INSTANCE OF SCOTCH THRIFT
Railroad Clerk, Instead of Being Re warded fer Returning Lost Purse,
 Is Asked for Interest.

There was no doubt about the fact that Jack MacFaddy was a Scotsman. Last year. when journeying to the country on an important errand, he left his purse, containing nearly $500 in gold and silver, at the railway sta tion from which he started.
 He telegraphed the fact on his ar rival and the purse was kept till his return month later.
 It was young clerk who handed Jockie Mac F his wee purse with the "spondies" as he set foot out of the train, and certain wild hopes were making that young mans heart beat a trifie unevenly.
 But our canny Scot counted his money unheeding. and when he'd fin ished he looked up long and suspi- ciously at the young man.
 Isn't 1t right, sir" stammered the latter, in bewilderment
 "Richt-richt' It's richt enough. but where's the interest mon?" was MacFaddy's stern retort.

The increased smoking among
young boys going to the public
schools throughout the state has
aroused in many cities the parents
to do something in regard to stop
ping this practice. In Mason City a
number of tobacco dealers have
been hailed into court and paid fines
for the illegal selling of tobacco to
minors and the matter is being TAX
en- up in other places. Even in
Webster City it is no uncommon
thing to see boys ranging from
twelve upwards going home from
school with pipes and cigarets in
their mouths. Whether young boys
can buy tobacco themselves in Web
ster City is not known, but in case
they can, the authorities should
stop it and parents should be will
ling and do all they can to help
them.
