THOMAS COOKE was a very poor boy, the son of a wandering fiddler. His father died when he wa< a baby. He began his work a-day life in a factory. From the start he felt the need of saving. “1 am often hungry now” he said ‘"but if 1 don't save I will be always hungry.” From one success he went to another. Success always awaits the man with money. Thomas Cooke lived to be 86 years of age and left a fortune of $636,025. He said *'l made it by saving it. ” You can open an account here for any sum from sl. up, FIRST NATIONAL BANK Decatur, Indiana. I’. W. Smith C. A. Dugan President Cashier W. A. huebler F. W.

IDEAS OF DESOLATION LONELINESS A MATTER OF INDIVIDUAL TEMPERAMENT. ■" ’ ■■■■ Affects Different Persons In Contrasted Situations—Many Keenly Feel Themselves Alone In the Midst of Busy Crowd. —— The various things which affect one with a sense of loneliness will probably always differ so long as there are differing types of humanity and ! diverse conditions of life. What is ! desolation for one easily proves de- j I light for another, and where one sort of person will be filled with Intolerable loneliness another will rejoice at the quiet, or the tumult, or whatever is the order of events. Many people can appreciate the feelings of Chris- 1 : topher Harding, factor of the Hud- ! son’s Bay company, who returns to! his isolated post in northern Canada after a year spent abroad In the can- i ters of population, when he says: “in all my life I never felt so loneJ iy as when a few months pgo I stood for an hour on I.ondon bridge and watched perhaps hundreds of thou- : sands of people hurrying by. Never in the depths of the wilderness did 1 I feel so much alone as when in that! vast throng I realized that thqre was ; not a seul who knew or cared about : : me. That was real loneliness.” But to many others the depths of 1 the forest and the remoteness from ; civilization would be as poignantly oppressive. And to still others j the sense of isolation in either case i might not prove disheartening or ap- ; palling. It Is a matter of personal ‘ and individual adjustment. Some of ! ‘ us seem constituted to observe, tc form spectators, to delight in the I sense of a near-remoteness to the j ! crowd, or in the Interests and aspects ' ! of thousands or to find a corresponding pleasure in the vast sweep of distances and the silence and calm of the wilderness. The isolation either of crowds or I desert is capable of a fine stimulant: i for the one who has learned the' secret of escaping from loneliness j : by lending himself sympathetically j 1 to the fullness of life as it flows on 1 ! about him. To Dickens, scribbling' | his reporter’s notes in the rain and ; fog and glimmering lights of London, the strange-faced crowd, the ; myriad types of human nature, as observed but unobservir.g, meant an exultant and often pitying faith in : the world of humanity, and a full . and abounding sense of life and con-1 j trast and color and drab but meaningful tragedy. Being alone, or st least i lonely, depends in a great measure on the individual and his lack ot capacity for making the most of the i conditions about him. One-Hundred-Dol'ar Pikers When Tetrazzini was staying at a 1 Neu* York hotel her manager asked the porter to get railroad tickets for her party to Chicago. As they were leaving the hotel the managed asked John, the porter, what he paid for them. “Ninety-five dollars.” I The singer's representative handed over a $lO6 bill, saying, “Keep the ! change.” When Tetrazzini returned to New York she found an item of $95 ! on her first -week’s bill. Her man ager challenged it. “I paid John, the porter,” he ex plained. When he went to John about it the i ; porter didn’t know It had been ■ charged. Then he ran his hand Into ! his pocket, pulled out a roll of bills i fat enough to choke a cow, peeled a yellow century note off the outside and handed it back. When the im pressario's back was turned John ! muttered to Ed Keogh, the chief | clerk: “Another of them pikers’” John, the porter, is said to be worth SIOO,OOO. Single Line Poet. Every man has the streak of poetry in him, and probably every man could write one line of poetry out of hie life—as any man has one novel in himself. But we were talking at large the other day and r. man quoted the line, “A rose red city half as old as time.” And then came the question, Who wrote that ino that everybody < knows? One man said it referred to Damascus. But no one knew who : wrote it. | There are single-line poets as there are "Single-Speech” Hamiltons, and here is perhaps the only instance in which the N . dig ,te prize poem at • Oxford has produced a living line. Fot : the author was the Rev. J. W. Burton, | who won the prize in 1845, and doubtless recited portions of his poem in the Sheldonian theater. But that allu sion to Berta, the Arabian rock city, has lived. Where It Did Most Good. • | There was cause for an eruption in 1 a downtown office this morning that, ■ instead of causing a flow of lava of Vesuvian quality, will, not doubt, produce a lather of Vesuvian, quantity, , says the Indianapolis News. A large , soap manufacturing firm sent a box of fine soap to the manager of the 1 : office, who handed It over to his dainty, well-groomed stenographer, with the regulation, “Here, do you want this?” Later In t*-e day Mr. Manager remarked that be wished to - dictate a letter of thanks to the manufacturer, and began: “My Dear 3.: I I want to thank you for the box of . soap, and you may be sure I have put !It where it will do the most go--" But the stenographer had fainted.
Old Vincennes Awakened ! H'ONTINVED FROM PAGE ONE) J years it has been trying to get u 21- ! <‘tir extension, claiming Hint It must ieorgnnlze and make improvements to | i ..ie for the growth of Vincennes. lli the citv would grant the extension the! ! company proposed to deed over to the! i Daughters of the American Revolution ! iiie old home of William Henry Harrlsqn, which stands next to the pump1 lag station. The people wanted the Indies to get the historic home but they woulud not stand for the company’s I termsSo the water company tried n new bribe. Having spent $750,000 for a 1 modern sewer system, the city will i reed 58,000 gallons of water a day for ' the proper flushing of the sewer, which iis nearing completion. The water ! c ompany agreed to give the city the i needed water for flushing in return for ; the 21-year franchise. The people : forced the board of public service to turn this proposition down. The com- | pnny retaliated by serving notice on I the city that the company would not I provide the a-’ditiona! 5R.0u0 gallons j daily. Experts have figured out that j the company can easily handle this j additional water with the present out- . fit. The company then bluffed that it ! would appeal to the state public utilities commission. And this is just ! what the people want. The citizens : look to the commission for relief from i the company. In the argument that 1 lias been held over the franchise the people’s counsellors have founml I many contradict ions la figures offered ■by the company. Also, water rates ! are high and the company forces a new consumer to pay for extensions and then the company retains the tii tli to thesi- improvements. o NARROWLY ESCAPED DROWNINGSon of Mr. and Mrs. Festus Rhoten Almost Drowned at Lake George. Mr. and Mrs. Festus Rhoten are' j home from Lake George, where they ! spent a vacation of two weeks. While j they were at the lake their little son nail a narrow escape from drowning in a “live box” in which fish were ; kept. He was playing about the box I while his father was along the lake ! front, a short distance away. Becoming overbalanced the boy slid down into the box beneath a wire netting, i and when his father looked around in search of him the boy's feet were all he could see sticking up out of the water. The boy was partially uncon-1 i scions when his father puiied hint : from the water and had to bo rolled! around on the ground a short time be-! fore he entirely revived.—Bluffton i , News. Mr. Rhoten is general manager of j j the .Morris string of five ami ten cent i stores and is well known here, having often assisted at the local store. Fort Wayne & Springfield Ry. Company.
