TALK YOUR WORK up.

1 beg Of you, do not talk your
work down. You cannot build it up
by talking it down. If you cannot
talk it up, for gracious sake keep
still and say nothing. g ~->..zla =
We don't have much trouble about
what we don't say. If you must tell
your troubles to someone, tell them
to God, but don't tell them to the
people around about you. No bust
ness man. or professional man or any
other man who has thought things
through properly ever talks about
the difficulties of his work either
publicly or in his work. :
The general of an army should
know full well all the difficulties that
confront him, but the less he saws
about them the better. Knowing and
talking are two different things. 1t
is said that Won Moltke was once
asked to what he attributed the sue
cess Of the Duke of Wellington as a
great general. His answer was that
he attributed it to the fact that he
could hold his ongue in seven differ
emit languages IF we can hold our
tongues in even one language, it will
help whole lot
A cheerful front is half Of the
battle. Don't become sour. Don't
become a grump. Don't become q
sorehead.
Keep seriously sweet or sweetly
serious. Especially in closing work
keep mum and keep sweet no matter
how hard it may be. - +,

SCANDAL.

Did you ever notice that s.talk''
doesn't hurt a man? Perfection isn't
looked for in a man, and when some
one tries to injure man by ranting
about a few faults he has, the absent
one who is probably attending to his
own affairs, is elevated in the hear
er's estimation, while the Informant
is lowered accordingly. If man
knocks along doing fairly well, peo-
pie realize that while he has same
faults, he has more virtues, and they
are charitable enough to overlook
these faults. But it is difficult with
girl or woman. No matter how
good and pure a woman may be, let
someone start an infamous lie about
her and too many people are willing
to pass it,along, and there is always
some one to believe it. That lie can
never be lived down. It may burn
low, but gossip loving lips are ready
with new fuel Did you ever think
how damnably mean some goody-
goody people are in this respect?

WOOLD "CONvERT" THE JEWS.
Some members of the Episcopal
board Of missions favor the raising OF
a fund Of $1,000,0O0 for the purpose
of converting the Jews, because they
are losing faith in Judaism and be.

This move brought a quick retort
from many Of the rabbis, three OF
whom we quote:
attempts to convert the Jew
have never been successful" said
Rabbi Joseph Stolz of Isaiah Temple,
and the thronged synagogues refute
the charge that the American Jew
is straying from his faith"
Rabbi Stolz said that reports that
the Episcopal Church might be in

diculous to discuss. ~e..- .-.-a~

THE IMMIGRANT QUESTION.

The hordes of foreigners who are
planning to come to this country, if
possible, are a menace to the oppor-
tunities Of the native born colored
working people who should be pro-
tected by appropriate legislation.
Two suggestions have been offered
with respect to proposed immigration
legislation, in addition to the per-
centage basis submitted by Senator
Dillingham;. One is that the number
of immigrants permitted to enter
from any particular country be gov
erned, as far as possible, by the per-
centage Of that element of imrnigra-
tion which over a period of, say, the
five years Immediately preceding the
war sought to be naturalized, the
number to be regulated at the ter
mination of each fve-or ten-year
period. Government statistics should
be- available for such solution An
other suggestion is to compel each
Immigrant to hold a license costing,
say, SIP annually so long as he is not
naturalized, without which he could
not be employed. This would pro-
vide, a source of Federal revenue and
subject the immigrant to taxation
which he now escapes. If it is worth
coming here to work, it is worth
paying for the privilege, and those
races which take no interest in this
country other than to receive high
wages and then return should be
penahzed for their Indifference to
American institutions. The colored
people all are citizens and taxpayers,
and their interests should not be
overlooked. ...-- 49,.
