How Benjamin Franklin's Bequest of
$5,000 to. Boston Has Increasid
in a Century.
I-low the dollar Invested works for

illusitrated by that first great Amerl

ho ho(luenthtd t l,000 to the CommlilonI
weallth of '1Maissachusetts and to the
city of Boston as a mark of his lippre
vintion for having appointed him1 as
agenit in England at the "lit aldsome"
salbry of ?2,000. And to make his he
(1tne'st really valuable, with his great
foresight Fralniliht provided In his will
that this X1,000 should be put out at 5
per ( icent interest for 100 years; that at
the end of that time 31-131 of the fumi
nelnttIlted shou l agi n be put out
at interest for anotherl hundlired year-s
and then the fund be divided one
fort h to Boston and three-fourths to
the state.
Let us see how well that ?1,000 of
leranklin's has worked. At the end of
the first hundred years it had grown to
$431,383.02. It was then divided in ac
cordance with the will; $320,300.48
was sot aside for "public work" and
$102,085.15 was started on its course
of -iarning interest for another hun
dred years. That was i 1891. On
.Jan. 1, 1918, this sum had grown to
$267,805.15 and at this rate of in
crease the fund should amotmt to it
least $0.000,000 when the second I
rod is completed, tnd may be consld
erably more.
ONE'S JOB MUST COME FIRST
Salary Should Be a Sccondary Object
for the Man Who to Anxious to
Advance.
I have never known ta young man to
ativance far when 1he thought nmuch
about hIs mlrity while at wori, or who
let that solary have aniyt hintug to do
with the intene4 he was putting Into
his joh. The job is the chanev, tle op
portunity, to show what you are nmde
of, to show what you have for sale
your aib1ilty, your personality.
If you have sotething unusual for
sale you may be sure you have what
every employer is always looking for.
If you nre alert, enthusiastile, original,
if you try to stUAmp everything that
goes through your hands with superior
ity, you muy be sure that you will
soon find a place at the front with
commensurate salary.
On the other hand, the man who
drags through Just enough work to get
by, who gets to lils job when he has
to and watchos the clock for time to
go home will not see his salary envel
opo fatten vory rapidly.
Quibbling over one's salary has
spotled mauny a career It is not what
you are paid for doing, but what you
do that you are not paid for that is
the key to the position above you.
This is almost invariably the case.
The service you renoler which you are
n'et obliged to give is 'the thing that
attracts your Imployer.-Orihon 'wett
