scale. It's easy to own and

one.
Bands are used to maintain a
country's patriotism. Public
gatherings are as dry and life
less as a sailed herring until the
band appears on the scene and
uncorks its first stirring march.
Then every man in the crowd
wants to do something patriotic,
heroic. America is the most pa.
triotic country in the world be-
cause she has the best bands.
Italy is probably as unpatriotic
as any country because all of
her patriotism has to come out
Of a h%and-organ or accordion.
Lots of people think it is fun
to play in a band, It is. The
members get to dress them
selves up in nice, tight-titting
military uniforms of wool that
button snugly around the neck,
thus keeping out the heat. I
can imagine nothing more de-
lightful than to parade for four
or five miles in such an outfit
when the sun is hitting around
104 in the shade. Especially do
[ envy the base drummer on
such occasions.
There is, however, much glory
and at least one real soft snap in
a band. The leader has both of
them.

M|LL|ONA|RES

A Millionaire is a man who
has enough money to live 100
years on $4,000 a year.
Very few millionaires do this,
however! Some of them live 10
years on $780, 600 a year and
some SO years on $500 a year.
And vet we put men in insane
asylums for such trifes as try
ing to chase pink mice on the
ceiling.
Millionaires have no distin-
gushing features and it is very
difficult to detect them, especial
ly during the open season for as
sessments. Some of the million
aires are proud of their money
and advertise it by touring cars,
fancy wives and large, sbapely
residences with "Private. Keep
out" On the front gate. Others
are ashamed Of their money and
keep it locked tightly in a large
safe so it cannot get out and an
noy the poor.
Some mjllionaires can be de-
tected by the faces they make
when they smoke a cheap TWEEN
ty-ive cent cigar. On the other
hand some millionaires can be
detected by the roar they put up
when the newsbOy on the corner
tries to hold out a penny on
them.
Millionaires make themselves
principally in two ways: by saw
ing money and by making it im.
possible for anyone else to save
any. The latter is by far the
most popular. BY lunching on
an apple, wearing the same suit
of clothes twenty-five years, and
borrowing his neighbours lawn
mower a man may possibly be-
come a millionaire in time to
write a will disposing of it to the
lawyers. On the other hand, if
a man invents a little trust he
may become a millionaire over
night by putting up the price of
ice owing to the scarcity of
Christmas trees.
New York City has 10000 mil
lionaires and 1000, 900 who are
trying to be. There may be
other things the matter with
New York, but they are trihes
compared with this.
Millionaires, if caught young,
can be trained to do a great deal
of good; but the millionaire who
tries to eat and drink up an in
come of $50, 900 a year with only
occasional help, not only acquires
indigestion but a fearless tomb.
We should all strive to become
millionaires, but not as earnest.
ly as we should strive to keep
our taxes paid and our elbows
out of other peoples ribs.

We wonder how many of our
