Uncommon Sense JOHN HAKE ■== 1 —■ BLAMING YOURSELF TT IS always easy to find somebodj A to tflame for your mistakes. Yot are probably misunderstood. Every body Is. You are probably a squart peg In a round hole. So is ever; other unsuccessful person. Doubtless the world is blind to your talent. It was blind to Shakespeare’s talent foi many years. But Shakespeare died a rich and successful man. The temptation to “pass the buck" Is often almost Irresistible. But yield to It till it becomes a habit and you might as well quit now. You will never get anywhere. While most bicycle repairers in one large city. were blaming the collapse of the bicycle boom for their bard luck, Wilbur and Orville Wright were at work on a vehicle that would as far surpass the bicycle as the eagle sur passes the tortoise. They didn’t blame anybody but themselves, and they blamed them selves severely when they made costly mistakes. By and by they found a way t< escape their own blame. Then the] began to succeed. In every office there are clerks thai blame the boss for their lack of oppor tunity. They find an excuse for al their bad work, for the results of theli Idleness. And they are so busy flirt! Ing excuses that they never have tlm» to And the opportunities that an around them. If you don’t want other people tc criticize you, be your own critic Don’t be an easy one either. Mak< your own standard higher than youi boss'. Give him a little more than hi expects, or a -great deal more than hi expects and you will attract his atten Hon. If you don’t attract his atten lion except unfavorably, he’ll begli to hunt for somebody who will, -x There are of course people who an ibused as much as they think the] ire, but you can write on a postagi stamp the names of all such person! fou know. You and nobody else an to blame for yonr failures or respon slble for your success. Be unsparins »f the blame. Check up every day’! ivork and see If It would satisfy yot If you were the boss. If It wouldn’t Jo better work; the next dny. Nobody will' be Interested In youi ileuses or your ‘‘alibis.’’ Everybodj will be,interested In what you reallj iccompjish. You can get somewhen n the world if you try. But you’ll lave to try extremely hard, for then rill be abundant competition. (Copyright by John Blake.) -o Posingof Youth.

BRAY SERVANTS Lit avarr a»n mind his owl M* leu.—Corrutw. THERE la • certain type of pan who thinks, always, that hrnsoM UC8*, even rudeness, to the aervants of his friends shows familiarity with the ways of the world. Let ns hope that these persons are those who have had little chance to get about, little chance' to mingle .with those who know how things should be done—that they are those who have never had servants of their own, and have liad few friends who numbered servants among their possessions, Sometimes, unfortunate ly, we meet women who have always been used to servants who yet have an overbearing attitude toward the servants of their friends. We always suspect that they goaslp with their oign servants. r Now, In the big cities, at least, serv ants resent an appearance, of friendli ness of a too informal sort on their employers' parts. In their relation as servant, especially Where they hava specialized, they wish to assume a deferential manner, just as they wish to have their employers assume a di recting manner. That Is part of the game, 'they expect the same treat ment from their employers’ friends. But there is n manner, between one of overbearing haughtiness atvd onp of ostentations friendliness, that the well bred man or woman assumes to hla friends’ servants. And It Is really only the outward manifestation bf a kindly consideration to others, whatever their rant or walk In life. To begin with, always greet your friends’ servants, if you have visited the house often enough to know them. A simple word of greeting Is sufficient. That is, if -you are a week-end guest In a house, and tjje maid brings a let ter to your door before breakfast, say “Good morning, Jane.” And always thank them, simply, for services ren dered. If 'you call ‘ frequently at a house,'and the same servant always answers the door, remember a simple word of greeting then. Never ask favors of yonr friends’ servants, dither when you are visiting In their homes or when you might be able to make a convenience of them at , some other time.
