
less war play where the coised spy gets
hisn good and hard.
But | understand this one-act stuff is
the thing to see just now, and I'd picked
up hunch that Wee and Aunte had
planned to be in on this openin until
Auntie's sciatica developed so bad that
they had to call it off So it's me maxim

catch; but when he sees what the game
is, he comes back with the friendly grin.
"There!" says Wee, tintin' up. "Now
behave"
Sorry" says l, "but had to field my
position, didn't l? Once more, now"
Certainly not says Wee. Besides,
there goes the curtain"
And if it hadn't been for Interruptions
like that we might have had perfectly
good time. We generally do when we're
let alone. To sort of string the fun out

it was while we're swappin josh over the
toasted crumpets and marmalade that we
discovers familiar lookin couple on the
dancin' surface.
