Dad Cuts Some Ice

We happened in a home the other night and over the door saw the legend worked in letters of red, "What is the home without mother?" Across the room was another brief, "God bless our dad" He gets up early, lights the fire, boils an egg, grasps his dinner pail and wipes of the dew of the lawn with his boots while many mother is sleeping. He makes the weekly hand out for the butcher, the grocer, the milk man and the baker, and his little pile is badly worn before he has been home all hour. He stands of the bailif and keeps the rent paid up. Ifthere is a noise in the night, dad is kicked iu the back and made to go down stairs and kill him. Mother darus the socks, but dad bought them in the first place, and needles and yarn afterwards. Mother does up the fruit; well, dad bought it all, and the jars and the sugar cost like the mis- chief. Dad buys chickens for Sunday dinner, carves them himself and draws the neck from the ruins after every. body else is served. "What is home without a mother?" Yes, that is all right; but what is home without a father? Dad, here's to you. If it wasn't for you we wouldn't be here. You've got your faults-you may have lots of 'em-but you are all right and we'll miss you when you're gone.-Ex.

Fairbanks has given up the idea of postal savings bank. The Times says that the camp is not yet place of small savings That may mean that the camp is not place for savings of any Kind. Ordinarily those who ac. eumulate wealth save first in small amounts. There is an old saying that still has right to be recognized, which runs, Take care of the pennies and the dollars will take care of them selves" Douglas is not like Fairbanks. There are lots of people here who are saving few dollars month. Some have bought land and are slowly Eay- ing for it.; others have money in the bank. If ostal savings bank could be opened in Douglas, thousands of dollars would be deposited there in small amounts. Itwould benefit many, for then they would acquire the habit of saving. Soon they would be able 10 maintain an account in one of the large banks. A man with money iu the bank is never a hobo, and seldom an idler. He feels his importance as a man of affairs, and his conduct is gov erned by steadier hand and cooler head. Douglas has not given up the idea of a postal savings bank, for noth- ing would be better for the interests of the people and the town.
