With any amount of good securi- ties in the bank, he lives in mean house, in mean clothes. and on mean food. Never in his life has he spent four bits to gs to the circus, and in the country self-denial can go no further than that. We who think that an in- nocent good time is worth spending d little mouey for dislike and dessise him.
 The feeling is not reasonable. We should rather regard the skinhint as d public benefactor. and prize him ac- cordlngly. II any other man made the sacrifices he makes for the public good, he would be serenaded by the local ukelele club, and rendered d banquet Every sing gle deprivation that he in tlicts upon himself means that he puts Just so much more money into the gen eral wage fund out of which you and and all the rest of Us get our honest pay for our honest work. As matter of fact, he cannot help himself, for the only way in which he can increase his hoard is by buying tools aud materials and hy letin. u, use them in making something valuable to the world and protitaOte to ourselves. We get much out of his money-a living and perhaps some honest happiness; but he gets nothing excepts an empty sense of own- erShlp.
