be Her Rainy Day Brings } A Real Tragedy i Should Learn the Value of Money Now, and Save Bitter Experience, for Time Brings Unexpected Upsets. By Sophie Irene Loeb. he): night during the week I sat up till the wee hours of the morning Spends All; and heard the story of a woman who spent and was spent—the ty! friend who told me the story. Yédrs ago she married a wealthy F ‘There were three children, and it’ was a happy home. There was potbing more to wish for, since every wish was fulfilled almost for the ask- qvA life of luxury and)ease and There she was in hér home sur- | rounded by lovely friends but shut swutwrrom the working world. ‘This (gwoman of refinement and beauty asked any questions about The husband offered none. Sha, never inquired about the goose i@that.laid the golden eggs, for she ways reckoned it to be a sturdy bird who had found the secret of ut—the same old story. There was eFY little left—a mere pittance. And the same old story—the rich ARS. who had been dined and wined in her beautiful home all for- sher in her hour of adversity. aa\8 usual, she wept alone. She looked around helplessly. Something hajyto be done. For a while, of gourse, she lived on the sale of the things she had. But soon this was exhausted, and there was but one thing to do—go to work. jomehow she succeeded in getting a clerical position at a salary that Lape had paid her personal maid. But maw glad she was to get it Every night after work she had to climb several flights of stairs to the verw tiny apartment which she could @ffend. And it was hard, oh, so hard and bitter. {She was a good woman and bore hem €ross like a soldier. But it was too-q@uch for her. She became ill gytrithe strain. And she is in the hospital now. “I-wish you could fc little face,” s fas she sat up in bed hard not to complain. ‘I never real- ized what it meant,’ she said, ‘the Wwalue of a dollar. 1 never knew how hard it was made. When I go to my ork and sit all day in the office I hink of those around me who always ve had to do this sort of thing and ho had already learned how hard it Ss to make it. They are, therefore reful about spending it ‘While 1, I never did know until ow.

I should haye ut aside something myself—some- ing that would have taken care of © rainy day—the inevitable day of ckoning that nearly always comes. “4 wish | could get over a message, a big message, to be rd the world over. | would tell them my story and make them understand, and explain that Tim> brings many tragedies and that no ‘one can be too secure. There is but one source of safety, and that is to save rather than to spend.’” What a sad thing it is. How much ore difficult it is for this woman, accustomed to hardships and the ind. How terrible it is for her to bok back on what might have been. ow pathetic it is for her to do with- ut the things she once had and loved d needed. Perhaps she suffers more than one ho never has lived the life of luxury at was hers, Yet this is true as ell in the home of modest means. The woman who spends here does know more about the value ot money, and if she doesn’t she could educate herself, The wi woman will never leave it e: tirely to her husband—the bus ness of saving—will even deny herself something she wants, It is very comforting to think lof the nest-egg that is safely settled in some bynk. It may not pome from the golden goose, but t was not so easily secured and therefore more to be watched. @h-ves, I know of a husband who the spending. ‘There are many ch, , There are men who think only biz figures—ficures of the future. hey do their spending now—on azination. priexample, there is a man of my ajntance who loves restaurants than home life.

This husband is a great believer of “doing it now,” especially his spending. fe never looks ahead. He lives !n the present. The future will always find him struggling. Of course, there is the other ex- treme, the stingy Scrooge, who saves and saves and saves. He never gets anything out of life. There is many an old woman who denies herself everything in order to see the figures grow in her bank book—the figures for which her heirs are waiting. Yet there is the happy medium— the fine art of discrimination, It is the saving right hand letting the spending left hand know what it is doing—always.

You simply need your wei it more proportionately distributed. For this nothing is better than general exercises, istre Henry Ford said history was bunk. Hank now claims Revere could have gone faster by riding stock model, F. O. B. Detroit. Flivver is at least as fast as milk wagon, and rattles even more. Other high spots in history are now under suspicion. Experts claim Revere's famous steeplechase Was only one jab of the hypodermic needle. More sensations will be trotted out, It's now hinted in higher intellectual circles that Steve Brodie never took that celebrated jump. Data reveals Steve only had one dive and that was the place. he opened on the Bowery. Legend of leaping off Brooklyn Bridge was at- tempt to discredit Tammany Ad- ministration and prove bridge was unsafe for average commuter. Speed records also introduced will show that milk wagon would have hit Bast River quicker than Brodie, if Steve had ever jumped. Another ace up historians’ sleeve is that Washington never wint¢red at Valley Forge. Statistics . will show that Continental Army -was playing golf at Pinehurst that winter and had post office address at .Val- ley Forge merely as a blind. Wash- ington’s best round for thirty-six holes was 141, or three strokes higher than'a milkman could make it. . That Nero of Rome was not guilty of arson is another late finding of history gents. Famous fiddler got credit for that four-alarm fire, but records of district fire chief assert that blaze was started from natural causes. Nero bet close friend of his that box of safety matches wouldn't light. B covered bet. One safety match caught firs by mistake and Nero tossed it into gas tanks of local branch of Standard Oil: That is what started fire in Rome. No deception, no secrecy.’ To settle bet, Nero swam across river and played a tune on violin, Fire would never have got such a start but apparatus was slower than milk wagon in responding. Another grand slam that historians will put over is that Balboa did not discover the Pacific, Documents dug out of old steel box prove Lor Angeles real estaters saw Pacific Coast first. Balboa didn’t even dis cover climate, When Bal climbed tree to grab flash at salt water, he discovered location for news-weekly camera, but that is practically all. If there was water along Pacific Coast, we leave it to any innocent bystander who would be likely to see it first—a milk man or a guy like Balboa, And history will prove that we are right. > Another front-page anecdote that history turns thumbs down on 1s idea that Alexander sighed for more worlds to conquer, Affidavits now in hand assert that at time Alexander is alleged to have sighed he was leading his ragtime band on smali time vaudeville circuit. He did not heave for more worlds to subdue He sighed for more milk routes to deliver the goods, SOC ST HRI LT HOH ‘TATED STS TI For the Cookie Jar E OOKIES, as well as cake, have a high fuel value, hence serve their purpose in the well-balanced meal.
