Common Sense
BY ]. ]. MUNDY.
Watch the Pennies.

1t is the same old story of disap-
pointment that you can save so little
as you look over the past year.
You think you have been economi-
cal, but why could you not keep to
the saving plan you mapped out for
the last year?
In some ways you have considered
yourself actually penurious and felt
you were denying yourself great
deal.
Then sometimes you have gone to
the other extreme and been extrava-
CANT and foolish in your expendi-
ture.
No saving is possible without self
denial.
You have not spent large sums at
any one time, you.are unable to- see
how it could result in such loss OF
savings, for each month the amount
you have to lay away dwindles.
1t is the small daily outlays that
tell the story.
Ten, IS and 80 cents here and
there.
The pennies count big when you
spend even a few every day.
Watch the little sums you spend
and the big ones will grow from the
small amounts saved thinkingly.

ton over which the department to-

days.

quoted as follows:

Unemployment In
England Problem
Labor Circles Claim 1000, 900
People Now Are Out of
Work.

London, Dec. 16.-Unemployment
in Great Britain has presented a
serious problem, which government,
municipal and labor organization
heads are seeking to solve, The ad-
vent of winter has made the situa-
ton more urgent and nearly every
trade is affected, 1t was said today.
Official statistics, admittedly incom-
plete, show 100000 out of work, with
clerks and middle class people af-
fected equally with laborers. Labor
circles declared 100000 are unem-
ployed and that counting dependents
from 100000 to 100000 persons
are affected, large proportion being
former soldiers.
Among labor organizations and
municipalities there is a tendency to
let the government solve the prob
lem, though some localities are plan
ming public improvements.
Thomas ]. Mcnamara, minister of
labor, has a plan to employ $4,000
men in constructing new buildings.
Should the unions, which in the past
have opposed cooperation Of or
ganized and unorganized workers in
needed building work, reject the
plan, Mr.. Mcnamara hinted the
government would take some action.

So accustomed are we to judg-

implanted that the mention of a

is nothing more than the pigment

of light inward and makes it

Strictly speaking, the real eye

ina is extremely sensitive, and
an excess of light of any kind
will render it practically useless
for the time being. The glare
OF the sun, or any other extreme

the portion of the tetina which it
touches, and this effect will re-
main until the body has had time
to renew the surface. The black
