We should neithd hoard it, nor throw it away. But between the spendthrift and the miser, give me the spendthrift every time.” “Not so with me,” 1 replied, “of the two I will take the miser, because he, at least, does not prey upon his fellow creatures and force them to support him when he'is sick, or out of a job, or gets too old to work. “Furthermore, at the last, the money he has raked and scraped together does some good, for when he dies, he is bound to leave it behind him, and many a school, many an orphan asylum, many a hospital have been built with the dollars and dimes some tight-fisted old man or wonian could not let go in life, whereas the waster's money has been frittered away upon 2 thousand foolish extravagances that have really benefited no one except those who purvey to the self-indulgent. “Understand me, ple 1 hold no brief for the tightwads think that no vice Is more sordid than avarice. 1 think you can hold a penny before your eves until it grows so big that it shuts out the vision of ever thing that is beautiful and sweet and tender and lovely in life.

He had no one to support except himself d his wife. yet when he passed on his entire estate consisted of a second hand automobile and a couple of hundred dollars in the bank. “He had never bought a home. He had never taken out any life | insurance. He had never saved up any money. He had lived up to his income, and all of it had gone in eating and drinking and theaters and taxis and fine clothes and entertaining. His wife, left penniless, was a middle-aged woman, a semi-invalid, with no trade profession, utterly incapable of supporting herself. She couldn’t be left to starve, so she had to go to live with brother, who is a poor man with a large family to support. And e balance of her days she must graft her living off those whom she has no right to compel to support her. $¢[LVERY day, all about me, I see fathers and mothers living up to the last cent of their incomes, instead of saving part of it to take care of them in their old age, and I wonder that they never think of what a wrong they are doing their children. 1 wonder that they do not realize what a cruel thing it is for parents to be parasites that suck their children's very life blood. And this is what often happens when their children are forced to support them. “Many young men and women cannot marry because they hav care of their fathers and mothers.
