Don. IA Afraid of Work.

Charles NJ. Schwab, the well known
master of Bethlehem steel works, has
no more patience with the man who
works by the tine clock than has
Adam Bede with his fellow workmen
who dropped their tools at the sound
q the whistle. In his book Succeed
NJ With What You Have" he writes:
= have yet to hear of one instances
where misfortune hit man because he
worked overtime. Net long ago q man
was promoted In our works. How did
you happen to advance this fellowr
asked his boss. Well he explained,
I noticed that when the day shift
went of duty this man stayed ON the
job until he had talked over the days
problems with his successor. That's
why. Tie man who fails to give fE.ir
service during the hours for which he
= paid Is dishonest. The man who =
not willing to give more than this b
fool1sh."

70 the question. If there were a
siege. how long do you thinl, the SOL
diers AMI civilians cuu.J live after the

paler answers: Science tells US that il
he can get drinking water IN ordinary
man can exist for tb rty days without
food. 1T Tie end of that time the ma
chincry of the body will not be spoiled
and can lie brought back to its former
strength by careful feeding.
About n qr&rtcr e our body weight
is fat, and it is mostly this fat that is
absorbed as food during tie period Of
starvation. We can absorb and burn
up our mus les until 60 per cent OF
their weight is gone. We can do the
same with from Sd to 40 per cent of
our livers and digestive organs and 20
per cent Of our lungs Our hearts can
lose 10 per cent and our brains and
nervous systems can lose 5 PER cent.
1t will be seen that the more vita
organs-brain and heart-yield least OF
their valuable substance for the life Of
the body, while the less essential sub
stances-fat. muscle fiber. etc.-are con-
sumed first.

ia lori.y and Plurality.

In politics the plurality is the great
est of more than two numbers and is
also the excess of the highest number
Of votes cast for any one candidate
over the next highest number. When
candidate receives out of 10000 votes
cast 4.0c0 and two other candidates
feceive respectively $500 and $500,
the first is elected by a plurality,
though he has received less than a
majority of the whole vote. and be is
said TO have plurality Of 500 votes.
II the numbers are 6.OO0, 1900 and
1000, the majority Is 1900 and the
plurality Is 1900. A ma jority, there
fore. must be more than half the en-.
tire vote cast and a candidates ma
1ority is. then. the difference between
the number of votes he received and
the combined number of votes cast for
all other candidates; his plurality is
the difference between his own num-
Der and the number received by the
candidate nearest to him. Oftentimes
candidate receives a plurality. but
not majority. Unless there Is a tie
there is always a plurality. = Path

A Short Rusins.a Talk.

In certain store the merchandise
manager sent for the ready to wear and
millinery buyers and said to them:
You men are getting bad accumu-
lation of stock that is hard to move.
Hereafter you will make a daily and
weekly inventory and send the report
to this Office"
Both buyers declared this to be i'm
possible. but the merchandise man told
them to go and do it. Especially he
wanted them to show the age of the
goods in stock. the sizes and the colors.
After attempting to take some Of
these daily inventories the buyers de-
cided that an easier way would be to
get busy and sell the goods faster. This
same plan has been used in many de-
partments with fine results.
There Is nothing like the spot light y

HE First Golf PLAY.

teach them the game, The latter tee
Ing up ball on the first, hit 1t straight
down to the broomstick which served
as flag pole. The ball bounced along
the uneven green and disappeared In
the hole. Turning to his astonished
gallery, he remarked:
There, you see, 1t Is very simple
That is the way you do It."
Chandler Egan tried, but didn't sue
