Honesty and industry are requisite of success in business. The young man who is determined to become very wealthy must therefore cultivate per sons who are honest and industrious, writes Don Marquis in the New York Sun. Honest and industrious persons are very apt to believe in the integrity of otiiers, and this makes it far eas ier for an enterprising young man. to do business with them advantageously than if they were self-seeking and sus picious. Profits are always to be de rived from honesty and industry. If the thing is managed cleverly. Thrift cannot be too highly com mended. Teach ail those with whom you come in contact to be saving. You never know when yon may need their savings to finance one of your ven tures. Analyze any great fortune and you will find tliat it is built of small savings^ Sobriety cannot be too higlily praised. The staid and sober person is dependable. You can count on lilm receivhig a certain calculable income year in and year out; and If you have enough persons of this sort on your list you are building on a solid foun dation; there need be notliing hap hazard about your methods. Steadily, so many hours a day, a reliable, specified number of sober me thodical persons are piling up for you eagh his modest proportion of incre ment, and at stated seasons it be comes yours. Just as the apiary gar ners a proportion of the lioney from the hives. The wastrel may have mon ey at t'lnes, and it is usually easy to get it away from him wheii he 1ms it; but he is not dependable; there will always be occasions w-hen others will get to him. first. Build your own list, and make your relations with the persons on it perma nent. It is better in any event never to associate with wastrels. They are not moral persons, and you must be come known as a man with moral as sociations. This Is a great help in business. Diamond Cut Diamond. William .T. Bums, seated at his des(k in his Washington office, said during an interview: “Sometimes, again, we oppose guile with j^ile. We out-Herod Herod. For example: “A doctor was visited by a man and a boy. The man said: “ ‘Doctor, this here’s my son. His school teaclier gave him a whaok on the ear yesterday wlial ruined his hearin.’ Ju^ write me out a paper, will you, so as I can claim damages?’ “The doctor saw at a glanre tliat he had a case of fraud before him. He tried all kinds oi noises on the boy,, but nothing would make the \velf- coached youngster hear him. So final ly he looked Into the Injured ear with a little mirror, saying at the same time in a whisper to his assistant: “‘Dear me, It’s as I thought. The whole organ seems to' be destroyed. I can’t see very well Inside, though. Hand me that large knife,' please, so that I can cut the outer ear off.’ “With a yell like a Comanche In dian the boy dashed out of the room, and that was the end of the case against the school teacher.” Cow IMoose Skilful Boxer. In the northeni and western forest regions of Canada the snow piles deep ly throughout the ^^inter. In these forests roams the king of the deer family, the moose. To combat the high- piling drifts, the animals gather in little bands of from three to a dozen head and trample down the snow over certain limited areas. Thus, when the snow lies all around them, from three to eight feet deep, the moose ha»e e small stretch of country packed hard, so they ean get around easily to browse ofl^ the surrounding trees. From these “yards,” as they are called, the moose are at times driven by wolves or by dogs and men. The animal fiounders through the deep snow till it is exhausted, and then proves an easy prey to its pursuers. Though she has no horns, the cow moose possesses dangerous weapons in her two forefeet, which can strike for ward with the skill of a boxer and deliver most telling blows. Stops Planes Cotton Waste. Cotton waste, which has long been used in cleaning ail kinds of machin ery, has been banned In the workshops of the Canadian air service. When airplane engines are overhauled and waste Is used, the engines have offer stopped when they were afterward placed in service, “These cases have appeared to l)e due^ not to waste being accidentally left in the engine parts, but to an ao cumulation of snmll pieces of cotton thread that had been left on engine parts after cleaning with waste,” says Lieut. Col. E. W. Redman, director, technical section. Air Board. He urges that commercial companies also pro hibit such use of waste.—By Science Service. London’s Literary NighlR.

STRONH iN BODY % Men of Genius by No Means an Unhealthy Lot Livea ef Many of the Worid'e Omatett Men Show That Mental Power an4* Strength Go Together. The popular idea that geniuses are usually physical weaklings or men of poor health is vigorously combated by Prof. Rudolph M. Binder of New York university. As a matter of fact, says PrCfessor Bender, according to the New York Sun, it is only because there has been so much comment about the comparatively few physical weaklings who were geniuses that the tradition has grown that exceptional mental power and bodily weakness are related conditions. Declaring his belief that there is no weakling genius who would not have been a greater one had he been of sound body. Professor Binder points out that most of the world’s greatest geniuses were not only heaitliy, but often of more than ordinary physical strength. "Illustrations of this could be ex tended indefinitely," said Professor Binder, “but it is necessary to men tion only a few shining examples down the ages. 'Let’s begin with Soc rates. The great philosopher served as a hoplite, which means that he was a member of what we in modem terms would designate as shock troops. He was seventy years old when he was condemned to drink the hemlock. “Coming down many centuries. Sir Isaac Newton lived to be eighty-five, and was strong and healthy and a hard worker till Within a short time of his death. Darwin was bom with a rug ged constitution, which he ruined by his failure to care for it, but it enabled him to accomplish a remark able amount of work before he died at the age of seventy-three. “If proof were needed that Herbert Spencer was bom with an iron consti tution it would be provided by that in cident of his boyhood when at the age of thirteen he walked 48 miles one day, 47 the second and 20 the third, and with very little food during the three days. Spencer is anotheir man whb injured his health by the lack of care ot himself, but if he had not been naturally strong he would not liave lived to be elghty-three. "Even Shakespeare who died at fif ty-two, might be said to have lived a good life considering the amount of work he did as playwright, actor ami manager. Goethe, an exceedingly busy man, was in good health almost to the time of his death at eighty-three. “Of the four probably most famous Italians Dante lived to be only tifty- eight, but bis life was one of arduous labor; Leonardo da Vinci, an athlete who outstripped far younger men in feats of strength, was nearly sixty- seven; Michelangelo worked furlousI^ most of his ninety years, and Galileo enjoyed good health till his death at seventy-eight. “It was because the population aj- a whole was strong In body that Ath ens produced such a remarkable num ber of geniuses in the days of its glory and if we want to Increase tlie num her of geniuses in the world totlay the way to accomplish it is to improve the health of all the people.” Flowers Unfold in Four Serlee. A floM'er is usually made up <Jf four different kinds of parts, arranged in circles, or whwls, one within the other. Outennost are the sepals, making up the calyx; they are usualy firm and green. They protect the bud and steady the opened flower. Next come>^ the petals, making up the corolla-: they are usually delicate and colored, often fragrant and often making nec tar; they thus attract insect visitors, and they are also useful m protecting the even more important parts further in. The third whorl consists of the red- iike stamens, whose heads or anthers make the golden yellow fertilizing dust or pollen. The innermost parts of the fourth tier are the carpets, which bear microscopic egg cells, each of which, if fertilized, will develop Into an em bryo plant; or, to put it in another way, the carpels bear possible seeds or ovules, which become real seeds when the fertilizing golden dust penetrates into them. How Rodents Spent Nights. Spying on the night habits of mice and other small rodents is now occupy ing the attention of Vernon Bailey of the biological survey of the Depart ment of Agriculture. He lets some of them sleep on a sleeping porch and flashes a light on them at various times. Others spend the evening with him in the library. Another lot he has placed in a room at outdoor temperature so that he can find out how they hibernate for the winter. Mr. Bailey Is observing a bat in ad dition to 15 different kinds of rodents that he captured alive in Arizona last spring, and he also is studying his beavers that live at the National Zoological park.
