Do you know that more men every
year. especially in the cities. are dye
ing their hair-the vain men!
But wait.
Many OF these men are using hair
dye not because they are proud, but
because they want to retain their jobs.
1t is a fact.
Many Of the big corporations
throughout the country are drawing
the line of usefulness OF employees at
the age Of forty-fve years-or. IL not
precisely at that age, thereabouts.
Therefore gray haired employees are
viewed with more or less OF suspicion.
And when it becomes necessary to re-
trench on expenses and lay of some
OF the once force the older men are
let out Young fellows are coming on
and must have their promotion.
So when the first streaks of gray
appear in the mustaches Of the older
men they begin to shave clean and
thus save appearances for a time. But
when the gray hairs creep into their
temples there is no way to hide the
evidence Of advancing years except
by dyeing the hair.
To be out Of a job at forty-five
means more. much more, than at twen-
ty-five. To lose ones Job at the latter
age is merely a personal incident; TO
lose it at the former age is a tragedy.
Because
At twenty-five hope springs eternal
and one may adapt himself to a nev
job or a new calling or wait for an
opening. At forty-hve hopes are not
so. strong and ways and habits are
not so easily changed.
Besides
At forty-fve ones expenses are
heavy. If one is family man, there
are children 10 be educated. And II
there are girls it costs a lot Of money
to properly dress them.
Do you wonder the old man consults
his druggist concerning hair dye?
The big corporation does not care
who draws the wages so long as the
work is properly done. The young
fellows in tie Office do not care. They
may be little sorry for the old fellow
but they must get ON, don't you know.
Who cares. except the old man and
his family?

A s25O.OOO SMILE.

Smiling Joe' Barron. aged twelve
years. has made s25OOOO not for him
self, indeed. but for { nsme for sick
and crippled children.
1t was this way:
Some young doctors in New York
city who had seen the suffering and
lack IN the tenement districts. where
tie very poor swelter in summer and
shiyer in winter. bought cottage on
the ocean and started a charity sani-
tarium on a small scale.
Joe Barron was their first patient.
Joe's back was twisted, and his legs
were crooked, and he had tuberculosis
Of the bone-a sad combination Of ills.
But when they came to see him Joe
smiled up into the faces Of the doctors.
and his smile went straight to their
hearts
And so they took Joe out of the hot
and dirty slums, out to their cottage.
which they called "Sea Breeze" And
there they strapped him to a board
and hung him out in the fresh air just
as an Indian mother hangs her pa
poose.
1t hurt him, but Joe smiled
And every few days those doctors
with the strong arms pulled and twist
ed and stretched Joe's muscles so that
the little fellow would sometimes cry
out in pain. but no sooner did they
quit trying to straighten out the kinks
in his deformed body than the smile
reappeared.
It was the smile that would not come
on.
One day, some four years ago. Presi-
dent Roosevelt and his great friend
Jacob Riis went to Sea Breeze Joe
didn't know the stout gentleman who
looked at his twisted shape was the
president. but he smiled the old sweet
smile.
And impulsive Roosevelt said to Riis.
"Can't we do something for this brave
fellow9"
And Riis said. I'm going to take his
picture and tell the people about Joe"
Perhaps you have seen that picture
I'm the magazines and the appeal that
went with it. And the money came
pouring IN from all over the country
In large and small amounts-enough
to build a S250000 hospital.
Joe's smile did il.
Joe's back is all right now. and his
legs are as good rs yours. and his
friends will send him to school, and
he will probably grow up a strong and
useful man.
Certain it Is that If he is given a
fair chance Joe's smile will do the
rest
Moral.--When you are disposed TO
smile and whine about your hard
lines" think of Joe Barrons case and
his bonny smile.
