TIMES ENTERPRISE, THO MA8VILLE, OA„ JULY 29,19M. An Ideal Fish By Robert W. ChiCbsn j HERE are. In some cold, clear sffearns of tbe North] certain flail known locally ns -Mohawk chubs." Those fish nre tho ideal fish in shape and color—graceful, slim, elegant cron tares, pure silver except ou the dorsal ridge, which Is the tint ot oxydlaed silver. They nre tender-mouthed, and remind me somewhat of the grayling, although they hnve not the grant dorsal flu nor the fragile mouth of that llsh. They often in habit trout waters, and I have an Idea that trout feed on tha smaller ones, although I have no absolute proof that this Is true. I know, however, that pickerel, masknlouge and black bass strike at them eagerly. \ These fish rise to a fly and are often quite as gatny as grayling. Often and often I have struck them In trout waters, and have found them Interesting lighters when tackle Is light and water cold and swift. Animals and birds appear to be very fond of them, or at least nre often seen eating them, perhaps because they may be easier to catch than trout. Where Mohawk chubs are herons and kingfishers congregate. The only time I ever saw an osprey in that region was once when whipping that stream. The osprey dashed down within a rod of mo and seized a Mohawk chub that must halve weighed a pound at least, bearing him up out of the pool and away acres* .acres of swamp toward the distant forest.—Harper's Weekly.

In the change of conditions; but they have | I I lost something in that In many homes there Is less of healthy jj ■ exercise, less of that kind of work that developed the body 1 V 9 and also developed simple and healthy taste*. There Is ns a result of this poorer physical development, less feeling of re sponsibility In the home ou the part of the young Indies and not so great n sense of duty. When every member of tho .family had everyday, specific duties—work 10 do that had to be done, work thnt exercised the body os well ns the moral sense In discharging a duty- such life, dreary and harsh aa It sometimes was and often barren of most of ■those things thnt we regard ns common comforts, had at least the great advan tage of providing work that furnished physical exercise, and that was also done under the sense of obligation. There Is a moral and physical healthful* ness in such a life that goes to the making of strong and simple characters, and thnt puts purity of blood and vigor of constitution Into dcacendants. The number of young women who soon after marriage break down from the unexpected strain of new duties is very large. Tho mother of a young woman who had become a nervous Invalid within two years after marriage said to me there was no apparent cause for her daughter’s Illness, as she had been shielded front everything from childhood. Why, Indeed, should anyone be shielded? Wns it ever the case anywhere thnt n person who had been shielded grew to be a forceful character or proved a success in presence of the CT/>e Funny \JTide of Life, HIS HOP& The politician face* fat* With feelirtgs very strong.

The Newspaper and the State By Samuel Bowles, Journalist IIE difficulties of producing a worthy and excellent newspaper nre great. It cannot he efficient and Independent unless it T a Is at least self-sustaining; or, to put it in another wny, unless I it exhibits qualities which will coimnnnd the support of the ■ public. Of course, the press may he endowed. In some wny, I but the endowment is apt to be encumbered with an obliga tion to serve tome other interest than that of the public. It seems to me Impossible for a journal that Is entirely and short-sightedly, commercial in its spirit to be of value ns a ‘public mentor. Such a Journal Is apt to he more harmful than helpful In Its in fine nee. The duty that rests upon every member of society to so conduct his business, to so perform his part, that good, not evil, shall flow from bis action, appeals with peculiar force to the Journalist. The true journalist is broad minded and far-sighted enough to see thnt the best service he can possibly render tho public is the best Investment he can make for himself. The life of the worker of the press who Is thoroughly devoted to his calling Is strenuous and laborious. It is attended with an almost incessant strain upon the patience and the nerves. The work is never ended; the responsibility and the anxiety never cense; emergencies nre irlwnys imminent, and they de mand the full expenditure of brain and muscle. TItost who enter upon It .should do so with a keen sense of Its responsibilities as If entering any one of the so-called learned professions. The newspaper which goes Into the homes and haunts of the people should be clean, harmonious, attractive, nr- ti»tlc, beautiful. To please and Improve the taste <*f his reader should be the constant niin of the maker. Tho public welfare r.hould be his solo guide In determining the contents of his sheet. That affords abundant field for the exercise of skill, ability and energy, and the employment of sensation of n worthy sort In making his paper popular and strong and profitable. The new conditions and problems created by the country’s rapid growth constitute n new and Insistent call upon the presu to rise to its opportunities, to perform Its obvious duty. These relate not alone to the affairs of the Nation and State, but to the Immediate environment of every newspaper In the land. The time is ripe for making our home community life In every city, town and village cleaner, fairer, richer, happier, more Just and more beautiful. This ir. to come through a high development of the civ*/? spirit, and In that develop ment tho press should be the most potent factor. IN THESE DAY«.

The Art of Salesmanship By L. D. Vogel OOD salesmanship Is so essential to all lines of business, and so G worthy of Intelligent study and execution, that the calling, to my inlnd, is lifted to the dignity of a profession. First, let me say that the definitions of salesmanship which I shall offer are not my own, but quotations from what I have read; and, coming as they do from salesmen of experienco who have been successful, they nre entitled to respectful consideration. “Salesmanship is the quality In a man—partly inherent, partly acquired—whereby he is able to successfully introduce, interest In and sell a prospective customer any nrtic!e or commodity.” I will quote a few others, which impress me as being particularly good, and which I singled out of many and copied: “The ability to sell goods, or other property, in a straightforward manner, with satisfaction to all concerned and with the least expenditure of time and money, but having always chiefly in view the benefit to be derived by the person for whom the property is sold.” Another: “Salesmanship is that quality iu a salesman which enables him. In the shortest space of time, to place in the possession of his customer the greatest amount of satisfactory merchandise, and in the coffers of his employ ers the greatest amount of profits; while at the same time preserving tho last ing good will and respect of his customci.” Bear in mind, please, that a salesman is not in the salesmanship class, ac cording to this authority, unless he can both make a profit for bis employer and preserve the lasting respect and go<ul will of the customers. Another definition that, it seems to me, contains many good points, is as follows: ".Salesmanship Is the science ot putting into each duy’s work hontsty in speech, loyalty to employer, the hustle of modern civilization, of watching your weak points, of strengthening them, of not only keeping your customers but gaining new* ones, of being at all times a gentleman.” I will tax your patience with one more quotation, and this one, to my mind, la as trne and good as it is terse: “Salesmanship is ability to make sales; its attributes arc’health, honesty, courtesy, tact, resource, reserve power, facility of expression, a firm and unspeakable confidence in one’s self, a thorough knowledge of and confidence in the goods one is selling.” Certainly, none of us will deny that a good salesman must know bis goods so well and have such confidence in th%n that he can convince the merchant that he needs the goods; then ho must enthuse hJm in such a way that, after he does purchase them, he jflll push their- — HER BUSY DA^. “Where’s the child wonder?” asked the stago manager. “It’s nearly time for her act, and I haven’t seeA any thing of her.” “She’ll probably be a little late to day,” replied the serio-comic lady. “I believe her daughter was to be mutried nt high noon, and I s’pose she went to the train to see them off.’—Chicago Record-Herald. A Wife’s Allowance. Is It (Desirable that wives • cnould enjoy a fixed monetary allowance for their own disposal for dress and such petaonAl expenses da are continually arising? The question is put forward in the pages of a leading authority oil tnattera of feminine interest, and is answered from various points of view. Thus, a business woman urges that a inan shoul not give him wife unlimit ed credit at shops and then be Indig nant if her expenditure is large. On the other hand, says this lady, an allowance spurs on a woman to live within her means, ahd teaches her the value of money. A lawyer lays down the maxim that a mpn owes it to the girl he marries to keep her free from financial worries. There are those husbands who admit that they ere only glad to hand over the larger pait, if not the whole, indeed* of th'c-ir Income to careful and m-ati- aging wives, leaving them to arrangd the scale of household outlay, and taking what they regard as necessary for their own and the children’s dress.—London Telegraph. City Residents Near-8ighted. “Tho race ib growing near-sighted, owing to city life and the conditions of our civilization,” said Frederick P. Simmons, examining eye specialist, while addressing the members of tho New England Association of Optic ians. “Our visual range is Confined to bear objects for the greater part of tho day*’’ said ho, “and this keops the eyes turned in. An object twenty feet away will make tho eyeballs parallel; “Anything leBE wll turn them in, and people who spend hours In -offices and crowded flats necessarily have a short range of’ vision, which over works and weakens the interior mus cles close to the nasal cavity. “Tho exterior muscles not being so strained, are strong, and hence cause the eyes to turn out.
