Stories That Recall Others


Lucille was sent to neighbours to get
some eggs. The nieghbor informed her
that the hens were moulting and she
could not let her have any.
When she reached home, Lucille said {:

eggs because her hens are whiting"

All sorts of funny things are told in

swINDLTNa OPERATIONS.

Long before one swindle is cleared up
it has been a matter of experience that
others are being revealed with unhap-
Ply results. 1t is one thing which it
seems hard to correct and in spite Of
the losses ustained by the victims
those who set out to get rich quick off
of the hard earned dollars of the pub
lie have little difficulty in finding fer
tile field for operations.
Not only have many been caught in
the failures of a number of bucket shops
but also in the stock swindles which
have been staged throughout the coun-
try. Although it IS not to be imagined
that all have been caught some idea
can be gained Of the extensive activi-
ties by the fact that the federal court
dockets are clogged with such cases and
that something like 900 individuals are
awaiting trial charged with the misuse
of the mailg in carrying on their opera
tons
Such conditions cannot be disclosed
people against the countless number Of
svindles that are put forth to trap
them. Repeated instances indicate that
the bigger the bait the quicker the
crowd falls for it, even though 1t might
be expected that the huge profits would
be sufficient to arouse suspicion.
Unfortunately there are those who be-
lieve they can beat any scheme, who
figure that everything stated in folders
and letters can be relied upon, who act
ually think that favor is being done
them in being allowed to contribute
their dollars for some hole in the ground
or a gilded paving stone and who fee
that through some hidden power such
schemes as they enter without a thor
ough investigation are going to lead
the Inslong the tabled path to quick
riches and life of ease forevermore.
1t is when the awakening comes thai
thought is given for the first time Il
the possibility that something might BIZ
wrong, that the promises were unreas

| destined to end in a colossal failure
! With federal courts clogged with jus
such cases how soon will it be befor'
others will find that they have walked
into similar money wasting propose
tons? 1t is hard for some to convinc
I themselves in advance that they don
like such open and shut swindles.

BEDROOM FURNISHINGS

metal single bed is desirable for a
young girl A slipon cover of unbleach

bed needs at least one pillow to make

tress, should be protected by a thin
close fitting washable cover between
the ticking and the pillow case. The

should be chosen with care.

Perhaps it can best be described by
calling it the executive offices of the

called the bump of classification. IL you

two days, giving him sufficient time to
make all preparations for the placing Of
Lady Jane on the throne.
The scheme worked all right for the
time being. and although Lady Jane OPP

barge at Sion, landed at the queens s1air

DRESSING TABLE

An improvised dressing table can be
made by hanging mirror over a small
table. This is; to be preferred to dress
ing tables with f1ounces of cretonne
that collect dust. A bureau or chest
of drawers is needed for storing cloth
ing and personal belongings. Bureau
and table covers should be as simple
as possible and always fresh and clean.
If there is room for only one chair
it should be comfortable one.
