itself. and for itself alone, but
it stands for many things that
all healthy people prize. It
means protection, for ones
family against the hardship Of
proverty and the degradation
of dependence; it opens many
doors of happiness and self
culture; it makes possible
many forms of unselfishness
and helpfulness toward other
people and struggling causes.
Three things seem to make
for responsible citizenship and
social well beings. they are-to
own ones own home, to carry
adequate life insurance and to
have a little capital that can be
used either to weather a period
of illness, to educate ones
children or to be invested in
business-ln a safe but ag gres-
sive way.
The railroad authorities esti-
mate that there are 43O, 600
tramps in America. These are
invariably men over 35 years
of age. In nearly every in
stance investigation has shown
that they started out as youths
or young men who drank up
their money az fast as they
earned it. They die in the
poor house or the Jail. They
are all potential or actual
criminals and they represent
an economical loss to the coun-
try that runs up into many
millions of dollars a year. A
savings account while in their
teens would have kept the
majority of them out of vaga-
bondage. Thrift, therefore, is
a personal virture and a civic
duty.

THRIFT

prosiac and so simple a virtue
that in these days of show and
dash it is at a discount, says the
Scranton Truth. Advice is
said to be the only vice that
does not cling to the young
men of this age, but neverthe-
less the people who wish they
had taken it earlier in life still
offer it with hope that here and
there someone may be benefit
ed.
In 1875 Samuel Smiles wrote
a book called Thrift which
started thousands of young
men on the way to fortune.
We wish it might be read now
by every one between Is and
Is. Nearly all of the wealthy
men of the world acknowledge
that the hardest part of their
fight was in accommodating the
first $1,000.
Yet the task is not really
hard. If a man puts a dollar a
day in a bank paying 3 per
cent interest. compounded
semi-annually, he will save
$685. IS at the end of five
years, 81. 1888. Is at the close of
ten years and So, 100. 10 at the
end of fifteen years. Or. if a
Young man deposits $40 a
month in an institution paying
3 per cent, compounded semi
annually, in just over seven
years he will have his 81, 600 to
use as capital. There are
scores and hundreds in this
city who could get this fnan-
cial start without any hard
ship if they would. practice a
little thrift.
We have before us the story
of a family servant in Balti-
more who came from Germany
twenty-seven years ago and is
now returning to the father
land with nearly SIC, 600, every
dollar of which was accumulat-
by steady saving, augmented
by the interest paid by the
bank. She dressed we'll, spent
enough on pleasure to give
health and happiness. and is
now in a position of independ-
ence for the rest of her life.
There is nothing mar velous
or exciting about such a plan,
but. there is the certain salts
faction that one Will not be-
come an object of charity when
the time arrives that marks.
the end of earning capacity.
Or, in the ase of a young man
there comes a point, usually in
the Sos. when the money can
be invested in a business
where, coupled with alertness
and energy, it may be the
foundation upon which an am
pie fortune can be built.
There il nothing sordid
either in preaching or practic-
ing such a doctrine. Wealth
