The man at the desk looked at him coldly and tpoke one word: "Well?" The depositor repeated his name, thinking that the officer had not understood him the first time. "Yes," answered Mr. Chiller (which will serve as his name inasmuch as it is descriptive), speaking in that deadly impersonal tone so many bankers use when speaking to men they do not know intimately, "What ca we do for you?" "Not one blessed thing, sir," answered the young man. turning on his heel and walking out. His account was immediately transferred to another bank.

I have never quite been able to understand the man who doesn't know how to be, or doesn't care to be, a human being. Men there are you have met some of them, I'm sure who think that to be amicable, decent, big-hearted, open, approachable, is a sign of weakness. These men think that, so long as they put on an austere front, the world will figure out that something very important is behind that front. But I don't figure that way. I've met too many false fronts.

Why, bless you, it's only the little man who has to be self-important. Your really worth-while business executive always has the time and the inclination to be considerate, kindly, receptive. Dreier, whom I am proud to class among my friends, when asked, once upon a time, what, in a sentence, was his work in life, answered: "To increase the neighborliness in the world is my job." It's a man-size job. Let us do our little part in putting it over. Let's give pettiness of mind and heart absent treatment.

Let's be BIG. I believe fully that, as Tom Dreier says, "To be radiant, The suite consists of armchair, rocker, settee and footrest, upholstered with genuine Spanish Imperial leather.

In one of the big hotels Sn this place I have heard your Sunday eermonettes as the tpoic of most favorable comment more than once. I want your advice you who seem to take so broad-minded a view of everything. I am a young woman in business that is, I am employed in a big office.

Recently the tongue of the slanderer has been busy, and I find, to my sorrow, that people are beginning to listen to deliberate falsehoods that one of the other young women in the office has been circulating about my conduct. None of the things she has said of me are true, yet I fear people will believe them. I have a mother to support, and t-annot afford to lose my position. Is there any way in which I can stop or counteract the slander about me? It has caused me many a tear. What would you do in tbe i-ircurostanees?

The failures of life sit around and complain, The gods haven't treated them white; They've lost their umbrellas whenever there's rain, And they haven't their lanterns at night. Men tire of failures who fill with their Bshs The air of their own neighborhoods; There's a man who is greeted with love-lighted eyes he's The man who delivers the goods. One fellow is lazy and watches the clock And waits for the whistle to blow; And one has a hammer with which he will knock, And one tells a story of woe.

And one if requested to travel a mile Will nleasure the perches and roods; But one does his stunt with a whistle and smile he's The man who delivers the goods. One man is afraid that he'll labor too hard, The world isn't yearning for such: And one man is ever alert on his guard Lest he put in a mmute too much. One has a grouch on, a temper that's bad, And one is a creature of moods; So it's me for the joyous and rollicking lad for The man who delivers the goods. Ewohange. About To Miss Something.
