How Mach are You Worth

A young man who was very mnch In
love with girl whose PEOPLE were am
bilious that she should marry rich. felt
that his case was hopeless as his bank
| account was very small. One day an old
gentleman who liked the young fellow
offered him $40, 600 for one of bis legs
Il am poor enough" he replied, but
can't afford to sell it for that Later
on the old gentleman casually remarked
to the father of the girl that Young
Blank must be getting along pretty well
| as he had refused $40, 900 for a piece of
| property which ne had made him. The
ruse worked and the young man soon
had wife whom he would not have
| sold for 81, 900, 600
So estimated along this line, what
| are you WORTH 1t Ii safe to say that
you would not let one Of your arms or
| legs go for $40, 000 and that means an
| aggregate of $40, 900. You would not
part with an eye for 5000. nor with
both for 800 900. 1t would cost good
| sum TO buy the right TO cut off either of
your ears, and your teeth. if sound, are
worth at minimum $500 apiece; and
you would not let the whole 80 90 if
good and strong for much higher rate.
The government puts a property rating
ers bodies and upon their HhysicaI
health. 1t is not easy to say Just what
it is bIt TIE loss of an arm calls for an
income equal to about the interest on
80, 900; the loss of both arms would be
accounted as deserving pay worth sew
eral times that amount. and the loss of
both eyes is counted of sufficient impor-
tance TO give man life income which
would support him and give him an at
te1dant. tits evident then that a youny
mac who is sound in head, limb and
health, has the equivalent of a hand
some money capital; in fact, who wouId
change places If so equipped, with a
millionaire who had lost both ewes or
both arns2 1t may be rather unusual
way of looking at the matter, but whe1
you are bemoaning the fact, Young
man, that You have q poor start in the
world, Just consider for a moment and
see if you have not really splendid.
good start.-Ex
