Americans are most liable TO the craze

Their accumulations do not multiply

a larger bank account. Some one

honaire. and every young man who
knows him flatters himself that he
can do the same financial feat A thon-
sand persons have miserahly failed
where one has been successful, but the
fhousand are forgotten and the single
exception is remembered. The Chris

melted the heart that stood out
