SIDE TALKS
THE GREAT SUBJECT OF saving
BY RUTH CAMERON

THE GREAT SUBJECT OF SAvNG.
In response to my request for some
contri buttons from my rnader friends o.
the great object of Saving: Sub-heads.
how ono can teach oneself 10 prefer thu
deferred entOyments OF saving 10 the
present enjoymcnts of spending: what
proportion of an income one ought to
save, and where one should draw the
line between Injuries and helpful ad-
v;iutaEcs I received so many interest
ing letters that I cnn only Gull out a
few helpful paragraphs. Here are some
OF them.
"Any MAN Is a Pool Who Doesn't Lay
| ABIDE One Dollar in Ten"
"Tf had my life to live over again.
and + knew what | know now. should
, do differently When I was 20 years
OF age l should have taken out an en-
. dnwncnt policy, then / would have
any. man is a fool who does not lay aside
q dollar nut OF every ten do1larS he
earns. and then some day he will have
something 10 fail back upon"
Saving Is q habit like everything
else and must be- started in carly child
hood" Is the contribution Of another
philo sophcr. Doesn't that recall 10 your
mind another sparkle OF the"silver lin
ing Of wars dark cloud?
"Put tho Luxuries In q Cage"
"One feature that will enable per-
son to be wisely economical is to keep
| books. How can anyone know whether
they are doing the right thing or not
when they know nothing definite about
! their expenses" Don't misunderstood
M. To keep an acurat" record OF every
! penny would b. foolish but il you keep
an approx innate cash account the figures
| win disclose Injuries at glance. What
arc iuNnricSo You say they arn one
! thing to-day and another tomorrow &C
cording to ones changed income. That
| Is true. but IL is 4 bad statement for tn"
! ordinary person to have in his nlfnd.
| Place the Injuries in n Gag" OF their
own and take out as many ~ YOU feel
| you can stand. but don't GIT them miScC
! with the real necessities II you want t.
keep your pcrSpcctIv" on saving"
Living witmp an ailowanc" is thr
| best Of p+actiS"s in saving money.
writes wife. PERSONALLY. my expert
| encc has hcen TO get along with Ger
| tain allowance and thereby gain the use
Of a small bank account OF something
| like $5n year"
Three Cheers for Him. Say.
And lastly: when | was married We
managed to save from $50 to SIS n
month on n salary OF $40. But since !
have reached the age of 40 with Sly
! children to support. II is question
! whether ono should try 10 save with 50
many things needed. Ny SALARY has
only increased s23 from what ii was
fifteen ycHrs ago. Yet We have always
managed to contribute to III" govern
mCnt loans"
Considering that prices have advanced
almost double in tn" last fifteen years
and that six children must, al tho very
least. double his expenses 7 should say
that was record to be proud Of,
shouldn't You" II certainly makes me
! wish | were n man so that I could take
off my hat to him.

This week, MT. Bronte, the road overseer of this district took pity upon our town and with the aid of old Beck and a road grader, hied himself to the city of McCrory and began what we hope will develop in- to a countrywide movement, that is, improving the roads and streets. It is true that we have only to get outside of the corporation limits and the road is impossible. Then too, in several streets in town one ot which was in the business sec tion, there was a hole that would give a 1000 pound pair of mules all they could do to go through to say nothing ot an automobile. For a while the road to Jelks was so bad that the travelling public had to either walk or wait at Jelks for a slow train before they could get here.
 The merchants and business men of the town should take the road matter into their own hands and see that we could have a highway upon when we could travel at least ln ah empty wagon.

RAIL DEMANDS
BUMP MARKET
Brotherhood Strike Threats
Have Effect on Every
Stock in List.
BY BROADAN WALL.

New York Aug 4-Because of rail-
road labor's demands proclaimed at
Washington the stock market opened
with break of two points today,
continued active and weak throughout
the session with occasional dtful rail-
Lies, and closed with declines running
from five to ten points in standard
issues. There was no sign of a rally
at the close.
In the early part of the day selling
was almost entirely professional, but
in the afternoon there was real liqui-
dation- At first it came from the gen.
eral public. but finally the big people
got worried over the labor situation
and the last hour saw all classes of
stockholders selling. Steel came out in
10o-share lots and also in blocks of
1000 and more. Not a stock on the
list escaped, even the tobacco shares
which went counter to the market in
the morning.
Money was plentiful throughout the
day, and the rate at one time was
as low as per cent. Cotton declined
about $40 a bale.
1t was not panic, but the list was
very much demoralized. There was a
good market for everything on the
way uo"h Inc weakness al the close,
however. suggested lower prices for
tomorrow. Bargain hunters are hold
ing off because they believe the gen.
eral public has received such a shock
that 1t will take several days to re-
cover from it
The thing to consider from the
market standpoint is whether tho
railroad men will really bring about
nationwide strike If their demands
are not granted BY stopping the
railroads they could also stop all
traffic on all the high seas surround
ing America for these ships would be
without cargoes. They could stran-
gle industry within a week and bring
about a chaotic condition equal to the
worst that Europe has seen. Wall
Street does not believe they are pre-
pared to do this.
The break in stocks has proved
good foundation for the broader
market that is expected in the au-
tumn. Prices had been advanced in
some stocks to a level that caused
conservative bankers to withdraw
from the market

Jail Birds Live on Fat oi
Land Despite Food
Costs.

The high cost of living. now the
biggest thing before the America \
people, Is a matter of no concern
whatever to one element of Washing
tonians. The "shut-ins" at the Dis
trict jail just eat one darned meal
after another without regard to the
range OF prices for the necessities.
Rents may soar and the prices OF
bread and meat follow the example
OF the tabled cow and jump over the
moon, but the fellows doing time in
the big brown building on the East.
ern Branch get their three square
meals a day and vote Superintendent
Foster the prince of providers.
Kettles Like MirrorN
The jail kitchen is a model OF good
order and cleanliness. The great
copper kettles are like mirrors and
reflect the images Of the white-clad
chefs and their assistants as they
fit htther and thither while prepar-
Ing the dishes for the prison menu
and It is some" menue. The din
ner yesterday consisted OF pork and
beans, baked brown. beets, bread
and coffee. The bill Of fare for
dinner today will be:
Bread.
Frankfurters. Spinach.
Picked beets.
Water.
~ The breakfast menu Will be oat-
meal, milk. syrup, bread. coffee. For
supper this evening the prisoners
will be served with curry Of rice, ap-
pie butter, bread. icea tea. The fare
is varied from day to day and in
cludes beef, pork. potatoes. or some
other vegetable, while for supper
there is bologna one night and stew
the next, and so on.
Chaps Battle Here
Rigid rules Of cleanliness are en-
forced in the culinary department by
Superintendent Foster. The cooks
and their assistants, all prisoners, are
required 10 take a bath every day
and shave every other day. The
dining tables are spread in the long.
high-vaulted corridors Of the north
and south wings Of the Jail The
