THE POWER TO PLEASE.
A Potent Factor For Sucre** In Any
Career Ton Huy Adopt.
The power to please is a tremendous
asset What can he more valuable
than a personality which always at
never repels? It is not only
v.i!table in business, but also in every
ih‘i-1 of life. It ii: ikes statesmen and
p -iiiicia:as; it brings clients to the law
,y • and patki vs to the physician; it is
w \h evert A: t." to the clergyman. No
it -or what career you enter, you can
-21 : overestimate the importance of cul
t. ring that .harm of manner, those
p Tonal qualifies, which attract people
to you. They will take the place of
capital or inllueuce; they are often a
sib stitute for a large amount of hard
work.
{Some men attract business, custom
ers. clients, patients, as naturally as
magnets attract particles of steel. Ev
erything seems to point their way, for
the same reason that the steel particles
point toward the magnet—because they
are attracted.
Such men are business magnets.
Business moves toward them even
when they do not apparently make half
so much effort to get it as the less suc
cessful. Their friends call them “lucky
dogs.” But if we analyze these men
closely we find that they have attrac
tive qualities. There is usually some
charm of personality about them that
wins all hearts.—Success.
THE MAGICIAN’S THUMB.
It Is His Worst Enemy In Slelgbt of
Hand Tricks.
In every sort of magic the magician’s
thumb is his worst enemy, says Nina
Carter Marbourg in Leslie’s Weekly.
If he could strike off that thumb and
still ha' e its assistance when neces
sary he would be a happy man. In
closing the hand the thumb usually
bends toward the palm in advance of
the fingers. In this way it many times
is much in the way, and practice is
necessary to get a magician’s thumb in
perfect training. But when he has
practiced in the school of magic for
some time the thumb becomes so flexi
ble that it will bend nearly to the back
of the hand.
Cards are invariably the beginning
of a magician’s education. In handling
cards the is especially In the
way, and this is the reason why this
trickery with the pasteboards is se
lected for the beginner. To change one
card for another in front of one’s very
eyes and still to have made no percep
tible movement of the hand is a trick
that beginners learn to perform before
they have been in the school for any
great length of time. This, as may be
imagined, is a difficult piece of work to
become proficient in, and here is just
the place where determination plays a
great part in success.
BISMARCK CONSENTED.
•
He Was the Final Arbiter of an Eng
lish Love Match.
When the third son of the Duke of
j.rgyle bestowed his affections upon
an untitled woman he felt bound to
ask the old gentleman’s consent. The
duke answered that personally he had
no objections to the match, but iu view
of the fact that hi3 eldest son had es
poused a daughter of the queen he
thought it right to Inquire her majes
ty’s pleasure on the subject before ex
pressing his formal approval.
Her majesty, thus appealed to, ob
served that since the death of the
prince consort she had been in the
habit of consulting the Duke of Saxe-
Coburg on all family affairs.
The matter was therefore referred to
Duke Ernest, who replied that since
the unification of Germany he had
made it a rule to ask the emperor’s
opinion on all important questions.
The case now came before the kaiser,
who decided that, as a constitutional
sovereign, he was bound to ascertain
the views of his prime minister.
Happily for the now anxious pair of
lovers the “Iron Chancellor,” who was
then in office, had no wish to consult
anybody and decided that the marriage
might take place, and it did.
A Prudent Editor.
In a record of Dr. Momerie’s life and
work we find this story, with which he
once concluded a sermon:
When Dr. William Smith was bring
ing out hio Biblical dictionary, being a
prudent editor, and understanding the
taste of the public extremely well, he
determined that the articles should con
tain as much science as was compati
ble with orthodoxy and no more. The
one on “The Deluge” was to be writ
ten by a man whom die doctor con
sidered safe, but when it was finished
It turned out to be quite heterodox.
There was no time’to procure another,
as that part of the dictionary had to
appear at once, so when people looked
for “Deluge” they discovered only
“See Flood.” A fresh writer was then
found, but when his article was re
amed it was worse than the first. It
was not allowed to appear; Dr. Smith
dimply wrote: “Flood, see Noah.” How
je managed with this article I don’t
mow.
MtY OUTDO CARNEGIE
Employee of Rockefeller Tells 01
More Gifts to Come.
OIL KOTO EAGER TO GIVE FREELY
Oa of Hl* Estate Managera Glvoa
His Employer'* View of tho “Talat*
od Money” Controversy—Telia of In
cidents of His Kindness to tho Pool
nnd His Great Love For Children.
The following Is John D. Rockefel
ler's side of the “tainted money” con
troversy, as given by one of the man
agers of his estate at Pocantico Hills,
in New York state, a man who has
been in Mr. Rockefeller’s employ for
ten years and has shared his confidence
during all of that time, says the New
York American.
Mr. Rockefeller is greatly distressed
over the criticism that was directed
against him by ministers of the gospel
following his recent gift of a large sum
of money to the board of missions. He
is determined, however, not to be dis
couraged from making further gifts to
religious, charitable and educational
institutions, and purposes transcending
in liberality and generosity all dona
tions heretofore made by philanthro
pists. He recently gave away $11,000,-
000. He will soon give away even lar
ger sums.
“Why does Mr. Rockefeller not an
swer his critics?” was asked. With en
thusiasm the Rockefeller manager who
stipulated but one thing—that his name
be not used—replied:
“Mr. Rockefeller has refused to make
reply to those who have criticized him
because whenever he has undertaken
to speak to the public his statements,
if not distorted iu the first instance,
have been misconstrued and misinter
preted.
“Only recently, when Mr. Rockefeller
and I were driving through the estate
together, he said to me:
“ ‘Why do people abuse me so? Can
it be possible that I am regarded as an
enemy of civilization? I am willing,
yes, anxious, to give freely of what I
possess, but my money must go where
it is intended to go and not line the
pockets of others.’
“Mr. Rockefeller is deeply interested
In road building. In fact it is one of
his hobbies. There are thirty miles of
macadam roads on the estate, and they
cost Mr. Rockefeller between $3,000
and SIO,OOO a mile, according to the
amount of filling in and blasting that
had to be done. The work is still pro
gressing and when completed there
will be fifty miles of the best roads in
all. Between nine and ten miles of
these roads have been turned over for
public use. The town authorities have
never shown any appreciation of this
or of the other things that Mr. Rocke
feller has done for the community. On
the contrary, they lost no opportunity
to criticise and abuse him because he
refused to turn over the money to them
and let them do the road building. Mr.
Rockefeller hired the men—4oo of them,
all skilled at road building—built the
best roads that could be laid out and
then turned them over for public use.
That made the authorities angry. But
Mr. Rockefeller is determined that if
his money is to be spent for the public
good or for charitable, educational or
religious betterment, he must know
where it is to go, how it is to be used
and what benefits are to be derived
from it.
“When Mr. Rockefeller first came
here to Pocantico Hills, the inhabitants
were actually hostile to him. They sup
posed his intention was F drive them
away, that he proposed ■; tear down
all their cottages and hou >es on his es
tate and compel the people to look else
where for homes. Asa matter of fact
he has not torn down a single house
and will not do so unless perhaps it is
a house that is beyond repair. Every
house on the premises has been repair
ed, painted and made as comfortable
aa possible for the tenants.
“The rents they are asked to pay are
smaller than would be asked if the
houses were owned by any one else. In
many instances Mr. Rockefeller asks
no rent at all, and I can tell you of
families that he has taken care of for
years—families that had met some mis
fortune and that would either have
starved or become public charges had
not Mr. Rockefeller stepped in, furnish
ed medical attention wherever it was
needed, purchased provisions, fuel and
clothing and supplied every want.
“Last year Mr. Rockefeller bought a
parcel of property and added it to his
estate. On it was a house occupied by
a man named Mclntyre, a Scotchmen,
who had a wife and five children. Mac-
Intyre fell sick, lost his position, and
the condition of the family became des
perate. Several of the children be
came ill from lack of nourishment and
neglect, and the matter was finally
called to Mr. Rockefeller’s attention.
It was I who mentioned it to him in a
casual way.
“ ‘Go to them at once,’ he said to me,
‘and see that they get everything they
need. Then report to me.’
“I told him that aside from food they
were most in need of a physician. Mr.
Rockefeller sent to New York for the
best doctors he could obtain, and he
cared for that family for several
months until Mclntyre finally obtained
a Job in Virginia. Then Mr. Rockefel
ler provided transportation all the wry
there for the entire family. That bit
of philanthropy cost Mr. Rockefeller
SBOO. 1 know that, because I handled
most of the money myself.
“On another occasion when the
daughter of Mrs. Smith, who Is the
school janltress, fell ill with scarlet
fever Mr. Rockefeller Insisted upon
her giving up her position and nursing
her daughter back to good health. He
furain obtained the best medical talent
