SHOWING GROWTH OF DOLLAR
How Benjamin Franklln's Request Of
$4,000 to Boston Has Increased
In Century.

How the dollar invested works for
the Individual himself has been best
illustrated by that first great Amerl-
can teacher Of thrift, Benjamin Frank
lin, remarks Worlds Work. In 1901
he bequeathed f1,000 to the common
wealth Of Massachusetts and to the
city of Boston as mark of his appre-
citation for having appointed him as
agent in England at the Handsome"
salary of $1,000. And to make his be-
quest really valuable, with his great
foresight Franklin provided In his will
that this Fl 900 should be put out at 8
per cent interest for 100 years; that at
the end Of that time 31-131 of the fund
accumulated should again be put out
ut interest for another hundred years
and then tho fund be divided one
fourth to Boston and three-fourths to
the state.
Let us see how well that E1,000 Of
Franklin's has worked. At the end of
the first hundred years 1t had grown to
$431 ,3S3.62. 1t was then divided In &C
cordance with the will; 1920, 800.48
was set aside for public work" and
$102,0S5,15 was started on Its course
of earning interest for another hun
dred years. That was In 1901. On
Jan. l, 1918 this sum had grown to
$207 ,S05.15 and at this rate Of In
crease tho fund should amount to at
least 100000 when the second Pc
Rod is completed, and may be consid-
erably more.

CANADA's FOURTH OF JULY
British North America Act Signed
March 20, 1867, Together With
Four Other Bills.

Although the Dominion of Canada
did not come into actual existence UNI
til July 1, 1867, the Dominion may
be said to have been born when, on
March 20, 1867, royal assent was given
to the British North America act,
which created the Dominion, and
which had been passed by the House
Of commons in February. July /, 1867,
Is considered the birthday of the Do
minion, and as such is celebrated as
Dominion day.
The journal entry of March 20, 1867,
states that the commons were sum
moned by the yeoman usher of the
black rod to the chamber of the
house Of lords to hear the royal as
sent given TO five bills the fourth of
which was the British North American
act.
The other four bills which re-
ceived the royal assent at the same
time were supply bill, dog tax bill,
bill about marriages of British sub
jects In Odessa. and London poor

Even thermometers become old, and
consequently inaccurate with age, mer-
curial Instruments reading too high
and spirit Instruments too low. In the
former case the bulb appears to shrink,
thus forcing the quicksilver too far up
the stem. This gradual shrlnkage Is
supposed to be due to the fact that the
external pressure on the bulb may be
considerably higher than the internal
pressure, the air as far as possible hay
Ing been removed before the glass is

Strive Always for Ideal.

There's satisfaction In knowing
you have something worth while to live
by. 1t just naturally stiffens your
backbone and gives clearness to your
vision. Why, the very idea makes you
stronger and you want to try yourself
In things that really count. The re-
suits may seldom be to your taste, but
they are infinitely above the taste Of
others. It's the loftlness of the Ideal
that leads you to see them as ordinary.
That means you viii not be satisfied.

resent you. So you win strive to offer
