You should be conscious of what you are intended for, and you ehowld set your heart on what that implies, and aim to reach a Dosttion where you wif have the op- Portunity of doing it Love of power ts common: ability to fee it !s rare.

(Tha New York Rvening World), subordinate is @ necessary qualification to becoming a good leader. Deads proverbially are better than words and the captatne of industry are ever looking for capable Neutenants, A larte industrial works is like an army of volunteer troops. A man may enlist as a private, but every private, as un- der Napoleon, carries @ potential mar- sial's baton fn hie knapsack. Tf you hope to aueceed, there {s one quailty which you must possess, and t quality T place above all others— Thoroughness covers more good qual- ites than any other wort In the Eng- lsh language in relation to the work to be done in this world, Whatever your duties and wherever your work may lie, BE THOROUGH. Be DILIGENT, Work always as though the business belonged to you and you were working for yourself. Always be willing to do any work which those over you may call for. Go further, and seek to do more with. out waiting to be asked to do Jt. You should know every detail of your work, Grasp deta!l first; ehed it after- ward. Master every detafl of the work you are responsible for until you under- #tand how It ehould be done and why. Then, when you have stepped up, shed that detail as fast as you can on your subordinates, When you have been promoted to an executive postion, whether of great or little Importance, you should know at least as much, {f not more, about the work than any subordinate; no one under you should know more that ts important about {t than you. Get as big men under you as you can, but always try to be bigger yourself, And {t that implies fresh study and fresh work, do It. Through all your work sténd aquare- ly for what Is right; for integrity straightforwardness and honest dealing. You will tind that doing right not only brings satisfaction but pays best, The man who {@ honest, upright and strhightforward commands the confi- dence of his employers and wins the respect of his assistants and subordi- nates, Tle will lose both In the end if he travels on the other path, Hints for Chris GIRL T met in the shopping district | A @ few days ago rémarked, “I just) heard that Mrs, ———, whom I @hummed with tn the mountains last Sunimer, is going to give me a present) and now, of course, I must give h something.

It is the existing spirit that requires * drastic measures to create a change, These girls appealed to me for advice and I tried to tell them how perfectly foolish they are to give any thought to reciprocity in a gift. I advised them to do just as they feel about it and thelr: circumstances permit, and for that day, anyway, they desisted from | Duying the respective gifts. However, ‘4 tw stil) a question tn my mind if they will have the courage to throw off these bur f reall tmas Shoppers bonds of conventional giving and be- come converts to this new and right spirit of Christmas giving that will eventually demoitsh the existing ex- change system and will make the Christmas season the merry time of joy it should be, As I accompanted these giris that day { noticed many new suggestions for gifts, There were white silk stockings With dainty flowers painted in soft tones along the instep. They are $1.% a pair and would giadden the heart of the gir! who attends dances, A tango set Is an- other acceptadle gift for this girl, These sets consist of alx ornaments in aluminum set with rhinestones, which are easily fastened with ribbons to the evening slipper.
