They strut and simper and pose as fine ladies never have and never will, It is commonly as- sumed that they are endeavoring to impersonate their elders, but the assumption is not entirely correct. Their strutting end their simpering is not interpretative. They are en- deavoring to translate into action the feeling of importance with which their childish minds have endowed fine ladies, They overdo it of course; nearly all posers exaggerate. So with social climbers who have but recently acquired money, They do not ape those they envy. They merely interpret as best they ean, the quality of superiority they imagine the elect to poseess. A social leader keeps three servants in knee breeches, possesses five evening gowns, and is frankly uninterested in climbers. Very well; the ¢limbr will clutter up the premises with seven- teen he-servants in knee pants, buy a wagon load of evening gowns, and snub everybody a foot high-- for thus and thus only, cin she feel as important as the social leader seems, "So. also, with the man who yearns to be an important citizen. Your great man is simple, unaffect- ed perhaps a little retiring, certainly devoid of airs. But these qualities are held in common with countless other men who are not great. There- fore, the man who wishes to appear great does not impersonate those who are great in fact. Rather he af- fects the degree of hauteur necessary to give him a feeling of importance, and by speech and manner endeavors to interpret his own conception of what a great man should be, A poor man who wished to impress his neighbors went shopping for afl' imitation diamond. If he had pur- chased a small one, the neighbors might have thought it genuine, But his eagerness to impress overcame his little store of judgment, and he bought a piece of glass of somewhat large proportion. It was not diffi- cult to tell the difference. ---- Bquare Pegs in Round Holes, I know & man who runs a gro- cery store and dreams of running a locomotive, He says he would rath- er be an engineer on a fast passenger run than governor of the state, In his youth he had some experienca of railroading, and his yearning for the RS ---- nese delegation.

I know another, a mail clerk, who is a mechanical genius. Mactinery thrills him. He is happy only when he has a wrench in his hand, and yet he continues to- sort letters because | he lacks the courage to climb out of | the unhappy rut into which chance has thrust him, I cannot believe that a man is jus- tifled in devoting his life to a trade or profession that offers him no chance of happiness In his work, ev- en though the money reward is grea- ter than he could hope to win in the calling that offers him contentment. For money and the things that are bought with money have worth only in proportion to the happiness they afford, and no one will contend that an unhappy millionaire is- more to be envied than a contented hod car- rier, It 'may be argued that a man's duty to his family requires him to choose the way that promises the most money, even though it promises discontent as weN. But my obser- vation has been that the woman who lives. in a great house and has many servants is no happier than the wo- man who lives in a flve-room bun- galow and does her own house work, and that the sons and daughters of the rich do not develop into better or happler citizens than the children of the poor. If life cannot afford happiness, it can afford nothing else worth while. And if the task by which one earns his bread affords only grief and bale- ful discontent, there is no other source from which he may hope to draw contentment. Useful work is noble if it is free; it {s but a hate- ful form of slavery if it affords no other reward than the money gain- ed. Uncle Gus The smoke and cobwebs of many years had conspired to darken the ceiling of the grocery store and cast a haze of gloom upon the whole in- terior, and now a painter balanced precariously atop a step-ladder, after the manter of his kind, and swung a desultory brush freighted with white lead. Uncle Gus, sitting beside me on a bench in front of the door, caught my amused smile and Interpreted it correctly, "He's workin' by the day," said he "An' he's takin' it easy so's not to git his brush hot an' set the ceilin' afire.

When I was a young feller I worked out a right smart, and I was purty good back-leg "carpenter. Done all sorts o' odd jobs, blacksmithin' an' things like 'that.
