.sstrainhtn Talk Best.

When your words count you don't
need to use so many OF them. It's a
pleasure for some people to talk.
Other men talk under protest and be-
come the best speakers because they
seek the shortest way to adequate ex-
preston. These men always get a
hearing because people know they will
get the facts without orations. And
this is as it should be. Every man
should be able to express himself. He
can learn if he is willing to make the
effort. 1t may scare him half to death
at first, but he will soon find pleasure
in seeing his ideas take action in
others. Whether you are a ready
talker or not you will profit much by
making your talk count.

DOUGLAS FIR WIDELY USED
American Tree Attains Splendid Pro
portions and Is Remarkably As
sertive and Prolific.

Douglas fir is the name given to one
of the best timber trees in the west
ern part of the country. Specimens
are common with diameter of 10
feet, and travellers in the belt where
they grow report having seen them
20 feet in diameter and tapering
straight to a height of from $50 to 300
feet.
The coast range of the Sierras pro-
vides the best trees. Only the IA
nous redwood and two or three other
growthS exceed the fir in size, and
none except the yellow pine produces
so much commercial timber. The tree
is sometimes styled the Oregon pine,
but forpsters say it is more of a hem
lock. It's botanical name is false
hemlock," although that designation
is not generally approved.
1t is one of the most assertive and
most prolific of timber growths. For
esters say that no other produces so
many trees to the acre, and when a
grove is started it crowds out growths
of other species. 1t finds wide va
riety of uses. being made into tele
graph poles, ship masts and derrick
bOoms, and is also used for interior
finish. Coarse and fine-grained woods
are turned out from it, according to
the age. The annual rings are not
nearly as thick after the first century
or so Of growth as in the earlier years,
and so the same tree may yield more
tkan one grade of timber. Full-grown
trees are more than 100 years old.

Many Still Read Dickens.

Charles Dickens has been ruled out
by class of the. younger literary
critics as a decided back number. but
the statement by his British publishers
that during the past three years the
sale of his books has been almost dou-
bled seems to refute that idea. Some
of Dickens novels sell more than Do
600 every year, and he has been dead
forty-eight years. His sales curing the
last ten years have been larger, 1t Is

Dicky Morgan, the living and the dead
without the boon Of the supernatural
to separate them. And yet he felt that
the wfckedness of what he had done
was the wickedness of Dicky Morgan,
and that he, Hilliard, the soul, was sit
ting in impartial Judgment on Dicky
Morgan, the flesh. He conceded the
wrong; he conceded the penalty !;
nevertheless, his youth cried out to
him for mercy.

At first, billiard was untouched by
the shock; the force of it seemed to
pass over him entirely; then all at

it. his hands began to tremble violent

Of personal confidence, not oGly for

also for this grossly profitable fraud.
Dimly, he argued just as Harmon
claimed, he couldn't be in harder

shook him.

him critically, took out his fountain

''I'll write you your check for COM

"Come on in" said Hilliard, and his

utes? You've lost all your pep. You
look as though you've seen ghost"
Maybe 1 have" said billiard, with
short laugh.
"Well?
Hilliard regarded him with an odd
intermingling Of respect and alarm.
The respect was a holdover from the
past-from the early impression he
had formed from Harmon's resplend-
ent offices in New York, and HarmOn's
contempt for money. He had consid-
cred his employer, at worst, weak
principled vendor of legitimate securi-
ties.
"Mr. Harmon" billiard said re-
luctantly. I'm in a mighty awkward
position. We can't afford to
let anything spoil this campaign, can
WEI"
Not if we can very well help it.
What's bothering your
For over ten weeks now, I've been
building up a reputation-you know
what I've been doing; you know how
much depends on it. Your name hasn't
been mentioned once; I've been selling
this thing on my own personality
holding myself out as the principal.
Well, the man who called me outside
just now-and mes one of the solid
banking crowd up here-he spoke of
you as though he knew you. In fact
to be perfectly frankie called me
out there to ask me about you. Now
/ don't know what dealings you've
ever had with him, or with anyone else
up here, but it struck me that if there
is anything between you and Syracuse,
or any of its fairly big men, perhaps
it would be better if knew it. You
see, this thing I'm selling is so darned
personal"
'Who was he?" Harmon's voice
rasped.

What did he have to say?"
1T wasn't so much what he said as
the way he said it. / suppose you've
had some disagreement with these peo-

"Some disagreement" admitted Har
man, grinning. "These upstate farm
ers and love each other like a couple

said billiard, hesitating, I'D rather

later. It's almost sure to, now that
Embree's seen you and spoken to me
about you. And if you've had any
quarrel with this crowd, even if it
wasn't your fault, and if it came out
that I'm working for you, and there
was any talk about it, you 1an see
how I'd have to be on the defensive.
SO if you could just give me a
