The Waus
of Thrift
Bp
George Elmer Cobb
(Copyright 1816 by W O Chapman)
“We came from the same town we
went to the same school We’re pret-
ty good chums Uncle Davenport so
If you can give Ned Dorsett a job it
will please me almosf as much as
when you put me at this desk”
Lucius Hale gazed proudly at his en-
vironment He had a little corner In
the splendid office with his desk rug
and swivel chair He felt a sense of
importance for once In a while he was
bent onto the floor of the big grain
exchange posing as magnificently as
though he were a real member of the
board
“I'm all filled up here Lucius” spoke
his uncle "I think though I Can do
something for him in the main offices
of the board I'll try anyhow”
The Influential leader did try With-
in a week the second boy from the
country be had befriended gloried in a
position humble paying half what his
friend Lucius received but eminently
satisfied and happy
Lucius and Ned had never been to
the city to try their fortunes and the
kind-hearted relative of Lucius had ex-
erted himself nobly In their behalf
Lucius was the “niftier appearing” of
the two He had better clothes he
had never had to work while Ned
had done odd Jobs for a living for over
a year to help along the old folks
The bright quick ways of Lucius had
pleased his uncle The steady plod-
ding method of Ned however had also
attracted ' the merchant’s favorable
notice
“So It’s here they put you?” re-
marked Lucius appearing one day for
the first time In the sample room of
“I’ve’ Made Bad Break Ned1
which Ned had been placed In charge
This was a large but Btuffy office sur-
rounded by shelves These held in-
numerable paper and canvas bags all
in systematic rows They contained
samples of wheat corn oats barley
and other grains Each sack bore a
tag telling the grade owner and date
of placing the grain in the elevators
“Yes this Is my own particular
den” replied Ned cheerily “It's easy
work except when the traders are on
the floor Then a dozen of them rush in
at one time and have to have their
samples In a Jiffy You've got to know
Just where to put your hand on number
so and bo Then they’ve got to be all
sealed up again If a sale is made”
“I get off at two-thirty every day”
vaunted Lucius proudly
“Well I can leave when the ex-
change closes” explained Ned “but I
attend to the sweeping after that”
“Sayt” ejaculated Lucius In dismay
— “you don't get down to do that do
you?”
“Yes indeed and it’s getting down
too!” laughed Ned “You see those
grain pits are Just choked up with
grain and paper and cigar stubs when
that unruly crowd gets through Oh
yes I got the sweeping contract”
“Contract!" snorted Lucius
“Why yes The old sweeper got
the rheumatism and he turned it over
to me”
' “What do you get out of it?”'
“Why there isn't a day when the
crowd doesn't pelt each other with
samples when the settling sales com
around You’ll be surprised to know
what heap of grain a fellow can
gather up”
“Chicken feed?”
“Just that I get thirty cents bush-
el for all I can pick up”
But Ned did not tell Lucius chum
though he was what this humble
branch of his Industry amounted to In
the aggregate They had In fact drift-
ed somewhat apart since coming to
the city together Ned was economical
had to send money home to the old
folks and had taken a cheap but com-
fortable room in an unpretentious
quarter Lucius had flashed out
prodigiously he had “apartments” he
joined a club and bragged of making
one or two successful “specs” on the
board
Ned continued to plod Lucius led
the spectacular career of a brilliant
meteor They drifted farther apart
aa time went on In fact after a spell
Utu oiuy occasions upon wmen ducius
sought out Ned was when he came to
borrow money
There came some “news” for the
boys about a year after they had come
to the city Lucius might have added
an Important item to his statement
that he and Ned had come from the
same town and had gone to the same I
flilinnl Thin war that they Invert tha
8CU001 inis was xnat mey lovea me
Same girl "
I V - I I
In Arden they had left behind them
the “sweetest little maiden ever was"
Lucius had declared and Ned had
echoed the sentiment fervently She
had been a true friend to both The
“news” alluded to was contained In
two letters written at the same time
by Olive Merton to Ned and Lucius
respectively announcing that she was !
going to visit an aunt in the city for
two weeks
“I'm going to give the dear girl the
time of her life!”-vaunted Lucius
“Can’t I help a little?” queried Ned
with a pleasant smile
They called together upon Olive the
evening after she arrived in the city
As usual Lucius monopolized her
Olive had grown prettier than ever
Lucius In his rattlebrain way proceed-
ed to map out a whole week of eve-
nings for her entertainment Modest
retiring Ned let him have his own
way He was satisfied to give Lucius
his show
The latter took Olive to the movies
to the park he treated her to in-
numerable sodas and boxes of candy
He was “short” at just that period he
told Ned as he proceeded to borrow
five dollars from him Then came
Ned’s turn
Lucius had fancied that his cheap
entertainment was good enough for a
country girl Ned did not believe any-
thing was too good for Olive Lucius
started when he learned that Ned had
done things up In style He had given
Olive and her aunt a tour of the parks
in an automobile He had taken them
to a beach resort for a whole day
He had Invited them to an operatic
concert where the price of admission
was fairly prohibitive
Olive went back home with pleasant
memories that would never dim Ned
went back to work the proudest hap-
piest young man In Christendom
Lucius sought him out aae day with
a glum face his gay feathers some-
what ruffled pitifully down on his
luck
“I’ve made a bad break Ned” he an-
nounced glumly “went In too deep
on some futures uncle heard of It and
I’m shipped to another city — elevator
clerk — where I’ve got to plug at it for
two years at hard desk training or
uncle will drop me Could you let
me have a fifty till I get my first pay
at my new Job?”
“I'll do that” replied Ned readily
“and I hope you won't try to fly too
high again Lucius till you’re sure of
your wings”
“I say!” exclaimed Lucius as h
chanced to get a glance at the stub in
the check book In which Ned was writ-
Ing “you’ve got some balance at
bank I should say!”
“Oh comfortable” emiled Ned
“Those sweepings Lucius — the two
hours extra drudgery a day speak out
in pretty large figures”
“I should say so!” muttered Lucius
enviously
“And saving — the ways of thrift you
know? I'vo got a new Impetus since
I’ve become engaged ’’
"Engaged? Who to?” blurted out
Lucius
“Why haven’t you guessed It— to
Olivo Merton” was the speedy reply
and Lucius Hale felt that he had
missed the real things of life all
around
WE NOW SPEAK IN BILLIONS
Englishman in Investigating American
Finance Had to Send
for Help
The finite mind of mere man be-
comes befogged at the Infinite figures
necessary to express a billion dollars
It would be easier for the mind’s eye
to picture a flock of fifty Equitable
buildings worth $20000000 a piece
than to grasp the abstract idea of a
billion perfectly good American dol-
lars Yet the American industrial and
railroad companies always work on
such totals In their business conduct
says Wall Street Journal
Recently the representative of a
leading English journal who is over
here to prepare an American special
number visited Washington and
talked with the president cabinet and
heads of the departments and bureaus
He returned to New York and Inter-
viewed some of the capitalists and the
burden of his first cable to his em-
ployers ran something llkev this: “I
thought I could do this Job alone but
I am among a people who think and
speak of billions and frankly I must
have help as I feel that my mind
alone cannot grasp the imihensity of
this country’s wealth and operations”
Precautionary
“Can you accommodate myself nnd
family for summer board?”
“What’s your politics?” Inquired
Farmer Cdrntossel
“Does that rauke any difference?’’
“Yep I’m not going to take another
chance on havin' the whole place
stirred up with arguments day an’
nlpht All the folks that board here
thi i summer has got to have the same
poUtlcs”
The ' Advantage ef Poverty
“There's one advantage in being
poor”
“I’d like to know what It is”
“Well If a poor man has a few
friends he’s deud certain that they
like him for whnt he Is not for whai
he has and a rich man Isn’t so sure'

The Wheat Yield
Tells the Story
of Wesfarn Canada’s Rapid Progress
The heavy crops in Western Canada have caused
new records to be made in the handling of grains
by railroads For while the movement of these
heavy shipments has been wonderfully rapid the
resources of the different roads despite enlarged
equipments and increased facilities have been
strained as never before and previous records
have thus been broken in all directions
The largest Canadian wheat shipments through New York ever known
are reported for the period up to October 15th upwards of lour nd a
quarter million bushel being exported In leas than ix weeks
and this was but the overflow of shipments to Montreal through which
point shipments were much larger than to New York
Yields as high as 60 bushels of wheat per acre are reported from all
parts of tho country while yields of 45 bushels per acre are common
Thousands of American farmers have taken part in this wonderful pro-
duction Land prices are still low and free homestead lands are eaaily secured
in good localities convenient to churches achoola markets railways etc

Women who are well often ask "Arw

” Why do women write s-ch letters!
In answer we say that never have w
published a fictitious letter or nanteu1
Never knowingly have we published
an untruthful letter or one without the
full and written consent of the woman
who wrote it
The reason that thousands of women
from atl parts of the country write suck
grateful letters to the Lydia E Pink-
