boarding and Saving

The hoarder gathers money to withdraw it
from circulation The saver puts the difference
between his legitimate expenses and his earnings
in the bank to be used for business purposes.
The former is menace to the financial and
business interests of the nation; the latter a
positive boon.
1t is estimated that dollar in the bank
changes hands about 20 times a year, pays 20
people, does $50 worth of business, of which
about $12 goes for wages and helps make the
country prosperous.
If this be true, it is easy to see that an idle
dollar, hidden in a sock tin can, does abso-
lutely no good for itself or the community.
Placed in a savings account, it would draw inter-
est semi-annually, and participate in all the func-
tons of liquid dollar The owner of a hidden
dollar is as useless to the community as the
money which he keeps out of circulation.
A money hoarder partakes of the negative
qualities of the dollar he hides. Seldom is he a
publi-spirited man, keenly alive to the needs of
his community, willing to cooperate in its i'm
provement, unselfish in the application of his
time and service to the betterment of the city
which is his home.

Whooping cough is the mean
est" disease that childhood is
heir to. While rarely fatal in
itself, except to children under
two years of age, still it hangs on
so long-the coughing paroxysms
are SO violent, preventing proper
sleep and digestion-that when
the disease does disappear it
leaves the child weakened and
run down. In addition the
violent coughing racks and strains
the air passages and after re-
covery this irritation frequently
remains. sss-"'
I During this period of conval-
escence the child should be most
carefully watched until full
strength is restored and the air
passages regain their normal tone.
A prominent authority even goes
so far as to say-"There is more
criminal neglect in connection
with whooping cough than with
any other disease"
While the disease IS active,
Vick's VapoRub usually helps to
lessen the violence of the cough
ing, but it is during conval-
escence that Vicks is most val
liable.

Philosophy From Poor Devil

Leon Westmoreand, of Boonville, Arkansas
may not realize it, but he has found philosophy
of life that thousands of men, more successful
financially, might envy. He calls himself poor
devil" but in the current issue of Forbes Maya
zine On. W he shows that he has wealth beyond
measure, as the following bits taken at random
will show:
1T is not everyone that has made a success
financially that has succeeded in life. Some of
the most successful people that ever lived have
never been out of debt"
Don't let money-making be your only ambi-
ton. Make money if you can but if you fail do
not make those around you miserable by grumb-
ling about those who have"
Don't kick about money makers and hinder
them from making it, but try to get in on the
endless chain it forms and get some of it's bene-
fits"
While thousands are kicking about the rail-
roads this man has very wholesome point of
view. "Show me prosperous railroad, he says,
land will show you prosperous people living
along it's line. Let railway system pay large
dividend and it makes thousands want to invest
in it. the money pours in and the line is extended
and another endless chain is started another
fountain begins to flow from which all may drink
who will.
Here's food for the thoughtful.
