There is an increasing tendency as

corners at home--if they actually

WHAT'S THE BIG IDEAL!

Money plus interest makes money Indians
sold New York City for $24 to Dutchmen. Had they
placed that sum at six per cent compounded on the
day they sold the land, their heirs would have more
money now than New York City is worth. Chauncey
Depew past ninety, tells how he put $10O in the saw
ing bank sixty six years ago, and has 81 100 in
the bank
But interest," while sure, is slow. A good idea
makes money quickly. John E. Andrus, called the
"Shaphanger Millionaire" because he hangs to-
street-car straps when he might ride in his automo
bile, bought one share of Singer Sewing Machine
stock for few dollars in 1864 Having bought a
good thing, he knew enough to keep it. That share
has paid him thus far $4,000.
1t was not Mr. Andruss thrift that made the
money, but THE IDEA of another man, putting the
eye Of the needle in the needles point instead Of the
other end, thus making the sewing machine possible
Be thrifty, save, let interest work for you by all
means. But use your brain for QUICK results.
