When Actor Made an Enemy.

Willie Edouin once told of an actor in a certain company who one day ln' cautiously disclosed the secret that nc was actually saving g week. The rest of the company were d'lmfounded at it. Then they enjoyed the joke" immensely. He was chaffed unmerci fully. There was only one person present who did not join i'll the fun against him. He remained silent ana when the money saver left he took an opportunity of slipping out after him and congratulated him on his common sense in providing for rainy day. Then he informed him that he himself had often thought of doing the same thine but circumstances had always been against him, and just then nc was at his wits ends. Would the saver mind lending him, say, ten spot till Sunday? He did not get It and became from that time one of the
 most bitter ridiculers of saving as tending to make a man think of no one but himself. It really requires courage in many circles to own to ones qualities.

ADVERTISING IN SEPTEMBER.

September is a specially favorable month for the advertiser for the req son that the change of seasons makes a ready market for goods. Summers wear and tear has worn Out clothing and house furnishings. The public is ready to buy and must have new goods. people to buy ahead of their needs, by offering goods at sacrifice prices. The necessities of the season make people ready to buy. Wherever this newspaper circulates, the home keeper looks through it's advertising columns eagerly to see who is making the best bid for trade.
 Advertising ought to be very pro- fitable now, because goods sold now bring a fair profit, for it is a season when the public expects to pay a fair :.rice. If merchant is not able to sell promptly the fall stock he has laid in, it sells later at loss. A fair amount of advertising, propor- toned to the stock as a necessary part of selling cost. turns loss into a profit, and liability into an asset.

Actors Don't Use WaIkinq Stlcks.

There is one profession that has al. ways refrained from carrying walk. ing stick The actor knows we'll that on the stage he must walk without extraneous support, and he knows that the mere hint of walking stick in his hand as he walks the streets is a temptation to lean this way or that. Actors, even when out of a job, never lean on stick. They know that their balanced walk is their asset. If the whole of society recurs to walking sticks the actors will refrain.

BUY A BALE.

isIna twelve of the cotton, growing states there, are more than twenty four and-a-half million people It is generally accepted that if a way can be found to take up and hold 3,o0o,ooO bales of the present years cotton crop and secure the cooper ation of farmers in planting 90 per cent less cotton and more grain and other crops next year the cotton situation will be cleared.
 What better way than the buy a bale" movement? This plan. which is for every individual in the South to buy from the farmer direct one bale at 10 cents per pound and hold it for year. provides immediate re- lief. No outside money is required; no more money is required. There need be no imitation of currency, yet. at the same time, no money will be taken out of the country.
 That this plan can be made a suc- cess becomes evident with little consideration. In fact, the more the plan is considered the better it ap- pears; the more it's advantages are appreciated.
 The money will not be taken from circulation. By the plan the 4,0OO,- 900 bales will be so distributed that even the warehousing problem is solved, and the wide distribution in sures that the cotton will not be thrown on the market. There are thousands of people with small say ings who would invest in at least one bale, thus bringing into circula. tion hundreds of thousands now hoarded. Another thing, with eacf influential person interested urging the plan among his friends, people 1T tine East, North and West would bu, bale. maybe two or more. Ther, is hardly a man interested in the cot ton business who does not numbe among his friends dozens of peopl in the East, North or West wh would take bale or two at his sol iciation.
 The plan is the most feasible, tn most practical yet offered It pro vides means for immediate relic for certain aid to the farmer and a the same time offers small investor sure. big return on their money.
 If one person out of every eigh ot the twenty-four and-a-half in tn twelve cotton growing states wi tuy bale, more than 3,OOO,OOO bals Will thus be taken off the marke Even if the percentage of purchaser 's less, the number of those in tn Ncrth, East and West who will il vest will insure the surplus beip taken up.

Russo, Hungarian society dance, River

trot, derniere tango, arabesque schot-
tische, syncOpated waltz, maxine, waltz

as easily with the girl from Duluth as
with the Back Bay belle.
The dancing masters purpose TO go
still further, and cooperate so that the
girl from Madison av. can dance with
the man from the Washington Heights
academy. Even the local dancing mas
tiers have agreed to forget their rival
ries and hereafter all teach the same
steps.
A new league will be formed this
afternoon, and its motto will be peace.
Louis II. Chalif is responsible for the
new association, and the first meeting
will be held at his studio, : West 42d
