VALUE OF PUNcTUALiTY.

Business and industry in this coun-
try have been reduced to system that
compels the admiration of the world,
yet it is doubtful If the great masses
of the people have learned in a prac-
teal way the value that should be
placed on punctuality. True, employ
ers insist that their employees be on
time at their work, but many of these
same employers will fail by half an
hour to keep an appointment, and I'M
dertake to offer excuses for their fail
ure. A note at the bank compels
promptness because OF the conse-
quences that may follow neglect to
give 1t attention, but the loss to others
by lack of punctuality may be of SER
ious character. The failure OF so many
people in being prompt In all their re-
lations to others probably lies in the
fact that. they magnify the lack OF
punctuality in others and minimize il
in themselves, thereby making way for
n laxness that becomes a harmful habit
to all whom it affects.-Pittsburg Dis
