Baggage Porter's Tips Make Fortune

u ANSAS CITY, MO.-0ne OF the
n men who have done well In this
city during the last ten years Is Gus
Miller, head porter Of the Baltimore
hotel, who has gathered q fortune OF
$780, 900 during that time, most OF It
In tips of a quarter from the travelling
men who want their baggage handled
| quickly.
Out In the Roanoke district he has
a S12, 600 home. He also owns a lodg-
Ing house from which he received $3.50
a month and other realty that pro
duces a comfortable revenue
Meanwhile his daily costume during
the business hours is the usual blue
flannel blouse jumpers and his bust
ness is transacted from the same littls
desk In the baggage DON OF the no
tel surrounded by big trunks, little
trunks, suit cases and grips.
There are a dozen men working un

are a few Of them that get away In
transit from the free hand of the trav-
cling public to the desk Of the head
porter. The tips average $500 a month
and Miller has accumulated $50 in a
single busy day.
Every year Miller takes a vacation
| and spends three or four weeks travel
ing to the big cities and resort hotels
| On these trips he distributes quarters
| like a farmer sowing oats.
Sometimes the service Is very bad
that I get while ! am travelling" says
Miller, "but I dig up a quarter any
way, figuring that / am only putting !
back where I get It"

VOTERS, BEWAREl

LICCliUll 10 Jul CIE WIEN C1l'
1t is time You began to make
UP your mind how you will
vote. Today the sample ballots
are In your hands and you
can arrange your ticket
ready to be copied off ON the
official ballot In the polling
booth.
When you mark your sample
ballet look first for the assem-
bly, candidates. You will find
I1fne Of them and you are to
vote for only three. Be sure
you put yonr *" opposite
these three names:
August @. Streitwolf.
Jacob B. Joselson.
John p. Kirkpatrick.
These three men are pledg-
ea to uphold Woodrow Viii
son In his battle against the
bosses and political machines,
These men are not liked by
the bosses and machines and
1t will require every honest
vote in this county that can be
mustered to elect them.
The three Republican candi-
dates for assembly are en-
dorsed by the aDory" Strong
machine and their election
would mean restoring
aDory' Strong to power IL
the State legislature.
AS Woodrow Wilson has
well said, political bosses
work together and use THEN
machines for a common cause
The bosses and machines hate
Wilson and will stoop to any
tactics to defeat him. This
means that every honest voter
must be on the alert.
Actions speak louder thar
words. We have heard {
great many men profess to b.
friendly to the governor who
under the surface, are work
ing tooth and nail to defea'
him. You cannot always
trust outward appearances il
politics.
Therefore, to be absolutely
sure that your vote will counf
for the man who is YOU
friend put your "X' oppo
site the names Of August G
Streitwolf, Jacob B. Joselson
and John p. Kirkpatrick. TIL,
election Of these three men tt
the assembly means q contin
nation OF the Wilson policiei
aud the defeat Of the intention
OF rne bosses to put "Dory'
Strong back into control.
