THE MAN WHO MAKES MISTAKEB.
(H.1rvlng Hancock in the Success.)
it is by no means a new conception
in commercial circles that the man
who makes mistakes, and who there—
fore finds himself an object of censure
from his employer, may really be a
very valuable employs. Yet it has prob-
ably occurred to but few people'who
tail for success that there is a corol-
lary to the effect that he who goes on
in his placid business way. year after
year, without being guilty of a single
error, is a positive menace to the well-
being of the one who engages his ser-
vices
No American business man under—
stood this latter proposition better than
the late Eben D. Jordan, of Boston,
founder of the great dry goods house
of Jordan. Marsh it Company. During
one of his daily strolls through the
store Mr. Jordan’s glance fell upon one
of his men who, for ten years. had
been at the head of a certain depart-
ment
”That reminds me, mused Mr. Jor-
dan. "that I made a note yesterday. to
look into the record of this Mr. Smith.
1'" do so today."
Returning to his private oiilce he
sent for one of his head men and in-
quired:
"What scrt of a fellow is Smith?"
“The very best sort. I consider him,"
replied the subordinate.
“I am very glad to hear that," quoth
Mr. Jordan. “He has had charge of
his department for ten years, I belieVe.
“Yes, air, and he has a unique- rec-
ord. He has never made a mistake."
”Eh? What's that? Discharge him
at once.”
“Sir?" stammered the surprised sub-
ordinate.
“No. On second thought," continued
Mr. Jordan, “you needn't discharge
him right away. I’ll give him another
chance. Send him in to me.”
Smith came. entering the private of-
iice with some trepidation.
"Sit down, Smith," said Mr. Jordan,
kindly; “1 bays been told that you
have had charge of your department
for ten years, and that you have never
committed a blunder."
“Such, I believe, has been my rec-
ord, sir," replied Smith. who now saw
his way to certain promotion.
"1 want you to mend your ways, Mr.
Smith," went on his employer.
“But I don‘t understand you, air,"
was the astounded man's reply.
"i dare say you don‘t. That's what i
wanted to see you about. Mr. Smith. 1
don't like men who never make mis~
takes. What 1 need here is a progres—
sive mam—on with plenty of push and
Now, a man who is full of
zeal for me and primed with ambition
for himself is sure to make a. mistake
now and then. The man who never
blunders is too cautious too slow to be
worth much here. Recently i had a
statement made out showing me the
percentage of increase or decrease in
the business of each department. 1 am
sorry to say that your department is
the only one that causes me any uneas-
iness. You never make any mistakes
Unless you can soon show some
changes in your methods, Mr. Smith,
you will not be a candidate for contin-
ued employment in this establish-
ment."
"Then you want me to make mis-
takes hereafter?” cried the dazed de-
partment manager
“There. again, you have failed to get
the idea The man who makes a lot 0!
senseless blunders is an expensive in:-
ury. The man who never does any-
thing foolish is equally useless. Pro-
vided you blunder once in a while,‘ yet
show me that your department is be—
coming increasingly proiitable to on!
shall consider you a valuable noon.
Think over what i have said to you,
Mr. Smith. it is equally applicable to
any business that calls for progressive
men and methods. If‘ at any time you
are in doubt, come to me for advice.
Remember that in my life of striving
and struggling, 1 have made, plenty of
blunders. and yet have made some
money. too. It is restless seal that
A‘-
Mr. Smith 1 will give you two months
in which to redeem yourself."
It is worth while recording that
Smith lost with reason, much or his
complacency about the absence of mis-
takes in his work, but he showed an
improved bale nee sheet and retained
his posithm.

WHY THIY ARI POOR.
Their ideas are lanes than their
purses.
They think the world owes them a
living.
They do not keep account of their
expenditures.
They are easy dupes of schemers and
promoters.
They reverse the maxium—“Duty be-
fore pleasure." 1
They have too many and too eapenr
sive amusements.
They do not think it worth while to
save nickels and dimes.
They have risked a competence in
trying to get rich quickly.
They allow friends to impose upon
their good nature and generosity.
They try to do what others expect of
them, not what they can afford. ,
The parents are economical, but the
children have extravagant ideas.
They do not today what they can
possibly put off until tomorrow.
They do not think it worth while to
put contracts or agreements in writ
ng.
They prefer to incur ’debt rather
than to do work which they consider
beneath them.
They do not dream that little mort:
gages on their homes can ever turn
them out of doors.
They have indorsed their friends'
notes or guaranteed payment Just for
accommodation.
They risk all their eggs in one bask-
et when they are not in a position to
watch or control it
They think it will be time enough to
begin to save for a rainy day when
the rainy dav comes.
They do not realize this one expen-
sive habit may introduce them to a
whole family of extravagant habits.
They do not know that giving a full
power-of- -attorney to an agent or law-
yer puts their property at his mercy
On a six hundred dollar income, they
try to compete in appearance with a
two- thousand dollar a-year neighbor. ——
Orison Swett Marden in Success.
TRAINING A BEAGLE.
With regard to the training of a
beagle, he has to be treated on quite a
different plan from the setter and
pointer. in their cases a great deal of
work of training is to conquer natural
propensities, whereas with the he is
you encourage him to go on and do all
he can in seeking and chasing when
found. Young dogs are usually put
down with an older one, and a very
few lessons suffice. it comes as nat-
ural to a beagle to run scent as for a
terrier to kill. rats, and if there is no
apparent inclination one lesson usually
provokes it. The less one interferes
with a beagle running a line the better
for the dog, so long as he is not potter
ing in one well tested place. but casting
all about when he has lost the trail:—
