Whereon, in his divine equality.
Two loving hearts may meet,

A tempest everlasting,
And Jove hath made it of a kind.

NEW YORK, July 22 A famous
tragedy of fity years ago was brought
to the minds of some old New York
ers recently by a court proceedings
involving the estate of a man who
made a large fortune in the tobacco
business here. The ilobacconist was
the employer of Mary Rogers, a beau
tiful girl, who was killed in Sibyl
Cove, near the Elysian Fields, in Ho
boken. In those days "the fields"
was a resort similar to Coney Island,
except that it was much smaller. The
one hotel of the place, "The Shades,"
a capacious colonial mansion, is said
to have been in its earlier days the
summer home of the first Astor.
One night a man living near the
place saw three men carry a woman
from "The Shades" vAer toward the
cove. The next day there was much
excitement when it became known
that Mary Rogers bad been murdered.
The police never caught the men re
sponsible fcr the girl's death. The
crime is likely never to be forgotten,
since it forms the basis of one of Ed
gar A. Poe's best romances.

Old man Burton was a saver, if not
a miser. He was a widower with one
son, Johnny, who was kept so close
so far as spending money was con
cerned that he had no idea his father
was rich. How should he have when
the property was all in gilt edge bonds
hidden away in a box in the vaults of
a savings and investment company?
The boy wTas sent to school till he was
sixteen years old, then put to work.
One day when Johnny was twenty
two years old his father died and the
young man was astounded to fiud him
self in possession of securities worth
half a million of dollars. From hav
ing nothing to spend except what he
needed for necessities out of $1,000 a
year he had now $25,000.
Though John was a very plain young
man, with not much education, and ut
terly unreared to the ways- or a gen
tleman, he had good common sense.
He realized early that no matter how
rich a man is he can spend but a mod
erate sura without injury to himself;
that to enjoy recreation one must first
work, and that, as the old song says,
"there's . no place like homo." Act
ing on these principles, be set him
self to the task of getting a wife who
bad the same quality of sense as him
self. One who had been brought up in
aliluenee would be ashamed of liirn;
one who had been brought up in pov
erty would not likely find herself mar
ried to. a man with a large income
without losing her head.
"How was he to proceed? He had
few, if any, acquaintances with young
women. By setting up an establish
ment he Amid easily make acquaint
ances, but he was modest enough to
think they would only care for what
they could get out of him. Those who
were refined would look down on him
while spending his money, and those
who were not refined would not know
how to spend it.
John had never heard of the great
caliph, Haroun-al-Itaschid, who went
about disguised, looking into the af
fairs, of his subjects, in order to right
wrongs, but he adopted similar means.
He applied to a typewriter manufac
turing company for a position as sales
man. Purchasing a horse and wagon
suitable to his purpose, he went about
from house to house, supposedly look
ing for customers, but really looking
for a wife.
His clientele were largely women, and
most of these were young. His meth
od of making acquaintances proved
available. True, out of the many he
visited he made the acquaintance of
but few. One great advantage he had
none of the girls he visited was on
her guard, and he Was surprised to see
how many were selfish, heartless and
uuamiable. Many were the snubs he
received, now and again a girl got
up for fascinating purposes slamming
the door in his face with a harsh
"Don't want any typewriters." John
could not help thinking how different
would be his reception if she knew that
he was looking for a wife to help him
spend $25,000 a year.
One morning he called at a house
where he was received at the door by
a nice looking young woman, who said
to him kindly:
"I would be glad to buy a typewriter
of you for two reasons. In the first
place, I could make money if I owned
one, and, in the second, I always sym
pathize with those who are compelled
to make their living by canvassing. I
know' how hard it would be for me to
do that kind of work, and I can under
stand how hard it must be for you."
"That's the first bit of sympathy I've
got since I began this work. Would
you mind letting me come in and rest
a few minutes? I've not made a saie
for so long that I'm a bit discouraged."
"Certainly. Come in."
She took Johnny into a living room
and, disappearing, returned with some
bread and butter and cold meat on a
plate. "You look hungry," she said.
"I'm afraid you've not had a good
meal today."
John offered to sell the girl a type
writer ou easy terms, Teuiug ntjr
the same time that his employer paid
him his commission" down. It was this
desire to help him that decided her.
She could get work If she had tie
typewriter to do it with, and the terms
offered were all notes, no cash. She
was sure she could meet the notes and
make something besides.
John collected the money on the
notes himself, and they were all paid
at maturity. He lingered frequently
when making his collections, and in
this way an intimacy grew up between
the two. A time came when John told
her that he was doing much better
than at his first visit to her and
thought that he would like a home if
she would help him build it up. The
young lady put him off till she could
fiud out something about him. He was
very methodical in the matter of giv
ing her references, taking care to in
struct those he referred to to say noth
ing about his means.
The young woman on receipt of the
testimonials that John Burton bore
an .excellent character consented to
help- him build a home, continuing her
typewriting. A mouth before their
marriage John confessed to her how
he had looked for a wife on his own
plan and told

Just by the loudness of these two syl

is working as it should do.
Supposing the "dup" is very loud, for
instance, that tells him that the valves
are being "slammed to." just as a door
is. and that the pressure is greater
than it should be. The cause of this is
generally what is known as an "aneu

The Stuff Successful Men Are Made of
The International Correspondence Schools are NOT closed- in
summer - All of cur truly ambitious students those who think more
about the increased salaries their studies will qualify them to earn,
than of the imaginary discomforts of summer study devote a part or
each week to their studies all summer.
A student who will only study in cold weather punishes himself.
Why' Because he takes two or three times as long, in preparing him
self to earn more money, as the student who studies from a half hour
to an hour per day all the year round. We have enough letters on file
to make several very large books, the general purport of which is:
"Oh if I had only taken up that Course when I first wrote you about
it' ' I have just missed a fine position, at largely increased wages, be
cause I wasn't prepared to fill it. I lacked just the special knowledge
I could have had from the Course." The writers of these letters never
have to be coaxed to study in summer NOW. They knew what delay
costs. Why not profit by THEIR experience, instead of taking the
same bitter medicine yourself?
Persons that suffer most from the heat are those that have notn
ing else to occupy their thoughts. A man who is interested in his
studies doesn't know how hot it is. He has no time to fret about tha
weather. He is looking ahead a few months to the time when he can
demand advancement in position and salary, because his special educa- ,
tion will have made his services of more value to his employer. It is
no harder to read an Instruction Paper in summer than to read a news
paper. How many summer days are hot enough to prevent you from
reading the daily news? ,'
The man who promises himself that he will enroll next fall is
in., n Aofoivo his conscience. He may not know it, but he
VJlllJ UJI"b wvr " - ' - -
is weakening his will-power, and it is will-power power to do what
one knows he must do to succeed that makes the man. A man of
weak will one who will study some day, but not now will always
be down in the world; always in "hard luck," frequently out of work,
and when employed, it will always be at low wages. He knows that a
knowledge of certain subjects will fit him to earn more; yet he stills
his conscience by promising to start later. Such a man isn't. truly am-
'bitious He is one of the kind that always does the hard, menial work,
and draws small pay all his life. Are YOU one of that kind. Are TOU
truly ambitious to earn more and make something of yourself? If you
wont study in summer you are NOT. If you prefer to fret about hoc
weather, rather than forget it by studying, you are NOT.
The dangerous habit of "putting off" has ruined the lives of more
promising young men than drunkenness. It is so easy to say yes,
'it's what l need; I'll start tomorrow next week some other time.
The" difference between the man that makes a failure of life and the
man that succeeds is simply this: The failure is going to begin tomor
row;" the success begins today.
The men who "get there'' are those that study for self-improvement
in summer, or whenever they have time. They don't let the
weather keep them in inferior posiions, at small wages. They don t
make excuses to themselves when they ought to be up and doing.
They don't work for wages barely enough to keep soul and body to
gether either.
