Whin man begins maxim money in his
youth at anything but games Nv chances
he niver can become gin'rous late i'm life.
He may make z bluff at it. Some men are
gln'rous with crutch. Some men get the
use of their curiosity back suddenly whin
they ARE In danger. Whin Clancy the
miser, was caught in fire in tn Halsted-
sthreet Palace Hotel he howled firm a win
dow: I'll give twinty dollars to annywan
that'n take me down.. Capn Minehan put
up laddher an climbed TO him an carrid
him 10 the sthreet. Half way down tn
laddher tn brave rayscooer was seen TO be
chokin his helpless burdhen. We discov-
cred AFTERWARDS that Clancy had tried to
begin negotiations to raydooce tn reward
to five dollars. His gin rosity had become
suddenly parlyzed again.
So If ye'd stay gin'rous TO tn end niver
