is charged up to his carelessness Instead

Autocrat Gets Hold of Business.
The writer once knew of a case where
a typical autocrat In business acquired
the control of another small concern,
lie had an authoritative, tjulck way of
speakingdifficult to understand. And
he detested people who asked questions.
Acting as manager of the newly ac
quired business was a masterful man.
After the autocrat had been in charge
he came into the office of the previous
manager, glanced over the market quo
tations and got busy."
"Moll ao and so at such a price. Buy
so many shares of Amalgamated Steel.
If the market goes down to 60 on
Louisville-Illinois, snap up 200 shares."
All this was spoken as If he had a set
of false teeth In his mouth and they
were wabbling about, piaioissing the
former manager with a curt "That's all,"
he grabbed- hold of the telephone to call
some one up. But the other. In quiet
but determined tones, asked for a repe
tition of that part or the order on which

Often the difference between' the f 7S
and the 1 100 per month stenographer
la slight. I'urhttpa It la a difference of
16 words per minute in shorthand, and
10 words a minute on the machine. It
certainly would pny many men to de
vote their leisure time to acquiring the
additional speed In adding figures or
typewriting which lead, to so respect

Firm May Have Changed Policy.
This may be true In thousands of
cases. If It were not there would be
no such distinctions as success and fail
ure In the world. The fact la overlooked
that ths vast majority of the failures
In the world are Inevitably In the be
ginning of the young man's career.

sary to compel respectful attention. If inevitable failure.
a man walks into a place with a hang
dog, shamefaced, ecuse-me-for-belng-here
kind of air, he's going to get the
frosty hand In no time.
Belling goods largely la a battle of
wills, and the stronger will generally
prevails. The salesman all along wants
to watch that the customer doesn't get
the upper hand. If he does, he will
look like some prospective employe
being pumped by an employer. Of
course. It Is necessary to answer ques
tions civilly, but he who stands on ths
defensive too much usually gets the
worst of the transaction.
Are you master or mastered? If you
fall Into the latter claaa, by all means
strive to get Into the former. It will
pay you. Pon't be like "dumb driven
cattle," at the mercy of circumstances,
or trust to chance and fickle fortune.
Aim to build on the solid, enduring foun
dations of laborious effort and accurate,
trustworthy work.
One food way for a man at all times
to feel master of himself Is to possess
a good savings account. He who con

I know nothing In the conduct of busi
ness In all its branches which presents
more possibilities for pitfalls than the
intangible thing known ns business
"good will." This good will of a busi
ness, intangible as It la, at the some
time Is otiu of the most tangible of
assets of that particular business. It Is
intangible enough to escape taxation.
It Is Intangible enough that while It
may sell at great advance over the
material effects of a house, there Is no
assurance that the purchaser can hold
It. In the hands of the organisation
which created It this good will Is all
Important and supreme, however, and
how It may deceive that young man who
considers such a business aa his school
Is one of the simplest of demonstrable
things.
Big Firm Has Choice of Men.
That ths one concern which possesses
this good will in marked degree shall
stand preeminently above Its competi
tors will bs granted. That one concern
has the choice of applicants who would
train for that particular field of work.
Therefore the ranks of the applicants
are crowded.
Elsewhere In the competitive field
Here Is the question to be decided.
That good will possessed by Jones may
have been based upon the methods and
records of his father, who handed over
the business to tho son when he retired.
The basis of the business may have
been an old conservatism of gnarled,
rugged growth. Long ago that conserv
atism may have reached the limit of Ita
growth. It la a memory, rather than a
live, active organisation and purpose.
Schooling there may be as Impossible ns
the learning of Latin and Greek for so
cial conversation. Stagnation at tho
beat may mark It. Dry rot already may
be making Its foundation Inroads unBeen
and unnoticed.
Brown, on the other hand, may have
no prejudices aroused npalnst him, even
while he has failed to earn the good will
that could be hla. His methodB are
square and above suspicion. There are
possibilities for him yet If he only
would see. ' Shall that young man who
feela himself capable hesitate as be
tween Jones and Brown? Hhull Jones
levy salary tribute upon Mm because of
a prestige that has only a memory for
its foundation?
What sort of men has that house de
veloped In the last 10 yearn? Where
are its graduates? What are they do
ing in tno world?
Theae are the vital questions of the
young man who would begin his world's
work. I.et him discover If a hide-bound
consrvatlsm Is strangling the oppor
tunities of a concern which Is renting
upon Ita laurels won years before. Let
him weigh himself and from knowledge
gained of such a house, try to fit his
personality Into It as a prospect. It
will be worth his while. It will be
worth all the time and consideration
which the young man may bo able to
spare the questions and analyses that
boar upon this first great problem of
his life. His sucooss may depend almost
wholly upon a satisfactory decision for
himself.
"We succeed because we still do our
own work that is. the bulk of It." said
one of the two, "and thus we eliminate
ths servant question. Not but what we
have our troubles, now and then, but
we are up to date and give good valufc
for the money and the "hoys' know It.
We make our own rules, and they know
they must 'toe the mark' or go. Now
and then a 'smart Aleck' gets In, but
he either reforms or leaves. One
smarty surreptitiously took out a bed
slat from each bed In the house, and
at night first one bed, and then an
other came thundering down. But we
stopped that nonsense In double quick
time. A thing like that would spoil
ths tone of our establishment. Another
time a youth began dancing & jig on
ths walk right In front of the house.
I said, 'Bee here, if you want to danoe,
go into the street!' O. the" know we
are strict, und that's why we get the
good class that we do. We demand
pay In advance and wo get It, and we
could have twice as many boarders if
we had room for thetn. The fact Is,
we are up to duHe and give them mod
ern, scientific cooking."
When one watches the phenomenal
success that often Is made in the res
taurant business the marvel is thut
more do not enter this field. Tho chef
of one of the famous hotels of the
country, although making a flno salary,
decided that If ho branched out for

The specialising In cookery on the

of Immense advantage to woman. One
may find purchasers for any one "deli

such a famous pickle that the nmirby

The wife of an obscure bucher, an old
country woman, once sent a pltcherful

The soup was savory, full of delicious
surprises in the way of little meat

flavor. It was un-American not the

purchaues. The little shop became too
crumped; a more commodious market
was built on the business artery of that
ouarter of the city; and "soups'1 and
cooked meats are among Its distinguish
ing features.
Baked Hams Bring Trade.
One large grocery establishment owes
a great part of Its Increased sales to
Its Introduction of "baked ham." Other
stores sold boiled or steamed ham, but
this was the only place In town where
baked ham, specially prepared in the
firm's own ovens, oould bs secured.
There Is more real success wrought
by one's taking the Initiative than one
has any Idea of. People are pleased
by novelty.
Two bachelor girl, of 60 odd years
thought they were not too old to branch
out Into a new business. They had
lived and worked together for over to
vears, slaving at the needle, until
nerves and health had given way. They
used up their "rainy day fund" In tak
ing a complete reat cure, and then with
empty uraes and stout hearts faced
anew the problem of existence. Fate
had deprived them of a housekeeper's
of his name of chef of the hotel of his
city acted as a lodestone to draw
thither aU the old epicures. The res
taurateur made a stiff charge for every
thing. His prices were higher than
thoae of his competitors, but this, too,
drew attention to the place; and those
who had the "price" paid It, to spy out
the new land. The natrons began talk
ing about the peculiar excellences of
the place, and so their friends and their
friends' friends crowded In to see the
old-time chef acting as chief usher and
host in his new buHlness. His affabil
ity and strong personality gave a home
like as well as European flavor to the
place, nnd people who liked French cook
ing with KnglJsh names on the mfenu
card flocked in.
The talu of so sudden a success looks
like luck, but it isn't. It is caused by
scientific study of conditions as they
exist, on the part of the asnlrant for
moneyed success.
Cooking Is old, the oldest of occupa
tions, but Its modes change. It is a
mine of Wealth to those who know how;
but the worker must bring to the work
a knowledge as scientific as that pos
sessed by a civil engineer.
The day has gone by when a woman
can take a piece of stale bread and an
old doughnut and make therefrom "the
most delicious pudding." and at the
same time be a successful boarding
house keeper. Her time Is gone by; she
