DISHWASHER
SAVED FORTUNE
ON Sl2 A WEEK
Never Earned More than Two
~ Dollars a Day, But
Saved $12,5OO

A dishwasher who died recently &C
Albany, New York, left an estate VAL
ued at $I2,500. He never earned moro
than $12 a week. Now an income Of
$12 a week, IL saved in its entirety
years. Out Of $l2 a week the dish
washer had to live. But out of that
sum he succeeded in saving. He saved
steadily, something out OF every pay
envelope. And the first savings, laid
aside in the hard early days when his
pay was frequently less than $12 .
week, were well invested. Soon they
began to earn something OF themselves,
In interest, for the patient, hard.Work.
ing plodder.
The dishwasher was no financier.
He undoubtedly missed opportunities
for investment that would have in
creased his savings vastly. But he was
steady and sure. and he accumulated
enough to insure himself against ad-
versity. He had something solid and
substantial to show for his years OF
patient effort. And he was forced to
study the investment OF his savings
carefully to insure their safety.
Today the government has provided
the means for enabling every small
saver to invest his savings, however
small, and to put them at work earn
ing money, at an attractive rate Of in.
terest. From the dishwasher up. In
the scale, OF financial ratings, every In
diyidual can now place his savings in
War Savings Stamps, guaranteed by
the government, and earning interest
at the rate OF per cent compounded
quarterly. II the dishwasher had had
this opportunity his $4,000 would un-
doubtedly have grown to a great deal
more. Buy War Savings Stamps every
pay day. ..... 49,

To Preserve China.

Many lover of fine china has been
heartbroken to discover her choice din
ner or tea set lined with hairlike
cracks. Hot tea or chocolate poured
into dainty cups cracks them instantly.
A Chinese merchant gave this bit of
information when rare tea set was
purchased from him. Before using
delicate china place II in a pan OF
cold water, Let IT come gradually to
the boil and allow the china to remain
in the water till cold" This tempers
the china, and it is capable of with
standing the sudden expansion caused
by the heat. There is no need OF re-
peating the treatment for long time ~

Flower Show Old institution.

The flower shows of English villages
have an ancient origin, though few
people may ever stop to give the mat
ter thought. The ancestry OF the
floral fete reaches back to the days OF
Ovid, the poet. AS for when flower
shows were first held in England, It
canpot be certainly known, but 1t is a
fact that if they did not actually in-
troduce them, the worsted manufac-
turers from Flanders, fleeing the
wrath of Philip and Alva, in 1867, gave
a FLIP to the practice. To these peo-
pie English gardens of Elizabeth's
time owed such favorites as the gilly-
flower and the carnation.

KEEP A HOUSEHOLD BUDGET
Practically Impossible to Run Home
Without Employment of Good
Business Methods.

II must be admitted that business
system is desirable in the home, for
the very good and simple reason that.
manifestly you cannot carry on sue
cessfully any kind Of business without
more or less bookkeeping, writes Carl
Marshall in Thrift. But often you will
hear some easy-going housekeeper say:
That's too much trouble; / have
enough other things to do without
bothering with accounts. Besides,
what's the use? 1t costs you just SO
much to live anyway, and keeping &C
counts won't make the amount any
less"
Lazy or inefficient folk are seldom at
a loss for self-justification of this sort.
Some Of us can remember the old
fashioned country storekeeper who
used to spend most OF his time sitting
on box whiting or gossiping with
the loafers when he should have been
studying his business This cheerful
soul held the same views as the slack
housekeeper.
But we do not see much more of
this old-fashioned, happy-go-lucky
country merchant. He has long ago
been put out Of business by his enter
prising competitor who learned the
value Of good bookkeeping. ~
