Speaking of his start in business, he says: "One of titp merchandising plans ! that I learned the first day in my little 1 store is that the unusual courtesies which u merchant gives Iiis customer? ^ are often the most appreciated. As a , corollary to that, the man or woman ' who actually spends the money is not d always the most profitable person tog ward whom a merchant can direct his good-will-building efforts. "One of my first customers was a >1 nursemaid who hesitated in front of the door: just what to do with the j baby carriage seemed a puzzle. I stepped over, held ojkmi the door and ; said: "Madam, baby carriages are ft very welcome in my store. Wheel It If right Inside." ? "The girl it turned out was nurse In the family of a successful young lawyer. Soon the lawyer's wife began to buy in my store; a very few days after that her husband stepped up to ie the men's furnishings department, intg troduced himself and l ought a nice le bill of goods. The whole family soon r_ came to be listed as perhaps my beet ln customers?all as a result of my courtly, esy to a maid. "Soon I put a sign In the window: "Baby carriages welcome." My baby s" carriage trade increased so much that ce there was not room In my store for ts the carriages at times. I hired a girl, o. dressed her up as a maid and had :h her take care of the carriages that a_ were standing outside on the sidewalk. The mothers and nnrses did not have to worry about them, you see. "Special courtesy to maids and chil10 dren?that is now one of my big lmn" portent policies. For I have been shown time and again by experience that when a store controls the trade ie of the children and the servant? the u- whole trade of the family is likely to v- eo there." y, sir 1 9 ie iv Waltzing Mouse Going. And what about waltzing mice? m There was a' time when they were 7 as common as goldfish, the Minneapf oil? Journal states. ^ Pet lovers would house dizzy fam\ llles of them. They would whir! I around. In pairs, on any small space, \ such as an Inverted tumbler, till they ? looked like spokes In a black and '( white wheel. \ But nowadays. If you decided to !I make a Jol|y present to your youngest nephew, you couldn't find a Japanese waltzing mouse In the country. It is true that their dervish dance Is out of date In thl? age of shimmy shakers. But that doesn't account for their extinction. The war. which took so many lives, reached even to the mouse world.

Pephaps they still live In Japan, where they are kept through Immigration laws. But as far as this country goes, these busy pets of children are C. now but a memory. Animals With Third Eyelid. Sir Johb Bland-Sutton, senior surgeon .of Middlesex Hospital Medical E school in London, is authority for the statement that all animals, except men and monkeys, possess a third eyelid. Many people have noticed how birds, jf] notably the turkey, operates this third lid by means of special muscles. The turkey is constantly winking without knowing that it does so. The third lid In this case is an opaque white cur 5> tain, but in certain birds and animals, ie and in some fishes, the third lid is a th transparent covering. The lizard of ''s trans-Caspian deserts uses its transparent lid as a protection against sand, ? while the American fish known as the star-gazer uses It effectively for watchse tng Its prey. It is interesting te note li- that the prey is secured through the jy operation or powenui eiev.-iricni uiuocles, and considerably over 50 small e swimming fish so caught have been found in the Interior of a star-gazer.

A good concrete-and-asphalt highway costs $36,000 a mile?just a bare road, not counting the cost of culverts, bridges, etc. Our railroads couldn't be duplicated today for $150,000 a mile. They are capitalized fbr only $71,000 a mile? much less than their actual value. Seventy-one thousand dollars today will buy one locomotive. English railways are capitalized at $2?4,000 a mile; the French at $155,000; German $132,000; even in Canada (still in pioneer development) they are capitalized at $67,000 a mile. The average for all foreign countries is $100,000. Low capitalization and high operating efficiency have enabled American Railroads to pay the highest wages while charging the' lowest rates. <Jhis advertisement is published by the Association of Slailway Executives 4 Those desiring information comeerning the raSroad situation may obtain literature by writing to The Association of Railway, Executives, 41 Broadway, New York t ' ' ." *- ?.*, * * ^ .
