It ls Eesontigl to Success in Life, Says John HM, Converse, “The best mgset a young man can have is character. The young man who is honest and upright in all his dealings, and Is entirely free from the use of intoxicants and is temperate in all things, possesses one of the most valuable requisites to success in busi- ness.” Bpeaking on the requisites «s- sential to success, John H. Converse, head of the Baldwin Locomotive Works, made use of that expression before the students at the Plerce school, Philadelphia, “There are three important avenues in business,” he said, ‘'stenography and typewriting, sccounting and sel- ling goods. You will find that in all ordinary business establishments the requirements are, as a rule, one of these three things. There are three things which I think are elements of success in business, They are industry, devo- tion to your employer and cheerful- ness. The world has no place for the idler or the loafer. Many persons per- form their tasks in a prefunctory man- ner, but those who succeed always work for the best interests of their em- ployer. I have seen clerks who will do everything they are told to do, but will do it with a sore and injured man- ner. Always be cheerful in accepting whatever you are assigned to do.” Re ———— LOUALS. C. D.

The owner of the prints insisted that from the tle the box In which the prints were sent to the dealers was opened In the shop no hands but those of the junior partner of the firm were to touch them. The owner stipulated expressly that the member of the firm was to take them out of the box, frame them himself, hang them on the walls and when the show was over follow the prints back through these various stages until a porter was ready to screw the cover of the packing box or again. The prints were so rare and fine that the junior partner cheerfully agreed to all of these conditions for the sake of showing the engravings. That the prints were extremely rare may be appreciated from the fact that before two of them In particular came Into the private collector's possession he made a special journey to Stuttgart, Germany, to see them, and when he logked at them he left an open order to a dealer Iu that eity to buy them. no matter what they cost.
