started it on it's journey. His act of launching it on it's debt-paying career had enabled two of his own debtors to pay him.
 That's the way it always works
 Most people are solvent--other peo- pie owe them as much as they owe other people, But they can't get what's coming to them, and SO they can't pay what they owe. Thus debts run on indefinitely all through the com munity. And because money circulates slowly, everybody's kept worrad about his finances, and business lags. That is because, when people have money in their pockets, they hang. onto 1t. But pay. your debts, and the money comes back to you. When a community once gets that idea, thea whole process is speeded up ana everybody is happier and more prog porous.

The Psychology of Dress.
(NeW York Tribune)

The effect of the military uniform upon the mind of the soldier is the reason for General Bells preference for the more ornate blue over the dull olive drab dress which now prevails in the army. It is argued that the return to the blue dress-except dur ing actual serVice-WOuld besides en- courag aging. neatness increase the sol dier's pride and self respect
 The question is whether it is pride in the uniform which adds respect to the soldiers calling, or respect for the calling which makes a man proud of the uniform. It is not as ornaments that we are interested either in the soldier or his uniform. From a pure ly aesthetic point of view there might be some question whether a man in the uniform of the United States army is a we'll dressed man. Whether good dress is improved by color and gold braid is doubtless matter of person. al taste. It is certain that pride in uniform alone would. not induce an enlisted man to exchange Uncle Sans khaki for the gaudy habiliments in which certain hotels and 'theaters dress their bellboys and ushers
 Does not the present tendency to plain army uniforms follow the yener- al spirit of democracy in the psvcho1- ogv of dress? The average man todan whether his calling, does not wish to appear conspicuous. The time when
