Buy Land. Young Mar.

Ownership Of real estate is a certih-
cate Of thrift. The young man who
seeks a position of responsibility can
furnish no better recommendation than
the deed to well chosen city or farm
property paid for out of his earnings
Debt due to spendthrift habits is q
tremendous handicap to the young mar
ricd couple beginning life. Many a
matrimonial ship has been wrecked on
just such a rock. But debt assumed
to purchase real estate is different. In
stead Of causing discouragement. and
impairing a mans ability to succeed in
his life work. it is a powerful incentive
to industry. and almost infallibly adds
thrift and good habits TO the character
The most solid foundation Of financial
independence is the possession of real
property. because as population in
creases its value constantly grows.
The young man who is about to marry
can give his bride no more eloquent
proof of affection than her own home.
II is a fact that the couple who begin
married life under their own roof sell
don end it in the divorce court-Chi-
cagO Journal.

what is perhaps the most remark
able accident that ever occurred was
reported from Germany. A large tour
ing car was travelling at fair speed
along a boulevard lined with trees
Large focks OF sparrows were in the
trees. and several boys were taking
chances of being arrested by the police
by shooting at the birds with sling
shots. One pebble. particularly well
aimed. struck a sparrow on the upper
wing and sent him gliding through the
air directly toward the driver of the
car: the bird struck him full in the
face. and in the next instant things
began to happen. The driver clutched
at his eyes. the car lurched into the
ditch. knocking down a telegraph pole.

side of the ditch. and went full force
into a huge haystack. Despite this wild
swerve. no one was I've scratched ex-
cept the driver. whose eyesight was
damaged by the claws Of the sparrow.
The whole incident had taken far less
time than needed to relate it-Leshe's.
