BOYS THAT ARE IN DEMAND Business Man Wanta One Who la Mod est, prompt, Plesssnt, Industrious and Honest. "What kind of a boy does a business man want?" repeated a shrewd, prac tical man of many concerns, th other day. "Well. I will tell you. In th first place he wants a boy who doesn't know too much; business men general ly Ilk to run their own business, and prefer soma one who will listen to tbelr way, rather than try to teach them new kinds; secondly, they want a prompt boy one who underatands seven o'clock a. exactly seven, not ten minutes past; third, an Industrious boy, who 1 not afraid to put In a lit tle extra work In caae of need; fourth, an honest boy honest In bis service, aa wall aa In mattera of dollars and cents; and fifth, a good-natured boy, who will keep hla temper If hi. em ployer lose, hla own now and then!" "But you haven't said word about his being smart!" waa suggested. "Well, to tell th truth.' waa th rather heiltatlng answer, "that, about the last thing we worry over. Th fact la.
