THE DEVIL OF DEBT.
Did you ever make friends with a devil?

Did you ever make friends with a devil?
People do.
One Of the most vicious devils of the lot is the
thinking of today-the Devil of Debt.
You may Judge what a character he is from the mes
sage left the other night by respected who jumped
from steamer into Long Island sound and drowned him
SELF first having scrubbed these words 3For 20 years
the devil Of debt has been my heels and have given
up"
We become well acquainted with various devils but
there ism any devil who claim larger circle of really
intimate friends than this
The clerk, he's in debt The bookkeeper, he's in debt
The statesmen, they'r all in debt The elevator man. of
course he is The porter well rather! AS for the supern
tendent he can scarcely remember when he wasn't The
manager you wouldn't think it of him. but he's the worst
of ALL Sure he gets $1,000 year. but he spent this year
salary year before last and you wouldn't envy him much
you could him after the senographer has gone out
trying to satisfy this bank and stavng that off another
60 days, and fighting for another thousand that

about it, too, but don't they have to set decent table and
entertain little goodness knows, and have few respect

please. And people talk. "Did you notice Mrs Jones'?
one woman said only yesterday. Indeed did, shifted

You wouldn't expect the family to endure that sort of
thing? Oh, yes the managers in debt too Even the Of
flee boy would be in debt if anybody would trust him.
Debt is mortgage your salary.
Debt is monument to young mans Weakness a

But you'll be able to hold your head up-and that

CHAPTER XI.
Independence and Indifference.
While Darnell saw little OF so
ciety during the strenuous days OF
the campaign, it was only natural
that he should learn something OF
it's doings. Many of the more in
dependent young men were his
firm friends, and his mother, al
though in no sense a gossip, kent
in touch with and discussed all
social happenings. Thus he was
kept advised of all that, was going
on-especially all that concerned
Miss Hadley
To none Of those that he saw
had she made any comment upon
either him or his campaign. OF
course, he did not really care
certainly not; it was mere whim,
trifling incident of life, that he
should wish to learn her senti-
ments. He was not attempting to
prove anything to her; it was
quite immaterial whether she were
pleased to displease; but-well,
he wished he knew that she was
either one or the other.
1t is strange that young man

CLEVER SCHOOL TEACHER SAID
ALSO TO BE A CLEVER FORCER

LOS ANGELES, Cal, Jan 90
School teacher, mission worker and
friend to homeless Japanese, Miss
Ruby Casselman of this city is
claimed by the police to be one OF
the cleverest forgers they have ever
encountered.
1t is charged that two years ago.
while a member of popular Sun
day school, this % year old girl
forged checks for 1000 or more.
She was arrested but was not con-
victed. The authorities claim that
the influence of prominent men and
women induced the court to place
Miss Casselman on two years pro-
baton.
Five days before the probation
airy period expired she was again
arrested, this time in the First Ma
tional bank, where it is alleged she
tried to pass a forged check.
The young woman refuses to dis
cuss the situation. She is attrac-
tive, bright and well educated she
is a mystery to the men accustomed
to handling criminals of all classes.
The Spokane press. [volume] (Spokane, Wash.) 1902-1939, 1908-01-20

I should be SO anxious to learn the
Views OF a young woman to whom
he is utterly Indifferent, but, In
such circumstances, young men do
not reason. Darnell didn't. He
6imply told himself that he was
Indifferent, and accepted this as
sertion as truthful until he sud-
denly discovered that it was not.
This discovery came through
ALBERT Dale. In spite of the hui
morous view he took of the affair
bat, the beginning, Dale had in
time become something Of an en-
thusiast-at least to the extent Of
championing ,Darnell at the club
and calling on him occasionally to
listen to stories of the campaign.
by the way, remarked Dale
one day, STANLEY Fisher seems to
be most devoted to Miss Hadley
just now. The number of dances
he claimed and got at the last of
the assemblies made the thing
look serious. But, of course, you
weren't there"
There was in this flattering in
ference that IL he had been there
it might have been different, but
arnell made no reply.
Hes a cad" ale went on,
"but, for some reason, he stands
high with old Hadley"
1t takes very little to make a
mistake plain sometimes. These
few words convinced arnell that
he had made a mistake. He did
care. He knew this the moment
Dale had spoken. He knew it be-
cause of his sudden dislike for
Fisher, to whom he had previously
been most Indifferent.
