EVERYTHING WHOOPlNG
New Streets Being Opened in
the First Ward.

Force of Men Busy Grading South TX
tension of High Street-Bridge to
Chancery Hin is Certainty--Con-
tract to be Let Very Soon.
Real estate developments South of
the creek towards the Pump Station
are getting very feyerish. New streets
are being graded and still others
are being projected. A new street
has been opened from the Madigan
eight acre lot sold to j r. Taylor
recently to the top of the hill
This morning a representative OF
this paper took II drive through this
addition. Here were streets opened
in every direction. One of them is
being built to connect with the ex.
tension of High street which is ex-
pected to come through before very
long.
Going up the bill from Bridge
street big force of men were at
work. They were under the direc-
ton of Leonard Smith who owns a
great deal of the land along the top
of the hill. This street is being built
wide enough for big traffic and the
grade is being made with reference
to the street cars which are expect
ed to come out High street to this
point.
None of the lots in this addition
are vet placed on the market. Com
ing back toward the Kingwood pike
new houses are constantly encoun-
tered The end of the South Park
addition can be seen with several
new houses being built on it.
The High street crossing is near
the gate of the cemetery. From there
into town arrangements have been
made to open IL A bridge is to con
meet with the South end of High
street at Foundry street.
About everything in connection
with this bridge has been settled
1t is a certainty that it will he built
and that it viii be started before
many weeks being completed this
year. It will be built in substan
tial manner and with reference tt
it's use by the car line.
Nothing official has been given
out about the bridge by the parties
who are TO build it but it may be
stated on the best authority that il
is a go. All of the parties interest
ed have gotten together in an ar
rangement which makes it possible
A look over the sections of tow
beng laid out shows that there il
plenty of room Tor the city to grow

the fact that 1t is growing very fast

THE HABIT OF SAVING.
Every One Should Cultivate food
Opportunities Offered by the Savings
Departments of our Banks.

In July Of last year the individual
deposits in the national banks 10 this
country amounted to SO, 228. 600, 600.
The deposits in the savings banks IN
the country at the same time amount
ed to $2,597, 100000. The savings
banks of the world had IS, 90s, $40, 900,
representing 5000, 900 depositors.
The average individual account for
the world was $l41.24. The average
individual account for the United
States was $3.50. 30. 1t should be said
in time of prosperity, very truly says
the indianapolis News, that no habit
is more valuable to cultivate than the
habit of saving. Prosperity availeth a
man nothing unless with it he has
strength of character to save in pro-
portion. Dickens has character in
one OF his books that every time he
prospers treats himself, so to say: in
dulges himself with some extra ex-
penditure as a reward. That is like
ly to be tendency with too many. II
is the old truism about prosperity be-
ing more difficult to stand than adVer-
slty. No man can prosper that does
not spend less than he makes. He
cannot greatly prosper unless increas-
ingly he spends less proportionately
than he makes. While money max
ing is positive achievement as much
as the creation Of anything is, frugal
itY is something that need wait on nc
gift, but may be practiced by all.
Whether man be rich or poor,
whether he be gifted mentally or emo
tionally or be dull there is for every
one in this life the lesson OF self-de-
NAL to learn, and as this is an exceed.
ingly practical thing, the basis OF
selr-denial might almost be said to
lie in material savings. Where a
man has not the ability to increase
his income he should decrease his out
go. He that does this will soon be.
gin to get a margin. The process oil
saving is slow, but it is sure. 1t can
literally work wonders, and once
started 1t grows like the rolling snow.
ball. The smallness at the begin.
ming should be no disbursement.
There is an opportunity for the man
that can save ten cents week as well
as for the man that can save ten dol.
lars week. The way is long, and To
begin with may be difficult, but per.
sistenee sin it makes it easy. Life
is more matter of habit than of in
tention and the habit of thrift can as
easily be cultivated as the habit Oh
prodigality.
