GETTING A START.
THE LISTENER.
BY NATHANIEL {. FOWLER, JR.

iCoTNnght l9l5.l
n VERY man who does not know any,
thing. and most men who do know
- something. love to talk about what
they think they know. or do know
The close-mouthed merchant, the yea.
yea, nay. nay sort of a fellow. who uses
his mind more than his mouth. will, if
encouraged. talk for hours upon any
subject in which he is intensely inter-
ested. His head is a storehouse of in
format ton. and, although it may have
more entrances than exists. nc will open
himself to any one who knows how to
knock at the door of his mind
have a friend. who, although not
literally educated. possesses more gem
eral information to the square inch than
go per cent of educators have to the
square foot. and that is one hundred and
fOrty-four TO one. He obtained this
knowledge largely because he was a good
listener and possessed the ability to make
others talk. II he were riding on
train he would select from among the
passengers the man who he thought was
intelligent and carried with him heavy
stock of Information. In a diplomatic
way he would discover the strangers
business or profession and the subject in
which he was the most interested. He
would turn the conversation in that di-
rection. asking an intelligent question
here and there. and showing deep inter
est in the subject, He seldom failed to
obtain the desired result. He met all
classes of people. from the classical stu
dent TO the keeper of a meat market. and
from each he drew a supply of informa-
ton, much of which, naturally, was val
uelesS. He had sense enough, however,
to realize that he could not expect to
receive valuable information alone; that
he must be content with chaff as web
as with wheat; but from each he drew
he remembered; the worthless he for
got
Conversation is, believe, the best
medium for the obtaining of informa-
tion. Everybody has something of his
own of which he is proud. and which he
is willing to distribute.
Bear in mind. however, that the lis
tener is only half a man. He must give,
IL he would receive. He. therefore, is
not only a good listener, but a good dis
tributor. He exchanges what he knows
for what others know, plays a game of
mutual winning. giving what he can af-
ford to spare, and taking from others
what they are willing to distribute.
Social as well as business life is based
upon exchange.
Education does not consist Of receiving
and OF not distributing
Conversation, rightly turned, leads to
profit, and is that kind of work which
is both recreation and business.
While YOU should give the preference
to the acquiring of information which
is directly in your line, do not confine
your mental receipts to that alone. Fa-
with general affairs, even
though many of them may not be of
direct benefit to you, broadens the mind
and makes you better able to use that
part of the information received which
Is a part and parcel of your livelihood
making.
Don't be afraid of knowing too much.

I guess losing the use OF her right hand
for many weeks won't help any"
Il am Jay Dickson, the owner Of these
cottages. l came down to see Mrs. Dow, -
explained jay. feeling unreasonably eIatcd
because his divinity was the Widow Dow
and free!
She can't talk business for awhile yet. -
growled the physician. You'll have 10
come down again.
''Oh. expect to remain in DorlIton for
several weeks" said Jay Cheerfully, and
presently he went to the hotel. and tele-
phoned for his motor car and some cloth
ing, and then went back to inquire after
the health OF the Widow Dow
She am feeling quite sma't, sir" said
poor Amada, who had learned that Il was
Jay Dickson who had saved her mistress
from death itself. Then she bent over
and whispered guardedly in his ear:
Please. sir, hope You won't be too
hard about that rent. Poor Miss Lucy
is most were out trying to collect money
that's due her and now her working arm
Is broke | deClar' II l shan't take in
washing TO help OUT
Dickson's gladly gave a promise, and.
strangely contsnted at the outcome of
affairs, this most impractical of land
lords proceeded to visit his other tenants
in the row, and with them planned to
lidhS suCH improvements III the COlIaBeS
and grounds as would justify a change
in the name of the place.
In the course of time is was transform
ed into Rose Terrace, and 1t was due to
the good taste of the Widow Dow. who
acted as Jays adviser in the matter OF
improvements. During her convalescence
the Widow Dow went to drive in jays
big automobile, while Amada sat, a
mountain OF swelling pride, in the ton
neau
And at the inevitable wedding which
followed Armada would have been the
bridesmaid II she had had her own way,
but Jay Dickson found her a better
position in his household, and later on
she was supremely happy in charge OF
the nursery.
Green. the agent. was pleasantly shock
ed to receive a generous check when his
employer was married. He never really
knew what It was for. but Jay explained
to his lovely bride:
IF II hadn't been for Green's complain
ing letter I'd never have gone down to
see the Widow DOw-and some other
chap might have won her first
But the widow only laughed in her de-
lightful way.
There couldn't possibly have been any
other chap" she said. for there is only
one you. you know"
And Jay Dickson was supremeIy con-
tented with this very lucid explanation.

London, Feb. 2-Alfred Arnold, COR
of the London Daily Ex-
press, returned here yesterday after
months tour in Germany. He says:
II visited Frankfort-on-M Main, Dus-
seldorf. Elberfeld. Bremen, Hamburg
and Munich. The most significant
symptom / observed was the appear
ance OF a definite peace party in the
centers, the organization of
peace meetings and the placarding of
stop the war posters.
AT Dusseldorf, for instance, l dis
covered the arrest OF a number of per-
sons who had attended q peace meet
ing. Two of these were shot.
In all parts Of Germany through
which / passed l saw large bodies OF
e-enforcements, under new levies. on
their way to both battle fronts.
Food is not actually scarce, but the
coarseness of the now prevalent fare
is significant and IL revolts the Ger
man appetite. All dainties are reserved
for the hospitals.
Only paper money is now used in
Germany where six penny notes are in
All the gold and silver has
been surrendered to the municipal au-
thorities.
Above and beyond all other sentl-
ments and considerations is the furious

son Company File Answer to
Court Rule.

J. Miller Kenyon, H. Rozier Dulany.
and Byron u. Graham, trusees for the
bankrupt Lewis johnson & Co., yester-

by Justice Mccoy to show why William

anime the company's books.
Mearns formerly was a member of the
company. but claimed he was not a
member for a long time before IT be-
came bankrupt. The trustees have been
trying to have Mearns assets pooled
with those of members of the firm for
the benefit of creditors. In their answer
they deny that Mearns ever really with
drew, and they say that a safe deposit
box and desk, the property Of Mearns,
are in the offices of the company.
The trustees say they have no objec-
tion to an examination Of the books by
Mearns, but that his examination should
not interfere with their use. They ask
that Mearns be not permitted to remove
the contents Of the desk or safe deposit
box. c. c. Tucker, Leon Tobriner, and
II. Prescott Galley are attorneys for the
trustees. Mearns is represented by
Douglas, Ruffin & Obear.

REPORT "JIM CROW" BILL.
Measure Would Impose Fines and
imprisonment for Refusal.

A favorable report on the Jim
Crow" bill was sent to the House by
the District Committee yesterday. with
an amendment imposing a fine and i'm
prisOnmcnt on persons refusing to ride
in their designated section of a car.
The report was written by Representa-
tive Caraway, of Arkansas. The report
suggests that the middle-door cars
would make enactment Of the law SIM
pie. as the whites could go to one end
OF the car and the colored persons to
the other.
The report says the bill Is reported
favorably because OF the numerous un-
pleasant experiences that occur on
street cars under the present system,
and states that the committee believes
the enactment of the bill would bene-
Mt both races greatly. 1t would give
railway employees police power to en-
force the provisions of the law.

Special Correspondent 10 The Herald;
New York, Feb. 2.-E. w. Brown
ing, a son of the founder of the big
chain of Browning King clothing
stores, is giving the grasping New
York landlord a lesson in apartment rent
ing.
Mr. Browning is young and rich
and contrary to the usual rule is eN-
tremeIy Industrious. He has put up
several skyscrapers down in the bust
ness district. the most notable one
being the Worlds Tower Building AT
ll0 West Fortieth street.
Last summer he was unable to spend
the season abroad and so he decided
TO get up a few apartment buildings.
He started four ten-story buildings t
the same time in the very exclusive
section of the west seventies.
All of the apartments will be two
rooms and the price will be about half
OF the usual price asked in the neigh
borhood. There will be European and
American plan dining-rooms and MIR.
Browning figures on giving the usual
81 table de hote for about 35 cents.
And the most unusual part of the
plan is that he does not say that he
is doing any philanthropic work. but
rather says he expects to make a fair
percentage on his investment.
Broadway dance palace, has sent in
a letter of resignation to his en-
ployer. In making his departure he
said:
II have been we'll treated, and in
fact everything was very pleasant ana
the only reason I am resigning is to
get some sleep"
