THE TWO SIDES OF EVERY SALE.

When you bill a man for an order of
say S500-you do two things:
You furnish him goods, and unless
he pays for them promptly, you prac-
tically LOAN him $500.
But banking is not YOUR line of
business. If you indulge in it, it costs
you money. Either you must pay for
it out of your own profits, or lose it
in one of many ways.
The same thing is true, with the sit
uation reversed, when a creditor fur
nishes you a bill of goods to the tune
of $500.
At go a year that $500 will breed"
$50 without any effort; that is $3.50 a
month. This may not seem much at
first glance. But when you analyze it,
it is a horse of a different color"
For the chances are that your profit
on that $500 is only about $50. If that
bill is left outstanding for two months,
your profit on it, on the above basis
has diminished S., OF 1917, at least
to say nothing of how much more
money you could have made with that
amount, if it had been in YOUR de-

Bands Not Playing?"-George AIDE.

and the masters of food supplies
thought they knew that Germany
would stand out for many months.
Now then, to suppose a case. If
some one had come to you on October
| with a proposition to end the war
within six weeks by a complete and
overwhelming victory on condition that
you would subscribe literally for Vic
tory bonds in the spring of 1919, you
would have replied as follows:
Say, end the war this fall and stop
the killing and manning of u boys,
and put the kaiser out Of business and
compel Germany to accept our terms
and let the American soldiers begin to
head for home, and I'll pledge by last
dollar for the loan that is needed to
clean up the expenses"
That's how you felt on October /,
1918, and now that all the miracles
have come to pass, are you going to
be grateful or forgetful?
You are now asked to help finance
(by merely lending on favorable terms
and not giving) the final and gigantic
expenditures which brought victory
months ahead of the schedule.
If we had lost the war, what would
YOU be paying this spring and to
whom? Fow's your memory? Did
you feel certain, just a year ago today,
that Germany could be prevented from
debating terms to the whole world?
How about a loyal parent who re-
fuses to pay a doctor bill because the
child gets well instead of dying?
When you tackle a big job do you
stick to the finish, or do you go fish
ing and permit some more dependable
Ia to come in and put on the roof
and chimney?
Do you experience symptoms of
morality only when the doctor is seat
ed at the bedside?
When you start to go somewhere,
do you travel four-ffths of the way
and then flop by the wayside?
Can you be patriotic when the band
is not playing?
We are setting up a big job, so
don't queer your war record at the
eleventh hour by being a gutter.

RESURRECTION.

l an he that liveth, and was dead,
and behold, 1 am alive for evermore.-
Rev. 1-1S.
l am the resurrection and the life:
he that believeth in me, though he
were dead, yet shall he live:
And whatsoever liveth and believeth
in me shall never die.
Believest thou this John 11-25.
Jesus said, 81 am the resurrection"
Notice this thought-He was not
speaking in future tense. He is the
resurrection.
He that believeth in me (not be-
lieved, but believeth-believing all
the time), though he were dead lin
SIM yet shall he live.
Blessed and holy is he that hath
part (not will have) in the first resur-
rection.-Rev. 20-6.
AS we celebrate the resurrection of
our Blessed Lord, let us search our
hearts and see where we are standing.
What is our answer to the question,
Believest thou this?
At this bright spring time, when
everything is springing into new life,
and the earth is bursting forth in new
beauty and gladness, u hearts are
filled with praise to God for his loving
kindness. We know because He lives,
we live also, in Him. Let us be joyful
in the Lord. Not joyful over fashion,
nor new clothes, nor costly raiment,
but filled with the joy of the Spirit,
praising God that we have a part in
the first resurrection.
Love not the world, neither the
things that are in the world. If any
mar love the world the love of the
Father is not in him-1st John 2-15.

debtor.
We dare say you yourself had scarce
ly thought of the many, the very many
ways in which overdue outstandings
affect the welfare of your business.
And no doubt the man who owes
rou the money did not stop to think
of it-otherwise he would pay more
promptly, and if his delinquency is due
to his own overdue outstandings on
the part of his customers, he will be
more strict with his own collections.
So you see, you are really rendering
him a service by holding him to what
our President calls "strict accounta-
bility"-to say nothing of the duty you
owe your own business.
Most men r fair. If you present
the matter to him in that light, a new
light" will indeed dawn upon him.
He will pay more promptly, and you
will be able to pay your bills more
promptly, taking advantage of every
discount, saving every dollar you have
heretofore had to pay for interest.

IF" OR SURPRISING"
BY GEORGE ABE.

On October 1, 1918, you, being a
wise man and having read with care
the opinions of military experts, knew +:
1. That the great war was going to
last until far into the summer of 1919.
2. That the casualties among the
American soldiers would be increas-
ingly heavy up to the final moment
of fighting.
3. That, as a result of the growing
magnitude of the world struggle, the
government Of the United States
would call upon us for at least three
huge bond subscriptions during 1919.
If you believed otherwise you were
in the minority, for the cabinets of all
the nations united against Germany,
and the bankers and the shipbuilders.
