NOT QUITE TO HIS TASTE

The man who dotted on bear
looked up, saw an immense grizzly

took him and said to the fugitive as
he came up:

NEVER TOO LATE TO START
Financial independence Can Usually
Be Achieved, Even Though One
May Begin Badly.

1t may be started in a general but
positive way that nothing was ever ac-
cOmplished without q start. If false
start be had-and many who read this
have probably made false starts-it is
better than no start, in the same way
that some Of our ancestors worshiped
miscellaneous gods and with feet of
clay out Of mistaken but good inten-
tons, Victor DeVilliers writes in the
Magazine of Wall Street. They made
start and meant well, and those prin-
ciples bring results. The courageous
ones who will face the starting post
are sure to finish reasonably close to
the goal by will, patience and study.
Aiming at financial independence at
6O' should commence at 20 years Of
age, If possible. If the investor has
missed his chance of commencing so
early he should begin "as soon as pos
sible." 1t is never too late to begin,
as the handicap Of hardness may be
overcome by the sure, swift work of
compound interest, which once started
on its journey goes on interminably,
ever growing larger and stronger as
the years go by.

SILK SHIRT CRAZE
FOLLOWS HIGH PAY
(St. Paul Pioneer Press).

The development Of a nationwide
craze for luxuries Is reflected in the
phenomenal demand for silk shirts
that has swept through the country
this summer Merchants and manu-
facturers declare 1t is typical of the
desire for spending money that has
seized the people of the United States,
especially the laboring classes. This
new craze is not confined to any par
ticular locality, but is general through
out the United States. Men who
have never before worn silk shirts
are buying them this season, not only
one, or two at time, but in half dozen
lots and the consumption has been
so great that the local market is al
most bare of stocks.
Discussing the new craze, Bruck.
representing large silk company of
New York, that manufactures extern
sive lines of silk shifting, said:
Workmen Make Money.
This sudden craze for silk shirts is
due to the fact that workingmen are
making vastly more money than ever
before. Wartime wages has filled their
pockets and they have been enabled to
realize some Of their long cherished
desires, one of which was to wear silk
shirts.
Men who few years ago complain
ed because they could not get cotton
shirt for less than a dollar are now
buying three and four silk shirts a sea-
son and paying from SO to $14 apiece
for them.
Even the farm laborer is wearing
silk, Dealers from out Of town tell me
of calls for silk shirts from men on the
farms, and say it is the first time since
they have been in business this has
occurred.
Naturally. this tremendous demand
has had it's effect on supply, with the
resulting decrease in prices.
And the demand does not seem tc
be just a seasonable one. Already we
are besieged with inquiries for goods
to be delivered in the spring. Prices
then will be higher than they are
now.
