50 small it didn't even permit him to
buy his luncheon. So his good wife
put one up for him every morning
As dessert she used to give HIM a
piece OF homemade crumb cake, Of
which he was very fond. One day the
man didn't feel hungry, and gave his
cake to ii fellow worker, who, in turn,
divided it with Il friend. The two
liked it so well that they offered to
buy Il piece every day. On hearing OF
this. the wife suggested that the hus-
band take the cake along every day,
saying:
''What you get will pay our in
| surancc.'
Before long the fame of the cake
spread until every nan in the shop
insisted upon getting a piece for his
luncheon. As Il result, the wife
opened IL place to serve coffee and
cake at noon. She was swamped with
patrons from various factories. The
husband finally gave up his job to
help his wife. At the end of the first
year their profits more than doubled
his earnings for the previous two
years.
Now, had the same man tried to
open IL restaurant at random i'll some
other part OF the city it's very likely
that he would have failed. With the
cake. however. he had a definite idea
to back up. Had the average man
been asked to bring extra pieces Of
cake, he would have looked upon it
as too much bother, never dreaming
that he was passing up an oppor-
tunity to get out of the rut.
An idea doesn't always hold the
same amount of value or offer an
equal chance of success to everyone.
What may appear to be absolutely
worthless to Tom may loom up as a
sure-firc thing to Dick. Not infre-
qucntly, success depends upon what
you tackle and how you go after it.
A multimillionaire is justified in play
ing with ideas that require a fortune
for experimental purposes, but a man
with only a few dollars will do well
to expcnd his time and energy on
ideas within his reach. 1t is all right
to invest some spare time i'll costly

Some ideas need big financial back

and energy. One idea may look like
a sure-firc hit and another may carry
a certain amount of gambling ele-

take reasonable chances.
The fact that others give q certain

SO much depends on having red

standing in your own way. You
are blocking your own progress.

You can remedy that condition

keep it up for awhile. Your blood
will become nourished. Pepto-
Mangan makes red blood corpus

strong power Of resistance. In
stead of standing in your own
way, you will push yourself ahead
because of great vitality.
But be sure you get the gen

that the name is on the package.

"Well," .said Nick, at wasn't hard

more easily when you were away than
at any other time. But 1t was hard
not to let you know a word of what

"for can hardly wait TO see it. And
it's a good idea about having 1t with
more actors and actresses and making

So Nick and Nancy ran out of the
room, and after much whispering Nick
appeared before Daddy and said in a
loud and magnificent voice: Ladies

and Nancy.
''The first act is called, why Santa
Claus made the first Children's Christ
mas The second act is called why
the Children Love Santa Claus And
the third act is called, why Santa
Claus Loves the Children"
Then Nick and Nancy began to act
out the play for Daddy. They had to
take many parts, such as when Nick
acted Santa Claus (which Nancy In
sisted he should do all the time) she
had to be as many children as posi-
Die, and Nick, too, acted the parts Of
some of the children.

seen taking a walk. Wherever he
walked he saw children and wherev-

and talked to them. The more he |

them, and finally he decided he would
