Profit System Ensures - Consumer Fair Chance If your goods are acceptable, or your services useful, you will receive a profit. If, on the other hand. your fellow creatures decide (wisely or un‘wisely, it makes no matter) that they do not wiunt your goods, or that they will get on better without your servIces, then you will make a los§g. The profit-making system is (he only one under whicl, the consumer cdn be perfectly sure of obtaining the article he wants—any other scheme can only mean that He will have forced upon him the article which somebody else things he ought to want. -Working for a profit on an individualistic system ulso ensures that the. people who receive the goods are the same as tlicse who pay for them—a very important point. Based upon the interests of the consumer, it is -the only system . under which the consunier can ever stand a chance. We ean make no nioney, we can do no good, unless we can persuade others to accep! our. services at the value that we and they jointly place upon them.—lrnest J. P. Benn, “The Confessions of a Capitalist.”

Ancient Nautical Terms Still Used on Vessels On all seagoing vessels both merchant “marine and wmen-of-war, men work In shifts; watches is the nautical term. The watch from 8 p. m. to midnizht is called the “first watch” sirice’ at one time it was regarded as the flist watch in the day. Then came the “mid watch,” from midnight to 4 a. m., as it comes in the middle of the night. Then followed the “niornIng,” the *“forenoon” and the afternoon” wwatches. .The watch from 4 p. m. to & p. m. is called the “evening watch,” but it is often divided into two-hour watches and called the “first 'dog” and “second dog” watches. These were thus named because the sailormen of another day regarded them as so short that even a dog could not catch a nap durlng one of them. .The “second dog” watch s sometimes” ‘called the “admiral’s watch” since it is the watch the highest in command would choose for himself, In which the officer would relleve after supper and get relleved early with all night left for sleep.

The Junkman

Consider. sir, the junkman! Hef s a high commissioned ofticer in the war against waste. He -even merits a medal with palms, for. he .is duily as sisting in the important work of conserving values - and, by preventing waste, makes substantial contribution to the world’s store of weulth. In recent years, reclamation of basic materials -has been so extensively developed as to have attained a high peak of economic prominence. Skilled sc¢lentists in the employ of our large corporations give their entire time—long hours every duy—to the reduction of waste, fhereby swelling surplus profIts which otherwise would he forfelted. The junkman, in his own way, s serving the same purpose,

Napoleon’s Prophecy

“Not one of my descendants or relatives is capable of regaining the throne of Fraunce. So the girls had better marry ilnto the Colonna and Orsini families. These are the families that produce popes,” so confided Napoleon to General Bertrand. one of his closest companions.

Scotsmen Fooled

Canny Scotsmen were taken in l'e-l cently by the shining reeth of a sheep, forgetting that all that glistens is/not gold. A sheep’s Jawhone from thel lead-mining distriet of Scotland was found to contain teeth which had a° metallic luster. and it was popularly} supposed that the luster indicated a deposit of gold. However, the teeth were analyzed by the Rritish government chemist in L.ondon and he found | traces of lead but no gold. The metallic sheen appeared to be due to the effect of light on a laminated, or flaked, crystalline structure, mainly caleium phosphate. ' o

¥ - NS SR I el Y % Wave Speed Difference : _ Gives Strange Effects . Sound. travels through the zir at -the rate of one mile in five seconds. . Ether waves have a velocity a milillon times greater.

One’s delight in an elderberry bush _ overhanging the confused leafage of .8 hedgerow hank, as a more gladdenf‘ing sight than the flnest cistus or fuchsia spreading itself on the soft.est undulating turf is an entirely unJustifiable preference to a nursery gardener, or to any of those . ; who are free from the weakness of any attachment that does not rest on a demonstrable superiority of qualitles. Angd there is mo better reason for preferring this elderberry bhush ' than that it stirs an early memory; ‘that 1t 13 no anovelty . . . speaking to me merely through my present -sensibilities to form and color, but -the long cempanion of my existence, 'that wove Itself inte my Jjoys when joys are vivid.—From “The Mill on the Floss,” by George Bilot.
