The lower class Russian exhibits a
preference for his boots or the lining
of his clothes as hiding place for his
savings.
The Frenchman makes use of leath-
err purse, with no distinguishing char

he carries with him.
The German uses u purse, gayly en-
broidered in silks by the fair hands of
some Lottchen or Nina, and this con-
tains all the spare change he has at

The half-civilized capitalist from
some torrid South American city car

men with the light fingers. Some of
these belts are very expensive.
The Italian of the poorer classes ties
up his little fortune in gayly-colored
handkerchief, secured with many knots,
which he secrets in some mysterious
manner about his clothes. 4 similar
course has charms for the Spaniard.

he could get more cash. As the train pulled
out without him, he came running wildly
after it, but had to give it up.
