HOW scHEMERs WORK.
Cooperative Plans Used to Get Dollars
from the People of the Country.

Financiering or promoting has be-
science has taken the broad name Of
system" and to system" is attrib-
uted Machiavellism that would make
Insignificant the chicanery of the
noted Italian diplomat. At present the
nation is treated to Illustrations of the
methods of the advocates of System"
through the magazine articles, and the
disclosures made of the transactions
of many big concerns which have been
investigated by the courts.
When simmered down, it will be
seen that it is by use of money con.
tributed by the masses of people, and
placed in the control of the few that
the masters of finance are enabled to
rob and build up at will, give and
take, and let the people go to the bow
vows.
It is not the intention herein to deal
particularly with the gigantic institu.
tions, but to show how the principles
employed by them are also brought
into use by promoters OF schemes Of
lesser degree. And here an anomaly
presents itself, plainly showing how
short-sighted the masses of people are.
the small-caliber schemers who apply
system" use as their main props the
cry of trust" and robbers" Well
they know the cupidity of the masses,
and by presenting what appears a
plausible scheme of cooperation get
from out the pockets of the people
money with which to carry on bust
ness. This plan of working is generally
stock-selling scheme, membership
plan with promise of selling goods at
wholesale prices, and the paying of
large dividends. A number of such
concerns have lately come into exist
ence. Some of them have such mann.
moth things in view that if their plans
could be successfully carried out, it
would be the building up of greater
monopolies than those that they hold
up before the people as justification
Of their own existence.
Do not be deceived by the represen.
tations made by alleged cooperators.
A close investigation will show that
instead of a purely cooperative plan,
it is scheme simply with the object
of getting from the people money with
which to carry on business for the
personal gain of few Don't invest
money in any alleged cooperative
store or concern located in the large
cities, and of which you know nothing
other than the representations made
by their promoters. Remember that
| it is poor scheme that does not carry
with all appearances of soundness, fol
this is essential to the success of It.

lightness any longer, Hunter sudden
ly sprang up, and crossing the room
to where Doris was sitting, he bent
over her, saying, earnestly and ten
Derby: Doris, darling, why do we
waste our precious time in this fool
ish chatter? Can you not seen how
stong is the love / bear you?-a love
that for three years has kept me faith
full to the memory of your sweet face.
With outstretched hands, as though
to ward off blow, Doris rose slowly
from her chair, and turning, confront
ed him with face as cold and pale as
marble, while such look of horror
crept into her eyes as one seldom
sees.
"Mr. Hunter, have you completely
lost all sense of honor? What manner
of man are you that you dare to come
here into the sacred privacy OF the
home that has sheltered me. and
taunt me with the miserable weakness
of nv girlhood, when, innocent and
ignorant of the worlds ways, you tried
to win the love of my pure heart.
| Leave me, sir, and go back to the wife
Won have so cruelty wronged."
Almost stunned by the shower OF
angry words, Hunter stood gazing in
| pale wonder at the passionate woman
before him; then, as her last words
fell on his ear, sudden light broke
| over his face, and springing forward,
he grasped her hands in strong
clasp. and in spite of her efforts held
| them.
! Doris. Doris, do not send me from
you till you hear the truth. Did you
not know that | was free man? that
before God l have perfect right to love
YOU? that two years ago my wife died?
| have waited humbly and patiently
for this hour. Oh, my beloved, do not
! tell me that it is all in vain!"
Poor Doris! Over her pale face
there stole flush like sunrise on the
snow. while her rigid form, melting
into curves of tender Womanliness,
swayed gently toward him, as with a
+! smothered sob she sank down at his
| feet.
Lifting her up into his arms he held
her close, and looking down into her
shrinking eyes, he whispered: Do
| you forgive me now, Doris?"
"As I hope to be forgiven" she an
swered, gravely. Then the past, with
all its mistakes, its disappointments
and its waiting, is forgotten in the
| aweetness of the present 10y.

The Editors Hiatus.

The editor of the Globe has
many weaknesses, but the most
conspicuous is that he cannot re-
member names. Today a man
from west of town paid the ed
itor an amount on subscription
but did not give his name, says
Atchison Globe. The editor
knew the man SO well that he
was ashamed to ask it, so he de-
termined to sneak back into the
store after the departure of the
man and learn his name from
the clerks. But the clerks didn't
know it so he spent most of the
day trying to find out the mans
name in order that the subscrip-
ton be properly credited. At
this writing, 3 p. m. the name IS
still unknown That's the reason
the editor OF the Globe doesn't
amount to anything. He spends
most of his time looking up the
names of men who have paid
him money on subscription.
