WHAT THE PAPERS SAY.
Ten-Cent Pieces.

There is an Addison county man who
has accumulated quite competence
by saving all the 10-cent pieces that
have come into his possession. For
thirty years he has not spent 10-cent
piece These little pieces of money
nave been carefully saved and deposit
ed in savings accounts at interest.
This simply illustrates what can be
done by a system of saving and holding
to the system. The little 1O-cent
pieces were not missed and in no way
did they deprive the owner of any
necessity. A few years ago this man
bought an automobile from his savings
of 10-cent pieces and now could buy
another good car and have enough left
to provide for adequate future needs.
Just think, all this has been done on
10-cent pieces. Such record is
startling example of the old adage-
"save the pennies and the dollars will
take care of themselves. Huntington

study of cancer and much research
expressed his opinion that heat was
responsible for the growth of cancer in
many cases. He showed that the men
working beside furnaces had cancer in
the lower limbs very frequently and
also men with cancer of the lips were
usually smokers. Now it is interesting
to get an opinion from another author
ity.
"We all take our smoking very seri-
ously, as if it were a necessity" said
DR.. Robert Able, in addressing the
Practitioners Society of New York at a
recent meeting. ION the contrary, it
is a luxury. and an indulgence; a
luxury which many smoking men can

an annual premium on a good life
insurance.: an Indulgence that is
never health.giving and often bane.
