THE HABIT OF THRIFT.

A great many people expect 70 ac-
quire all their good habits in their sec
ond childhood; and enc OF the good
habits long put off is thrift Often
quite often this habit fails to ma
terialize with the coming Of that sec
oud childhood With appetites and
passions burned out OF the decaying
mind and body, old men may find
themselves free from temptations and
imagine their condition is the direct
result of recently ripened virtue
But thrift. like any other virtue
which has been forced upon US by ma
ture, is apt 10 end its environment UNI
healthy and 10 proceed at once TO cur
die into penurious meanness.
II thrift Is to be wholesome and
sweet and fruitful, It must be en-
braced while the mind and body are
healthy and vigorous Thrift is a
composite quality. II embraces with
in itself nearly all the great virtues.
II implies industry. prudence, fore
sight, self-denial. II certainly has no
relation to niggardliness or meanness.
Some men would let their grand
mothers starve to death for the sake
OF a few dollars. That can not be
called thrift. Any virtue carried 70
excess becomes a vice Thrift that
does not take into partnership hon
esty and charity soon sours into covet-
BUSINESS and ayarice.
True thrift Is the opposite of thrift
lessness, prodigality, improvidenee
and waste. Thrift means better
homes and better food, more comfort
and enjoyment, less waste and less
anxiety out of it grow quickened
energies. irmer courage. more stall
wart thought and hope. more orderly
citizenship, education and good
chance in life for the children, and the
independence and self-respect that
lift aimless, hopeless drudges up to
true man and womanhood.
We may all soon acquire the habit
of thrift If we will TO do so

angle play, featuring Seena Owen and

Ranches, will be exhibited at the Re-

much at home in the role.
As the ranch boss she is annoyed by
the attentions of designing foreman,

protection. Her escape on horseback
ia one of the exciting features Of the

GERMANY's MAN.PowER.

Surprise has frequently been ex-
pressed concerning Germany's re-
sourcefulness and the facility with
which she has been able to replace the
soldiers killed, disabled or captured
by continuous reinforcements.
Where do all these reinforcements
come from, has been the query, and
the answer has been, in some in
stances, that Germany had not drawn
upon all her resources and that the
number of boys reaching the military
age annually aggregates something
like a million
Other estimates of the number of
young men added to the fighting force
every year, taking them at as early an
age as II, have reduced the figure 10
about half million, but, according TO
what are declared TO be authentic fig
ures compiled by capable statisticians,
Germany's losses in little more than
three years of war have been consid-
erably in excess OF an average Of a
million a year, and that her man
power is not more than half as great
as it was at the beginning.

Montagu Love and June Elvidge. in

attraction at the Colonial for this
evening. james Rokeby, president
National Bank of Brewster, is guar
dian of Marie Dacre, heiress to large
estate. William Donovan, proprietor
of tough saloon and gambling joint,
former New York policeman, knows
that Rokeby in the past was a crook
Donovan makes use of his knowledge
to blsckmail Rokeby. The latter,
who is extremely fond of his ward, in
terferes to prevent Fenwick Harvey.
a man Of bad reputation, from becom-
ing her lover Harvey confers with

the evidence, Rokeby offers to give
himself up. tn. Brewster chief of
police refuses to arrest him. Donovan
blackjacks Rokeby and puts him
aboard freight bound for New York.
In the meantime Marie discovers

SOCIAL STANDING or A PRIVATE.

There appears in the current news
two items of military information
which are of the highest sociological
interest, says the Philadelphia Bulle-
tin A New York broker claimed
exemption from the draft on the
ground that service in the army
would injure his social standing
Asked TO explain he said that If ne
went TO war his wife would have only
$500 year. which would not be
enough TO maintain her in her accus-
toned style of living and humiliation
would result!
The other item concerned the doings
of Private Field, of Chicago. Anyone
seeing this sturdy young specimen OF
manhood. digging trenches, washing
his own clothes and mending them,
would not suspect that he is heir TO
the fortune of the late Marshall Field,
the merchant prince of Chicago, esti-
mated to be worth $S65,000,000.
Young Field does not feel that his so
cial status is affected by national serv-
ice. He didn't wait to be drafted; he
volunteered, and he is only one OF
many millionaires. or heirs to mil
lions. who can be found in our various
camps,
II must be admitted that there is a
very important social question con-
nected with army service which will
appear more prominently in the near
future The time is soon coming
when a young man who has not serv-
ed his country when called will be a
social outcast. After this nation has
suffered a bit there win be no use for
slackers, towards and hypocritical
collectors" Moreover. the time is
coming when those who have served
will get the social and material re-
wards to the exclusion of those who
might have gone and who did not.

great majority of the people of this
country are not going to lose any
sleep over the discovery. Whatever
sympathy one may be inclined to feel
toward those who viii be compelled TO
nav this increased tax is submerged
in the desire to be in position TO
stand such a demand upon ones in

nat ambition to become the recipient

II would appear that England has
reached the end of her large supply
of forebearance and would begin to
show Germany that two could play at
the game of dropping bombs on de-
fenseless women and children. France
was quick to return the aerial attack
upon Bar-le-Duc, nor has the French,
anger been appeased by one return
visit to German cities. Should both
England and France accept the chal-
lenge of Germany and enter upon a
war of indiscriminate slaughter, the
German people would find the match
that lit the fuse still alight in the fin
gers of their Kaiser. There exists no
justification for visiting vengeance on
the innocent, but when anger has been
aroused over injury inflicted, it over
rides reason. This is the condition in
England today Galveston Tribune
