OLD MEN AND JOBS.

Within the past few months thu
writer has been in position to not'
some phases Of the bread and but
ter problem that he never ran
across before. We have seen a
number of old men asking for jobs
because they have to find some
way to make a living. These are
worthy old men, too. They have
been sober, Industrious and frugal,
but through some hard luck or
other, for which they have not
been responsible, they have moth
ing. ahead The ability to earn
a living in the ordinary business of
lie is lessenod until they can
not compete with younger men. In
one case the man had good
position and some accumulation. His
wife was taken i'll. As a result he
was not only compelled to give
up his position, but to spend all
that he had accumulated in travel
ing expenses, nurse, doctor and
hospital bills,
Now he is without means, with
out job and at an age when
none Of the ordinary positions are
open to him.
II Is evident that our present
system needs some amendments
The man who has been a good
citizen, who has done his best, but
who, on account of some misfor-
tune which he could not avoid, is
left without means in his old
age ought not to be compelled toI
go about begging Tor job as a
matter of charity.

THE HOME PURCHASE
AN INVESTMENT.

The more money you send ava.
from home, the poorer your tow
grows. Is there anyone who doubt
1tA
Odt of every purchase made IL
your own town, certain percent
age is set aside to be added tc
your home capital.
When home trade increases, new
stores come, and old ones do a
bigger business. That means more
clerks, larger profits for the en-
ployer The inevitable result is
the building of more houses for the
people to live in That makes moro
taxable property. and besides therd
is more money available for publid
improvements
A purchase at home therefore Isl
in part an Investment, some por1
ton Of the money returning to you
in increased values of real estate
better stores 10 trade in, the build
ing of more civic improvements.
A purchase in a distant city is
equally an investment, but the I'M
vstment is for the benefit of
the people who live in the city
where the purchase is made WhyI
invest your money in a place where
no possibility can ever bring you
any return from It?
