Aro you workiDg for some big com
pany? Do you get discouraged? Do
you feel that you aro underpaid; that
your efforts are unappreciated; that
your work is too burdensome; your
hours too long, and your position not
abreast with your ability? Perhaps
you are envious of what you oall the
"gqod luck" of tho heads of depart
ments, or of tho man who controls the
entire business. You seo your em
ployer rido to tho store in tho morn
ing and step out of a handsomely ap
pointed carriage, ora four-cylindered
auto, and say to yourself: "If I had
his money and his position 1 would bo
happy." But you arc a good worker
and an honest worker, and in a fow
minutes you dismiss your pessimistio
thoughts and sro earnestly at work
contributing yot>.r share toward the
upbuilding of your employer's busi
ness. And, like every man who suc
ceeds, we hope you do moro than you
are psid to do, for then when your
day's work ends you are light-hearted
in the joy of a duty more than dis
charged. You start home tired, but
with a clear conscience, and with no
responsibility left unsolved. As you
step out the door into the autumn air
you suddenly reoali that you didn't
see your employer leave.' You glance
at your watch and note that your oar is
due, sod that you will get home just
in time for supper.
"You dismiss all thoughts of work
from your mind aa yon head home

When he went to MB breakfast that
morning he read his morning paper.
His eye was attrsoted to the first-page
story of the failure in a neighboring
Stale of a national bank in whioh one
of his biggest customers is a director,
whose deposits were in that back, and
whojmust help bear sny difference be
tween assets and Habilites. This
means a delsy on the part of his cus
tomer in meeting his accounts; it may
involve an untimely request for ex
tension of oredit on the part of your
employer. Would you bo worried if
you were in his plaoe?

invaluable nobor must bo met with
dismissal. Thero are a score of snarls
and tangles that must be settled
quickly and fairly that the serenity of
tho business may bo undisturbed.
Would ali this disturb you and put a
look of caro on your countenance?
You would advise with your heads
of departments, auk them for their ad
vioo, plan with them, that is your
suggestion to your employer.
Very well; you know human nature.
Havo you never said to a oo-worker
that this head of department is play
ing for a favorite's place, or that one
is obsequiously in accord with every
Buggestion of tho employer whether
tho idea is good or bad? Where do
you think your employer 6tands? He
is isolated. Doubt hovers over him
frequently, for he can never know just
how much sincerity a man is display
i ag, nor how muoh a man's view is
warped by the desire to agree with
"tho boas." If ho asks an opinion,
do not the men often seek to figure
out what they think he wishes them
to say. Seldom does he eooounter a
man of strong enough will to venture
to make a bold stand io opposition to
his employer's ideas, and point out
dangora that lie ahead.
So the employer must rely to the
greater extent upon his own judg
ment. He must move surely yet
swiftly. He has tho entire business
to provide for. At. times ho may seem
harsh in a ruling, cold blooded in a
dismissal. His firmness and his
ability-his continuance of hard-won
suooesB-means a preserving of the
oompany, projecting a bigger business
and, not altogether incidentally, pro
viding the means of a livelihood for
you and hundreds of others.

did not stop to think that 500 times
50 cents is $250 per week, or nearly
$15,000 por year.
But this i? not a sermon against suc
cess. It is merely a suggestion that
all of ?B havo something to be thank

perhaps thoy have greater and more

Be whole-hearted and wholesome irr

The Hoad to Heaven.
Senator Davis, of Minnesota, told
this onej concerning Bishop Whipple,
the venerable "St. John of the Fron
tier," says the Los Angeles Times.
In a passenger coach going into Ba-,
kota territory the bishop sat reading
the morning newspaper, and the sec
ond seat before him sat an infidel who
was loudly proclaiming his antipathy

by religious people. He said he
wquld dare to meet Soy pris?t, prophet
or. pope in discussion, and loudly pro
claimed: "If I could meet old Bishop
Whipple, I'd ask st least one question
he couldn't answer,"
"l am old Bishop Whipple," said
the venerable apostle to the Indians,
as he dropped his newspaper, "ask
me your question now."
The fellow was startled, but aoon.
reoovered and said: "Well, bishop,
as saving souls is in your line,. I'd
like to know if you can tell me the
straight road to heaven."
"That ia very easy, indeed," re
sponded the bishop with his saintly
smile. "Turo to the right and go
straightforward." .

Jugging on the Mississippi.
I don't know as this can bc classed
as game fishing; but when the water
was clear and low and tho channel
catfish were hungry, it is very excit
ing sport, which in rny younger days
I often indulged in with thc keenest
enjoyment, writes S. E. Worrell in
Forest nod Stream. But it is too
hard work for an old man, and our
great river has been so thoroughly |
draiood by the market men with their
bait and trammel nets, trot lines and
drag seines it promises vory uncertain
returns now.
I was co ???urtuuai? aa io bu
obliged to remain a month at Ham
burg, Calhoun Couniy, Illinois, a
small landing some fifty miles north
of St. Louis, oootaining two trading
stores, whose chief sales wore tobacco,
.lugar aud calico, and about a dozen
.iweliiiigs. To this day this country
is designated as tho "Kingdom of
Calhoun," owing to its isolated and
peculiar oondition. While the sur
rounding territory is very populous
and fertilo, with all the usual facili
ties of business and intercourse, this
is isolated by being bounded on the
west and south by the Mississippi and
Illinois rivers.
It is a long, narrow strip of hilly
land, thereby unfitted for the usual
agricultural producto, sparsely popu
lated by the old-timers, who have
always exhibited the greatest antipa
thy to the negro, not one of whom bas
been allowed to locate there, and they
even object to their traveling no roo o
their district. Formerly this oountry
was heavily timbered, and its obief
products were cordwood and the best
oak barrel stuff and railroad ties that
were carried to the river landings and
boated to, St. Louis; but these trees
were cleared out twenty-five years ago,
and, the hills being well adapted for
fruit culture, they introduced numer
ous orchards, and now export large
quantities of our Den Davis, or "Red
Missouri" apples.
Up to ten years ago ?he "Kingdom
of Calhoun" did not oootain a tele
phone, telegraph or express office,
and today has no railroad, while the
boundary counties are netted with
them. Neither does it afford any
gamy fishing streams or lakes. For
tbiB reason, having nothing to do but
wait for the slow tow of a heavily
loaded bargo of machinery up the
river, I grev very weary until I
thought of jugging, for wbioh the
stage of the Mississippi was particu
larlp favorable at that time.
It will be understood, as thc name
implies, that ibis sport simply re
quires a dozen or so of corked jugs, to
the handle of whioh is scoured a stout
cotton line about No. 36, three foot
long, and a catfish book baited with
almost soy thing from old meat to
spoiled oho eso rind.. Marketmen
generally uso tin cans or dry, white
pine floats for this purpose. I found
this tnokle st ooo of the stores, acd
from that time until my departure I
supplied froe of cost all the town of
Hamburg with the finest chancel oat?
Gsh, whioh, by the way, is excellent
eating; especially 'for people who en
joy a buffalo or even "Dutoh" oarp.
"German"' is too respectable a name
for this contemptible class of the
finny tribe.
To illustrate the details o! this
sport I will give an account of one of
my most successful trips, explaining
that for fast and comparatively easy
work it is best for one to bo accom
panied by a helper; but not being int;
dined to tho companionship of any of
the loafing natives, a brier root was
enough company.
Taking my skiff, Trowed up the
river about three miles; then, baiting
the hooks, I dropped the Jugs aorOS%
the channel about twenty'Sive feet
apart and dropped behind, waiting re

water,is smooth, a one pounder will
bob the floats preoeptibly, and
largerone will yank them, around
at a lively rate, but it re
quires a big fish to sink them for more
than half a minute, and another
?bing is that the game seldom es-'
oapea-once hooked, they are there for
good.'/
I had only had time to pipe np and
regain my wind af tey the arduous es.
croise of. rowing until the fun, com
menead. A jug bobbed, and ofter it
I went, pulling in about a three pound
catfish. By the time the hook was
rebaited and thrown bapk into the
water two jugs were Jumping around,
so the sport WAS gr o wi ag exciting and
somewhat laborious.
This .continued for about half an
hour, White I was floating down stream
securing more than a' dosen of fish of
from two to ' fifteen pounds, when
something surprising occurred.. One
cf tho jugs went down as h blaokba?l ;
takes a cork. Presently it tappcsjf?$'|
sonia distance away, sliding rapidly'
over tbs. water. Grabbing tbe:oati,$
putJ. out af Ur, ii^saasisg Mgg| 5'-;2
jumping to the front, only to see it
sink* quickly and sooot-effondertbo
surf see. Again and again. I went' for
it, with the samo results. Noticing
that' the disappearances were growing
aborter, which indicated that tho cat
ttas gstU?g ti?eu, as weil as myself, X
rested, while tho fish still kept going
with Jrts^forts.: nn?l-tiejno^'wa?
ceari- * stationary. > Then I quietly
paddled alongside and grabbed it with
both hands, wheo dovvu it wont with a
rush that caused the boat to take a
tub of water and pull rae uearly over
board.
Talk about your game fish-my ex
perience with the rod aod throw lines
that the cat pulls more cud dies hard
er than aoy other fish of equal size.
Wheo a boy I caught aa eight pound
er at noon and carried it up on the
bank, as I waa afraid to string it with
our bass and crappy, where we could
hear it flopping around for some time.
Nearly five hours later, when well
started home, my elder brother, find
'?g our uig una appui cully uc?u ??d
covered with dirt and leaves, walked
OUt (ju iuo l??c? ire? top tu WB5U it
o?r. As soon as ho gave it a swish in
the water it suddenly revived, pulling
him into tho stream, and, although he
was an expert swimmer and had it by
thc gills, it esespsu,-. to our ?rcat din
appointment.
To resume. Seeing that tho job
was rather difficult, for one person, I
used moro caution, BO I grabbed the
jug again aba gave the line a quiok
turn around the oarlock and sat down
until my gamo was completely exhaus
ted, then dexterously pulled him
aboard. Tho aoalo weight was seventy
pounds.
By this time the floats were badly
scattered, and being below my port I
began gathering them in, when my
only two-gallon float went down like a
flash, and although I stood and close
ly soaoned the water in all directions
for about fifteen minutes, it never ap
peared. The fish must have been a
whopper.
Formerly we had some very large
fish of this class. Nearly fifty years
ago a market man caught ono I saw at
Quincy, lil., that weighed 220 pounds.
It is very exceptional now to hook
ono over half this size.

Five Islands forBird?.
New Orleans, December 6.-Presi
dent Boosey cit some time ago directed
that five islands situated off the south
east coast of the State of Louisiana
be cet aside as a game preserve, under
the title of tbe Breton Reservation.
And now, supplementing that notion,
the Lake Borgne levee boord of Louis
iana bas rented to the Audubon So
ciety of this State, seventeen islands
near the coast in the vicinity o? Bre
ton Reservation with a total area of
3,00.0 aores. The purpose of the Au
dubon Seoiety, as well aa that of the
department of agriculture in whose
charge tho reservation, has been
placed, is to raise wild sea. birds. To
oarry out that plan the national com
mittee of Audubon Societies, of whioh
Willism Butcher, of Nov/ York, is
pr?sident, have hired .; men to con
stantly patrol the adjacent waters of
the Gulf and to watch the islands to
prevent trespassing.
