THE DIME CRAZE.
Saving All tho Ten-Cent Pieces
Got in Change.
Interesting Experiences OF Those Who
Have Tried lt-One Young Man
Who Got q Wife by tho
Novel Scheme.

Two young gentlemen stepped into
q cigar store yesterday, and one of
them bought and paid for two cigars.
The cigars cost ten cents each, and the
man who sold them handed back, in
change for the silver dollar that had
been rendered him. eighty cents in ten
cent pieces. Thereupon one of the
young men laughed vociferously, and
the other, who had bought the cigars,
pocketed the eight dimes. with an ex-
preston approaching chagrin. and
said: ''Just my luck. by George.
However" said he. after lighting his
cigar. IF there's any more spending
to be done, old fellow, you've got it to
do, for I'm broke"
When the young man left the store
the cigar man turned to q Republican
reporter who had witnessed the trans
action and said:
DO you know what that means?'
Mo-
1T means that the young fellow
who bought the cigars is at the same
time eighty cents ahead and eighty
cents behind. He is ahead in money
that he will save and behind in money
that he probably wanted to use to-
day."
Il don't understand you"
''Well. the young man has simply
caught the dime saving craze"
"And what is the dime-saving
craze?"
lit is something that may not be
exactly new. but is new for all that l
know to the contrary. The scheme is
never to spend dime. It was proba-
bly, devised for the benefit of thriftless
people who are not able to save their
money in regular way. and for plan
Of saving it is one Of the best ever
heard of. Hundreds of young fellows
have caught it. and limit their wants
accordingly. My business suffers from
the practice to some extent. but not q
great deal. In fact, am something
Of dime-saver myself, and get new
customers by explaining the plan to
them and getting them to adopt il.
They come in to see me about it nearly
every day, and tell me how well they
are doing"
Surprising you give mo the plan
more in detail"
"Well. you make up your mind to
keep every dime that comes into your
possession. You are never to part
with tcn-cent piece under any cir
cumstances. Whenever you receive a
dime in change put it away. and when
you get home place it in box or re-
ceptacle for safe-keeping. The more
dimes you get in change the greater
your savings will be. You are to
make any sacrifice rather than to part
with one dime. II you have nothing
bat dimes in your pocket when you
want n cigar. GO without the cigar. II
You want lunch and have nothing but
dimes, 60 without lunch. II you have
only dime in your pocket and want
to ride home on a horse-car. brace up
and walk. Save your dimes.
..Well. what will be the result Of
