A Debtors Advice.

A gentleman of San Francisco, SAYS the
Argondut, has devoted great part of the
time he has spent on the Pacific coast in
contracting bills, which he does not find
could be conveniently paid WI en- due.
Having lived IN California since 1869,
and being what is called generous liv-
er, he has numerous creditors, and the
sum of his debts is respectfully large.
Some years ago he determined to attempt
gradual payment of all his liabilities.
Endowed with fine sense of Justice it
puzzled him to decide upon a plan of
liquidation that would be fair and equita-
BILE to all hls creditors. After long
consideration he hit upon a method
which he found entirely satisfactory. He
explained his plan the other day to one
of his recently acquired creditors. A bill
was presented him with a request for
immediate payment. He took the ac-
count, and carefully checked all the
items and footing up the long column OF
figures, found all correct. Then he quiet
ly and neatly folded up the bill and filed
1t away in a pigeon-hole marked "W."
Turning to his waiting creditor. he ex-
planned as follows: "Mr. Williams, 1t will
be some time yet before youl bill will
come up IN the regular order, but you
may depend upon my attention. Some
years ago adopted an alphabetical sys-
tenn of paying off my Indebtedness, and I
have now got as far as Z. Don't trouble
yourself to call again. AS soon as / get
to w, will call upon you with the
amount Struck with the debtors sys-
tematic.and equitable method of doing
business, hopefully withdrew.
