The Successful Man.

The successful men are they who have worked while their neigh bors' minds were vacant or occu- pied with passing trivialities; who have been acting while others are wrestling with indecision. They are the men who have tried to read all that has been written about their craft; who have learned from the masters and fellow-craftmen of experience, and profited there by: who have gone about with their eyes open, noting the good points of other mems work, and considered how they might do bet ter. Thus they have carried themselves above mediocrity, and in striving to do things the best they could, have educated them selves in the truest manner.

Your Bank Account.

Have you little money in the bank9 If not, why not? We will assume, in the first place, that you haven't. Do you know that you are depriying yourself of a feeling of security that nothing else in the world equals? The working man with little money, say, just enough to tide him over for month or two. isn't afraid of sick ness or non employment. He is free man, and can look his employ CT and every other man in the face without the fear that, without the favor of that employer or that friend. he would be reduced to desperate straits to make ends meet. The bank account is the breeder of self-confidence, of ef- ficiency. of happiness. Rich men in their palaces, their yachts and their automobiles are no freer, no more independent than the man with the bank account. Every great economist bases his system of economy on the fundamental fact that it is not what is made that is the foundation of fortunes, but what is saved. A man mas earned in years time. just what he has at the end of the year. The rest has gone for expenses, wheth- CT for necessities or luxuries. The net savings of the year are the years sole earnings. The bank account. however small, has pecu- lar way of making a real man of it's owner. It's pretty hard to stands up straight and defy the world with nothing to back up your bluff but two or three meals ahead, It's a ten to one bet that the man who is penniless and talks about the great things he can do, Is a bob tailed 1usher Money may be the root of all evil Certainly it is the root of solid independence, of character and golden happiness, even though you have very small amount of it.

The Holidays.

Thanksgiving has passed and the Christmas holidays are upon us. Christmas is still Merry Christ mas" for us, although the men in the trenches in fighting Europe will be able to look backward to many another Christmas which was merrier for them and, we may hope, look forward to other merry Christmases to come. There is just one thing that will go to make our own Christmas a more merry one. and that is for the time being to forget ourselves and become regular guy" A regular guy is an open-hearted, open-handed, de- cent sort of a fellow who believes that others have right to some happiness on earth and is willing to do his share to help them get 1t. It doesn't cost much to be regu- Jar guy, because what we do doesn't decide our status so much as the spirit with which we do 1t, Suppose you are so poor that you can't afford to give even penny away. You can smile, can't you? You can hesitate by beggar in the street and wish him a merry Christmasr' You can feel in your heart that this is season of good will to men, and show it in your bearing toward your felloWmen. If the world has been good to you, now is the time to repay your debt. Give something to someone who needs it. You don't have to give much, but, if necessary, make a sacrifice. Don't let Christmas go by without becoming human, if only for a minute. A nickle here, a dime thererag doll for little girl who never had a doll, an overcoat for little fellow who brings your payer who hasn't got an oyercoat won. mean much to you, and 1t might make the Christmas merry for the little one. Loosen up' This is Christmas! Be regular guy.

Worrying.
s cents.

Disasters never leave us. there's always something grievous that we can worry OCT; there's something going balky, there's always some thing rocky, to justify roar. The parlor door is squeaking, the kitCh- en roof is leaking, there's trouble with the range; the COW is some where straying. the hen has ceased her laying. the dog has got the mange. There's always something trying. there's cause for tears and signing, if you're that way inclined. if you are fond of weeping, if you are keeping a sore spot on your mind. If you are always searching for Worry, where she's perchng. you'll find her. every trip; she will not try to lose you, she Il badger and abuse you until you lose your grip. But if you have decided that grief should be derided and chiVied from your door, the little daily troubles will seem as thin as bub- bles-too small to make you sore. When there's an all wool sorrow
 small comfort can we borrow from optomistic sharps, who say that woes don't matter. and bore us with their chatter. and twang their sunshine harps. But we can learn to laugh at the little griefs and chaff at the trifling sores and snarts; our faith on goodness pin hing, let's face the old world grin hing. and carry cheerful hearts Walt Mason.

More Asbestos Produced

The asbestos-producing industry of the United States is growing. For many years we have been the greatest manufacturers and users of asbestos, drawing our raw material from Can ada, but we are now getting some ex- coiien. Hher in our own country. The most notable feature of the asbestos industry In 1914 was the development ot new field in Arizona, which is furnishing grade of fiber that com pares very favorably with the Cana dian. As the mineral occurs in the Grand canyon 1t is frequently desig. hated Grand Canyon asbestos, al. though the deposit in that remarkable natural wonder is not yet producing asbestos commercially. For electric installation the Arizona asbestos is even better than the Canadian product, for it contains lower percentage of iron. Asbestos of low grade has been produced in Georgia for many years. --------- --------------=-

 The suggestion that the people of the United States form clubs and com panies for rife practice and familiar ize themselves in the use of weapons in readiness for protection in case of war is only new in the form of the weapons in which We are asked to be- come skilled.

what Aid. Dempsey said and how he
said it, the Day Book report would
have noted that when Aid. Dempsey
spoke about his wife buying a skirt
in the Mandel sub-basement, his
manner was not strictly serious and
nobody in the committee room be-
ieved the alderman intended that his
wife was being foisted onto the pub
lie as one more expert on ventila-
ton and fire protection.
1t was clear to all, however, that
Aid. Dempsey did want everybody in
the committee room to know that he
has so little fear of fire danger in
the Mandel Sub-basement that he is
willing his wife should go shopping
there.
Aid. Ray, KimbaIl and Kennedy
had been talking savagely about the
Mandel sub-basement. They said an
ordinance to legalize it would lay the
way for another Iroquois or Eastland :
horror. Their talk was solemn and
their faces had the same sober look
on so many faces in Chicago streets
the day they hauled the truckloads
of dripping dead from the Eastland
to the Second Regiment armory.
1t was a serious situation, in fact.
funereal. To cut the crepe out of it
and jolly everybody along toward
seeing little fun and to give hap
pier touch to it all, Aid. Dempsey in
his talk incidentally cited the fact
that his wife bought a skirt in rne
sub-basement under discussion and
he's willing to legalize place he lets
his wife go shopping in. -,
That's the whole trouble in this
Mandel endorsement affair. Those
against it say it's taking a chance on
wholesale murder and their cry is

Aid. Dempsey's wife bought skirt
one day in the endorsement of Man
del Brothers department store.


When the ordinance to legaIize the
Mandel sub-basement came before
council buildings committee Aid.
Dempsey stated that part of his
knowledge of conditions existing in
the Mandel sub-basement was based
on the fact that his wife had pur-
chased a skirt there recently. He
gave as one of his reasons for voting
in favor of the ordinance the fact
that his wife found nothing out of
the way in ventilation or fire safe
guard conditions.
Now come Northwest Side business
men and want to know from Aid.
Dempsey whether his wife on cas-
ual shopping tour is worth quoting as
an authority on health and fire dan
gers alleged against the Mandel sub
basement.
In the Northwest Side Commercial
assn bulletin, there is, a reprint of
The Day Book report of Aid. Demp-
sey's speech in building committee,
wherein he said:
81 am not afraid that the ventilat-
ing system will get out of order, and
in case of fire panic say frankly
would rather have my wife and chill
dren in Mandel's sub-basement than
in any of the floors above. My wife
bought a skirt there lately in this
very endorsement we're discussing
and she didn't see anything out of
the way"
Comment of the bulletin editor,
Tomaz Deuther, on this runs:
1--WE can hardly credit that Aid.
Dempsey has been correctly quoted,
as we do not thing that he would
make use of the argument in regard
to what his wife saw or did not see
on casual visit, where she could not
sufficiently learn all conditions to in
diligently give any opinion whatso-
ever as to the merits or dement's of
q cIIh-
