The Man in Dcbt.

There Is no greater spur 10 a young
man of acute intellect and sound
health than humping debt of. say
$4,000. How inferior are the novels
written by BalZac before he had in
CURED great obligations to those writ
ten in hope of freedom from his debt.
Furthermore. man who owes a large
sum OF money seems to be respected by
the butcher. baker and candle-stick
maker more than the thrifty. anxious
soul who Is disquieted by triiIng
unpaid bill. The audaciOus debtor is
pointed out to strangers. not dcrisive-
". not with the finger of reprOach. but
as historical building. a landmark
in the community. He wears the best
of clothes. eats and drinks sumbus-
tiOusly. sits in the chief seats in the
theatcr. and. as rule. spends the sum
mcr on a steam yacht. The man who
owes 500. .00h is far better of. so far as
this world goes. than the man who
owes so. Are there not banks that
lend cheerfully to him who already
owes them $4,000, fearing possibly
that. if angered by refusal. the debtor
will never pay even a portion of the
original debt: Yes. Il young man of
acute intellect and sound body should
contract as soon as possible after he
starts in business a humping debt.
The only trouble is the difficulty
in finding any one who will lend the
first $50. 600. We have not found him
yet. and we have been sea ching for
him since fS19.-BOston Journal.
