Business Activity in the Easr

Tn New York, Boston and Philadelphia business is very active, ond will say quite normal" said John F. Hathaway of the borough of Manhattan.
 The business situation was distressingly bad about three months ago, but the enor- nous export business and the able way In which bankers have handled their bus- ness, to say nothing of other factors, nave made for prosperity. I think the whole country will see good times again between now and spring.

Pay Day for Small Debts

'Of all the jobs I ever undertook this of collecting small accounts Is the most difficult" said business man. 'I have about $500 out in sums varying from 50 cents to s5 and yet my best collection for day does not exceed $1O and it is often less.
 Now, cannot say that these are bad debts because the people who owe me are people in pretty good circumstances but they simply hate to part with the money and invariably tell me to call next day or else promise to send me a check Nor the amount. Were it not that I cannot we'll afford to do it, I would send each of my debtors signed receipt and tell him to keep the money
 T see we are having all sorts of days sons and things, but why not have n universal pay day on which man or woman would walk around wearing a badge declaring the wearer had paid all his or her small debts?
 T had hopes that the mention made in The Age-Herald of this matter some little time ago would have aroused a spirit among people but it seems it re- quires more than mere newspaper writ ing to bring results.
 Here is my case in a few words: If I go out to collect I must leave my business. and if I don't go out to collect I lose my money. If I give my accounts to a regular collector he will want one half of what he collects, and no doubt he will deserve it. but that is more than I can afford. After giving this question much thought. have come to the con- clusion that the only way to solve the difficulty is to appoint some day soon

Ex-Presidents Popular

"Ex-President Roosevelt will always be popular figure in this country, and ex- President Taft seems more popular than he was when he was in office," said an old politician who spent many years in Washington.
 MT. Taft is great lawyer-one of the pest constitutional lawyers, it is said, in the country. He is a pleasant speaker, and whether his subject be law or some national problem he is always interesting and sometimes Illuminating. I thought his crushing defeat in 1912 would have a de- pressing effect upon MT. Taft. but he is of good disposition and was not at all hacked at the result of the election I have never voted the republican ticket, but have great admiration for Mr. Taft as ex-President."

MOST ABLE MEN NOT LARGE
Worlds oenIusss 40 a Rule Have Been
Only Medium or Even Less
In Size.

We arc inclined to look up 10 the
physically big man, not only literally
but there Is always a certain presump-
ton In his favor that he must be cor
respondingly strong mentally, says a
writer In Popular Mechanics. People
make room for him; they attach moro
Importance usually TO what no says
than TO the Same words uttered by an
understood man. We unconsciously
picture IN minds the bayonet
charge and storming OF the trenches as
the work OF large men. The boy
dreams of having n football physique
and little sister worships her big
brother.
Other abilities being equal. the large
man has a positive advantage over the
small And yet many, II not the
majority OF the great men OF the world
have been only OF medium build and
not a few were even understood.
A certain large city In this country
had for years made II a rule not to
employ in its IRE department any
but large men. The result was a
small army OF athletes which never
failed to cause a positive thrill when
ever they went on parade. They dis
tinctly represented the day Of physI-
cal might.
For some years past the inventive
mind has been busy, and very sue
cessfully, to produce apparatus which
never tires, and calculated to trans
fer TO a great extent the hard work
from muscle to machine. The evil
dences OF this evolution may be seen
In sven small towns everywhere, and
now the fire engine drawn by volun-
teers and worked with hand brakes
must be looked for In museums Of
strange mechanics OF the past. In It's
place is the s~elf-propelled ~gas-englned
machine, carrying It's own hose and
capable Of highly effective work with
only two men; and ladder trucks by
means Of which one small man ma
nipulating some short levers can In
q few seconds raise great ladders to
dizzy heights. or pour n deluge OF
water into tenth-story windows while
standing In the street below. Hence
II has come about that the ~ small

less each year, and the nan whom
nature has not endowed with great
physical strength is coming into his
own.
