clerks in Washington toward the end
Of the month. When a clerk sells bis
salary to a ten percenter, he gives the
latter an o y for the entire salary
due him on the following pay day and
receives In exchange 90 per cent Of the
amount The mau who makes the loan
retains the remaining 10 per cent.
whence his name OF ten percenter.
The ten percenter is said to exist
under one name or another In all OF the
great federal department buildings In
Washington. He is invariably shrewd

a tidy little sum. This capital he Is

to 500.

In safety as an individual: he exists
nevertheless under the protecting title
Of beneficial society. These fake so

the mutual beneficiary organizations
which have been established for a
number OF yenrs IN many Of the de
partmcnts. notably the government
printing office. for the purpose of aid
Ing sick or disabled members and their
families and Of buryIng the dead. The
ten percenters society never includes
more than five or six members. They
have their charter and a carefully
drawn constitution and bylaws. f.
Each member contributes certain
amount OF money to the funds of the
concern, and the other employees Of
the office are quietly informed how
they can be accommodated with loan
