Chicken Matched by Rays Of Sun;
 High Temperature in Montgomery

was closed for several days. and no one had entered, during the absence of the family. Upon returning the egg was not touched, and Sunday, as the family sat at dinner, there came & pecking and a cracking sound from the side board that caused the diners to take notice.
 And there was the chicken, making its bow to the world, which tn ough de- priving it of the very natural means of ingress, had forgotten that the friendly old sun still shines and is as hot as ever. hot enough to rival any incubator or the motherly warmth of the most steadfast hen.
 Weather bureau statistics are proof of an excessive heat that has been ex- perienced by Montgomerians during the last few days. On Saturday the mercury sped up to s4 degrees during the day. 92 on Friday, S9 on Thursday, 93 on Wednesday and S9 on Tuesday.
 With an average of s1 degrees for the i've days. there Is little room for wonder at the unsusal stunt pulled of by the orphan chicken.

All the world knows that it is hot these days-hot as the most lurid con- ception of the hereaftar-but perhaps the whole world didn't know that the sun has about driven the incubators out of business. Not only the incuba- tors. but the hens themselves should take the tip of Mrs. J. B. Posey. of &1e Randolph Street. and save their matching energies for a less torrid sea- son.
 Mrs. Posey is the proud, yet startled. possessor of a f1uffy little chicken, which owes It's being to the all-pervad- ing warmth of the sun. The chicken came to being yesterday. in the dining room of the Randolph Street residence, where an egg had lain tor three weeks, undisturbed and untouched.

 Baltimore, Md, Aug. 1s.--The dead body of stephen Dembinski, IS years old, was found In Carol Park near Gwynns Falls this morning over a bullet wound in the breast the shirt had been Burned. apparently by the flash of a pistol
 This led coroner's jury, sitting to- night. to conclude that the youth had committed suicide, though the pistol used could not be found and there was no money on the body. whereas Dem binski is known to have had about $20 when last seen alive.

 The most crowded block in New York had density in 1901 of slightly un- der 400. In Chicago two blocks are reported as containing 200 inhabitants.

The More You Lay Away the
First Year, the Less You
Have To Later On.

$3.50 a week, while you have $3.50 TO
spend.
At the end of you tenth year you
have $40, 900, which is earning you $500
a year and which may even bring you
$500 or 500 a year If you invest it well.
If you were only 80 years of age when
you began saving you are still too
young to retire IN $50 a month, but now
you can spend all that you earn, and at
the end of another ten years, if you do
not gather the honey which your S10,-
600 is making for you. you will be worth
a little over 1900. which at 6 peer
cent will bring you an income of $S5 a
month for the rest of your life.
A modification of the above scheme
can be made to work to the profit of
any .wage-earner, no matter what his
weekly earnings may be, granting. of
course, that they are sufficient to live
upon comfortably. For instance, If the
man who earns SIS a week could save
81 a week for fourteen years, he would
have acquired a little fortune of S., 096,
This task of saving 81 a week out of
SIS a week for 72S weeks seems stupen-
dous at first, but when you figure il
out carefully you will see that it is not
SO difficult after all. In the first place,
YOU would have to a " 81 a week only
for the first year, just as the man who
was working for 10000 had to- save
81, 900 for the first yea only. At the
end of the first year you would have
1854. By the end of the second year
this would nave earned you $500 at 5
Per cent, SO that this year you would
need to save only $345.S 0 instead of
1864, or $685. a week. During the third
year you would have 1928 working for
you, which at 5 per cent. would earn
$500, leaving you $3.50 to save each
week that year. Figuring in this way,
in the beginning of your sixth year
you would have to lay aside only $3.50
weekly; at the beginning of your ninth,
$4.20, and at the beginning of your
twelfth, only 1915. Yet at the end of
your fourteenth ear o would have
saved over 5000. which, properly en-
ployed, would mean a great deal to
you in the years to come.

Make Sacrifices In Your Youth and
Your Old Age Viii BE Comfortable

upon which to live during that time.
Perhaps you will have to move out OF
your present home and rent one that Is
cheaper. For a time, says the Book
keeper, it will also be necessary for You
to contract fewer tailoring bills. and in
all probability you will get your wife
to aid you in economizing; but o
must save 81 1000 during that year and
you will find that you can do it.
In the second year our load will be-
come lighter, and then you will see why
it was necessary for you to save $1,000
during the first year. The 1000 you
can easily place out at ) per cent IN
terest, and at The end of the second
year it will have earned you $50. so
during this second year you shave to
save only $3.50. In other words, you
have 81 a week more to spend on the
comforts of life during the second year
than the first. In this way your load
continues to get lighter and lighter,
You begin your third year with $1,000
out at interest. and during this year
need save only 5000, which leaves you 81
a week more to spend than during the
first year, n so it goes, until at the
end of your fifth ear you are saving
only $3.50 a year, or less than one
half of your 81, $50 salary. Each year
you have more to spend. At the end Of
your eighth yea you are saving just
