THE ROAD TO SUCCESS.
Fill Whatever Job You Hold to th«
Beet of Your Ability.
"In climbing the ladder of success
what have you learned that you could
pass on as aid to other struggling
young men?" I asked H, P. Davison of
J. P. Morgan & Co. "Did you conceive
uny shining goal and bend everything
i to getting there?"
"No," he replied emphatically. "What
ever Job I had was to me always the
very best job in the world, and I tried
to fill it I made no elaborate plans
for the future. If I had any system In
my labor it wcs first to do my own
work; second, to teach the fellow be
low me how to take my place; third, to
learn how to fill the position ahead of
me.
"Boys and young men shoul^not im
agine that their work Is so Unimpor
tant that nobody takes note of how
they do It. It does not take long to
find out whether a boy la on his toes
watching how he can best be of help in
a situation or whether he merely sits
down and waits to be told what to do.
The simple virtues of willingness, read
iness, alertness and courtesy will carry
a boy farther than mere smartness.
"Perhaps It will not be out of place
for me to describe an incident which
may carry a lesson for the young men
you are anxious to help. One day
when I was teller a customer offered
me a very fine gold pen. I went right
into the office and asked If this man
had any loan from the bank. I ex
plained that he had asked me to accept
the gift The bank promptly acted,
and it was not long before the fellow
was in bankruptcy. The simple course
I took saved the bank a good deal of
money."—B. C. Forbes in Leslie's.
EQUINE ARTFUL DODGERS.
Deafness and Lameness That Were
Just Pure Bluff.
We all know, of course, the livery
nag who pretends to be deal You
tell him to "get up," and he getteth not
up; you cluck to him, and he accel
erateth not his pace. Is he deaf? Not
he. You know, by a certain rolling of
his eye and wiggling of his ears, that he
hears you perfectly well. His deafness
is pure bluff. It is like the lameness
which some shrewd old nags sometimes
put on.
Will a horse pretend to be lame when
he is not? Some horses certainly will.
Two or three years ago the Nomad
was driving a livery nag on a road in
Vermont, when the animal Suddenly
began to limp terribly; couldn't go off
a slow walk. It was pretty serious,
for a Journey of about twenty miles
had just been begun. Knowing a man
on the road who was a practical horse
man, the Nomad drove up to his door
and submitted the animal to the ex
pert's examination. The man looked at
the horse's feet, examined his legs—
looked him over thoroughly. "Did the
horse go all right when you started
out?" he asked. Yes; the horse had
gone all right for three or four miles.
"Well," said the expert, "this horse Is
shamming; there Is nothing the matter
with him."
Then he addressed some plain lan
guage to Dobbin, advising him with
some sharpness to cut It all out and go
along as he ought to. The Nomad
touched the horse with the whip, and
he trotted on to the end of the Journey
without the slightest limp.—Nomad In
Boston Transcript
Swearing on the Bible.
The method of swearing by the Bible
came Into use at a very early period,
practically with the establishment of
courts of law in Christian countries.
It was the ordinary method of swear
ing when America was settled by Eu
ropeans and was naturally adopted
here. Oaths were common before the
Christian era, and any form may be
used that conforms to the religious be
lief of the person to be sworn. He
brews are often sworn on the Penta
teuch, keeping on their hats, and their
oath ends with the words, "So help me,
Jehovah." A Mohammedan is sworn on
the Koran.—Philadelphia Press.
He Mad* the Sale.
"Yes, the property Is cheap enough.
Why do you want to sell It?"
"You won't give me away?"
"No."
"Well, sir, it's because I'm the only
man in this neighborhood that doesn't
move in high society; and I'm lone
some."—Chicago Tribune
Sample.
"George didn't keep his engagement
with me last night," said the girl who
was betrothed to him.
"I'd give him a piece of my mind,"
said her mother.
"Just a little sample of married life,"
suggested father.—Cleveland Leader.
A Biting Sentiment _ f
You have to be careful even about
paying compliments. Bill Mixer, who
used to write ads. for a tobacco house,
got himself in bad when he started
writing copy for a butter concern and
wrote "Guaranteed not to bite the
tongue."—Boston Globe.
A Real Autocrat.
"Here's the photograph of a famous
maitre d'hotel. He has a stern and
haughty look."
"Hasn't he, though? I dare say that
fellow wouldn't unbend for any tip less
than a $100 bill."—Birmingham Age
Herald.
Car on the Brain.
"Do you know how to handle an
emergency?"
"Is that going to be one of the new
makes?"—Baltimore American.

bray with the asses and bleat with
the sheep.—Roland.

Smartly Said
It Is not worth while to work your
self to death to make a living.
The man who knows it all—how the
neighbors seek to avoid him!
What's the use of wasting a hundred
words when ten will express your
meaning?
Judging from the names some chil
dren bear, their mothers had the dime
novel hnbit
Simply because your neighbor is a
good cook is no reason w)>y you should
"happen in" just at mealtime so often.
When you're looking for slights you
won't have to be on the lookout long
before you will see them on all sides.
