FACTS ABOUT SAVING MONEY
cane Are Not 40 Extravaeant -
Has Been Supposed.

The size Of q mans income has lit.
tie or nothing to do with the amount
OF money he saves. Some interesting
statistics have recently been gathered
by the United States labor bureau
showing the portion Of the income
saved by men in a variety Of profes.
sions and trades. Incidentally, moro
than one-third Of the men examined
confessed to having saved nothing.
The average saving among the bank.
ers and brokers was found to be sur.
prisingly high. With an average in,
come of about $1,000 a year, the ex.
penditures of q family were found to
be about $4,000, thus leaving practi.
cally 20 per cent to the good. Among
lawyers with an average income Of
$4,000, the average amount saved was
nearly $1,000 a year.
The figures relating to physicians
were particularly surprising. The av.
erage income was $4,000 a year, and
the average savings only $500.
Among railroad officials the proper
tion Of the income saved was under
20 per cent. About the same proper.
ton was found among men employed
IN manufacturing concerns. with in.
comes Of $4,000 year. The class that
saves the least, according to the in.
vestigation, were the clergymen. From
the experience Of several clergymen
with an average income Of $4,000 .
year, 1t was found that less than 10
per cent Of the incomes was saved.
Among professors and teachers, the
proportion saved was considerably
better. averaging over Is per cent.

ONE PHASE OF MARRIED LIFE
essmIne unhappiness Most Probably
Due to Lack Of Something 70
Talk About.

It ID the eternal tete-a-tete of mar
ried life that most critics of that bliss
full condition find fault with. From It
spring boredom and dull. sodden ST.
1ence. assert these cynics. Therefore.
Q hint for escaping this one depress,
ing quality Of marriage should have
our best attention.
To illustrate, you will see It fire.
Quently on the trolley, when man
and his wife are sitting side by side
1t is almost perpetual silence. They
have nothing to say to one another.
Perhaps the wife will emit cheerful
peep, but the husband will respond
with a nod of the head or hesitating
yes or no. It is most always that way.
No common interest observed. In fact,
It looks as II they are mad at one an.
other; as II they we're bored. A young
man or woman looking on the couple
would be apt to say: 20. you married
life"
But they are not mad. Let some
charming lady acquaintance come in
and sit down by the husband and he ID
all smiles and has plenty to say. Then
he 10 a cordial companion. He Is q
changed man. And the same It would
DO with the woman. Now. don't misin.
terpret the scene. When that man and
wife get back home they drop their
trolley manners and act sensibly and
lovingly again. Mad-he would just
- likely be mad at the evening star
or q bush full of roses. But you
wouldn't think it on the trolley.-New

 The helmet crew located the fire on the 200 and Immediately set tc work.
