The Girl, the Man and the
Money
By DOROTHY DIX.

r HAVE letter hat would be fun
ny If it wasn't so pathetic, from
a girl who complains that when
her gentleman friend" comes to
take her out to any place C amuse-
ment he always borrows the price
from her and never pays it back.
She says that she thinks he is no
gentleman.
No one will dispute her opinion
of the grating youth. Most of us,
to quote T r., would describe him
by shorter and uglier word. In
fact, if one should apply all of the
opprobrious epithets in the diction-
airy OF abuse to the creature-it
would be rank fattery to call him
a man-who is mean enough to
sponge on a poor little working girl,
one could scarcely do the subject
justice.
parasite is a contemplate OBJ
jest at best, but the male site
who fastens himself upon the slim
pocketbook of the woman who
earns her own living Is beneath
contempt. He Is the lowest thing
that erawls, and why girl should
permit anything so loathsome to
hang about her is past comprehen-
sion. Every sentiment of self-re-
spect, every intuition of self-pres-
ervation should bid her spurn him
from her presence the cry first
time ne tries to dip his hand into
her purse.
To this girl, and all other work.
ing girls. I say with all the ear
nes.less I can .nmand, never lend
money to q man. Have nothing to
do with a man who lets YOU pay
for his meals, and his drinks. and
his ticket when you go to places Of
amusement together. He is the
cheapest sort of deadbeat, and
means you no good. He is simply
playing you for an easy mark that
he can work by making a little love
to you and flattering you bit.
man never tries to borrow
money of a woman until he has

streak of bad luck. 1t is only
after one becomes notorious as a
borrower who never pays back, and
other men refuse to be held up any
further by him. that he descends to
proving upon women.
Therefore, you may kiss your
money good bye, little sister when
you lend it TO one of this gentry. He
never even intends to pay it back.
If he did, he wouldn't have to Dor
row itof a woman.
Every dollar that working girl
has is stained with her very life
blood. She has paid for every cent
of it with long hours at desk, or
typewriter, or behind the counter,
or the machine in factory. Every
penny she saves out of her meager
wage represents incredible self
denial. If it could speak it would
tell of the anguish of aching back

and fainting body by which it was
earned, of long blocks weary feet
have walked to save car fare. Of
desires for pretty clothes and good
food that have been crucifed, and
the man who would take from her
the few dollars of her little hoard
would steal the coins off his dead
mothers eyes.
No man with one spark of man
hood in him but would rather starve
than take money from working
woman, while as for permitting her
to pay for his amusements, he
would rather go to purgatory than
Coney Island under such condi-
tons.
1t is the working girl and her
problem we are discussing, and this
is a problem she has to meet daily,
for the minute a woman begins to
earn money she is set upon by a
horde of sycophantic men who get
their evil living out of grating upon
women. All of the drunken, trif
ling, no-aceount lazy loafers and
ne'er- do wells, all of the tellers Of
hard luck stories, and all of the
visionary men with dopey schemes
that they never have enough money
of their own to finance themselves,
swarm about her, and it takes grit
and courage and independence to
turn them down and keep pad
lock on her pocketbook.
Yet that is what she must do for
s her own self preservation, and what
makes the situation doubly hard for
a sentimental and unsophisticated
girl to deal with is that the foxy
gentleman who is trying to borrow
her money almost always accom-
panies his touch for q five or ten
spot with ardent love making.
In this way he blinds the girl TO
his real motive, so that she can not
see how mean and selfish and low
he is. or how little worth having IS
the man who even before marriage
Is WlillllS 10 i've SA fiiN 49,
of a woman.
The girl who lends money to
man on the theory that she WI.
thereby bind him to her by ties Of
gratitude and appreciation makes
the mistake of her life. for if IT j.
true that the man who lends money
to his friend loses his money ana
his friend both, it is doubly true OF
the woman who lends money to
man. There is no easier way for
woman to make a man hate hef
than for her to put him under ooh-
cations to her, and esnecially fnan-
cial obligations that shame nm ~
real mems eyes.
For proof of this you have only 70

You Must Work
Out a Schedule.

What he must do is to work out a
schedule that will allow for shelter,
clothing, food and the incidentals.
and still leave a margin to be put
aside for future protection.
The exclamation from a million
throats is: 1t can't be done!
And the reply to that is. it is
being done every day. Those who
succeed in accomplishing this APP
parently impossible thing work
according to a system The name
Of the system is apportionnent.
This is not a hard word with which
to get acquainted.
Apportionment means being boss
of your own treasury. You figure
out just what you can pay for shell
ter, clothing, food, and the little
odds and ends, and you keep on fig
uring at that until you find that
every weeks pay has been so di-
rected that you can meet these ex-
penses and have little left over.
The amount left over may be a
nickel or a dime, or quarter. or
dollar bill. Don't despise any one
of these sums.
You have paid your bills and you
have a margin You have succeeded
in doing this by using your thought
Put the margin in the savings
bank and keep your thought at
work. Thought at work pays big
interest. Its first great dividend
comes to you in the form Of bene-
fits from self-control, or self-gov-
eminent, about which the next ar
ticle treats.

ON
How to Build Fortune---No 2---Work and Desires
By THOMAS TAPER.

quality of money is motion. Its
power to work comes from keep
ing it moving.
So you must certainly spend
the money.
But how?
There are four things to be pur-
chased with money every time you
get your pay envelope. If these
four things always get first con-
sideration, YOU win be started right
toward success In the affairs of
fortune These four things are:
l. Shelter.
2. Clothing.
8. Food.
4. Protection for the future.
We must all have a place to
sleep and & place to go when the
weather is inclement. We must
be clothed. We must eat. We must
be prepared to care for ourselves
in the future when old age limits
our earning capacity. for we need
then as much, or more, than we
need in youth, shelter, clothing and
food.
Nearly every one manages to
get the first three. The vast
majority Of people rarely think of

Clayton Bulwer treaty. When it
does not repeat the words, it is, as I
have said, because of a definite de-
termination to reject the principle.
Moreover, since that time the
United states has acquired the ter
ritory across which the canal is
built, which seems to me to have
considerable bearing upon the sit
uation, and further to strengthen
the claims OF the United States in
regard to the canal"

necessary. however, as the others;
and to be enjoyed in the future
it must be obtained in the present.
You may think the purchase of
these four things makes a severe
strain on small pay envelope. 1t
does. 1t is so severe that only a
thinking man can make a go of
it. And even he can make a go of
Il only by hard thinking.

MO one can build a fortune who
does not work. A man may
have a fortune left to him by
somebody who worked for it, but
that, unfortunately. does not re-
quire the recipient to get to work.
Some men have received a fortune
and have straightway gone to work
to increase it and use it wisely.
Such men are exceptional
When you think it over careful-
~ you will realize that when you
are paid money for your work. YOU
receive it for the strength and
quality of mind and body that you
put into work This means that
strength goes out and money comes
in. This, in turn means that mon
ey is your strength in another
form,
Now, the first thing YOU should
determine to do concerning the
money your strength earns for YOU
is TO respect IT, man who earns
Thirty Dollars by the use of the
best part of his mind and blows
it in foolishly by the use Of the
worst part of his mind, fails to re-
spect the money, ana he likewise
fails to respect himself
The first steps in fortune build
ing, then, are.
l. Earn the money by giving
honest labor fer it,
2. Do not forget that the money
you earn is honest labor in another
formA
Let us suppose you have money
which you have earned, ana that
you have given good value for it.

AN article in The London Times
says a great deal depends upon the
correct Interpretation of the spirit
in which the Hay Pauncefote treaty
was drawn; that is to say. as 10
how far II perpetuated the sense Of
the Clayton Bulwer convention. In
view Of the above facts 1t ought to
be clear that the Hay Pauncefote

they should be. When Paul wrote
this letter to the Romans he had never
been at Rome. He wanted to go there
to meet face to face the old philoso-
ophers, learned as they were, who
were opposing with worldly theories
the teachings of Christ. 1t was by
what seemed a dispensation of provi-
dence that he had his desires graft
fed, that he might tell them boldly
that he was not ashamed of the Cos
pei of Jesus Christ. He had a mes
sage to reveal.
The gospel has but one snecitic pur-
pose and that is salvation Paul was
conscious of the fact that sin ruled
the world and the same conditions ex-
list today. The gospel of Jesus Christ
lifts men up. There is something said
about universal salvation. The speak
er declared that he was a universal
list SO far as believing that every man
can be saved and may be saved If he
desires this great salvation through
the gospel of Jesus Christ,
Referring to the Men and Religion
Forward Movement he ald not see
many Of the membership of this
movement present, and he did not like
to talk about people in their absence.
But it seemed to him that this is a
time for all to be present at these
services if success was to be &C
complished, for prayer is essential tc
salvation The influences of these
prayer services are soothing, elevatine
land uplifting and these are just wha
are needed in any great movement

men to the great Christ plane

incidentally referred to Keolluk's
great water power which he said was
i typical of the power of the gospel O
Jesus Christ, forming a pretty com
parison. The gospel has the power to
drive sin out of every mans life

in letter from Argyle, says: Il was
almost wild with pain in my head,
and other severe pains, due to wom-
anly troubles. Cardui gave me great
relief at once. Further use of Cardui
raised me from my bed of agony.
Cardui saved my life, and l can't be
thankful enough for what it did for
me-" Whether seriously sick. or simp.
ly ailing, take Cardui, the woman's

Why the churches are not more pros
porous is because the church people
are moral towards. These probably
are strong words but he wanted to say
them. He did not care whether they
liked it or not. He didn't expect to
preach over at this church very often
anyway, but Brother Sanders pastor
of this church, used some very strong
language at neighbor church the
previous night and he suspected he
used pretty much the same kind OF
expression on occasions to his own
congregation.
Without faith it is impossible to
please God. How is your faith? ask
4 ed the speaker. How is your faith to
ward your fellow man? How is your
faith toward one another? He die
