Dirty Windows
Help Bank Roll
A REAL BUSINESS.

IN a middle-sized town in Gen.
traI Illinois there us a boy who
makes it his business to get an
order from every housewife-or
nearly every one-in the neigh
borhood to wash windows. -
His working outfit consists of
an old step-ladder he found in
the basement of his home, tin
pail, for water, a set of drying
rags that won't lose any lint,
window cleaner with a rubber
edge on 1t, sponge, a piece of
chamois skin and bottle Of am
monia- He always put a little
ammonia IN the water.
Fifteen cents a window is his
price, but IL the window is to be
cleaned on one side only, he
charges 10 cents.
About once a month, and seme-
times oftener, especially after a
few days of hard rain, this boys
customers ask him to wash their
windows.
In this way he is making all
his spending and banking money.
and business is good all the year
round.

Who Was st. Patrick?

He was the patron saint of
Ireland. and 1t is said, one of
the earliest teachers of Chris
tianity the Irish had. He was
born in a small village in
Scotland in 372.
Why today, the 18th of
March, should be observed in
his honor is uncertain. There
once was a dispute about the
date of his birth, some saying
it was the Sth Of March and
some the 9Th. So the two were
added together, giving the
18th. Others say that he died
on that day in 454.
