NO. 1F2-How can a poor man get
(By Samuel o. Rice, Educational Di-
rector Investment Bankers Association
Of America).
Has your church, your lodge, your
labor union, or your alma mater any
invested funds? What kind of Sc
curities make up their investments :?
Have you life insurance? Ask your
life insurance company what kind of
investment securities it holds. None
Of these, you will find, are at ali
likely to be wildcat stocks or fake
oil securities. They may contain oil
stocks, but they will be the stocks
of reputable, established oil compan-
les with a fine earning record. Most
of these investments will be in sound
bonds and seasoned stocks or good
mortgages. They will have been Sc
lected mostly by reputable, investment
experts and will be sound and de-
sirable.
If you find it puzzling to select
the right kind of investments, consid-
err the foregoing as guide. 1t is
practical for most every man and
woman. A once-poor preacher in a
Minnesota city church followed such
guide and now has substantial
fund that yields enough for all he
needs. At a recent meeting of the
elders of his church he announced
that the church owes him nothing for
his services so long as he lives and
that at his death his investments are
To he made an endowment fund in
memory Of his wife.

More than twenty years ago, when
the minister was just beginning to
save a little money from his salary,
his wife died. That left, as his only
immediate responsibility, his church
work, to which he devoted more at
tention than his congregation ever re-
quired. Although his salary was not
large and although he gave literally
to charity, the minister found his saw
ings growing. He consulted 49, the
church officers who invested the
church's funds. With their advice he
made similar investments of his
small savings. His average annual
return from his investments has been
added to the modestly increasing prin-
cipal has built substantial fund suf-
ficient now to pay the minister's SAL

Compound interest is one of the
greatest inventions in the world. 1t
is a sure device for creating com
petence, fund for comfortable old
age, or large or small fortunes. It
was the DEVICE this Minnesota min
lister used. He put small savings into
safe investments. The interest the
investment securities yielded was put
back into sound securities. Thousands
of wealthy men have done and are
doing the same thing. There is no
patent on compound interest, anyone
can use it. 1t works with the same
efficiency for the poor as for the
rich. Yet compound interest has ac-
cumulated more fortunes than have
patent rights, oil wells, or steel mills.
If you have difficulty in getting ahead,
get acquainted with the power Of
compound interest to accumulate mon

CHAPTER XII
Friends From tho East.


Three days after her return to the
ranch Madeline could not discover any
physical discomfort as a reminder Of
her adventurous experiences. If 1t had
not been fer the quiet and persistent
guardianship Of her cowboys she might
almost have forgotten Don Carlos and
the raiders. Madeline was assured of
the splendid physical fitness to which
this ranch life had developed her, and
that she was assimilating something
Of the Western disregard Of danger
A hard ride, an accident, day In the
sun and dust, an adventure with out
laws-these might once have been
matters Of large import, but now for
Madeline they were in order with an
the rest Of her changed life.
There was never day that some
thing interesting was not brought to
her notice. Sillwell, who had cease
lessly reproached himself for riding
away the morning Madeline was cap
tured, grew more like an anxious par
ent than a faithful superintendent He
was never at ease regarding her unless
he was near the ranch or had left
Stewart there or else Nels and Nick
Steele. Naturally he trusted more to
Stewart than to any one else.
Miss Majesty, it's sure amazin'
strange about Gene" said the old cat
tleman, as he tramped into Madeline's
office.
"What's the matter now~ she In
Quired.
"Wal, Gene has rustled off into the
mountains again. He's sneaked of,
an Nels, who was down to the lower
trail, saw him meet somebody that
looked like Padre Marcos. Wal, went
down to the church, and, sure enough,
Padre Marcos is gone. What do you
think of that, Miss Majesty2"
"Maybe Stewart Is getting religious"
laughed Madeline. 'Let him take his
mysterious trips into the mountains.
Here, Stillwell, I have news for you
that may give you reason. for worry.

ter, with party Of friends, Is coming

and one of them is an English lord.
Let me read you few extracts from
my mail"
Madeline took up her sisters letter
with strange sensation Of how cas-
lily sight Of crested monogram and
scent of delicately perfumed paper
could recall the brilliant life she had
given up. She scanned the pages Of
beautiful handwriting. Helen seldom
wrote letters, and she never read any
thing, not even popular novels Of the
day. She was as absolutely ignorant
Of the West as the Englishman, who,
she said, expected to hunt buffalo and
fight Indians. Moreover, there was
satiric note In the letter that Made
line did not like, and which reused
her spirit.
When she finished reading aloud a
few paragraphs the old cattleman
snorted and his face grew redder,

the name of Don Carlos revived keen
curiosity in her and realization of her

For a little while she seemed to be

She could not believe the evidence Of

her people, her friends, ever believe

1t been an instinct which had impor-
tuned her to save this man when he
lay Ill and hopeless In the shack at
Chiricahua? In helping him had she
hedged round her forces that had just
that, more than life was to her? She
believed 80.
A heavy languor, like blanket, be-
gan to steal upon her. She wavered
and drifted. With the last half-con-
scious sense Of muffled throb at her
ear, a something intangibly sweet,
deep-toned, and strange, like distant
calling bell, she fell asleep with her
head on Stewards breast.
