HOW THEY niSPOSF. OF BORES. Ingenions Devlrix Itixtorted to i:.T t'ro'iilnrr.t RusinesR Men. Ore of the most serious problema for busy men and nu-a of prominence io eohe is how not to sio peo. pie without giving offence. Also It Is quite as vexing r problem and quite hh serious a one to find a way to get rid of callers expeditiously. The average caller who has succeeded In getting an audience with some promtaeut man is very apt lo forget how very valuable that prominent man s time Is and to feel

no compunction or hesitancy in monopolizing us much of it at may suit hla own sweet will. Of course this does not apply to the stereotyped and well known class of bores after they have been found out to be such. An attendant or a clerk with ordinary discrimination and discernment easily detects the professional bore and keeps him away from annoying his ehlef. There •re, however, plenty of well mean Ing people In business and the professions who are bores without knowing It. They are the amateur kind and would be very much offended If they were classed as business annoyances. It la against the persistency of this kind of people that the busy man has to employ his Ingenuity. The Wall Street magnate, bank president or head of a big mercantile house Is perforce obliged to see many people In the course of the day. Sometimes the callers run Into the hundreds. It Is therefore Important to limit the calls of those who have but little business to transact to as few moments as possible and to get rid of them without in any way giving offence or breaking In on the business relations which already exist. Many and varied are the schemes Utilized to this end. There Is hardly a big office downtown that has not some special method of Its own of accomplishing this end. Perhaps one of the most amusing and at the same time simple methods of nil employed Is that of one of the magnates of the Standard Oil. He Is a very difficult man to see at best unless the caller la personally known to him or has some really Important business that the secretary cannot attend to. Naturally this condition frequently arises, and the magnate's method of making the call brief is to have the caller shown Into u reception rc-otn lu which there are no chairs. Of course, the magnate's suite of offices contains other reception rooms, In which there are plenty of chairs, but this especial room, reserved and set aside for the "quick cnllars." Is entirely devoid of anyplace to sit down on. There are elaborate tables with Inkstands and

pen pads, and also roller top desks. It would be a sacrilege to even lean •gainst any of them. This particular magnate has learned by long experience that when once a man stts on a chair he Is likely to sit there very much longer than he Is wanted. The caller Is shown Into this ehalrlest room. The magnate Is hero waiting for him with a pleasant ■ mile and a warm handshake. He tails hla business, naturally as brief at be cun, because It Is not the most comfortable thing In the world to •land up and be verbose. The result Is entirely satisfactory to all parties. The visitor goes away quickly. He haa told all he has to say and the magnate tt saved any embarrssntng remarks to the effect that "You will have to excuse me now,” or "I am very busy," or words to that effect. That Is the method of the Htandard Oil's quick action with caller* they do not to have linger. Proeees servers do not even gel that amelioration of kindness. Then there Is also a theatrical manager who has a method of Id*

Why Colds are Dangerous.

You are otten zz:z to ‘‘beware of i a cold,” but why? We will tell you: i Every cold weakens the lungs, lowers, | the vitality anj paves the way for I the more serious diseases. People who contract pneumonia first tiiKe cold. The longer a cold hangs on the greater the danger, especially from the germ diseases, as a cold prepares the system for the recer tion and development of the germs of consumption, diptheria, scarlet fever and whooping cough. The quicker you get rid of your cold, the less the danger of contracting one of these diseases. Chamberlain’s Cough Rem edy has a great reputation as a cure for colds and can he depended fcjfon It is pk-sant to take. —Adv.

CLOSED AN& SILENT TEMPLES. Six Days Out of Soven Thalr Great Wealtn la Nonproductive. I euppoee many readers will ha startled and sume offended, at least la their first impression, when they see our churches arraigned as misusers of wealth, saya Cleveland Moffet in Success. How is that possible? they will pi-otest. Are not our churches obviquely and conspicuously devoted to the general good? Are they not guided by able and unselfish wen who devote their lives to the spiritual needs of their fellow-men? And is It not preposterous to charge them with misusing wealth, either shamefully or otherwise, when everyone knows that most of our churches are struggling under a burden of debt? All that is true enough, yet the briefejjt consideration makes it dear that the hundred thousand churches In America (let us take that number for the sake of argument) are trying to do their work under conditions that would be consldei-ed foolish and wasteful If they existed In any ordinary enterprise. Imagine a hundred thousand department stores doing active business only one day In seven and remaining closed for the other ax days or, at best doing a lanquid business on one or two odd atternoonr! Imagine a hundred thousand theaters giving perfoimances two or three evenings a week and then remaining closed and silent for four or five evenings! Imagine a hundred thousand factories working 10 hours a day for a single day In seven and perhaps working five hours a day for two other days, and then letting their fine engines and machinery lie idle all the rest of the time! We should call It stupid and extravagant folly, wo should expect such foolish factories, theaters and department stores to lose both In money and in genera) esteem and. If such conditions persisted, we should conclude either that the directors of these activities were hopelessly incompetent, or that there was a very small demand for what they were trying to furnish. Of course wo have grown up in the Idea that It is the right and natural state of churches to he closed and silent most of the time, just why no one can say, but being creatures of habit, we accept things as we find them. We expect our houses to be used every day, our barns to be used every da> our shops, libraries, bos- I ! ‘als, office huildlnrs, all the str.iclure# on our soil we expect to he used every day, rave only the churches which are the most cosilv and (he most beautiful. Theso we expect To be used occasionally, less than half the time, probably not. one- j third of the time, yet the churctica i represent the huge material luvr.-t. i ment based on infinite labor and sr.v- i mg a value far greater than all the r Id coin in the United States, a value, c'Hintlng land and buildings, that c - ainly exceeds $200,000,000: i On which the money Inicrest at five I p. r cent, would be $250,000 a day! And the spiritual daily equivalent,— w--li that is beyond our reckoning, but It should fia very great and proclous to offset so huge a sum. And most of the days ft Is wasted!
