Batered at the postoffice, Beattie, Wosh., as second clase matter, Published by Star Pablishing Company cveryoevening except Sunday If You Hada Million Dollars LD as the eternal hills is the question, “What would you do if had a million dollars?” Moses must have dreamed it in the bulrushes, and Joseph passed the time with it while imprisoned in the pit. And now a popular movelist is making it the theme of a serial story in a maga zine. The last man wil 1 you probably think of it as he stands on the latest remnant of the disappearing planet, hoping to the uttermost that the worst is not yet to come Well, what WOULD you do with a million dollars? Let’s assume, of course, that you've previously lived with your face glued to the grindstone—the it of most of us—that you have wanted many luxuries me neces Sities which you never thought you could and that the million was to be yours in a swift, bewildering wad, with out string or restriction, and to be spent or hoarded as your cy decreed Tt’s awful easy to say, as you hear folks say almost every Way, “I'd do this” or “I'd do that if I had a million dollars,” but when they say it they have no expectation of ever being put to the test and no idea at all how trying the test we uld be. | You couldn’t spend it on eating, you couldn't spend it on drinking without making yourself very much worse off than if you'd never had the million. You couldn't put it into} an enterprise unless you felt capable of doing the managing There are few wholesome pleasures which require for their attainment anywhere like so large a sum as a million) dollars; and if you went in for vice or selfish indulgence, the more means you had, the quicker would be your finish And so you could go on parsing this thing out until you simply couldn't escape the conclusion that handling a million | ithout preparation is no small lertaking and that, for the} most of us, the dangers probably outweigh the imaginable | ‘Denefits. — | LONDON WOMEN are now wearing skirts slit to a| point above the knee, with bodices cut lower than ever. As (goon as the cuts at top and bottom of costumes meet, we'll fhave full reversal to barbarism, and get rid of such hypocrisy ‘as modesty—unless women show a reversal to good sense | first. And they, will. Let None Cast a Stone in-| BUY SEATTLE MADE GOODS. ‘THAT'S A GOOD INVESTMENT WHAT CONEY ISLAND MUST BE LIKE! BY GENE MORGAN WHO NEVER WAS THERE IN HIS LIFE Coney Island!
