THROWING MONEY AWAY

THE commercial traveller buying his
I ticket at the station, accidentally
dropped his pOcketbook on the floor
and scattered a handful of silver in all
directions. He thanked me as l re-
turned TO him two or three pieces
which had rolled in my direction, re-
marking with a smile, "It's too hard
to get to throw it away, isn't it?" and
yet we all do it.
When Joe Wright's father died after
a long life of economy and hard work,
he left Joe a comfortable fortune.
There were farms and a prosperous
store in the village, and money in the
bank. Joe began at once to throw the
money away. He invested in oil stock,
but the wells never gushed. He specu-
lated on the board of trade, but prices
more often than otherwise went down
and he sold at a loss. When he was
forty, his fortune had been dissipated;
he had literally thrown it away. He
claimed that it was ill-luck that had
pursued him, but we knew differently.
There was a drive on in our college
community not long ago to raise money
for the support Of some worthy chari-
table organization. The amount asked
from each individel was small and
would not have been missed by any
one no matter how limited his income
might be. Fithian came in to ask my
advice He is living on a monthly al
lowance from home.
do you think it is right and fair" he
inquired, "for a man like me to sub
scribe money for charity which comes
from home, and which father has
worked hard to earn?"
"It's not to be thought Of" l replied.
I'm sure" l continued, that you'd
never spend fathers money for tobac-
co, or flowers, or dances, or moving
picture shows, or for anything that
isn't worth while or practical"
You're kidding me-" he said.
well, isn't it true" l asked, that
every day you throw money away on
things that bring you little pleasure
and no profit? And here is something
that is really worth while, and you
hesitate to spend quarter on it,
Sometimes money that is boarded I'M
wisely is as good as thrown away. An
acquaintance of mine Skimped and
saved and starved himself until he was
past eighty to accumulate a fortune.
He never had any~pleasure, he never
did any good 0ith his money; he sim
ply piled it up for his relatives to
quarrel about when he was gone
Not TO be thrown away, money must
be spent wisely or saved for some
worthy purpose. that in the end the
world or individuals may be better or
more efficient or hanpier.

GETTING UP IN THE
MORNING

p OY came tearing into the Office,
red in the face, apologize, and a
half hour late.
L forgot to wind the alarm clock
last night" he explained, land none of
the fellows walked me- When.I go to
bed, I'm dead TO the world"
You'll need to marry an early
riser" 1 suggested.
I've never used an alarm clock ex-
cepting the human variety. My ex-
perience with that sort of machinery
has come from watching my friends,
and they seem to have a good deal of
trouble.
Until 1 was grown mother assumed
the responsibility of getting nae out of
bed in the morning. She seemed to en-
JOY the task and usually, after a few
preliminary attempts, was successful.
In an emergency, or when 1 proved
unusually Obdurate, my older brother
was called into service. His methods
were not so gentle as mothers and
were unpleasantly suggestive of physi-
cal violence He employed pitcher
of ice water and the strong arm.
Occasionally father was enlisted in
the good cause. He always came to
the foot of the stairs and shouted up.
Are you getting up?"
Yes, sir" l always answered, and
it was the truth. Father was a man
of few words, and was not to be trifled
with. I dressed on the way down the
stairs.
Getting up, like going to bed, is
matter of habit or intention. We can
learn to get up at regular time or
when we want to. Even in youth,
when sleep ordinarily held me in
slavery, l found no trouble in getting
up on Christmas morning, or when the
circus was coming to town, or the
Fourth of July celebration was on.
l had the thing on my mind and 1t
was all easy.
The trouble with Roy, who is like
many other people, when he goes to
bed he has no interest Ia getting up,
no intention of doing so unless he is
urged to it by clock or some human
power. He assumes no personal re
sponsibility. IT is something's or
somebody's business to waken him, and
If that agency does not work, it's not
his fault. His state Of mind is not I'M
like that of the Scotchman who said
that he was always willing to be con-
vinced of his error, but he'd like TO see
the man who could do it. I've never
had an alarm clock or been called or
oversight since left home and mother
relinquished the job of getting me up
in the morning. It's a habit.
l believe the reason people don't get
up in the morning is the same reason
they don't go TO church. They don't
want to.
