Savings for Children.
Many parents wisely undertake the
direction Of the savings habits Of their
children. "One feature of the saw
ings business of Council Bluffs of re-.
cent years has been the establish
ment of savings accounts for children
at the time Of their birth," says a To-
cal banker. when tine child becomes

aged to add to it. know of several
cases in which the accounts of chill

start them in business / have been
watching the children for years IN
their savings habits, and 1 am firmly
convinced that tine establishment OF
such a habit in youth very often
makes all the difference between life
success and life failure. In our bank
we now carry the accounts of nearly
200 children, and it is one Of the
most interesting things In my work to
watch their growing interest in their
accounts as they gradually increase"
Developing the Habit.
The development Of the habit Of
saving among wage earners is re-
garded as sociological as we'll as a
! financial problem, The attention Of
many scientists is being directed to
the matter of encouraging saving
among the wage and salary earners.
| The unsaving person is likely to be-
! come a burden to himself and the
public. The saving person, by system
attic attention to the matter, sacrifices
! little or nothing in the matter Of per-
sonal deprivation, and he is assured
Of independence. Accounts, by ac-
cumulating interest, grow with as
tonishing rapidly, and the original
nest egg in few years grows to a
sum which is the foundation for indie.

is certain that he will he desperately

The growth Of the savings habit
among the wage and salary earners
of Council Bluffs during the past few
years has been remarkable. There is
one case in which railroad engineer
put away in the savings bank the sum
of SIS per month for twenty con-
sececutive months. He withdrew the
sum, more than $1,000, with which to

fessor Russell made two attempts in 1890 and
1891, and in the latter effort failed by a very
small margin. The honor of conquering this giant
of the north was reserved for the duke of the
Abruzzi, who solved this stubborn problem of
geology in 1897, while he was making one of his
voyages in search of the farthest north.
We will leave the great peaks Of Alaska and
consider the mountains of the Pacific slope in the
United States proper. Mounts Whitney, Shasta,
Hood and Rainier early caught the eye OF the
aipinists OF our country, and the account or the
climbs of Clarence King in California is a most
interesting and well-written story of the first geo.
logical exploration of the Sierras. Sierra is the
Spanish word that signifies a mountain range;
it also means saw in the Castilian tongue, and
was applied to certain geological formations be-
cause OF the fancied resemblance of their outlines
TO that of this carpenters tool.
In the Sierra Nevada mountains the most
prominent peak is Mount Tyndall, named In honor
of the famous English scientist. This peak Is
especially notable as being the object of one OF
the most remarkable climbs In the history OF
mountaineering, when it was assembled by Clar-
ence King. He was at that time a member OF
the California state geological survey and had
been sent out with others by Prof. Josiah Dwight
Whitney to make geological investigations.
This climb was not as remarkable in point Of
altitude (for the mountain is but 1896 feet In
height) as In the matter Of difficulties overcome
and because Of the curious aids used, a lasso and
a bowie knife. which are probably unique In the
annals Of alpinism.
There are higher SUBMITS than Tyndall in The
western states. Mount Whitney. named in honor
Z Prof. J.. d. Whitney, is perhaps the highest
,eak in the United States proper. being 14,502
feet above the level of the sea. This height was
dominated by Bengale. Lucas and Johnson in
!. 1879. Mount Shasta, It's name being derived
from the Indian tribe Saste or Shastika, with its
snow and silver crown shining In the clouds,
is perhaps one OF the most beautiful peaks Of
\ our country.
In Mexico, a land that might be called the
mother OF volcanoes. we find three majestic
mountains of interest, both because Of altitude
and history. Orixaba, of almost perfect geometric
form. known to the Indians as "Citlaltepetl"
eMountain Of the Starr, rises over $4,000 feet
4 beautiful lime-white cone.
The honor Of being the first up this glorious
peok belongs to an American. William r. Rey-
holds. second lieutenant OF engineers, who was
attached to SCOTS army in 184S. One Maynards
accompanied him. and the party Is supposed to
have included several soldiers.

writings Of the early explorers. MacKenzie's

Mckinley, the highest peak OF the range of the

ers, although in favorable weather it can be seen

Another shortage has bobbed up in the
country. It's a shortage in farmers wives.
Without waiting for any outside assist
ance, farmers who are affected by this
situation are casting about for relief, and
the latest effort in this line is an appeal
to the humane societies in the cities. The
Minneapolis Humane society recently has
received several letters from farmers seek
ing wives. One of the most remarkable
OF these missives comes from a young man
in Wisconsin, who declares he owns a 16o-
acre farm but has been unable to secure a
suitable wife. And of course q farm 10 not

club haunting bachelor, who is content with his bill
lizards and bridge, and has no inclination toward mar
riage.
Nevertheless, the fact remains that when a man
truly is in love, still more when passion sezes him in
its grip, the question which exercises him is not
whether he shall marry Her, but whether She will
marry him. Then it is, for her sake, that he should
weigh the pros and cons and remember that it is the
part of true love to shield the beloved from privation.

Delays
Marriage
Young Man of
Present Day
Lacks Courage
BY HELEN

GENERALLY is agreed that young men nowadays show
much less disposition to marry, above all to marry young, than
was manifested by their fathers and grandfathers. Judging
by observation, which is less misleading than statistics, young
men, as a rule, do not tumble ~headlong into matrimony in the
happy-goIucky, cheerful, not to say reckless fashion which was
comparatively common fifty or a hundred years ago.
Different times, different manners y the changed condi-
lions of social life have much to do with this change of heart,

longer to screw his courage to the sticking point than it took his father SO
to do. and there is good reason to regard such hesitation merely as pu-
dence upon his part.
In these degenerate days things sadly are altered and he who would
marrya at twenty-five either must have a comfortable and assured income
or be possessed of a sublime belief in himself and his bride-eIect. He
must be ready to forego most Of the pleasures and luxuries which custom
and popular habit have converted into almost necessities, and, alas, he
will discover that the young wife of the present day expects much more
and performs far less than did her mother thirty years or SO ago.
She by no means will be content to sit at home evenings and darn
stockings while her husband goes to the club, or, if he be the exemplary
man his father was, stays at home also and reads aloud from some improv-
ing book.
1t is because of all these things that the man of today drifts past the
