in principle whether that credit is contained

United STATES SAVINGS RAAk

Tho supe rintendent of money orders at
Chicago says that the number of people
who buy postal orders as a safe way to
keep their savings is increasing phenom-
enally. The theatrical people in this way
take cut 10000 a month. He says:
I'VE have always issued some money
orders that We knew were taken simply in
order to safeguard the money. but | should
estimate that our business of this kind had
increased over 100 per cent since the banks
began to fail last winter People come to
us and take out orders payable to them
selves at some ore of the SubStatiOnS of
the city. they never go near that SubSta-
zion. but when they want the cash. or part
of it. they come back to for it. Some
times they accumulate as much $1,000
or 81 30 in this way.

basin near old Faithful. Kept by very
intelligent and ingenious man. He got
acquainted last year with a She-bear. who
used to come to his house every day,
and walk into the kitchen for food for her
self and her two cubs. The cubs never
came. The keeper got very intimate
terms with the bear. who was always civil
and well-behavel. and would take food
from his hand without taking the hand.
lone day toward sunset the bear came
to the kitchen. and having received her
portion. went out of the back door to
carry it to her cubs. To her surprise and
anger the cubs were there, waiting for
her. She laid down the food and rushed
at her infants and gave them rousing
spanking. She did not cuff them, she
spanked them. and then she drove them
back into the woods, cutting them and
knocking them at every step.
When she reached the spot where she
had told them to wait for her she left
them and returned to the houses. And
there she stayed in the kitchen for two
hours. making the disobedient children
wait for their food. simply to discipline
them and teach them obedience.
The explanat ton of her behavior is
easy. When the bear leaves her young
