friend Of the family gave one Of the
kids 4 dollar. OF course It was too
much to let the kid get out and spend
for candy and gum. 20 1t was reli-

some other safe place to be kept-just
for what the deponent saith not. In
about a week the juvenile owner Of
the big round coin remarked at the
breakfast table, Papa, mamma spent
my dollar yesterday" The head Of
the house took the hint and Ashed up
another dollar. which, like Its prede-
cessor. was placed in q good safe place
to keep.
During the next month by 4 careful

just thirteen times. 30 at the end of
the month you win not be surprised to
learn that our friend sent the donor Of
the original dollar this curt note: :.
