WEBSTER HELPED OUT CLIENT
Great Lawyer Evid" Ntiy Possessed
Kindness of Heart as Well as
a MatchIess Brain.

One day o gentleman of Boston, who
was sorely disheartened by the failure
of a company for whose debts he was
responsible, called on Daniel Webster
and asked his legal advice. He told
Webster Of his difficulties, received
his advice without charge and left
But at the door he heard Webster call
ing him. He stopped and turned to
see Webster coming toward him with
his pocketbook In his hand, saying:
ut seems to me, my dear sir, IL /
understood rightly, you are entirely
without funds. Is that so?'
The client replied that he was in
deed penniless, and then, of course, ex-
pected a demand for some security for
the time as well as the advice he had
just engaged Webster to employ in his
behalf. Instead Of that demand, how
ever, Webster kindly remarked as he
handed his client $500:
swell there, take that. It's all I
have by me now. I wish It were more,
and, If you are aver able, you must
pay it back to me-"

occasion Sunday to make an announce

season. The bedrooms are not over
sized, the two front rooms being 10
feet 0 inches by II feet, and the two
rear rooms, 10 feet 8 inches by II
feet 9 inches.
In the rear of the lot is a frame
garage built to accommodate two cars.
One section can be used by the own
er and the other rented out. AS the
house is built on a corner lot, the
expense of a long driveway is not
necessary, A short concrete drive
way is built from the street to the
garage.
There are many features about this
pretty home that will appeal strongly
to the man Of family. Now that rents
are soaring, many people are plan
ming to build their own homes. This
attractive design should prove inspi-
rational for those who are seeking
definite ideas on home building.
