Escorted by the village band, I climb up Main street's asphalt hills, and with my checkbook in my hand I pay up all my monthly bills. It's good to see the grocer's face when I arrive, with checks on tap; it's good to see the glad smiles chase themselves around his hag- gard map. And from the butcher’s furrowed brow the shades of trouble flee away, when 1 would pay him for the cow I bought in fragments, day by day. The weary baker seems quite gay, and heaves no more His heartsick sighs, when I inyade his mart and say, “I'll pay you for those concrete pies.” Oh, many books have told us how to make the world a brighter place, to speed the opti- mistic plow, and light up every mourning face. And doubtless all such schemes are fine, and Pollyan- nas cut much grass; but I contend this scheme of min& will all the other schemes surpass. I might in- vade the merchant’s store and say a lot of sunny things, and he would rate me as a bore, and throw a score of bricks and things. His heart Is sick with grievous woes, his trade i$ slack, he's needing cash; and sun-— shine words and spiels like those appear to him as tawdry trash. But when I come and say, "By heck! Produce your bill—I'll pay it now.” | he promptly falls upon my neck, and plants a kiss upon my brow.
