HOW ONE MAN GOT HIS START
Ambition to Be Author Not Successful,
But 1t Served Good Purpose
in the End.

Il got my start in life" said a
wealthy retired hardware dealer, ''fn
a singular manner.
"You might not think it, 1 having
passed the major portion of my life in
selling nails. padlocks, stoves and
shovels, but in my early youth my
great ambition was to be a writer, an
author. had no doubt whatever that
that was what l was cut out for, and
certainly worked at it good and hard;
but none of the publishers seemed to
agree with me. AS fast as 1 sent the
things in to them they would send
them back
But that didn't worry me. 1 knew
that sooner or later they would come
to like what l wrote and buy it What
got my goat was the expense. l was
very ready writer and l wrote long
pieces. The stamps 1 had to use to
send these pieces out and get them
back cost me lot of money.
When l realized how much l was
paying out for stamps l said to N.Y.
self, 'Humpf! I'll save up that money
for five years and then I'll go to writ.
ing again And for the next five years
l did put aside regularly the amount
that l would otherwise have spent for
stamps, and you would be surprised il
l should tell you how much it amount
ed to But at the end of that time did
not again take up writing.
"Just at that time the senior partner
in the hardware store in our town
died and his heirs drew out all his in
terest in the firm. There was a chance
for a man with little capital to get
into good business l had the CAPT.
tai, my accumulated stamp money, and
bought that interest in the hardware
store.
From that time on 1 was always too
busy to write; but my great success
in the hardware business you can
clearly trace to my original ambition
for authorship"

The Power of Praise

And how it cheers the very soul of
things
Mid starless night, mid sunless day.
Mid dust and thorns along life's way,
A. word of praise-and 10
About US lilies blow!
A little word of praise-how quickly
said
How far its kindly influence is shed.
The pain, the grief, corroding care,
Life's loneliness, SO hard to bear;
word of praise-and then
The word is glad again!
A little word of praise-we cannot know
The bounds 10 which the spoken
thought may go;
For words have wings of woe or veal.
And thoughts have power to harm or
heal;
A word of praise-a gem
In Fortunes diademi
A little word of praise-so short the
time
Ere it will be too late to heed this rhine;
Go forth and find some weary soul -
Where raging seas of sorrow roll;
A word of praise-and "PeaceI'

GAY! Did you ever take your life in
- your right hand and go shopping
with your wife?
i tried it the other day and I've been
hearing voices ever since.
When say shopping" don't mean
that simple everyday gag of bursting
suddenly in upon the sleepy floor
walker in a delicatessen parlor and
with languid elbows leaning over the
remnants of a once beautiful cheese
while he cruelty separates four kip
pered herring from the bosom of a
large and loving family.
Nix-I mean Big League shopping,
I mean that kind of shopping that
women go in training for two weeks
in advance; high-class, expert shop
ping, where important money changes
hands; the kind of shopping that
wives look forward to with dreamy
eyes and live ever after on the memo
ries; the shopping that sweeps a hus-
band off his feet and makes him long
to be dusky-hued postmaster in No.
township, Samoan Islands, where
the fashion in fig leaves is permanent
and money is a myth.
John" said Peaches, the other
morning, 81 want you to go to the
stores with me today. l have lot of
shopping to do and you can be such
help to me, because"
wait a minute, friend wife," 1
broke in. What have l done that
you should wish such calamity on
me? Tell me to go out and get for my
personal use an attack of inf1amma-
tory rheumatism and I'll do so; ask
me to try to catch street car at the
corner of Broadway and Fffty-third
Street and I'll work hard at the job
up to the time a murderous taxicab
climbs my front elevation and mains
me for life-but don't, Oh! wife,
don't ask me to go shopping with
you!"
NONSENSE" she gurgled. 81 can't
go alone, can 1? And, besides, you
must help me select two new gowns
at the Maison de Splash must have
at least two, mustn't I? And from
there we'll go to Ginkstein and Boob
heimer's, where 1 want to get a hat
l must have something chic to take
off in the theaters, mustn't I?-And
then we'll spend an hour in Gorgon-
zola Brothers, where l can pick out
the set of furs you promised me for
Christmas, and then Wen go to Cam
embert's for some gloves 1 need, and
then"
Help! Throw me anything! Don't
you see I'm sinking!
The answer is 1 went-and live to
prattle about it.
You know, this shopping gag brings
out more prominently than anything
else the fact that the high cost of liv-
, ing is caused by living high at any
cost.
The ancient Greeks had a saying,
''He spends his money like a drunken
sailor" and that goes for seventy-five
out of a hundred today.
The majority of the boobs give
