There were three people In the

Joseph Farrell boarded 1t q few
minutes before s o'clock the fol-
lowing morning. OF the three,
one was a girl, and, as Farrell
entered, carrying the souvenirs of
his service-a helmet and gas
mask-she glanced at him with
the interest which the average
civilian manifests In any soldier
obviously just released from
service and homeward bound.
Farrel's glance met hers for an

he returned to stow his impedi-

seat. He was granted an equally

HEARTBROKEN-I believe Il

American prisoners who were

the guard. who killed seven and
wounded sixty. It was ex-

n ONEY-doesn't the word
M have an ugly sound, for all
AVA II is 90 desirable and nee
esasry? Money interests all. How
to make more Of II, save 1t, and
use what we have Of II to good
advantage are problems shared
by practically every one in this
round world.
So when Miss Minnie @. writes
me that she has saved exactly
$4,000 and is tired OF skimping and
saving and is contemplating a real
lark in the form Of a trip to
Europe and do I approve or not.
I try to give the problem a little
special thought. for Miss Minnie's
contemplated step is q serious one.
In the first place, Miss Minnie
, G. is forty-one years old and not
vain enough to think Of marrying
a millionaire some day, and while
she Is q wonderful teacher OF
higher mathematics and Miss Min
ME has not had to go begging for
a Job just yet. she will not al
ways be able to reach and make
a good salary.
Still. isn't It lovely, that touch
of romantic adventure lurking in
the heart OF little Miss c.?
After all. life is short, and
wouldn't you just love to advise
her to 60 ahead and take that
trip to Europe and just give her
self up to the joy Of an adven-
ture she had hitherto only dreamed
of? Yes, but that is not the wise
step for Miss Minnie G.
For when the four thousand Is
gone and the pleasure period Is
over, Il will be found that the
lark was not worth the price.
There will be no money left, and
then the years Of drudgery to &C
cumulate more must begin all
over again.
And il win be harder. for the
memory of luxuries INDUCED in
during the brief period Of ad-
venture will seem al the harder
to relinquish.
No, little Miss G., without q
future more than a good salary
