He opened q door, and room filled
with writhing flames, dense shadows,

Invest your surplus earnings or your
surplus earnings will involve you. No

influence OF idle money.
All natural human relations are re-

give. But beware of the speculator,
who takes all and gives nothing, de-

He who spends freely every dollar
he earns is a 'rood fellow'-avoid

discharges every sort Of obliga ton with
gladness Of heart and is always laying
by something for emergencies is the
useful man.-Cent Per Cent.
