They are not the men who are always at the front whenever there is any strike, nor are they the men who watch for the clock to strike twelve, and leave their picks hangirg in the air. They are not the men who growl if they are re- quired to attend to some duty a few minutes after the whistle has sounded. They are the men usually who pay the closet attention to the deteils of their businesz, who act as if they were trying to work for their employer’s interest, instead of to beat him at every crook and turn. They arethe men who give the closet attention to every practical detail, and who look continually to see whether they can do any better or not, This class of men are never out of ajub. They are scarce, They never strike, they never loaf, and they do not ask for their pay two or three weeks before. pay day,—- Manufacturers Gazette.
