Be Efficient and Do Thing* That Other
People Do Not Do.
A (Him lias a weary lime swatting to
rise in the world by force of sympathy,
by getting somebody else to puli him
a loner. You see such people staudlng
around expecting compa.ssiou and a
lift from some who have succeeded.
But this is not the way success is at-
tained That conies by working for it,
by being' worthy of it, by doing one’s
best, if i* comes at all. The world is
fttH of failures because a man bangs
liai U and depends upon others. ’
Efficiency is the greatest word in the
language. There Is no real progress
without it. And what does efficiency
consist of? Of sobriety, honesty, dili-
gence, patience, happiness, unselfish-
ness. good habits auU putting in full
time.
Of course a man ran get rich by not
caring for these. Me can gamble, steal,
defraud, pad pi trolls nnd expense
bills, borrow money and never pay.
Btit such riches don’t last. They drop
a man pretty hard finally.
The only way is to start out in tho
world and do one's best without wait-
ing to see what others do. As Stein-
metz. the master electrician, said, "To
earn .5100,(XK) a year do things other
people don’t do.’’—Ohio State Journa1

When Wig* Went.
Civilization has to thank the French
revolution mid tile subsequent
wars
for masculine emancipation from the
/Wig. it was partly the scarcity of
Cour and the war tax on hair 'powder11
that banished the powdered wig. but
partly also the leveling tpfiueuce of
Jacobinism. "I do not know the pres-
ent generation by sight." wrote Wal-
pole in 1791. complaining that tile
young won "in their dirty shirts and
shaggy hair have. leveled noldlity as
uuirh as the nobility in France have."

Joe Bennett, manager of the
Union telephone system of this city,

ing.—Plano Star-Courier. •‘Joe’

when he left this city and it is to
bp regretted that he was "critical'

Volcanoes and Disease. ,
Many strange and exaggerated ac-
counts have been given of terrible dis-
eases in Human beings, lower animals
and plants as a result of volcanic ac-
tivity. In a prize essay by Dr. 11. .1.
Johnston l.avis it is shown that there
Is no direct connection with disease,
hut that volcanic outbursts may Indi-
rectly cause or increase epidemic dis-
ease In several ways. The poisouotts
fumes may have irritating and de-
pressing effects on the eyes and throat.
The disturbance of water courses uuty
bring about the infection of wells and
surface supplies with sewage, and in-
terference with veutilatiou of houses
may result from the accumulation of
ejected materials. The moral depres-
sion from fear, with hunger from the
cutting off of food supplies, may have
the effect by lessening the resistance
of tiie organization to infection.-Ex-
change.
