Charging for Knowing How. American Farnitare Gazette. ( "I paid a bill the other day," said a large manufacturer to ine, "without a murmur, simply because of the way It waa worded. My engineer found that hie hot water pipe would not ' work, and after puttering at it for an hoar eent for a machinist. He both- : ered with it half a day and concluded it moat couie apart. I was much an- ' noyed, for that meant the stoppnge of my factory for a long time. Before I gave theorder to take it to pieces some one suggested that a neighbor j ing engineer be sent for. as be wa a sort of genius in the matter of ma cbinery. He came, and after study ing the pump awhile he took a ham mer and gave three sharp raps over ! the valve. 'I reckon sho'll go now,' ; he quietly said, and putting on steam she' did go. The next day I received a bill from him for $25.50. The price amazed, me, but when I had examin ed the items drew a check at once. '1 he 'All read Ibis way: 'Messrs Blank & Co., Dr. to John Smith For fixing pump, 50 cents. For knowing how $25.' Had he charged me $25.50 for fixing the pump, I should have considered it exorbitant. But 50 cents was rea sonable, and 1 recognized the value of knowledge, so I paid and said nothing." That man evidently knew as much about making bills, the Railway Re view adds, as he did about nxiu pumps. The Men Who Stay. Young mechanics make a very eg re gious mistake, says the Builders' Oa zette, when they begin to think that they do too much for their employers when they work a few moments over time to complete a small task they are performing, just the time whistle blows to quit work. More young men have been kept from receiving an a 1 vance in their wages from this than from any known cause. Employers watch the movement of young men very closely, and the least little thing often times places them in unfavorable light before their em ployers. It is the young man who studies the interest of his employer, and is not afraid to give him a few moments, that gets the rapid ad vancement. He is the young man selected when there are any favors to be granted. I can tell in twenty minutes in any workshop the young man who is most likely to succeed in his trade. He is the last to leave his work, and is al ways prompt in beginning it. These fellows that drop their work at the moment the whistle blows, are al ways the ones that the employer is ready to discharge when business gets a little slack. The young man who takes the in terest of his work at heart, and his employer into consideration, is very rarely laid off in slack times. W. H. & R. S. Tucker & Co.
