'You think your little is not
worth saving; but I have noticed
that the cigar-man and the theater-
man and the soda-water man have
such high opinion of your little
that each is glad to get his hands
on just a small fraction of it, in
order that he may carry it to HIS
bank and have it placed to HIS ac-
count.
'I suppose it is all the same to
the bank-your little is going there
anyway-but, say! If it is going
there anyway, would it not be better
to carry it there yourself, and have
it placed to YOUR credit?"

The Nations Heart Song.
(Cincinnati Enouirer. )


 One hundred and thirty eight years ago this week was born American who wrote the Nations death less heart song-a song which has since stirred the soul of the world of men and women who love their homes
 John Howard Payne wanderer. He saw across the years the beauty and appeal of his birthplace; in matchless words and melody he breathed the immortal sentiments and dear to men. He sang of the home where his infant feet had stayed where the sweet voice of his mother sang her lullabies through golden years. He sang for millions dead, yet living, and for millions yet to be- He appealed to the universal heart-to the dweller in mansion and in cabin Swept by the magic of his minstrelsy the soul wings backward to the days of youth of love- of glorified affection
 Home Sweet Home"-what song in all the world with memories, memories sad and sweet and tender! It evokes pictures than ever came from ar lists brush. In them we see the flowers that mother loved hear the flutng of bird-song inn mortal see skies more glorious than any lmned by Turner or sung by Shelley.
 To those who realize the value of home Payne's paean takes on a quality of sanctity It revels in the corridors of the mind and wins us to lay tribute on the altars of the soul It aims the eye with msts of love and longing for the long ago.
 Home-"Home, Sweet Home"-it is the ante chamber to heaven through which we pass to seek the welcome of One whose name is Love.

As head of an organization exer- cising the various functions of ship ping, banking, manufacturing and farming, MT Grace has studied at unusually close range the differ ences between the human beings who live north of the Rio Grande and those south.
 He says that business men from the United States have shown a new attitude toward Latin Ameri- ca which differs radically from the usual European viewpoint.
 North Americans, he believes think in terms of building, con- struction and reciprocal trading whereas Europeans, in general, fol- low the policy of obtaining conces- sions.

BARRETT wILLOUGHBY's NEW BOOK.

Nearly all of the best reviews have given Barrett Wioughbys book, the Trail Eater" which from the press last month, more than a greeting and it deserves all the good things that have been said for it. It is an authentic Alaska book and it is interesting story, chuck full of thrills. The yarn is built around the famous Al-Alaska Sweepstakes dog races which constituted a feature of Alaska life during the active placer mining days of Nome, and it contains announce ment saying that the heros methods of training his dogs and his trail strategy were based upon experiences of Allan Alexander Allan, known in Alaska for many years as "Scotty" Allan, who, be- fore the advent of Sepala, was conceded to be the greatest of all Alaska dog racers He was later an Alaska Legislator. Many of the incidents of the book and the tricks that unsuccessfully used in attempts to beat the winner of the great which is the theme of the tale said to be based upon actuaites.
 This is the fourth Alaska book to be produced by Barrett Willoughby, and all of them ought to be in every Alaskan's library. She is charming writer and none presents with greater truth, more graphically life in Alaska it has been and is Her Alaskans real men and women and such people as all who have lived long in the North have known.
 The descriptions of the Sweepstakes trail, the bzzards that occasionally occurred it. the frenzy of the people the great annual event. the gambling houses and the betting the dog teams give permanency to conditions that familiar to those who lived here during the period when Nomes greatest interest next to gold mining dog ing There is in the book clever and interesting love story about clever and interesting people. But all the people in the story nteresting-even the villains. In the end virtue is rewarded with vic- tory on the race and the right people win in love.
 The story must be read to be fully appreciated.

Tourists and War Debts.
(New York Times.)

(NeW York TlmeS) The vacation rush for Europe is in full flood and this years crest is reported to tower above all records By mid-September the currencies of Europe will have profited by than the $525- 100000 estimated by the Department of Commerce as American tourist expenditures last year When it is stated, however that American holiday disbursements on the Continent are twice the sums which Europe pays annually in settle ment of war debts it is necessary to remember that American money in Europe is not all profit for the natives. Despite traditional banter it is obvious that the shelter food and recreation pro- Yded for American visitors represents very appre- ciable investment. At the most generous estimate Europes profits can hardly equal her war pay ments
 Nevertheless the tourist item helps considerably especially if indirect results counted It has been said that Germanys economic recovery began With the stimulus of large sales in 1926 as the result of the British General Strike Increased Ger man coal sales may have been only a score or million dollars, but it was like the pitcherful o1 water poured down the pump.

TRADE GROWTH RAPID
 WITH SOUTH AMERICA

NEW YORK, July 18.-Joseph P and company, steamship operators. Grace, president of w. R. Grace ascribes the rapid growth of inter- American trade to the fact that the United States regards Latin Amer ica as source of supply and not merely a market.
 He just has inaugurated the first direct passenger service from New York to Buenaventura, Colombia and Guayaquil, Ecuador, with the sailing from here of the motor ship Santa Inez. A sister ship, the Santa Rita, will follow shortly.
 He expects the new ships, and others yet unlaunched, will be re- quired to take care of the rapidly expanding commerce.

 We'll bet the old married man who's always talking about how much better kissing was before the girls began using lipsticks, has an unpainted pair of lips at home that he hasn't kissed since Hector was pup.
 Another advantage of dressing the way the women do is that they can disrobe in sleeping car berth without being contortionists.
 If parents boast about how well daughter is doing with her studies you never hear them complaining about boy friends calling up so much they never can use the phone.
 What some short skirts reveal is about as interesting as the Ad- ans apples revealed by the old fashioned winged collars of the men.
 The modern idea of daring dress is one that makes the girl look so naked it is almost impossi- ble to distinguish the dress with the naked eye.
