Deaf people choorful and comfortable, because
such people can talk with their friend without tho
friends having to shout back at them. Thoy can hear
without straining. It is tho straining that puts such
a quoor, anxious look on tho face of a deaf porson.
Wilson's Ear Drums mako all tho sound strike
hard on tho contor of tho human oar drum, lustead
of preadlng It weakly nil ovor tho surfzeo. It
thus makes tho contor of tho human ear drum
vibrate ton times as much as If tho emo sound struck
tho wholo drum head. It is this vibration of tho oar
drum that carries sound, to tho hearing Nerves.
When we mako tho drum vibrato ten times as much
we make the sound ton times as loud and ten times
ad easy to understand.
This Is why pooplo who had not in years heard a
clock strike can now hoar that samp clock tick any

men who are earning more than they
get.
The business man hnows that to keep
good men workine for him he must
pay them according to what they do.
not what they would do if they got
more money.
In all kinds of business where men
are employed there Is a large class of
clerks and other wage earners who
work only for 'pay day.1 f
They are continually haunted by the
fear that they will do more than their
is paid tho same, or
wear out their brnlna

neighbor, who

They will always continue to work
or pay day, and their envelopes at th
end of each weok will always contain
he same amount of monnvnr in.-.
. or when a man lacks interest in what
e is uoing no soon begins to fall off
In his earning power.
Meanwhile the men who keep inter
red, who are not afraid of doing
Tiore work than they are paid for, and
vyho are not so much worried about
wearing out their,, brains as they are
about using them too little, are the
rnen whose wages are advanced.
Employers learn that such men
Readily earn more than they are paid,
md while their salaries may never
'eep pace with their value them
would be no profit in employing them
If such was tho casethey at least
ire progressing, and noon will leave
their pessimistic young friends far be
hind. Another thing which the man who
oes out after success soon learns is
Uiat when he does another man's work
he must do it better than his prede
'essor did.
If one bookkeeper or cleric takes the
, place of another, lie will attract no at
tention as long as he does- the work
exactly as it was done before.
If ho does not do it as well, he will
not be likely to. last very long in his
new position. But if he does it bet
ter, he will be noticed and will stand
an. excellent chance of promotion.
In any business ruts are soon'formed
and the man who takes the place of
another finds it easier lo get. into the
same rut, and plod steadily along. there,
satisfied if he brines down unon hlm-
self, no criticism. -
He is usually sorrowful because he
is not. paid as much as the other man.
He does the same work, he says, and
he ought ,to get the same pay.
But the man who is doing the paying
is not looking for that kind of substi
tutes. He is in a rut himself, and the fact
that everything is going on as formerly
makes no particular impression on
him.
But if the now man once gets out of
the rut. and does things that the man
whose place he took could or did not
do. then he begins to be noticed and
marked out for advancement.
All young men are naturally anxious
to earn more money to get, some
how or oth.r, that valuable and use
ful thing which is known as success.
Unhappily the systems of employ
ment in use by the great corporations
limit the opportunities of vast num
bers of their employes, and make it
necessary for many of them to work
for far less than their services are
worth; but the men who do advance
are not those who are the most careful
to do only that for which they are
paid.
And big corporations, as well as in
dividual emplbyers, are alive to the
value pf men who can learn to be
worth more, and that is the kind of
men who get the big salaries in the
end or acquire the information and ex
perience which enable them some day
to get into business for themselves and
become emplovers on their own ac
count. Chicago American.

But as Lincoln said, it "waa of no

The Convolutions of Lincoln' Brain
The Tribune says it does not pre
tend to understand "the convolutions
of the anti-imperialist brain," as if
there were some abnormality in an
American who believes that our na
tion was "conceived in liberty and
dedicated to the proposition that all
men are created equal.".
