Of Course-WhY Not2

"Will good times ever return ?'' in- quired pessimist in speculating on his Christmas expenditures.
 Of course they will Why not?
 Here's the why of the will:
 1. There is just as much money in the country now as there ever was.
 3. The farmers have just harvested one of the biggest crops in history and are selling at good prices.
 3. Federal reserve banks have been opened and billions of dollars of new money will be placed at the disposal if the banks of the country.
 4. The banks Tn turn will have plenty of money to loan to big manu- featuring and other industries for operating capital.
 5. These concerns in turn will start the wheels of commerce to revolving and millions of unemployed men and women will return to work.
 6. Foreign governments are placing heavy orders for all kinds of supplies needed in prosecuting their war. '. Other orders for American made goods are pouring in from all parts of the world.
 8. The financial situation has clari- lied, banks are opening up their vaults, and great manufacturing industries are preparing to open again on an ex- tensive scale, many of them even now calling in employees who were laid off many weeks ago.
 Yes, you can dig down and spend that Christmas money without any fear of where the next dollar is coming from.
 It is on the way-and hitting the high places.

A Waiter In Parliament.

The old fashioned English waiter. particularly the club waiter. was often held i'll high esteem and admitted to terms of intimacy by those to whom he ministered. Often he was a sports man. as in the case of the head waiter at Long's in the old days. to whom ire quenters were accustomed to look for sure tip. Of an earlier generation was Macreath. a waiter at Whites, who used to act as banker to the young bloods who came there to gamble away their patrimonies. On one occa. sion Macreath lent Lord Orford f4O0O. and his lordship. not finding it conven- ient to make repayment in coin. got him elected a member of parliament instead.-London Graphic.

Curiosity.

A fire stirs up Il neighborhood con- siderably; an ambulance stopping at one of the homes in the block brings most of the women to their front win dows; q wedding keeps the interest ot all at fever pitch until after the last old shoe has been thrown, but let the man of the family that has recently moved into the vicinity be seen about the house after 10 o'clock in the morn ing two or three days in succession, and curiosity rages. Once it is discovered that he doesn't go down town to work at the time other men do. it is a safe bet, when two or more women are seen together. they are making guesses on the newcomers occupation.-Detroit Free Press.
