ties fM he got d place.
The average man might have be
stirred himself to repay this kindness
but even the decent natured. men arr
apt to value at nothing that which
they get for nothing. The girl who
gives freely OF her affection, and
throws in money with the bargain, Is
usually regarded as nothing
q. Not only so, but in supplying z
man with money d girl robs him OF
the best part OF hismanhood, and very
often, he turns against her just be-
u she has so robbed him. "
There are, of course, some circum.
stances in which a girl may wisely
offer a little monetary assistance to
her sweetheart, but even then, In
stead of buying an extra supply OF
affection from him, she is running the
risk Of being forced to receive imi-
tation love instead OF the genuine
article. %@##H b
Take the true case Of a young girl
who was not particularly pretty or
attractive, but always had plenty of
men to take her out. Yet once
did she become engaged. Her friends
could not understand why, until 1t
came out that she had always paid
for her share of the outing, and kept
the various young fellows supplied
with cigarettes, ties, socks and other
things dear to. the heart of men.
She "a trying to buy a lover, but
in reality vas only paying heavy in
stallments on e. broken heart.
Real men don't use the frail shout
ders of a woman in order to climb
life's ladder of success, They glory
in feeling that they have done it all
themselves. Even the worst of men
will shrink when a girl first offers
them money, but the taking of 1t Is,
unfortunately, a habit that Is soon
acquired and very hard to break.
How often do We heal of lovers
sWindling their girls out Of quite large
sums Of money and then leaving them
in the lurch? Do We not wonder how
on earth a girl can be so foolish as
to lend her savings? One need not
wonder, ono n knows the trick.
The mar swindler who is out to get
money generally has some in hand,
which he uses as a halt. He will take
a girl out; if he finds she has any
capital worth having, he begins to
splash his dollar or two about, and,
without actually saying so, gives the
impression that he has plenty.
Then when she has grown fond Of
him, and he Is SURE of his power over
her. he tells some plausible tale
either his firm has forgotten his quar-
terly check, or the bank is closed, or
perhaps he will say he has just
bought a house. This last makes her
heart beat with hope.
"Oh, I can let you have some money.
Do let me lend you some," says the
girl, thinking she will be endeared to
him by her generosity, and also glad
to help the man she loves.
Much depends on how much he
hopes to get eventually whether or
not he accepts her first offer, but he
generally accepts loans from her until
she has nothing left, and then he
leaves her.
So much for the rogue man.
Since the fellow who Is really worth
while is also apt to become democrat
lied by being financed by his sweet
heart, the very crIelest thing she can
do is either to offer money or encour-
age him to ask for it.. The three
things we cannot buy are health, hap
piness and love.

Size of an Atom.

During a lecture delivered before
the Royal society In London Sir Oliver
Lodge gave a striking illustration of
the incredible minuteness of the atom.
The amount of gold in sea water, al
though very small, seem considerable
when stated in atoms, for a single
drop Of sea water contains so, 900, 900
atoms of gold. That stupendous
figure, however, indicates merely one
fftieth of a grain in a ton of sea
water, and it would take loo, ZOO, 900
atoms to be visible under a microscope

ever, life insurance has become a
thing of science, and intelligent indi-
viduals no longer need be sold the
idea Of protecting their families
against the economic risk of an un-
timely death. The agent of to-day, in
the comparatively few cases in which
he lives up to his possibilities, is a
service man, more concerned with pro-
fessional advice than with making an
Immediate sale. The ideal agent is one
who, when consulted, will say to a
client when the facts justify it,.
considering your income and your
family needs, am of the opinion that
you carry all the protection that you
can afford. Do not take out any more
until your salary is increased, and then
buy the cheapest form of insurance.
Such an agent will win confidence
which will bring rich returns. On the
man with power to reason the agent
ought not find it necessary to uree til q
need OF insurance, but should feel free
to concentrate on the kind and amount
that best fit the needs of the client.
The uninsured individual merelytcar-
ries on his own shoulders the econnn;c

The Motor and Accessory Manufac-
turers Association will convene at
Buffalo next Wednesday, Thursday and
Friday to discuss credit problems. A
year ago the members met at Detroit
and expressed sane optimism Their
hopefulness was justified, but their
predictions regarding 1922 trade were
understatements.
There has been much confusion re-
garding automobile credit and alleged
banking discrimination.
The misunderstanding started before
the Federal Reserve banks ,egan, in
November, 1919, to check further infia-
tion by successive increases of the re-
discount rate. Before resorting TO
this expedient. which was delayed to
conform with the policy of the United
States Treasury, the Federal Reserve
Board sought to encourage voluntary
control by suggesting that there were
such things as essential and less essen.
tial loans. The Reserve Board never
attempted to draw the line Of demar-
cation itself, but essays 1T this were
made by amateur economists in the
press and by minor adjuncts Of the Re-
serve system. In this way automobile
loans were characterized as less essen.
tial, but the Reserve Board promptly
repudiated such arbitrary cIassifica-
tions. Most of the Reserva banks ac-
cordingly treated automobile paper
strictly on It's merits and without dis
elimination. The Reserve Board in
tended it's dictum regarding essential
and less essential loans as guide I'd
individuals in borrowing and as an aid
for member bankers who were called
upon to advise their customers. The
distinction was not means as q foot
rule of action for the twelve regional
Federal Reserve banks.
At presen. with the marked recovery
of the present year in the automotive
trade, automobile credit ranks exceed
ingly high in the judgment of money
lenders. Bankers, of course, dsscrimi-
uate between strong, sounaly managed
automobile companies and ths weakly
financed units, but not againgt tbs In.

somnolent customer placed an order
through sleepy broker to- purchase
ten of these bonds at 122. The trans
action went through in the regular way,
and the bonds were to be delivered on
August i, the following day. A few
minutes later the conscious thought
dawned or the broker who bought the
securities that on August the securi-
ties, no longer convertible, would be
worth little more than 1924, instead
of 1929 He went to the broker from
whomJhe bought the bonds and asked
to be excused from the trade. The
seller stood by his guns, and reiterated
pitHessly that contract was a con-
tract.
Tt SO happened that the seller did
not actually possess the bonds, but had
!Scid them short. He tried to borrow
9ten bonds on the floor of sthe Stock
Exchange the next day in the usual
way. Like his customer, he had failed
! to weigh the full significance of the ex-
pirstion of the valuable conversion fea-
ture. To his surprise he found not a
single of these bonds available, as all
the floating supply had been converted
because it was profitable to make the
switch. He started bidding 1os for the
bonds and by points soon carried his
bid up to the 122 mark, which his GUS
toner had paid. No bonds were forth
coming. Realizing that his customer
was in position to turn the tables
en- him and be equally ruthless, he
turned over the technical task Of "buy-
ing IN which amounts to making a
private settlement, to another brokcr.
He had TO pay 1So to be excused from
his contract. His loss amounted rough-
ly to $500. He, too, learned that a
contract is a contract.

rather than devote her surplus Of pro-
duction and interest payment to the
equipment and exploiting of her great
estate at home, there is no question
that America can hold and keep the
position that she now holds as the
center which owns, and can conse-
quently lend, more claims on the
worlds production than any other.
And the Narrower
There is, however, narrower sense
in which the phrase financial center"
is often, perhaps generally, used, and
it is important to be sure in which
sense we are using the phrase when
we discuss the question of the claims
of New York and London as being
Financial centcgs." The ultimate PRO-
vision of capital for the rest of the
world can evidently be best done by
that country, which, owing to produc-
tive activity. sparing consumption or
claims on the production of others for
interest on investments made in the
past, has the largest surplus to place
st the disposal Of borrowers. But
much of the technical business of
financing the worlds trade may be
done, at least for some time, by a
center which is actually a debtor,
owing to it's practice and experience
in handling this kind of business and
owing also to the enormous weight
which custom, tradition and convention
carry in international trade.
