Too l.ovr nnd Too nigh, "Do employers hire men and then pay thorn what they think them* worth or do thoy fix salaries and then get such men as they can to lit them?" asked a young man who had been going through tho experience of changing his work. "I won't try to answer my question, but I will tell you a story. I called upon a manager to talk with him about a place of responsibility which I knew he had to offer. lie seemed taken with me nnd I think bad his- mind made up to employ me. Finally bo asked me liow much salary I would expect. " 'I should say about $150 a month,' I answered. "Immediately his face fell. 'I'm sorry,' he snhl, 'but I expert to pay $2,500 a year, and I want a $2,500 man. Good morning.' "From there I went to Inquire about another place. Again I seemed to suit, and we got to the question of wages. .1 knew the firm was not in the habit of spending much money. If I was to get the position I must bid low, and bo I suggested $125 a month. " 'I'm sorry,' was the reply, 'but we can't pay more than $100. I know you're worth more and the work Is worth more, but we haven't got the money to spend, that's all. Good morning.' "?New York I'ost. ji. 1 - - ... . ..
