The money that the wealthy people
spend for luxuries is in your pocket,
in my pocket.
The more flowers they buy the more
money goes to the florist, to the gar
dener, to the farmer, to all labor
ers.
The more silk the rich woman wears
the more money we have. The money
is in the pocket of the saleswoman,
the merchant, the manufacturer, the
silk worm owner.
The more money Rockefeller spends
for his barn the more there is in the
pocket of the mason, the stone cutter,
the carpenter
1t us not mourn when we see that
the millionaire is scattering his dol
lars; some of them are sure to roll
our way if we can handle a saw, u
chisel or hammer.
1t is wicked for the rich man to
hoard his money, not wicked for him
to spend it.
SO let the silken petticoats rustic as
they will; they are rustling for us.
Let the barn stand as firm as it will !;
it stands for what we have earned.
Let the flowers be bought and let
them wither. the money is buying
the delicacies necessary for the sick
child of the laborer. The money is
paying our doctors bills, our street
car fare our grocery bills.

the street.
She was cheaply. scantily clad; there
was bitterness in her face.
She whispered the word as a wo-
man with a rustic of silken skirts
brushed past her.

dreds of women who have hardly
enough clothes to cover them it is
wicked for women to spend so much
money on silk petticoats!"

the beautiful barn owned by John ID.

"What shame to put all that mon

on.

hundreds of dollars spent for flowers
to make beautiful wedding or a re-

1t is not wicked, it is right.
