THE PHILOSOPHY OF THE DENvER KID"

You will never find the Denver Kid" listed with
Thoreau or any of the famous philosophers OF past or
contemporaneous schools. but he sheds his radiance in
his own small circle and he never fails 70 illumine or lead
his kindly light hither and yon. The Denver Kid believes
In the philosophy of the Golden Rule. He isn't much big
ger than a midget Jockey and we found him in the smok-
ing compartment breaking lances with an avowed boil
shevik who ranted and raved while the Denver Kid"
stabbed his theories with his quiet philosophy. He had
his own ideas of right and wrong. and n the world we're
made up of Denver Kids the sun would shine for humans
he could not agree with. A successful manufacturer on a
small scale. he had ran Iife's gamut. When but 10 years
of age, he lived in Denver and was earning his way TO a
university education. There he shot away his compe-
tence and his university education at the gaming table
At that time Denver was a gamblers paradise. Where
others would have succumbed the kid left It. He rode
he blind baggage to Chicago and thence to Boston. He
worked for $40 a week until he had saved up a small
stake and lost It all. by an accident. Returning 10 Chi
cago he worked assiduously until he had built up his own
business. He is happily married and a success. While
on his first trip to a famous Indiana springs he fed his
mind with what-think you-the North American Re
view. One night he visited a famous casino and for the
first time in 25 years he saw the old familiar wheel and
the black and red numbers and the little ivory ball. The
old fever was still in his blood and tho deft croupier
gathered in the clicking chips until the little philosopher
and his money were soon parted It was after this that
he grew reminiscent and told his story and he went back
home to his happy family reading his North American
Review, rejoicing that he lived where roulette could not
lure him. Good old Denver Kid! He spoke with sweet
ness and tolerance of the failings OF others because Of his
own experiences. Woman to him was discussed only
with reverence. His religion is charity to all and malice
toward none. The life of the Denver Kid is its own

Advantage in Owning Home.

Aside from the manifest advantage
of owning a house when houses are at
a premium, the family which OWNS its
own home strikes roots deeper into the
soil than do those who move from one
part of the city to another as convent
ence Dictates Their children 20 to the
same school and the same Sunday
school year after year Teachers and
friends have time to grow interested in
them and to make plans for their inn
provement or pleasure. The heads of
the family take their duties as citizens
seriously. because bad government
reacts ON them directly in the form of
increased taxes which they see and
feel. OF course, the rentpayer pays
taxes Indirectly. but so many other
elements complicate the rate of rent
ais that he hardly thinks of taxation
as one of them The home owner, too,
takes a greater interest in local inn
provements. because he expects to
stay in the reighhorhood long enough
TO get the benefit of them. Home own
ing involves responsibilities. but the
man who faces responsibilities is us
uaIly stronger man, a better huS-
band and better citizen than the
man who lodges them.
