F. X. Dougherty Attacked by
Hoodoos Vixen He Attempts
to Advertise Revival Services

For some reason other it appeared to Rev. f.
X. Dougherty of the Grace M. E. church last week
that all the gods were against him. That there ap-
peared to be some kind of deep, dark cabal be-
tween those digntaries to spike" the evangelistc
revivals being put by LeMance at the tabernacle
evident from the trend OF events preliminary 20
the first meeting.
The first big meeting was Sunday afternoon for
only. To get a big audience Rev. Mr. Dougherty
had 5000 tickets printed announcing the meeting.
The copy for the tickets was furnished by LeMance
himself. Dougherty got the tickets in time and then
started out downtown distributing them in all the
stores. He had deposited 1000 of them and was
Just leaving of the stores when suddenly after
him came a breathess clerk holding up of the
cards
say he said II want to go to this meeting but
I don't know when it is going to be held. This tick
doesn't say word about it
Dougherty examined the card infinitely then for
the first time and that everything was on the
card but the date and hour Of meeting.
He went home and consulted with Mrs DOugherty.
We'll, isn't that too bad. suppose we can Go
nothing better than take the remaining 1000 tick
cts and stamp the date them with our rubber
stamp" DOugherty acquiesced with this and Mrs
Dougherty stamped the 1000 tickets.
Then the pastor started out again distributing the
cards. He had given out 500 of them when small!
boy came up with and after sideing about a
moment two, said:
Pardon me. Mr. Dougherty. but surely there is u
mistake here. This card says the meeting is TO be
Dougherty again scrutinized the card and was
find his wife had evidently got hold of the
wrong stamp.
SO he took the 500 remaining tickets home again
and showed them TO Mrs DOugherty.
Being a minister's wife, Mrs. Dougherty did not
get peeved did Dougherty. They sat down and
made pen marks through the date and put on the
correct
This time the tickets were scanned carefully be
fore they sent out
BY this time DOugherty was pretty tired, so he en-
listed several boys in the task OF distributing the last
tickets.
After the boys gone Dougherty sat down and
wiped his brow while Mrs. DOugherty put away the
stamps and ink.
ronf holm said DOft0
erty.
Then the door bell rang. DOugherty went an

tickets He was also out of breath a though he

Busy Hotel Corridors One
Indication That Country Is
Recovering from Depression

Ever since Jan. talk has been rife of big in
crease to in business during the first three
months Of the year. Addresses letters circulars
and newspapers have conveyed the joyful prediction
that the country is fast convalescing from its re-
cent attack of business depression and soon the A.
nancial pulse will again be going a normal gait
Watch the hotels these days and the prediction
a fair way 70 come true. That they are
crowded every day their limit with travelling sales
men is apparent without first interviewing the man
ayers. Every train that comes in sends loads Of
these busy bustling to the hotels And you
don't see them lettering around either. They go up
and register. arrange for then start out
after business.
AS one prominent representative from the east
said: 1.-The business is here, everywhere the men
after it. The manufacturers have awakened TO
this fact and on the job. If the business isn't
visible the surface they send out their stars to
get and dig it out. They out to make bust
ness If it isn't there"
The hotel men say that never before in their
knowledge has such increase been noted in the
transient trade following the holidays as there is
this year. They just come in swarms." said one

em away yet we been filled up clear to the

when they see some Of these orders pour in
Since it has been predicted that conditions will
keep improving until about the end OF March
there is saying how many travelling will

Not only the big firms sending out their men

the settlement of estate South Bend.
Within few hours notice $4,000 needed To
make the settlement with OF the heirs. II hap
pened that the testatOr owned considerable build
ing and loan stock and the $4,000 was drawn i'm
medately from this portion of the estate
IF the money had been invested in bonds it is
possible that they could have disposed
of for several months" said Mr.. Boone.
1t the advice of Mr.. Thorward to secure bonds
which can be disposed of at almost moments
Another business man who preferred investing
money in bonds to placing it in real estate gave
the following example which explains itself:
REAL ESTATE COMPARATIVELY POOR
Il may have $500 to invest With half of this
amount $500. purchase a piece of property. The
other half invest in bonds paying six per cent
terest Twelve years pass and sell my real estate
for $500, having made 500 from my property dur
ing this time. Now take a look at my bond invest
ment. Twelve years before put $500 down and
now have just double that amount, the compound
interest making my bond asset $500. From the real
estate I made 500 and from the bonds ] made
$500. OF 1 might have made more money on
other real estate, but took the example from the
average"
Most of the men interviewed the subject Of in
vestments for the man with the small capital be
lieved that the banks were not the most profitable
investments for small depostOrs. They stated that
If prospective investor will study the situation and
investigate he make investments which will pay
him greater interest than will bank.
One suggested that the banks should be but
a place to keep small checking accounts He
termed the bank the middeman" who acts only as
an agent for the depostOr and takes part of the de
positor's interest for services rendered.
But fact all of the business men agreed upon
and that that there is much hope for the man
who saves at least slight portion of his money and
invests it properly They that saving
hundred dollars and leaving it lie in the bank to
touched at time for the purpose of impractical
spending not good method of investing
That there should be definite goal in view
when person starts to money also agreed
upon by the authorities There should be a sys-
tematical method of storing away investing
The young man who begins to accumulate money
generally does this in anticipation of the burdens
he may be obliged to bear in later years and to tide
him over the last few miles of his voyage through
the world and to give him the opportunity to retire
as he goes into the final lap of LIES journey.
Study the figures given by these men, young man
and woman. Stop and think for a time whether
not you afford to drop these foolish little
bits of uselessness for which you paying
but slight price. These and others state
that the price of not saving is paid with
during the later years of life and not when one is
young.

DUMBA
LEAVES

NEW YORK, Oct. 1.-The Unit
ed States today stamped fins
on the career of DR.. Constatin
Theodor Dumba as the Austrian
ambassador to this country.
The incident of his machina-
lions to halt American munitions
production came to an end when
he and his wife sailed at noon on
the liner Nieuw Amsterdam, bear
ing the usual diplomatic courtesy
of safe conduct from the enemy.
He left without a message of
parting to the United States, but
said that when he reached Europe
he might have a comment.
The Dumbas have entertained
lavishly the last FEW days. De-
spite his diplomatic faux pas, he
was regarded as one of the most
personally popular of the diplo-
matte corps.

Still another diplomatic victory
of importance for Wilson and
Lansing was counted today when
Count Won Bernstorff assured
Secretary Lansing that the kaiser
would recede from his position on
the Arabic case.
Up to date, the kaiser had re-

The United States insisted on
both concessions on his part. and
when he offered to compromise
the question, advised him that the
United States would not compro-

The kaiser's message today, In
