The Art Of Making Money.

One great cause of the poverty of the
present day, is the failure of many PEG.
pie to appreciate small things. They
say If they cannot save large sums.
they will not save anything They do
not realize how daily addition, be it
ever so small, will soon make large
pile. If the young men and women of
to-day will only begin, and begin now,
TO save money from their earnings, and
invest 1t in some savings bank, and
weekly or monthly add to their mite,
they will wear happy smile of con.
tent and independence when they reach
middle life. Not only the pile itself
will increase, but the desire and ability
to increase it will soon grow. Let the
clerk and tradesman, laborer and arti.
san, make now and at once beginning.
Store up some of your youthful force
and vigor for future contingency. Let
parents teach their children to begin
early to save. Begin at the fountain
head to control the stream Of extrava-
gance, and the work will be easy to |
choose between poverty and riches,
Let our youth 60 on in the habits of ex. |
for fifteen years to come, as
they have for fifty years past, and we
shall be q nation of beggars with a
moneyed aristocracy. Let generation
Of such as save in small sums be reared.
