Kvery reader of "Rlpptf" ought to know that some of the early chap ters are autobiographical, and deal with tve years When Mr. Wells serv ed behind a draper's couuter. He has just told the shop assistants, in confidence, in London, that "noth but Incompetence" got him out of the business, and he might hare been a shop assistant today had he been able to keep bright and work for long spells. But unlike many other successful men, he does not despise the ladder on which he has risen, and he gives some good ad vice to those still behind the counter to "learn everything you can of the story of the stuff you handle before it got into the shop." Mr. Wells evidently believes in George Her bert's lines: A servant with this clause' Makes drudgery divine, Who sweeps a room, as for Thy laws Makes that and th' action flne. —Christian Science Monitor.

In the center of Netf York City. It was the first team to play the game with nine on a side, and 21 runs made the game The game was not a popular one One year later, a baseball conven tion was held with nine teams repre sented.
