New Ten Com
mandments,
% et
Graham Bell gives the following
2s ten business commandments in
*The Storekeeper:” :
1. Thou skalt not wait for sarae
thing to tu~n up, but thou shalt pull
ofi ihy coat and go to work that
thou mayest prosper in thy affairs
and make the word “failurc” spell
‘‘success.” :
2. Thou shalt not he content to
g 0 about thy business looking like a
loafer, for tlou shouldst know “that
thy personal appesrance is better
than a letter of recomendation.
3. Thou shalt not try to make
exgquees, nor shalt thou say to those
who «hi le thee **l didn’t think.”
4. Thou shalt not wait to be told
what thou shalt do, nor in what
manner thou shalt do It, for thus
may tay days be long in the_ job
which fortune hath given thee,
5. Thou shalt not fail to main
tain thin: own integritv, nor shalt
thou be gutlty of anything that will
lessen the good respect for thyself,
6. Thou shalt not covet the oth
er fellow’s job, aor is salary, nor
the position that he hath gained by
kis own hard labor, ‘
7. Thou shalt not fail ta live
within thy income, nor shait thou
contract any debis when thou canstf
not see thy way clear to pay them.
" 8. Thon chalt nnt be afraid to
blow thine -own hora, for he wao
faileth .to‘blgy his own hora, at the
‘stamling ready to blow it for him.
9. Thou shalt not hesitate to say
“No” when thou mearest ‘No,”
nor shalt thou fail to remember that
there are times when it 1s unsafe to
bind thyseif to a hasty judgement.
10. Thou shalt give every man
8 square deal. - Tais is the last.
gireat commandment, and there is
no other like unto it. Upon this
commandment hangs all the law and |
profits of the business world. |

A Distinctive Ti=
tle For Bachelors.
The demand for woman’s rights
continues to grow apace. [t has be
come nearly world wide. In Eng
land the suffragettes are demanding
the ballot, In Turkey the woman’s
righters demand the right to exhibit
their faces in public. In our coun
try they are demanding everything
that is in sight, and they are gan
ing these rights. From victory to
victory they go, no sooner having
gained one point than they begin on
anothes, and such advances have
they made that their leaders actual
ly have to lie awake at night trying
to study up other rights to claim,
~ Some of these leaders in Illinois
have now found another. Women
do uot all bear the same title, As
sooa as they reach the stage of
joung womanhood and politeness
Tequire that a handle be affixed te
their tame then this is a pplied,
Qvery young woman is **Miss.” This
ftitle they carty untii they are mar
ried. If a woman remaing unmar
’riegi she remains a ““Miss” all her
life, and s 0 it may, and does hup-;
pe‘ia that an octogenurian lady may
:bg‘;‘Miss Smith, while a sweet sixteen
‘may be Mrs, Bmith.
. I'his gives tne advantage or dis
advantage—as the case may be—
that knowing @ woman's correct (-
tle if'may always be known whether
he he single or marned. [t is an
vantage toa man to know this
7ke and ? > ‘ “fi
tage 10 a married woman who de
sires to get up merely a flirtation
with such a man, ‘
In tnis matter, man has the advan
tage. Heis “M:.” from the time
he casts off knee breeches and with
it the title of ““Master.”” His cor
rect tigle may be known, but 1t
doesn’t indicate whether he 1s single
or married The woman’s righters
now demand that this inequality be
tween the sexes be wiped ont, and
that some distinctive title be applied
to married nten as in the case of
married women, and they have in
duceu Senator Ettelson to introduce
a bill to this effect in the Ilhinois
Legislature.
No doubt such a law will be pass
ed; if not at once it will be later.
The woman’s nighters never let up
until they get what they coatend for,
Recognizing that sooner or later
this must come to pass, itis well to
be prepared to act when that time
shall come, In what way shall the
distinction be made?
- Following the precedent a man
wonld of course remain “Mr.”” as
long as he remained unmarried, In
this way “Mr.” could be equivalent ‘
to “Bachelor.” But what title
should be given the married wen?
This is a knotty problem which on-,‘
ly an advanced suffragette will ever,
be able to solve. Any other title
now in use, such as Col. or Prof,
iwould not answer since unmarried
‘men may bear them, The only way
iwould seem to be the coining of a
new title as in England, Mr, John
'Smith becomes Sir John Smith to
dengte that he is the son of a lorg
or something.
_ Perhaps ‘‘Henpecked” would be
an appropriate title, certainly when
that day shall come when woman's
;ighfs have advanced so far that they
'eqmrc the fact that a man is na;-
ried to be indicated by his name, —

stonite in the behalf and sympathy
