Penny savers are dollar raiSors.
People who save the pennies
have the dollars.
But to have the dollars Won must
save the pennies, and to save the
pennies YOU must know how to
shop.
Some shoppers are not shoppers.
They are just SpendcrS.
Money comes easy and goes
easier,
They make plenty of money,
vet live from hand to mouth. Some
times the hand does not reach the
mouth.
Their pockets are large, but have
no bottoms. Some times the money
does not reach their pockets at all.

They don't know how to shop.

There is one great remedy FOR
this careful shopping
But careful shopping is 4 prob

her mentality is not quite SO keen

she has plenty to interest her. A man
cannot look about the church and be
interested in John Jones cravat or
William Smiths vest, or Sam Whites
cuff buttons. He doesn't care any
thing about them, but woman will
sit quietly in church, she will hear
what the minister Is saying without
giving much thought to It, but she
will be interested In everything every

IT IS doubtful II one woman to
thousand men go to sleep In church,
and people have long held an entirely
wrong impression Of this. 1t has been
said that the men are bit more
stupid, that they do not pay enough
attention to the sermon, or do not
comprehend 1t sufficiently to retain
their interest. and hence get sleepy.
It has also been said that women are
brighter, quicker to understand and
have more self-control, and SO do not
lose interest and close their eyes In
slumber while the minister Is preach.

But all this is quite wrong. A Ger

does not begin to grasp the purport

POETIC JUSTICE

Little things can be very trying at
times, especially when they happen
to you. Mr.. Fry thought something
like this when one wet morning he
could not find his umbrella. Like
most married men, he believed in the
maxim, when in trouble, blame your
wife" \%.-
81 say, Mary" he shouted, what
on earth has happened to my new
umbrella? brought it home last
night, and now it's gone, and, Of
course, it's raining like mad!"
why, it's hardly raining at ALL"
said Mary. But last night it was
simply pouring when the minister
left, and so lent him your UNI
brella"
What silly thing to do! l shall
never see it again now, so 1 may as
well buy another today"
How can you be so wicked, Per-
cival? AS if the minister would stoop
to stealing your umbrella,
"Stoop to stealing it be hanged!
1 borrowed it from him couple of
months ago."
