Take Care Of Tha Nickels.

Careful saving and careful spend
ing invariably promote success. -
says Marshall Field. at is not
what man earns, but what he
saves, that makes him rich. John
Jacob Astor once said that the
saving of his first thousand dollars
cost him the hardest struggle. AS
rule, people do not know how
to save. The average young man
OF today when he begins to earn is
inclined to habits of extravagancc.
He gets the idea that he must in
dulge in habits corresponding to
those of some other young men,
without regard to what he earns,
and he imagines he can not be
manly without it. The 5, lG or
Is cents q day that he squanders,
while apparently a trife, would,
if saved, in few years amount to
thousands Of dollars, and go far
towards establishing the founda-
tion of his future career. Too
few realize that in order to ac-
quire dollars one must take care
OF the nickels. The you, G man
should begin to save the moment
be begins to earn, be the saving
ever so little, and if he does so the
habit will be of incalculable ben
eft to him in after life"

Though we Anglo Saxons, the

the best blood of Britain has been
given generously to the building
up of the great nation of the West,
there are differences of tempera-
ment, probably induced by eli

family. Thus, while Hooper did
