Do Big Jobs First.

The more you ponder difficulties the
harder they seem. So the thing is to
get them off the slate as soon as posi-
Bile. You get them off by going after
them. Just cast mp the work of the
day. Estimate the toll in each prob
lem. Tackle the hardest one before
you are tired. That may not be ac-
cording to precedent, but it's according
to good generalship. AS soon as you
get that off the list tackle the next
thing in Importance. Keep the work
going and you're bound to win vic
tories over self and the job you face.
Soon there won't be any real problems
to annoy you. 1t will just be matter
of attacking things in the best order.
You have gone a long way toward
mastery when you have learned to do
big things first.-Grit.

lceIanders as Emierants.

It is claimed for the Icelandic set
tiers that they have played no small
part in the progress and prosperity OF
the province of Manitoba, Canada, and
it is asserted that the story Of the for
eign population Of Winnipeg must nee
essarily begin with the Icelander. He
has set the pace for all the incoming
races. He is the illustration par excel
lence Of how a people of ambition and
industry can master difficulties, tri-
umph over prejudice, and attain their
desired place in the commercial, the
political, the intellectual and social
life of hustling and growing city in
a strange land. Outside the city 1t Is
not unusual to find Icelanders with
farms of 1000 acres.

SING TO SETTLE QUARRELs
Eskimos Have Peculiar Manner OF
Adjusting Their Grievances-En-
eny Must Listen.

The ESkimos, who live in the ice
bound. barren Northland, have way
Of settling quarrels which seems very
strange and amusing to those who live
in land of policemen and courts of
justice. There, when quarrels arise,
the man who has a grievance writes a
song in which he tells the wrongs that
have been done him. When this has
been composed to his satisfaction, he
invites his enemy to come and hear
him sing it. This the enemy must do,
and he brings with him all his rela-
tives and many Of his friends, while
the singer also has gathered his friends
and relatives for the occasion, which
is considered something of a general
entertainment by the people Of the vii
lage in which the men live.
Then, while other men of the village
pound madly on huge drums, the song
OF wrongs is begun. When it is fin
ished, if 'the audience expresses ap-
proval. the singer is considered to have
won and to have a just cause of COM
plant. But if dissatisfaction is ex-
pressed, that is considered sufficient
punishment. After the song everyone
dances and the party breaks up In
great good humor.

Good Wages Necessary.

Proper remuneration of labor and
well-being Of the individual must be
recognized as elements of sound busi-
ness management, says the Cleveland
Plain Dealer. The age has passed
when the yearly dividend paid to stock
holders is accepted by the public as
the sole cause for the existence Of an
industry. Neither are we justified In
passing judgment on the quality Of in
dustrial administration, or on the prac-
ticability of any system of factory op-
Grafton solely on the basis of whether
such administration or system will in
sure permanent or increasing degree
of financial profit to the owner. We
have to consider the human side of all
industrial activity, not alone in its re-
lation to the segregated community
and the public at large.

Device to Save Worry.

A ssworry-saving" device that Is De-
ing installed in many of the apartment
houses here, says the Pittsburgh DIS
patch, is a slot machine arrangement
intended to eliminate computation ana
dispute regarding the monthly bill for
telephone service.
The machine is built on the principle
of the public pay station slot tele-
phone, but is handler in size. 1t can
be purchased outright at comparative
ly little cost, or leased at reasonable
rates. It does away with all bills and
makes complaints Of overcharge impos-
sible. In the event that a tenant mas
not the proper change to insert in the
slot, he may insert brass checks, which
are supplied with the machine.
When the coin box is opened Oy the
collector the tenant is called on to re-
deem these brass checks. The device
is making hit with landlords and ten

RAISE FIVE VICE PRESIDENTS
Tyler, Fillmore, johnson, Arthur and
Roosevelt Succeeded on Death
CT the President

Five vice presidents of the United
States have on the death Of the presi-
dent succeeded to the higher office.
The first president to die while in office
was William Henry Harrison, grand
father Of Benjamin Harrison of In
diana His death occurred April 4,
1S41, just one month after his inaugur-
alton. The vice president, John Tyler.
then at his country home in Virginia,
was officially notified of the event and
on reaching Washington, at once took
the oath Of Office as president.
AS this was the first case of the kind
there was much discussion for time
in and out Of congress as to Tyler's
proper title-that is, whether he was
"vice president Of the United States
acting as president" or president. It
was finally; conceded on all sides that
the language of the Constitution Is
clear that on the death of the presi-
dent in Office the vice president be-
comes, in name as in fact, president.
The trainers of the Constitution did
not leave the door open for trouble
that might arise regarding the legality
of acts done by an "acting president" :"
On the death Of President Zachary
Taylor, July 9, 1850, Vice President
Millard Fillmore succeeded to the pres
idency and was at later date an un-
successful candidate for election to the
Office. Andrew johnson, the third vice
president to succeed to the higher Of
flee, tool the oath April Is, 1865, the
day after the assassination Of Presi-
dent Lincoln. President Garfield was
shot July 2, 1881, died the following
September 19, and was Immediately
succeeded by Vice President Chester A..
Arthur. Vice President Roosevelt sue
ceeded President Mckinley, who died
September Ii, 1901, and was the only
one of five vice presidents thus sue
ceeding to the Office who was subse-
quently elected to it.

Drum Major Necessary.

Indispensable is the drum major OF
q rural brass band, and the envy Of the
small boy is he as well. This func-
tionary is about as serviceable as
figurehead on a battleship, writes Zim
in Cartoons Magazine, yet his duties
are beyond estimation in keeping the
tubas and trombones from stumbling
into mud puddles and guiding the al
legged musicians past refreshment en-
poriums. His success rests on the eE-
cent of his ability to twirl the stick
over three-story buildings and catch it
behind his back on it's descent. He IS
to the band what the monkey is to a
hand-organ. All eyes are upon him
while the ears feast on the music. Big
city bands often roam about the streets
unescorted by a drum major and feel
not at all discommoded by his absence.
but country band would not deem
itself fit to be seen on parade without
this distinguished appendage.

CONFUSING CITY OF CAGNEs
Tourists Find 1t Advantageous to
Z Learn to Distinguish From Similar
Name-Cannes.

American and English visitors to the
Riviera soon come to know Cagnes by
name, according to Harper's Magazine.
It is challenge to their ability to pro-
nounce French-a challenge that must
be accepted, If you are in the region
Of Grasse or Nice or Antibes. Two
distinct tramway lines and several
roads lead from Grasse to Cannes and
Cagnes. Unless you are very careful
you may find yourself upon the wrong
route. Once on the Cagnes tramway,
or we'll engaged upon the road to
Cagnes, when you had meant to go to
Cannes, the mistake takes hours to re-
trieye.
At Nice chauffeurs and cochers love
to cheat you by the confusion Of these
two names. You bargain for the long
trip to Cannes, and are attracted by
the reasonable price quoted. In a
very short time you are at Cagnes. The
vehicle stops. Impossible to rectify
your mispronunciation without a sub
stantial increase Of the original sum
of the bargain. Antilles is between
Cagnes and Cannes. Cagnes is nearer,
and it is always to Cannes that you
want to go. Spell the name or write
it on piece of paper if you are to be
sure that you will be taken west in
stead Of east.

JUDICIAL SYSTEMS ARE OLD
Men Wransled Over Rights and
Wrongs From Time They Began
to Live Together.

The concrete beginning of a system
lied judiciary, writes Lewis NJ. Hosea
in Case and Comment, are as old as
the tribal relation Men quarreled
about rights and wrongs as soon as
they began to live together as a COM
munity, and the chief Of the tribe, or
the "elders," judged between claim
ants.
Indeed, at the earliest beginnings Of
recorded history we find in Egypt a
judicial system, including reviewing
power and remarkably developed ideas
OF administrative justice. Judicial Of
ficers in their epitaphs rest their claim
to Immortality upon having judged I'M
partially, never expressing the weak
and humble, and their merciful regard
for the fatherless and the widow.
In the Code of Hammnrabi of Baby
lon were embodied many Of the essen
tial principles of modern justice which
were transmitted to European peoples
through the conquests Of Alexander
and the Romans. These form the
primal basis of the Roman civil law CT
our English ancestors, derived through
the early tribes of northern Europe.
Even old Homer (66 B. CO. gives US
a suggestive picture of the modern sys-
tenn of court trials, as the Odyssey:
"What time the judge forsakes the
noisy bar
To take repast, and stills the wordy
war;"

FATAL DESERT OF KARA-KUM
Heat Reaching 163 Degrees Is Hurled
Into Ones Face Like Sheet
of Fire.

When the caravans in olden days
went up from Samarcand and Bokhara
to Merry for silks and carpets, or car
ried spices for Europe to the Caspian
ports, some Of them occasionally wan
dered off into the desert Of Kara-Kum,
and few of those ever returned. This
desert, which is smaller but more ter
rible than Sahara, came to be known
as "the tomb of caravans"
If you were to venture into the
desert of Kara-Kum you would travel
by camel. At first you would pass
through a land of scrubby bushes and
rest at noon near we'll surrounded
by a tiny native village at the bottom
Of a dimple in the desert. And here
you would feel your first touch of the
desert heat-a heat that reaches 165
degrees in the sun and is hurled into
Your face by the wind like veritable
sheet of fame.
In the comparative cool Of evening
you would push on into the desert
proper. Presently from the top OF d
Slight elevation you would see it reach
ing before you-a petrifed storm at
sea, an ocean Of sand. There is
nothing but sand, and it is tossed by
a ceaseless wind into biilows miles
long that creep forward perhaps a
foot a year, burying everything in
their path. The wind tears banners
of flying sand from their crests as you
look, releasing cascades that 60 rum
bling into the burning hollows.
The path across this desert is
marked only by bits of bone and stick,
occasionally by a human skull. 1t Is
easily lost in the dark, and it is the
thread which connects one shallow,
muddy well with another. Many have
lost it and they are still in the desert
of Kara-Kum.

Worlds Greatest Weavers.

The ancient Indians Of Peru are now
regarded as the worlds greatest weav-
ers. This noteworthy revelation in the
history of textile art Is the result of
the critical examination Of many rich
and beautiful tapestries and other fab
rics executed By the gifted ancient In
dian population Of Peru. Though
buried three centuries or more in the
sandy desert after being made with
primitive handlooms and other weav-
ing implements, these wonderful fab
RIGS are now found to be superior to
t,;nze turned out by the automatic
looms of the great mills Of today. The
primitive Peruvian handloom consisted
of two sticks, one at the top and one
at the bottom.

Bcssy Lacks 'Preciation.

Stephen called to see the new Jer-
sey calf, so he was taken out to the
pasture where it was. The Week-old
calf was at one end of the lot looking
through the bars, while the mother, old
Bess, was as far the opposite side as
she could get, gazing into space. After
waiting some time for display Of
affection between mother and daughter
Stephen looked up with a puzzled ex-
preston and said: "What's the matter
with that COW, uncle? Don't she pre-
ciate that calf?"

SHOULD KEEP ON ACHIEVING
Good Work Dems nds Continuous I'm
provenent in Every Line OF
Human Activity.

The other day a famous author was
telling me how he felt when his first
story was accepted. He said that with
in q few minutes the thought flashed
across his mind that he could not stop
but must go on. One good story
must be followed by another and an
other and another-else his reputation
would die and he would be Inundated.
He said that the feeling was not ex-
actly comfortable-that the prospect
was in way tcrrih'". "Ro;2g success
full" he said, lis not easy. The sue
cessful man adyertises to the world
that he can do certain things we'll
and he must go on making good or
back off the map. I:'s great sensa-
ton, a great experience-worth almost
anything-but it isn't a snap"
1t is the same way in business, says
q writer in the American Magazine.
The salesman who sets a high mark
has to go right out and beat that
mark or suffer by comparison with his
own record. He can't sit down in
rocking chair and devote the rest of
his life to receiving congratulations.
Have you ever sat in restaurant
and compared your job with that of a
waiter? Try it some time. No matter
what your work is am sure you will
see the point if you watch the waiter
and think how exactly his job typifies
yours. Take, for example, my job
that Of an editor. An editors job Is
exactly like that of a waiter. He has
to go and get something good and bring
it in. And after he has brought 1t in
he has to 60 right out and get some
thing more and bring that in. The
minute he sits down or stops to talk
unnecessarily with the guests, he
ceases to give as good service as be-
fore. Then the guests who praised
him a moment ago begin to growl.
And so, almost Immediately, he has
turned from a good servant into a
poor one.
This fits any line Of human activity.
A continuous performance is what Is
wanted. Nothing else counts.

Self-ConHdence Wins.

Have you ever felt the chagrin Of
knowing that you have failed in an en-
terprise, whether this may have been
mere incident of business or an en-
tire career, purely through lack Of self
confidence?
Thousands of men have failed in just
that way, writes Hugo Masters in Ply
Sical Culture.
Self-confdence is a factor in success
of such Importance that the man with
moderate ability, but plenty of conf
dence, will succeed where the man of
far greater ability, coupled with a lack
Of confidence, will fail. This has been
proven probably a few billion times in
the history Of human affairs.

SLOW TRAVEL IN MANCHURIA
Better Progress Is Made in Winter
Than in Summer by Anticipated
Methods.

Although it is much easier to reach
teen years ago, tho man who would
travel in the interior Of this primitive
part of China, as soon as he leaves tho
few railroads must rely upon means
that were standard a century ago.
If it is winter he will rattle over the
frozen mud in a cart drawn by three
horses. At night he will stop at an inn
where he must supply his own bed and
large part Of his own food. unless h"
is willing to be satisfied with a little
boiled corn. The walls of his room
will be of paper and eyes will peer at
him through holes hastily punched for
the purpose. In the morning his driv-
er will awaken him before daylight and
start him on another long day of jolts
and freezing.
In the summer travel is easier and
pleasanter, but also much slower. A
boat may be taken upon one of the
rivers. 1t will crawl along between
pleasantly shaded banks and green
fields, every little while coming to rest
upon sandbar, so that progress is un-
believably slow, even going down
stream. Against the current the boat
is laboriously poled and dragged with
heavy ropes.
By these means the traveller may
penetrate into a region where change
is unknown and the principles of Con-
fuclus still rule. He will meet natives
who have never seen watch or a rail-
road train, although they nominally
belong to one Of the oldest civiliza-
tons; he will see the squalor and dirt
and disease that 60 with ignorance.
The fact will be forcibly brought
home to him that modern progress
travels over good roads.

Many Great Men Die Young.

The question is often asked, what Is
meant by ''the prime Of life" 1t IS
difficult to say; people differ so much.
Most great men have died comparative
ly young. Alexander the Great died at
thirty-two, having conquered practical
ly the whole world of his day; julius
Caesar was dead at fifty-fve. Napole-
on died at ffty-two, Oliver Cromwell
at fifty-nine, Shakespeare at ffty-tWo,
Charles Dickens at fifty-eight. Nearly
all the men who made the French Rev
olution were dead before they were
fifty: many of them before they were
forty. Robespierre was only thirty-slx
when he died, Desmoulins thirty-four'
Danton thirty-fve, and Mirabeau for
ty-two.
