The six -o'clock bell had. rung,
Land the clerks at Munger Z Ath.
wold's were putting awe. the :etaok
that had been left on the counters,
Two young clerks, Harry and Wel;
ter,, friends and recent confers to
the store, worked at the came coun-
ter. W1Len the last bok hoed :been,
put in place, W,plterto sed and
began to study the labels..en. the
rows of 'boxes on the shelf.
” What are you '.doing,'aa i”l".
asked Harry, with languid interest,
as he drew on a pair of new gloves.
.Harry was good-looking, and he
knew it, and he had spent all that
he had earned, so far, on clothes.
Once or twice he had seen Mr. AtIi-
wold himself looking over with
what he thought was an approving
glance, and he had remarked confi-
dentially to Walter that "it paid to
keep well-groomed. The manage-
ment wasn't likely to promote a
clerk whose looks were not a credit
to the store."
Walter understood the insinua-
tion. Nature had not gifted him
with good looks: Moreover, he- had.
a, widowed mother to ;support, and
he had to wear a suit that was not
exactly shabby, but that wasfar
from new.
Now Harryhad repeat i
to p his
question before Walter answered.
"I'm going to study._stock a fe
minutes. I -don't know just where
everything is, yet."
Harry laughed a cahtemptuous
little. laugh. "You don't catch •'dis :.
chile' studying stoe z after hours.
If you don't know where a thing is,
ask somebody ` else. That's my
motto."
Things went on as usual for the
next three weeks.` Then '.One day
Mr.. Athwold Walked down the
aisle. He' stopped at the counter
where the 'b*o friends stood, and.
asked Harry t0.• ,wait on him.
`!Will you chow, me some ,pajam-
as:" he.said
"What size 1" ' asked -Harry.
Mr. Athwolcl appeared to hesi-
tate. "I really have forgotten
hat size I ado . wear. What size
would. you ;:suggest 1'r
Harry .had"no suggestion to offer.
"Let zee see the: largest size, you
have," Mr. Athwold said, finally.
Harry nulled out several boxes,
1 , . l *-1 tb ''rummage through
hem. , Then he turned to Walter.
'Say, Walt, ' are 'theist any larger
sizes than these in sternkf"
Walter put his hand iltitantly up-
on the size desired.
Me. AMhwold chose a, suit,' and
hen asked to see seine hose, size
11?e. Hairy hunted aimlessly for a
minute or two, but could not find
Arty half -sizes. He called upon
Walter again,;and , Walter ;imme-
diately found. the = right. box.
Next Mr. Athswold asked for a'
pair of extra -length suspenders,
then for some collars of &shape'
that differed a little from the kind
usually sold, and.finally for gloves
with cadet fingers. In not asingle
instance could Harry find the a.rti
ole desired. But Walter got it with
a promptness that showed how per-
fectly he knew the stock.
The next morning Walter was
called to the office. He went with
fear and trembling, but when he
came back his face was beaming,
"What's up I" asked Harry, cur-
iously.
Walter told him. He had been
promoted to the position of head
clerk, with a substantial raise in
salary.
Harry's face fell. 'You!" he ex-
aaie etL... "Why, he almost prom -
sed. that to me. He told father'
hree weeks ago that, Jerrold was
oing to `leave, and that I was in
ane for promotion. But that's just
t," he added, with easy ph.iloso-
hy. "You can't put any depen-
• once on a man's word nowadays."
Ready to. Quit.
Pat had been at work for three
ays digging a well,' and as the fore -
an wanted it finished within'. the
week lie had promised Pat another
'an to help him. It was getting ,on
to le o'clock ,and Towser, the fore-,
man's bulldog, was looking oven
the edge of the pit, when Pat said
to himself, "I'll have a smoke." ]W
Siad. filled his pipe arid' was. about;
to light it, when lie glanced lip'
and -beheld' Towser's ' handsome.
fes'.ttureg.
Slowly moving' his pipe front 'his
mouth, he said, "Be-e-gorra; Oi've
wor-rkcd wid Germans and Hen
garaans, and Oi've worked with
Ooitalians, but if a man "wid a face
like that comes down to work be-
side,9ne Oi gets up."
When the girl yawns it's the
cung man's cue to get into the
home stretch.

COREAN JUSTICE.
The Judges Have a Poor Idea of
Administering It.
The Lorean judge dispenses jus
ties an the open, and by etiquette
only the judge can sit; everyone
else must stand, excepting the pri-
soner and his friends, who are
forced to remain inan humble
kneeling/ position with' bowed
heads, says the Wide World Maga-
zine. Until quite recently these
trials were always very one-sided
and shockingly unjust. When n
man was •brought to a judge; it was
taken for granted he was guilty,
and, if he did not confess he was
tortured and made to. do so. Wit-
nesses, too, were openly* bribed. In
fact, giving evidence' for or against
an accused person meant a living to
a -portion of the community, and
these witnesses naturally favored
those who paid best., Punishments
varied. If the prisons , were too
full, and the condemned could not
pay .a fine, they were oftengiven a
chance to escape, or disappeared
by some means. Though these are.
'things of the past, Corean judges,•
like':those of China, possess a poor
idea of the sense of justice.

SALT AND 'GOOD, LOOKS.
German Physician Advises Its Cl,.c
to Whiten Skin.
According to a German psr i t.
salt taken with food has"a 'whiten•.
ing effect on the skin. This i.s ac;
counted for by the :fact that it i';
a compound 'containing the power-
ful bleaeliing agent, chlorine. At
any, rate, it is undoubted that white
people eat much more common salt
than dark rages.
Fruit, on the other hand, dark-
ens the skin, because it contains
salts of manganese,
Besides whitening the skin it is
probable that abundance' of salt iu
the diet makes the face :and the
whole body 'plump. '' When a per-
son eats salt •freely the;,re,sult is
that the blood, skin, museles, see<.
retain a great ' quantity of\. luid:..
Hence the effect on 'the 'face tw"ou:id
be to make it full and rounded.
But it should lie eaten with .judg-
ment and moderation. If 'a young
girl eats a large quantity of salt
and makes her face plump then the
skin is stretched and, as she grows
older and• drier, wrinkles appear.
But if she uses a saltless diet while
young; then when the wrinkles
come she shotld be able to disperse
them by adding salt to -her diet.
.So far'as observatidn goes salt
has the -virtue: ofp reserving the
health of the `skin and preventing
,eruptions ; But only; when used in
moderatiOii' is it of real service,
and..., people with ' weak hearts . or
kidneys or 'who hax'e :'a, tendency
to dropsy, are better 'without any
or with the smallest possible
quantity.
