When a Bargain is Not a Bargain

Bargains and savings may not be
or they may be-very economical.
according to the value of result pro-
duced as compared with the outlay
of time. effort and money. lndivid-
uals. As well as great mercantile and
manufacturing establishment. are
coming to look into these matters a
little more closely than they used.
Then too, there is the effect on
ones regular work.
If Sylvia can get her wonderful
bargain ION the fly" as she clips
through the dry goods store on her
way from lunch, without taking
time from her business or her lunch.
well and good. But if. in order to
attend that particular sale, she has
to hurry her lunch-always a bad
plan-or ask her employer for per-
mission to leave early, she has preju-
diced herself with him-even though
he gives the permission-just about
enough to nullify the value of the
saving. and in either case she has
not gained.
Or. if the thought and effort to do
the work and accomplish the saving
use up enough nerve material so
that she is just a very little nervous
and captious, and disposed to pick
flaws. and feel sights, having for
the time being lost her natural poise
then she is setting herself back in
her business just enough to make
her saving useless.
If one can't do both, better not
save, but be always dependable.
thoughtful, capable and kind. Pro-
motion comes more quickly so,
bringing with it increased salary,
which, after all, is saving in another
form. or economy that is economy.

250JEeetHHiah.

; Tseryttime{I,seeia tall chimney"
said an.E ngliahman, ri am remind
ed Of a~ithiiDingy affair that hap
pened wheniI\wasta lad in Bradford,
England. myl birthplace. A $50
foot chimney had just been COM
pleted, and two brickmasons only
were left on the top.to put,the fin
ishing touches<on,it Bothiof them
were big men. One of them, a fell
low of gigantic strength. went sud
denly insane iistsas thejlast bit of
work was donet on,the chimney, and
his companionllooked on with hor-
ror while the maniac, deliberately
cut away the irope, ladder leading
from the top of the, chimney to the
ground.
"The maniac notsoomr did this
than he turned to- This, companion
and calmly announced that he was
going to throw,him over the side Of
tie chimney to, iground. They
closed, and a terrific %protracted
struggle ensued. The workmen
down below had een the rope lad
der when it struck the ground, and
they knew at onceVthat something
was wrong with thettwo men at the
top.
'They got awaytfrom the chin
ney at a, sufficient distance to see
what was,going on, up at the top,
and they witnessedfthe frightful en-
counter between the twomen. The
maniac frequently by pure strength
got his companion overito the very
edge of the chimney. Every time
he did this the sane man would mus
ter up all of his,force,and push the
mailman back. The hand to hand
battle went ontfor hours, while 9
company of fremen down below
were e~ndesvoring ito shoot a line
over the chimney by means of a
rocket cannon. Finally the sane
man got a certain hold on the1mad-
man and broke the latter's arm.
Then the maniac lay quiet.
"After hours of aiming the fire.
men managed to get a line over the
chimney, which the exhausted brick
mason, almost all out from his ter
rible struggle with the insane man,
grabbed. Then he drew up the
rope ladder, fastened it and came
down to the ground, sinking into a
semicomatose condition from which
he did not emerge for days.
1.-TWO fremen volunteered to go
up the rope ladder after the maniac.
They had nearly reached the top of
the chimney when the insane man
walked over to the edge, looked
around quietly for a minute or so,
paying no attention to the cries of
his ~rescuers, and then dived head
foremost to the ground. He was
probably dead before he struck the
earth, and he was picked up a shape

Not Quite Clear.

Mr.. David could not be called
stupid. He was rather slow, and
added to this deficiency, his tongue
had a way of getting mixed up. Not
every one understood this, and as
a result the poor fellow got into
many complications. One day he
was making a perfunctory call on a
lady with whom he had little in
common. He got up to go.
Owe enjoyed your society very
much, MI. David" said the lady. ~
hope you will come to see me again
SOON"
"1've enjoyed my visit, too" he
said. 81 don't know when I've en-.
joyed one before
"Mr. DavidY'
He thought a minute. ri didn't
mean that" he added. 81 mean,
that I don't know when I've enjoyed
a visit here as I have enjoyed thi.
one."-Youth's Companion.
