And on that particular day Skip disappea-eo and had not turned up when we welt to bed. Poor Archie was very uneasy lest Skip should have gone the way of Jack; and mothe. and I shared his uneasiness. But about in the morn ing we both of us heard a sharp lit tie bark downstairs and knew it was Skip, anxious to be let in. So down I went and opened the door on the portico, and Skip simply scuttled in end up to Archie's room. where Archie walked up enough to receive him lit orally with open arms and then went to sleep cuddled up to him.

The police force at that time consisted of one man city collector, street superintendent supervisor of the public health and who discharged all executive functions except dhose of the treasurer. At that time the jail might have believed have been sufficient.
 The county jail built eighteen twenty years ago by the largest in the country engaged in jail and vault construction believed at that time to be the last word.

The moral he adduces is: Save the pennies.
 But What if there had been some at that i, time with such foresight to make such invest ment, where would we be now? Wesmay be thank tune One hundred thousand golden planets the size of earth would have involved the entire solar system destruction.
 Of course. there would have been the difficulty of finding enough gold the earth to represent such an accumulation of wealth; of finding pth9r ma terial on the earth of which to make so many globes of equal that of the earth So prob ably if there been investment of that kand the worst that resulted would be the in- debtedness everybody the heirs and assigns of that investor and then tile chances are that we would long Ahave repudiated the debt and things would be very much they now.
