One Dollar Saved Represents Ten
Dollars Earned.

The average man does not save to
exceed 10 per cent of his earnings. He
must spend SO in living expenses for
every dollar saved. That being the
case he cannot be too careful about
unnecessary expenses. Very often a
few cents properly invested, like buy
ing seed for his garden, will save sew
eral dollars outlay later on. II is the
same in buying Chamberlain's Collie,

THE THANKSGIVING GAME.
Kansas City Expects Record Breaking
Crowd Thursday.

Kansas City, Nov. 19.-U. s G. Plank
business manager for the Kansas State
university football team, was in the city
yesterday comforting with Manager Chas-
Nichols in regard to the big game Thanks
giving at Sportmans park Mr.. Plank is
well satisfied with the outlook and ne says
that he expects the crowd next Thurs
day to beat the attendance of last year.
Last year the gate receipts exceeded $10,-
600. Mr.. Plank put in the day going over
the grounds with Mr.. Nichols and he said
that he was more than pleased with the
work being done.
Last year we really had but one en-
trance" said Mr. Plank, but this year we
will have at least three This means tha-
there will be no trouble seating the crowd
and there will be entrances on the north
side, while the main entrance will be in
the usual place. It is possible that an en-
trance will also be made on the south
side.
DR.. Hetherington, VINO looks after the
business end of the Missouri team, will
arrive here Sunday and remain until af-
ter the game. So far he has left every
thing to Manager Nichols. Mr.. Plank will
also return here Sunday.
Mr.. Plank decided yesterday that there
would be no room for tally-hos and other
vehicles and consequently none viii be adj
mitted to the grounds. The seats will
completely surround the gridiron and by
this arrangement it IS expected that the
seating capacity viii exceed 1000.
