 ''In the office of the American mili- tary attache in Peking, there is an American fiye-dollar gold piece, which has been priced more often than a hold-over pair of 1912 shoes. The of ficers were being paid the days rate, which was then about S1.10 Chinese money for an American dollar. But actual gold was worth 90 per cent more. The officer rightly insisted that his men were being paid in a debased currency and insisted on receiving a balance to bring the salaries up to the rate for actual gold Hence this solitary gold piece was taken around to the exchange shops every month and it's value ascertained, but if it IdQ DCCil SOlNt IL WOulh iloNC upSCt the financial system, for the Chinese, ready enough to offer price for q specific coin, refuse to quote prices on theoretical ones.

THE ROMANCE OF WORDS
"SiNCERE

A T FIRST glance the English A word sincere" would ap- pear to have little connection with "wax"-but, by reason of custom prevalent among Roman builders, that Is precise ly where it came from.
 In ancient Rome workmen ire quently took short cuts and skimped their labors, it being q common practice for marble workers to apply a piece of wax to a clipped part of the stone in order to conceal the defect made by too hasty or too care less stroke. When the sun melted the wax, the defect in the statue or column or pedestal would be at once apparent. Meanwhile, however, the laborer had been paid and the purchaser would find himself with dam aged article on his hands.
 In time, the words "sine cera" (witllout wax) began to appear in building agreements, thus stipulating that the work would be carried out by skilled worlSmen and completed without the use. of camoufiage. Gradu- ally the term book on a broader meaning and was applied to per sons who were believed to be free from defects, who were genuine and who might be safely trusted. In English, therefore, all that is expressed in the one word sincere"

 2 THE GIRL ON THE JOB
 : How to Succeed-How to Get : Ahead-How to Make Good 3 By JESSIE ROBERTS
IN THE OFFICE.

THERE is no better way to waste
 | your time than to work in an office where there is friction between the employees.
 The root of the evil is generally poor organization. If you are given orders by someone whom you do not recognizee as your superior, yeu are likely to get huffy. You don't carry out the orders as you should. The work of the office suffers.
 Every office should have an under standing as to the rating of each em- ployee. If you give orders there must be no mistake in your right. If you take orders you should understand that the person giving them has the authority.
 If the office is small it is easy for the head to give instructions on this point. If it is large it is better to have a chart showing the exact posi- tion of each member of the force.
 But there are other sources Of fric- tIon. A habit of fault finding and criti- cism is an excellent medium for fric- tion. Don't fall into the habit or criticising your superiors. It IS a schoolgirl trick. The entire atmos- phere of an office can be poisoned by it.
 If you are working in an office that

LYRICS OF LIFE
 By DOUGLAS MALLOcH
THE LITTLE GODS.

IS MAN all error, God all truth? l sometimes wonder. Why does
 God
 Put noble hearts in coats uneouth And silken raiment on a clod? Rags for the innocent to wear And for the jade the satin shawl I see such error everywhere
 I sometimes wonder after all. And yet 1 do not wonder long: This topsy-turvy is not His The world of right, the world of wrong, The same today and ever is. If sin wears satin, virtue rags, Iris not Gods fault-it is because We sit upon our money-bags
 And dare to change Gods very laws. Our little time we play the lord, Forgetting God, ourselves are gods. And virtue punish, sin reward, While judgment slumbers, justice
 mods.
 And then some day mighty hand Shall sweep us from our stolen
 throne
 No little gods shall rule the land, But God shall rule, and men atone. The little gods are many-lust. Extrayagance and idleness, And greed that bathes itself in dust, And flippant speech, immodest dress {; The little gods shall rule awhile Their little women, little men And then the Only God will smile And set the world to rights again.

3 SOMETHING TO
 THINK ABOUT
By F. 4. WALKER


cannot go to see one you can surely read the other without great trouhle
 If danger threatens you FACE TT If diversity threatens you FACE IF. If you have lost your job or your money or even your sweetheart put on the best front you know how and battle whatever circumstance presents Itself face to face.
 It is related by Sir Charles Napier that by fearlessly facing tiger he sent it covering back into the jungle. If he had turned away in the slightest degree he would have been killed
 The Psalmist says, "Thou madest him (man) to have dominion over the works of Thy hand. Thou hast put all things under his feet"
 One of the truest things ever said by a politician was the telegram which state of Maine man sent to despairing candidate-"R Remember God hates quitter."
 Everybody hates~a quitter. A man may love and gain applause but a quitter doesn't get even sympathy.
 Face the music. Fight good fight. Then, win or lose, you will have done yourself the credit of trying the best you knew how, of giving the best that was in you, or being down, perhaps, but never out.
