THE MONEY THEY CARRY.
Poor Men, as q Rule, Have More In Their Pockets Than Rich Men.

TooT "cn, as ntieS nave WoTo m
 Their Pockets Than Rich Men.
 The next time you meet John D. Rockefeller just ask him how much money he has in his pocket. Ask him how much he has in the safe at his house or in the safe deposit box at his bank-I mean real, old fashioned bank notes and dollar bills. Let me tell you that if at this xery moment you and John D. Rockefeller should swap pock- etbooks you would likely get stung. MT. Rockefeller probably has not a cent more of real money in his pocket today than you have. In general way this applies to all peoples all over the world. In many communities the workpeople carry more money about with them thaA the rich.
 I we'll remember that once. at my summer home on the coast of Massa- chusetts; where real money is scarcer than fresh eggs, very rich man who was visiting us asked me to cash check for him as he was leaving for New York. On looking into his. pock- etbook he discovered he had only having only. a five dollar bill and a few pennies. Even Mrs. Babson could dig up only few dollars, as we have everything charged and pay by check.
 We were just on the point Of break ing open child's bank when paint CT working about the house overheard the conversation and suggested that perhaps he could cash a check for $50! This workman had on him a roll of several hundred dollars in bills.-Rog- CT W. Babson in Saturday Evening Post r1sf's..f.i = ...

Love Affairs of Handel.

Women greatly admired Handel, who was very handsome, but the serenity of the composer seems only to have been ruff1ed twice by love on his part. His first attachment was to, London girl, a member of the aristocracy. Her parents believed him beneath her in sociaN position, but were good enough to say that if he fabstained from writ ing any more music the question of marriage might be entertained. It was easier to abstain from their daughter than from his art, and he didSso. Years after almost the same thing occurred. Handel and another beautiful pupil of his fell in love with each other, and proud parents gave him the choice be- tween giving up his profession or their daughter. Music, N"heavenly maid" was chosen.-''..The Love Affairs of Some Famous Men,

A ProphecX That Failed.

The old Emperor William used to tell story against himself which well serves t9 illustrate that most gratuf- tous form of error, prophecy" When the emperor was only king of Prussia he saw one day among his troops an untidy looking lieutenant. "Who is that man?" he asked. i"An officer" he was told, "who has just left the Danish service and joined the Prussian." 1" That man, will never get on in the armyi' said the monarch, and he used to add in telling the story, "The man was Moltke, and my Judgment of him gives you the measure of my insight"
