Wanted His Dues.

A reservation Indian was disconso-
late over the breaking of his AK handle.
He laid his misfortune before the
farmer of the reservation, who,
through pity, took a new handle from
his private stock and adjusted it to the
AK. The farmer then noticed that the
ak was shockingly dull SO, motioning
the owner to turn the grindstone, he
expended a half hours time in sharp
ening the blade. When the rehabili-
tated Ak was given to the Indian he
was childishly Seeful, but still fingered
about, indicating by his actions that
some feature of the transaction had not
been adjusted.
The farmer was little annoyed and
called TO an Interpreter. ASK the old
fellow what he wants now" he di-
rected.
After an exchange of grunts and ges-
lures the Interpreter announced, HE
wants % cents"
''Iwenty-live cents! What for?"
'For turning the grlndstone "-Har-
per's.

Handwriting.

AS Il rule, clear handwriting is more
common with persons who do not write
for a living than with those who do.
Authors, for example, are creating
something when they write; their mind
is concentrated on this creative work;
their thoughts are generally ahead of
their hand sometimes a whole SEN
tence, and they hurry to keep pace
with them. The result is bad hand
writing, but handwriting with individ-
uality in ii, if not character. There Is
a theory that plain writing is most
easily forged. This is not true OBJ
scure signatures are most easily forged
and the so called freak signatures,
which nobody can read. easiest of all
The best signature and the safest for
q man who signs checks is neither too
prim nor too involved; just plain, ev-
eryday writing done in the easiest
way, according to his temperament
Such n signature expresses as much
character as any handwriting can, but
1t doesn't tell us thing about the
mans moral makeup; not a thing

Miss the Easy Road,

Two young opponents of the strenu-
Gus life on Broadway were sitting in q
hotel lobby the OIL evening discuss
ing their plans + lakmg some big
money" in the fl 7re. One of them
confessed that his salary was "only
$40 week" and he was having hard
time of it in keeping the wolf from the
door. Sitting near them was an old
gentleman who overheard their conver-
sation and was evidently Interested.
You fellows are making the mistake
of your lives" the Old gentleman said
at last You are chasing the will O.
the wisp while you have the means of
wealth within your grasp. Why, I'm
considered pretty well off financially,
as YOU both know, and | never re-
ceived salary of SO week in my
life. But | saved money when | was
your age, and found opportunities for
investment that soon put me out of the
salary class and made me a business
man on my own account. The trouble
with young fellows nowadays is that
they can't see the opportunities that
are given them. They have their eyes
glued to the get-rich-quick idea so tight
ly that they pass by the only sure route
to wealth. New York Globe
