winter came she was always able to
fill up her coal bin and lay In a
good stock of vegetables, saving a
Considerable amount by buying early
and in quantities. Her savings in
the bank grew steadily by her reg
ular deposits and the gradually In
creasing compound interest credits.
Whenever she had enough saved
for permanent investment she con,

Portable home. There is regret for
the husband and father who never

away and restored what might have

A banker long an odlcer OF the
oldest bank in Minnesota, in telling
how four young men developed q
successful business, said:
Their first visit to the bank
really established their credit. In
that first visit they left their bank
books for collection Of the amounts
due to each of them at their saw
ing bank in the city from which
they came.
"These savings-bank books repre-
sented their cash capital, but to me
they represented much more than
that. Their deposits and almost en-
tire absence of Withdrawals indi-
Gated an established habit of saving
en- their part and also on the part
of their families (for they were all
married) for the purpose OF carry
ing out this project which they had
planned long time ahead.
with such determination for
work and willingness to deny them
selves in order to save something
each month out of their earnings. 1t
was hardly possible for these young
men not to succeed.
They had been highly success
full because they acquired saving
habits early in life and thereby &C
cumuIated their capital before enter
ing business for themselves, while
so many are not willing now to
practice any self-deniaL but some
how always expect to begin saving
at some future time, with the re-
suit that they never acquire the
habit or the capital.
"A banker necessarily takes these
various things into consideration
when asked to grant line of credit.
They mean much to him from the
Of the moral risk.
Could there possibly be any clearer
guide-board to success than the
words of this old banker?

president may at any time transfer
to the navy department.
The new organization tncludes
over 1000 officers and men twenty
six ships. Of sea-going type, twenty
harbor tugs and nearly 800 coast
guard stations. The disadvantages
which prevented many ambitious
young men from entering the re-
venue cutter and life saving service
have been overcome by making the
same provisions for the coast guard
as for the army and navy, including
pensioned retirement after thirty
years of service, increased pay Tor
re-enIigtment, and provision for de
pendents of men who lose their lives
The first records OF the combined
service for a year show that FOR
each dollar expended there has been
g. saving of $500 worth of prop
erty from danger at sea. In addf-
ton, 6,238 lives have been saved
and thirty-one derelicts obstructing
navigation removed.
The work of the coast guard is to
be chiefly confined to the coasts OF
the Atlantic and Pacific oceans and
great lakes, but Will be called into
service inland whenever lives and
property are endangered by great
river foods.

history OF the land of Montezumas
has Just fallen out of the hands OF
one revolutionary faction and into the
possession OF another.
Its narrow, stone-paEed streets now
echo to the tread of the troops of one
faction and now another. Its many
churches, erected during the centuries
when Spain grew rich from the mines
OF Mexico, are listening to the con-

deafeningly over a similar scene IN
Jardin Zenia, the little square dn the
very center of the town, where the
booksellers offer many old and
quaint volumes and the opal vendors
harvest many a nelligitimate dol
