The Theory, at Least.

Mr. Younghusbend was devoted to
the girl, but he would not have mar
ried on his salary of $40 week if he
had not been thoroughly convinced
that two could live cheaper than one.
1t was a matter of economy TO marry,
he said. So he married The Phila-
delphia Press tells how the theory
worked out.
Mr.. Younghusband's wife was
charming, even intellectual, but at the
end of the first three months they were
heavily in debt, and there was more
billing" than cooling. All their talk
was of retrenchment and economy, but
in practice they went from bad to
worse.
One evening Mr.. Younghusband
came home with a parcel under his
arm, and his step was buoyant, and
there was light in his eyes. His wife
was certain that he had got the in
crease in salary for which they had
been hoping.

pectantly.

YOU NEED MONEY!
When Your Account Is Low Just Draw
ON the Persian Shah.

ON the Persian Shah.
Gust to oblige," a depositor the
cashier Of a bank in a western town
allowed him to overoraw his account
$1,000. A few days later the cashier
learned there was to be an examina
ton of the banks account. He sent at
once for the depositor, told him of the
impending examination, and asked him
to make his account good.
81 can't do it." replied the depositor.
II haven't the money and / can't pos
sibly raise it inside of three weeks.
What can l do about it?''
The cashier was in sore straits. He
did not have money enough of his own
to make good the deficit, and for a
long time he couldn't think of any way
OF bridging the trouble. Suddenly
bright idea dawned on him.
'I'll tell you what wen do he said
to the depositor. you draw a draft
on the shah of Persia for $1,000 and
deposit it in your account. 1t will be
at least six weeks before we'll have
it returned protested. Meanwhile you
can skirmish up the money to make
good the overdraft."
The depositor laughed at the idea,
but made out the draft on the shah
and put 1t in for collection.
"There'll be a hot time in Persia
when the shah gets that" the depositor
said to the cashier, and the cashier
agreed with him.
Within the three weeks the depositor
made some collections through his reg
ular business and Strengthened out his
bank account.
About six weeks after the draft was
made on the shah the cashier received
a check from Teheran for $1,000 from
the equerry of the shah. On the back
of the voucher which accompanied it
and above the Endorsement of the
equerry, this statement was written:
1.-The shah of Persia requests that
hereafter all bills from the United
States of America shall be itemized."

Michigan canal it makes connection with
the Chicago drainage canal, which it fol-
lows to Chicago, and finds its terminus
in Lake Michigan.
At present the government is building
a canal from Chicago to the Mississippi,
but it has only a seven-foot chanrel,
which does not permit navigation of
heavy draft steamers. 1t is known IS
the Illinois and Michigan canal. Work
was started on it in 1890, and still con-

affair before he had consulted his

full" let fall judiciously from time to
time by the sublime cooper, who was
laughing at them in his sleeve. Those
Parisians," he would say to himself. and
cunning smile would steal across his
features.
In fact, martyrdom unknown to the
calendars of commerce was in store for
the creditors. When next they appear in
the course Of this story they will be
found in exactly the same position that
they were in when Grandet had done
with them. Consols went up to lis, old
Grandet sold out. and received from
Paris about 100000 francs in gold,
which went into his wooden kegs to keep
company with the 600 900 francs of inter
est which his investment had brought in.
Des Grassins stayed on in Paris. 1t
was very lucky for his wife that she had
brains enough to carry on the concern at
Saumur in her own name. and could ex-
tricate the remains of her fortune, which
had suffered not a little from N. des
Grassins' extravaganza. But the quasi
widow was in a false position. and the
Cruchotins did all that in them lay to
make matters worse; she had to give up
all hope of a match between her son and
Eugenie Grandet, and married her
daughter very badly. Adolphe des Gras-
Gins went to join his father in Paris, and
there acquired, so it was said, an unen-
viable reputation. The triumph of the
Cruchotins was complete.
