An old Waterman, who used to keep
guard in the department of Justice, from
long association with the legal lights
in the building believed he had inbibed
fair share of learning in the law, and
so when one night telegram addressed
to the attorney general came after hours
he had no hesitancy in opening ii and
reading its message. 1t asked the ques-
ton, us man to be held responsible
for crime committed while under the
influence Of liquor" The Waterman
pondered over this message for some
time, and, as he knew what the infiu-
ence Of liquor was, he sent the laconiC
answer: mo indeed. (Signed) John
Jones, in charge of department of jus
tice." OF course there was an immedi
ate attack on the attorney general fol
such decision, and the matter came
to the ears of the department. An inves
tigation was made and the watchmar
suspended for three months. That die
not worry him, however. With eff
frontery that simply dumfounded tn,

pay day during that time of suspension

WHAT TO 90 WITH ONES MONEY!

ouggestions For Those VIE Do Nee
'spend ~ They Co"
A woman who probably voices the
question OF a great many other women
writes to ask how she shall invest he-
savings. She is working woman who
has accumulated q small sum, which
she naturally wishes to use in accumu-
lating more. The amount she haspsaved
is not large enough for her to invest in
real estate or in any large enterprise.
About two years ago this same ques-
tion was asked, and we put the problem
before the leading business mon and
financiers. They answered the question
almost unanimously. They advocated
the saving of the money in savings
banks at small rate of interest until
such time as there should be sufficient
money to invest in a good first mort
gage or in desirable real estate. The
reason for this decision was that won.

tive scheme. The savings banks offer a
secure place for depositing money, and
the income from them, while small, is
certain. Four per cent. assured and safe,
is better for most women than larger
profits and greater risks.
| When the small sum has grown to be
considerable one, first mortgages on
good property form an admirable invest
ment for women's savings. They yield
an income Of about 6 per cent in most
states and are about as safe as saving
banks. Land has an agreeable quality
Of remaining where it is, and improve

gage. By first mortgage is meant the

the amount of the loan in due time,
will be paid first.
Investment in real estate is not SC
satisfactory. Property in places where
the value of land is not liable to be di.
minished costs good deal, in the first
place. Then there are taxes, insurance
and constant repairs to decrease the
profits. Still land has an advantage OF
other investments in its comparative
stability. Louis Post Dispatch.
