the dust of my BOSOM!

From the dust of my BOSOM!
This is indeed a noble and touching
memorial stone, and one of which Am
erica may we'll be proud, for which it
may we'll be grateful for all time to
come. Ann Rutledge's death made a
profound impression upon the young
Lincoln, carving and chiseling his
heart and mind profoundly. The Ma
ton will ever be interested in the in
fuences that moulded that great heart,
and chief among them, certainly, was
the death of this young woman, TO-
whom this votive stone carved with
imperishable words is now placed.
This grave, with that of Lincoln's
mother, his birthplace and the house
in which he lived at Springfield, will
always be shrines of patriotic memo
ries and pilgrimages. And none Is
more nobly marked than this.-Mln-

Greater Love
Hath No Man,

| love my scrub cow. She gives
me employment every day in the year.
She consumes my hay and grain, and
grows fat and sleek. She is a thing
of beauty, though a burden forever.
To produce milk and butterfat would
detract from her physical beauty,
therefore, it is unreasonable to expect
it of her. She helps to reduce my
income tax.
I love my scrub COW. She is a
luxury. Dairymen are entitled to
luxuries as we'll as other people. My
neighbor tells me to sell her to the
butcher but my neighbor is a hard
hearted man, so is the butcher. The
official tester says that the profits
from three of my best producers will
keep her in comfort, so why should
I worry.
I love my scrub cow. 1t requires
much time to feed her, but very little
time to milk her. My banker says
that the small amount of milk she con-
tributes can justly be called "the milk
of human Kindness" for it is human
kindness that allows her to exist.
Even Parson Jones was heard to re-
mark that, ga greater love hath no
man than he who wears his young life
away to support a scrub cow, ex-
pecting no reward, not ever the re-
spect of real dairymen." | love my
scrub cow. Who can doubt it. E.

Ann Rutledge's Grave,

One of the noblest of American
poems has just been carved on a gig
antic boulder placed on the grave of
Ann Rutledge, the girl whom Lincoln
loved in his youth, and who was sepa-
rated from him by death. In a recent
Springfield, ILL.,, Sunday Journal,
Frank Waller Allen tells of a visit to
this grave, which is in the Oakland
Cemetery at Petersburg. The poem,
as it stands on the boulder at the
grave is as follows:
Out Of me, unworthy and unknown,
The vibrations of deathless music;
"With malice towards none, with char
ity for ALL"
Out of me forgiveness of millions to-
ward millions,
And the beneficent face of a nation
Shining with justice and truth.
I am ANN RUTLEDGE who sleeps
beneath these weeds.
Beloved of ABRAHAM LINCOLN,
Welded to him, not through union,
But through separation.
Bloom forever, O Republic,

Needs A System.

A good many people these days are
doing serious thinking. They have dis
covered that those who saved money
during the flush times are bulwarked
against the Universities of times not
flush; and they are wondering why
they didn't save, and how to go about
it.
Well, the way to go about it is to do
it. But like everything else, it needs
systematic doing. The one best way
is to set aside a fixed amount out of
every pay envelope, and then watch
the leaks. And the best way, if not
the only way, to watch the leaks is by
adopting a home budget plan and keep
ing books on income and outgo.
Most people have had this expert
ence. Starting at fifteen dollars a
week, say, they lived on fifteen dollars.
When they were raised to twenty, they
lived on twenty. When it got up to
twenty-five, they lived on that. And
on up the line. Whatever they took
in, they put out; and what became of
the additions that should have made a
surplus was a mystery.
But If they would watch expendi-
lures it would cease to be a mystery.
The only way to watch expenses is to
keep books. For that purpose there
are a number of home budget plans ex-
tant, but the best one that has come
to U notice is that put out by the

Menter Company of New York, which
has forty credit-plan clothing houses
in various cities, and which teaches
thrift to it's patrons by the use of this
budget book and the good advice it
contains. The title page thus dis
closes the purpose of the book: "How
to make your income go further; how
to stop wasting nickels and dimes;
how to have a bank account and many
other things that you can have only
by budgeting your income"
The superiority of this budget book
over others, aside from the practical
advice on saving it contains and its
offer of prizes for those who make the
best use of the budget book, is that it
makes possible in a small compass a
much minuter detailing OF expendl-
lures than most such books. This IS
important because it is in the details
that waste is to be looked for, and
waste must be located before it can
be stopped.
Almost anybody can save money.
What most people lack is the will to
save. Given that, then the adoption
Of the plan of saving a definite amount
weekly or monthly, supplemented by a
budget system of household and per-
sonal accounts, will make the road
clear.
And this is a timely subject because
it must be clear to everybody today
that those who are riding most COM

justment are those who IN times OF
