consider seriously his spring and summer
outfit. Until now such details had given
him scarcely more concern than the ques-
ton of food in his daily life. Some three
or four times a year, at any convenient
opportunity, he strolled into his tailor's
and examined samples at his leisure. AL
ways recognizing at sight just what he
wanted, no great mental strain was in
volved. He had merely to wave his
cigarette toward any pleasing cloth, mem
ton the number of buttons desired on
coat and waistcoat, and the matter was
practically done.
But when Graustein & Company an
nounced to him their new spring importa-
tons, and he dropped in there one morn
ing on his way downtown, he recognized
item of cost. 1t was distinctly disturb
ing and embarrassing necessity, which
MIR. Graustein did nothing to soften. He
looked his surprise when Don, in as
casual fashion as possible, inquired:
"What will you charge for making up
this?'
"But you have long had an account with
us!" he exclaimed. Here is something
here. Mr. Pendleton-an exclusive weave
"No,' answered Don firmly; II don't
want that. But this other-you said
you'd make that for how much?"
Graustein appeared injured. He waved
his hand carelessly.
Eighty dollars he replied. "You
really need two more, and I'll make the
three for two hundred
Thanks. l will tell you when to go

street again, Don caught his breath. His
bill at Graustein's had often amounted to
three times that, but it had not then
come out of salary Of twenty-five dollars
a week. Without extra expenses he sell
dom had more than dollar left on Satur-
day. By the strictest economy, he
figured, it might be possible to save five.
To pay bill of two hundred dollars would
at that rate require forty working weeks.
By then the clothes would be worn out.
1t was facts like these that brought
home to Don how little he was earning, and
that made that ten thousand dollar salary
appear like an actual necessity. 1t was
facts like these that helped him to hold on.
RUT it was also facts like these that
- called his attention to this matter of cost
in other directions. Within the next two
months, one item after another of his
daily life became reduced to- figures, until
he lived in world fairly bristling with
price-tags. Collars were so much apiece,
cravats so much apiece, waistcoats and
shoes and hats so much AS he passed
store windows the price-tags were the first
thing he saw. 1t seemed that everything
was labeled, even such articles of common
household use as bed-linen, chairs and
tables, carpets and draperies. When they
were not he entered and asked the prices.
1t became passion with him to learn the
cost of things.
1t was toward the middle of May that
Frances first mentioned a possible trip
abroad that summer.
"Doly Seagraves is going, and wishes
me to go with her, she announced.
at will take a lot of money! he said.

o'clock, because if I'm late again that is
just what is going to happen. And you
know what dad would say to that
The next morning Don stepped briskly
into the Office five minutes ahead of Miss
Winthrop.
1T was quite evident that Farnsworth
had something in mind; for, beginning
that week, he assigned Don to a variety
of new tasks-to checking and figuring
and copying, sometimes at theticker, some
times in the cashiers cage of the bond de-
partment, sometimes on the curb. For
the most part, it was dull, uninspiring
drudgery of clerical nature, and it got
on Don's nerves. Within month he had
reached the conclusion that this was
nothing short of a conspiracy on Farms
worth's part to tempt him to resign. 1t
had the effect of making him hold on all
the more tenaciously. He did his work
cOnscentiously, and-with his lips little
more tightly set than was his custom
kept his own counsel.
He had no alternative. His new work
gave him little opportunity to talk with
Miss Winthrop, and she was the one per-
son in the world in whom he felt he could
confide safely and at length. She herself
was very busy. Mr.. Seagraves, having
accidentally discovered her ability, was
now employing her more and more in his
private Office.
1t was about this time that lot Of
petty outside matters came up, further to
vex him. Up to this point Don's ward
robe had held out fairly well; but it was
a fact that he needed a new business suit,
and a number of tailors were thOughtfully
reminding him that, with March APP
preaching, it was high time he began to

credit later. The bank wants to know the
worst in the beginning. Nine times out of
ten the basis for bank loans is the average
deposit balance the borrower has been
keeping for some length of time. If the
young man has had, say, $500 on deposit
for year or two, has good reputation,
and makes clean statement of what he
wants the money for, he can usually Dor
row about $1,000.
Don't be timid about asking for loan
if you have lived up to these qualifications.
Remember that if you lose the banks
money nothing worse than a foreclosure
at the most can happen to you. But if the
banker loses his depositors' money he may
go to Jail. He is right in being wary.
Finally, don't trust entirely to your
character, your proposition or even to
the fact that you have kept pretty good
sized and regular balance. Be able to tell
your banker, when you approach him for
a loan, that you have some life insurance
or other property aside from that which
he is Immediately concerned in. 1t reas-
sures him tremendously, even if it is only
two or three sound 500 bonds or few
shares of standard railroad stock. A
man who stands well with his bank has
a capital that can not be taken away from
him, no matter what else happens. But
you will stand better with your bank if
you have little nest-egg somewhere else.
Don't expect your banker to be i'm
pressed by unstable, unknown securities.
Two shares of stock of the kind plainly
indicated by great English novelist are
better for the purpose than sheaves of
Seats and dogs"
"They were the finest in the market,
the aristocracy of investments, based on
enterprises of which every business man
knew the entire soundness. They
conferred distinction on the possessor, like
a great picture or rare volume. They
stifled all questions and insinuations. Put
before any jury . as an evidence of
character, they would almost have excul-
pated murderer"

SUNDAY MAGAZINE for January
Will Bank Lend Me Money on My Character?

I p. MORGAN is quoted as saying that
- he had often lent money to men simply
because he believed in them. Some day l
want to get into business for myself How
can establish relations with a banker, SO
that some day he will believe in me?
THO the young man who wrote this
letter it may be said that he will
never get far with banks unless he
has character to inspire trust; but it
should also be said that character by
itself will not negotiate q loan. 1t is
another case of praising God and keeping
your powder dry. Character is all very
well, but material things are likewise
important.
In no business is character more neces-
sary than in banking. This is because of
the very nature of bank-because of the
fundamental theory upon which it rests.
In any community a bank is the persona
fication of confidence, or should be. To
extend credit, to trust" customers
can be done safely only when there is
character behind them. +a
Where to Place a Small Account
so much for generalities. Let us get
down to bedrock probabilities, and
tell our inquirer how to form banking
relation. TO begin with, he should learn
something about the theory and practice
of banking, so that he can analyze state
ment of assets and liabilities and know
how to pick out a strong institution when
the time comes. AS rule he should keep
away from bank that is more interested
in bonds and stocks than it is in local
business men. Not that bank which
invests most of it's funds in securities is
lacking in safety, but it may not care for
the young mans small account.
The best way to open an account is to
get personal or written introduction
from some one who is already depositor.
Ii you are total stranger to the bank,
you will create good impression and
save trouble by having this clause appear
in the letter of introduction: "Whose sig

Some "Don'ts" for Depositors
HAVING made deposit, show that
you have common sense by not at
once checking most of the money out. If
you intend to go into business for yourself
later on, don't do anything that will injure
your character standing in the commun-
ity. Don't be extravaganza or dissipated.
Your bank is sure to hear of it, sooner or
later. Don't allow yourself to be posted
at club for non-payment Of dues. Pay
all bills promptly. These things seem
trivial, but they weigh heavily with a
bank officer. Above all, don't under any
circumstances get the reputation of being
inattentive to business. Regular habits
and persistent industry will count in your
favor when the time comes for a loan.
When you first open bank account,
don't be foolish enough to ask for loan
