Dead Stock
Possibilities
Saturday morning I had a 10 a. m.
appointment with a Chicago man anil
ho had telephoned that he would be
an hour late. After debating in my
mind and waiting twenty minutes I
decided to borrow paper and find a
desk and start this subject. After
writing a few words a man came in
and laid a package on the desk and be-
gan talking with a man at a nearby
desk. Thinking he used the desk i
was at I left it and again sat down
on the callers' couch hy the elevator
door and before I had written a
minute there, my 10 a. m. man
walked i n at 10;2r>. Now. I had
reasoned that as he had been de-
tained beyond 3 0 a. m. ho might be
released before 11 a. m.. and he was.
When he came in he politely explained
and as he had a man with him he said
he would see me In a moment. Soon
he eamo oui and invited me into his
office, saying that he could give mo a
half hour. It took us about fifteen
minutes to advance our subject a
step and make another appointment
for 10 a. m. Monday.
1 got there seven minutes late that
morning, and he was much later, but
1 got at tills letter again. Now po-
liteness pays. Had 1 been Indifferent
to the man who put the bundle on the
desk Saturday morning 1 would not
have seen my man when he came in.
Inquiry pays also, because just now j
hy more thorough inquiry than I made
on coming in. I find my man is sick
at his home and not likely to lie down
this a. m. Waiting time is "dead
stock" time and it pays to he able to
invest it hy thinking or writing. Tlie
skillful handling of irritating things
produces pearls—even an oyster
knows that. A foundry salesman on
the road tolil me if he had to wait two
or three days to see his man he got
so rattled that he seldom sold any-
thing in that town that trip. If he had
studied how to use his time artgtit
while he walled he might have made
an extra good sale. While speaking
to some men at the Ravenswood asso-
ciation I asked the secretary if he had
any cards which were printed on only
one side and which he intended to
throw away. He said yes, and got a
bundle for me. I passed them out to
the men. explaining that the cards
were known as "dead stock” In the
stock mom and that we could bring
them to life, ami as I talked to them
I wanted tiiem to write some thought
or question on the back of the cards I
for my work. Then I collected the
cards and secured some information i
personally useful to me. ] have res-
ent'd a strong catalogue from the

Desirable
Longevity
Very old men with young hearts
have always interested me.
When 1 began studying the daily
sources of desirable longevity ray in-
terest in tlie healthy-elderly in-
creased.
A few weeks ago I met in a Chi-
cago bank a six-foot-six gentleman
who had been enjoying life for near-
ly eighty years.
After telling him about my new in-
terest in longevity Torres and asking
him for a tall; on the subject, he re-
plied: "Well, you have struck me at
a bad time, i am going East to-night
for three months.”
On suggesting that he might give
me in a minute a few hints for young
men. he told me this:
"Extreme regularity in eating,
sleeping and working have been my
rule. My Sunday is not as regular
as other days and I do not feel as
well on account of it.”
On a previous occasion he had told
me that he ate what he liked and
wanted and that he had not lost an
office day oil account of sickness in
forty-five years. He was a healthy
man and enjoyed wholesome food. He
had high motives and a shining face.
He made money and used it wisely.
You can appreciate my intense
feelings when 1 read that a few days
ago he was killed hy a train while
crossing a track in an Eastern town.
Collected Paragraphs.
Thomas A. Edison says: "1 believe
the life of a man can he prolonged.
Man ought to live to be a hundred
years of age.”
The Chicago Record says: "Within
less than thirty years the average
duration of life has nearly doubled
iu Chicago.”
One doctor says: “Good care has
more to do with longevity than in-
herited qualities."
Another doctor says: "Hard work
seldom kills—it doesn't wear us out
very test, but it is the running con-
stantly and the overstrain of one part
that causes the trouble."
A jolly old centenarian said: "Stop
when you have eaten enough.”
An educator says: “Beeomtng thor-
oughly interested In a good spare-
time hobby is very likely to improve
one's health and lengthen life.”
"As long ns the world has existed
mankind lias been searching ways to
lengthen life. Sensible people nowa-
days think the best elixir of life is
fresh air. sunshine, the right kind of
food and a good temper."
"Dr. Holmes thought a mortal sick-
ness an element of longevity, and it
is true that serious weakness is not
only frequently coupled with great
ability, hut with unusually long iiving
also.”
Sickness is intended to he one of
life's steppiug stones and a kind
warning, but frequently it, by perver-
sion, becomes a millstone around a
human neck.
More machinery is jerked out than

Completely Restored to Health.
Mrs. P. Brunzel, wife of . Brunzel,
Stock dealer, residence 3111 Grand
Ave., Everett, Wash., says: "For fif-
teen yeare 1 suffered
with terrible pain in
my back. 1 experi-
mented with doc-
tors and medicines
but got little if any
relief. I actually be-
lieve the aching In
in my back and
through the groin
becamo worse. 1 did
not know what It
was to enjoy a
night's rest and
arose in the morn-
ing ieeling tired nnd
unrefres lied. My
suffering sometimes wras simply indes-
cribable. Finally, 1 saw Doan’s Kid-
ney Pills advertised and got a box.
After a few doses I told my husband
that 1 was feeling much better and
that the pills were doing me good.
When 1 finished that box 1 felt like a
different woman. I didn’t stop at that,
though. I continued the treatment
until 1 had taken five boxes. There
was no recurrence until a week ago,
when I began to feel miserable again.
1 bought another box and three days’
treatment restored me to health.
Doan's Kidney Pills act very effective-
ly, very promptly, relieve the aching
pains and all other annoying difficul-
ties. 1 have recommended them to
many people and will do so when op-
portunities present Themselves.
