HOW TO MAKE YOUR JOB PAY BY BEATRICE FAIRFAX CCuinu-'tcr as a Business Asset Every businessman or woman must stand or fall by his qualities of character as well as those of mind. Mental development alone produ ces a "thinking machine"—cold, im personal, mechanical, unlovable. It requires personality—individuality to command the regard and liking and faith of employers or associates or employes. A few years ago the owner and founder of one of New York's larg est specialty houses died and left the "good will" of his business, to gether with its copyrighted name and a controlling amount of stock to one of his trusted employes. Do you know what that meant? 11 signified that the man who had built up an honest house of good character felt that he dared leave the thing he had created to a suc cessor who was related to him only in aims, character and ideals. He knew the name he had made honor is ble would not be smirched—that llie controlling amount of stock be longed to the man who would use it even as the founder of the busi ness had used it. But he knew more—that the very spirit of his lieloved business would continue un der the guidance of his successor. Habits of honesty and loyalty and perseverance are easy to form —or not to form, as the case may be. Character itself depends on these habits. Reputation comes from i haracter. And standing in the business world comes from reputa tion based on character. The big credit systems are based on charac ter as well as on bank accounts. A sudden clever stroke may win recognition for a man or woman. People say, "He struck twelve then." Why does twelve never strike again for that individual? Why can he never again "deliver the goods?" The reason is here: That one suc cess was either an entire accident or an accidental use of powers that nre not trained to come automati i nlly into use all of the time. Char acter and power are built slowly on right habits of feeling and willing and acting. The kind of family into which you nre born and the early training you get happen to you. You do not choose them. Even your physical characteristics are to a certain ex tent beyond your power—but you can choose what you think about and how you act. Through what you WIM- to do. nnd through the habits of WIL.LJNG iOld DOING and ACTING, your fu ture is molded. "The living sense grows but by exercise." That applies just as (Rub Face With Amonized Cocoa | And Watch Wrinkles Go , | I llrnuty Doctor Mn>n Any Woman I May Have Clear, Smooth Skin, J Free from I.lnrx and Wrinkle* j It you have wrinkles or crows I I feet and want to remove them ! 1 don't, stick plasters on your face lor apply dangerous lotions or 1 creams which may injure your I skin, nor resign yourself to' tlie I idea that you must continually be t embarrassed by these marks of 1 time, but go to any good drug- 1 l gist and get a little ordinary I amonized cocoa and apply this I over the wrinkles for a few nights I and you will be surprised to see I how quickly they disappear and I how nicely it brightens up the old 1 dead skin and contracts the cn- Ilarged pores.

The athlete trains himself in a certain way. The student trains his mind as purposefully as the wrestler trains his body. The businessman who wants to succeed has to train his mind and his character. Don't expect "Pull or Luck" or "Favoritism" to give you your chance. Even if the general man ager of a company takes a sudden fancy to the office boy, he cannot make a head salesman out of that boy if the youngster doesn't ad vance himself step by step along the paths that are opened before him. But if the boy is a deter mined little chap and has taught himself to work and think and do the square thing he is bound to rise. The office manager may hand the boy his first chance as a present— the boy .would have earned it for himself anyway. Someone else may .set you on your feet and lead you a few steps. No one else can do your walking for you. Labor Unions Are Urged For Colored Labor in War In an inspiring address before the People's Foruni, in the Wesley A. M. E. Zion Church, yesterday afternoon, Dr. W. B. B. Dußois prophesied that before the war is over colored labor will be thoroughly organized. He urged this is a war measure, show ing the need for colored labor unions. Dr. Dußois is editor of the Crisis, a magazine of the colored laboring peo ple. He spoke with authority, having been in touch with the situation for a long time. Hundreds of people were present at the meeting, and many . were, turned away. Special music was given by a union choir from Wesley and Bethel A. M. E. churches. TO EXAMINES MAII.

"Well, wehave had a evening," Stephen Livingstone de clared as he and his wife entered their house with the four young people. "Won't you gentlemen have a smoke with me before you go home?" Gerald Stewart glanced at the great mahogany clock in the hall. "It is a quarter of one," he said. "Isn't it too late for us to say more than 'goodnight' and go?" "Just wait a moment, please," Mrs. Livingstone suggested, "while I have a word with Milton. There is a lit tle matter 1 want to speak to him about." Milton looked surprised. "Cer tainly I'll wait, Mrs. Livingstone," he agreed, "unless you are too tired. If so, I will come in to-morrow and talk with you." "I will detain you only a moment," she assured him. "Come over into the library with me, please." Dora, looking after the pair as they crossed the hall, shrugged .her shoulders petulantly. "Mother always has soifiething confidential to say to somebody," she grumbled. "Gerald, if you will ex cuse me, I will go upstairs. Good night!" She held out her hand, but did not meet his gaze. "Thanks for a delightful evening. Cyn, I will see! you later." "But, dear child," her father de-j murred, "your mother will be in thcj other room with Milton for only a' few minutes." "I know her few minutes," Dora, rejoined tartly. "I am sure Milton I will excuse my absence. Please ex plain it to him. He won't care, any way." She glanced at Cynthia, and Cyn thia flushed. She remembered how Milton Van Saun had held her wrap for her after supper, leaving Mr. Livingstone to hold Dora's for her. She recalled also that Mrs. Living stone had talked in an aside to Dofa at supper, and now wondered if she, Cynthia, had been the subject of conversation. Again the uneasy j question stirred within her wasj Dora jealous of Milton's evident like for her western cousin? She Thanks Gerald She turned suddenly to Gerald Stewart. "You and uncle will have to be content with my company un-l til Aunt Amanda returns," she said! very clearly, that Dora, leaving the | room, might hear the sentence. Shej should not suspect her cousin of; waiting downstairs to talk to Milton, j "As soon as Aunt Amanda returns, j I will follow Dora's example and re-i tire. Then you two men can have a 1 smoke with uncle." "I will go upstairs for some cigars) now," Stephen Livingstone remark- i ed. x j He disappeared after Dora, thijs leaving Cynthia Long and . Gerald Stewart alone in the drawing room. An awkward silence followed, brok en by Cynthia. "I want to thank you, Gerald," she said. As she met his direct gaze, her eyes wavered. It would not be oasy to deceive this man. "I—l-*— 1 " she stammered—"l do appreciate all that you and Milton have done. If I have not enjoyed the entire evening, it is my fault, not yours." He stepped nearer to her. "You TSARRISETTRO TEEEBKKPH are not happy," he accused. "Your aunt told me that." She looked up, startled. "What has Aunt Amanda told you?" "Nothing that I can repeat," he evaded, "even though they were nice things. But she has also told me that you shrink from going out into society. May I say that X un derstand why?" "Thank you!" she murmured. Their eyes met. In his, she saw a pity such as a brother might have felt for a lonely sister. Yet, jningled with it, was a look of inquiry, as if he was at a loss as to what to think or believe. It was as though he wanted the truth, but shrunk form hearing it. In her eyes the man saw a confi dence that appealed to him. Yet surely that confidence did not indi cate any warmer sentiment. "Did you ever I mean have you ever been sad or lonely?" Cynthia asked, yielding to a swift impulse. "I lost my mother two years ago," he told her simply. "As my father died wben I was a boy, my mother meant home —everything that was precious in the world—to me." An Understanding "Ah, then you understand!" she j exclaimed. "That is the reason you spoke as you did. 1 might have ; known -ou could not have spoken i so if you, too, had not suffered." "That understanding makes us friends, doesn't it?" he queried gent i iy "Yes," she replied, "it does." "Let's shake o nit!" he proposed, holding out his band as he might I have held it out to another man. She laid hers in.it. "Thank you,'' I she said again. The door of the library opposite opened, and Mrs. Livingstone emerg ed, Milton following her. She stop ped short at sight of the tableau in I the room across the hall. There!" she said triumphantly, |to her companion. "What did I | tell you! Now do you believe me? "I have seen all along how affairs ! were going. You and Dora have | not. That is why I warned you, my j dear Milton, not to seem to monop j olize Dora's pretty cousin. I hava i lived many years longer than vou ; have and know the ways of men : tfnd women better than you do. It jis dangerous," she added with a j smile, "to play with matches, my ! dear young man." • "Jt is more dangerous to try to j make them!" was his inwant thought i But he uttered no audible reply. (To Be Continued Wednesday) Important Sector on Western Front Taken Over by Belgians By Associated Press On the British Front In Flanders, Sunday, March 17.—The important coast sector on the western front, which for a considerable time has been held by the French, has been taken over by the Belgians. That King Albert's new army has been able to assume' this additional buVden speaks highly for the condi tion of this comparatively small fighting machine which has battled so valiantly from the beginning. The war minister seemed to reflect the general voice of the army when he said: "Whenever the call comes we shall be- waiting to respond with every atom of strength we have." Cast-off Clothing Needed by Red Cross For Belgium Appeals for second-hand and cast oif clothing, to be sent the Belgian and French refugees, have been made by the Harrisburg Chapter, American Red Cross.

The clothing will be received this week only, and It is urgently request ed that all who possibly can, respond to the appeal with substantial gifts.
