fYED FEW "SAFETY SHOTS'"| Who Havo Won 8uccess iu Lift's Qamo Satisfied With Notte ing but Victory. P| Walter Hagen, the golfer, snys: ^"Never play for a safety, but always If try for the cup." j Kings In other trades as well as in 9??" have found that it pays to "toil for the cup," remarks "Girard" In the f Philidelphta Press. X Safety shots are often careless shots Pin business as in play. L Rockefeller played six hole out In Pthe oil world and he made a par and ^tben some. P Morgan hammered the hull straight ?for the flag and It flew above every bunker and sand pit in the financial ^ world. P Col.

So in business as on the links the h adage should be: "Hold your head atlll and play for the cup." I . PICK EMPLOYEES WITH CARE j V h Modern Business Men No Longer Rely I oh the "Hit-or-Miss" Method of ^ Selection. There was a time when picking emw ployees was a hit-and-miss Job, a trlal^ and-ormr matter which few employers w believed could be corrected. This Is ^ the day of doing things right and the : 9 mrwlnrn pmnlnvor now spli?PtInLr Ilia ' ^ associates, from the office hoy to the " man highest up, with as much care as ^ he would launch on an entirely new " business venture. William Marvin ^ Jackson, director of the Personnel Pe" velopment service, writes: I "If employees are carefully selected, 1 " with an eye to their real adaptability k and fitness for the work to he done, it " goes without question that they are k much more likely to take an interest in their work, and hence, the business k itself. If they are interested, they will " get along well with their fellows and k co-operate with their superiors. All of " which means that they will grow, and k there is no satisfaction for the em" ployee greater than that which accomk panies the-knowledge that he is get' ting somewhere. Patting him on the k back may make him feel good, and paying him a good salary may make k him work harder. Hut" giving him a new Joh and bigger Job will alone k make hitn supremely happy, will alone make him work with complete aban^ don, with thorough-going enthusiasm.** -?Forbes Magazine. > No Doubt Who Was Boot. } Sometimes it is easy to see, even before a couple is married.

Tribune. Australian Rabbits Selling Fast. Rabbits have been doing great dam! age In the grazing districts of Australia, and strenuous efforts to eradicate them has resulted In the killing of a vast number of these animals. Some 100,000 bodies are nwv In cold storage awaiting shipment to England. The embargo on the export of rabbit skins was removed In T>e? cenrber last, and the boom In rabbltskln prices has produced remarkable competition In slaughtering the pest. The ruling average price paid to trappers for skins Is now S1.82 nor nonnd and the demand for skins by the United States and European markets la so great that it cannot be satisfied, and it ia thought that prices will go atlll higher.

HONEYMOONS IN ODD PLACES Persons of Adventurous Disposition Hive Spent Them Amid Arctic and Savage Dangers. Mr. Elkins, the wealthy young American who recently took his bride for a honeymoon "as near the Nortli pole as he can comfortably get," hi by no means the first bridegroom who has spent his "month of honey" lu this chilly environment, says London Answers. A few years ago Mr. Max Flelschmnnn. n Chicago millionaire, at his bride's request, took her straight from the nltnr to the Arctic wastes, where they spent, on their own evidence, "delightful" months, hunting seals, reindeer and polar bears, two of which fell to the bride's own gun. Mrs. Flelschnmnn'a honeymoon wardrobe, we are told, consisted of an assortment of sheepskin dresses, lined with leather. Less chilly, but' no less adventxirous. was the honeymoon journey of Major Powell-Cottoo, who took his bride on a long and hazardous Journey through Africa, spending many months In the heart of the Ituri forest, hunting the okapl and making friends of the savage pigmies, who had never before even seen a wnne woman. But the most daring and adventurous of all recorded honeymoons was that of Captain Andrews, an American sailor, and his bride, who started to cross the Atlantic in a "cockleshell." 12 feet long, and were never seen again. INDIAN IDEA CF RECKONING Time Designated fn Simple Fashion? Journeys and Distances Told Off by "Sleeps." The American Indians of early days reckoned tine by what they called "sleeps" and "moons." The Indian's "sleep" re/erred to a sun-to-stin day of 24 hours and his "moon" to what the whita man roughly and improperly calls r month. The Indians indicated the domu hour by pointing vertically upward. To Indicate the middle of the firs.- half of the daylight period?9 o'eVvk?hp pointed upward midway between the horizon and the zenith anil to indicate mid-afternoon ? 3 o'clock?he pointed toward the opposite quarter. He spoke of the eastern horizon as "sunrise" and of the western horizon as "sunset." Journeys and distances between different points were measured in "sleeps." Thus, when he undertook to tell how far he hud traveled or to tell how far one point was from another, the old-time Indian would say a certain number of "sleeps." Ordinarily, a "sleep" In this sense corresponded to something like 35 miles?the distance n man could cover in a day, traveling at an ordinary pace on foot. However, It was not unusual for men carrying important messages to make twice 35 miles or more in a single 24hour period. New York Landmarks Going. The "downtown" section of New Tork Is losing one of Its landmarks by the demolition of the Eastern hotel to make room for an ofliee building. For nearly a hundred years it has boon tlie favorite hostelry of American seafaring folk. "Dynamjte Johnny" O'Riien, well-known for his praetlee of shipping arms to the Latin-American countries, concocted many of his filibustering schemes in this hotel, which he ninde Ids headquarters. One of the features of this htilldI Ing was its beams of solid mahogany. In 1822, when it was constructed, cargoes of supplies were frequently shipped from New York to South [ American ports, and when a return | cargo could not be secured mahogany was brought hack, serving the purpose of both cargo and ballast. These cargoes were sold cheaply, and were often used In the construction of New York buildings of that period. WANTED ? Cross Ties at Once. See L.
