TALKS ON THRIFT
BUMPS AND PLEASANT DOORS

There is a certain vaudeville skit
that is absurdly amusing, but absurd
ity is true. 1t is a mock circus. One
of the attractions is patent fly cat

mony of the usual circus barker the
merits of this invention are extolled
Attracted by a pleasant odor coming
from an open door with the word wei

surroundings are inviting. He en-
joys himself immensely, and proceeds
to explore the place. Suddenly he
finds himself on a coy balcony. At
PENDANTS are there to wait on him,
cool breezes are blowing and refresh
ments are his for the taking. He rests
awhile. Proceeding further he finds
himself kn a higher balcony, with
more attractions and has another 81
esta. Exploring still further he finds
another open door, with an inviting
sign overhead, ventures out. only to
find no balcony, and plunges to his
death. Absurd, you say-yes. But
true OF many people in real life.
A certain music master had in his
choir a promoter. He induced the mu-
stefan to invest about three hundred
dollars in certain chewing gum prop
osition that promised large returns.
The music master doubled his money
in three months and was delighted
with the new way of getting rich quick.
The fly had found a coy balcony and
liked it,
Along came another proposition by
the same man, that promised even big
ger returns, but entailed more money
He was leading his victim to higher
balcony, and he, poor fly didn't know

The music master consulted his
banker who advised him to keep his
profits and stay out You will get
the speculative fever in the end said
the bank man; but the little fly knew
better; he had tried one resting place
and liked it, and would try another. He
put practically all his savings into the
new proposition, and inside of three
months the promoter was among the
missing, leaving a deserted office anC
bale of stock certificates as his

master got a bad bump and hasn't re
