SPOILED BIG WEDDING FEAST
How Ex-German Emperor Upset DIM
ner on Which Herr BalIin Had
Spent Much Money.

Herr BALM was noted for the ex-
travagant dinners which he gave on
great occasions, says the Edinburgh
Scotsman. Probably the most magnifi-
cent Of all was that which he arranged
to grace the wedding of the kaiser's
daughter to the duke Of Brunswick.
The floral decorations alone cost $10,.
600, the dinner worked out at about
$50 plate, and the wines at about
$50. But the dinner. from Herr Bal
Inns point of view, was failure, for
the kaiser and kaiserin. who were to
have been present, sent word in the
afternoon that they could not come;
and 1t was in their honor, of course,
that Herr Ballin had spent his thou
sands on the banquet. One of his
servants has said that when Herr Bal
lin received the message that the en-
peror could not come, he flew into a
tremendous rage. He sent for his
butler, and ere the man had reached
Herr Ballin's study, his master shouted
out to him: THE emperor cannot come
to dinner tonight-put the whole show
off" and then slammed the door. The
butler did not know exactly what to
do. To put off so important guests as
were to be present was, Of course, an
impossibility; but no one in the house
hold dared to approach the master of
1t to suggest this. However, at about
8 o'clock Herr BALM had sufficiently
recovered his temper to come down
stairs and give some necessary direc-
tons ABOUT the banquet.

NOW AND THEN

What is a dollar? Foolish cues

tainly dollar isn't what it was ten
years ago. 1t isn't what it will be
five years from now.
A dollar is what you can get for
1t in beans. butterflies. or bunk-no
more or no less. A dollar wouldn't
be worth anything ii you couldn't get
anything for it.
Ten years ago you bought, we'll
say, bunk at one dollar a share. Now
bunk costs two dollars a share. That
doesn't mean that bunk has doubled
In value. 1t means that your dollar
is worth half what 1t was ten years
ago.
This is, therefore, not the time to
spend your dollars. They will bring
you only half what they are worth.
This is the time to save them.
They will bring more later on.
That Is the history of dollars. Values
run In cycles. AS sure as you are
living five years from now a dollar
Will be worth more than it is now.

you save dollar now you are really
saving two dollars. Treat dollars as
you would any other commodity. Buy
them when they are cheap.

War Savings Stamp bought this
month for s4.20, will be worth five
dollars January 1, 1924. By 1924

The wooden cross is dumb. dead
