act we do has a subt Influence on every other act Every time anyone does work of any kind In a ahiftless slovenly way he weakens his ability to do first class work in any other direction For Instance suppose your business Is stenography Being a woman you usually make up the beds for mother of a Sunday morning You like to make beds and you are tncltned to make them in a very slovenly fashion despite the knowledge that by so doing you forfeit a handsome husband Now If you yield to this Inclination you not only spoil the appearance of the room but you also affect your ability to write a neat lettdr in the office on Monday And conversely If you Insist on making those beds just as well as you know how you also strengthen yourself as a neat and accurate stenographer Or again say that your profesison is homemalc-Ing and you are elected treasurer of the local Woman's 'Club Keeping books is stiff up-hill work for yoH but If you persist In doing It in an orderly and systematic fashion you will thereby strengthen the habits of order and system which yon try to maintain In your own profession Whereas if you allow yourself to be carele about this task you impair your ability as a housekeeper Of course the influence which one single act exerts is not perceptible But we seldom perform single acts We let ourselves be slovenly the making of the beds or the keeping of the books

efficiency of whom we have such a ctop the last few years "stand him in good stead in becoming efficient in other work These habits of work are vastly more important than the work itself for It is our experience that a man who become efficient in one thing readily learns to become efficient at other "The habits of work are really more important than the work it-That means bud habits as well as good ones If you want to he In one direction you must try not be slovenly in any even the work Itself does not seem to you Important 7 Ox BASEBALL AS A PROFESSION The baseball field is becoming the mecca

considers his salary inadequate he might buy up a minor league and add a couple of hundred thousand to his Income by merely selling few of the youngsters to the majors at top notch prices He would not

the evening train for town he bent and gave her an unexpected kiss are a good girl Gena Good-by little Cinderella" cried Gena cheerily and when the motor had disappeared down the long drive she went
