sutomobile, but an unlilnited supply of $lOO -certificates. Just another scheme to catch a lot of “suckers.” Nearly every person possesses the gambling instinct to a more or less degree. The truth is, the average American is more or less inclined to take unnecessary rigks. In the realm of money making many are ready to take a long-shot chance in order to strike it rich, if possible. T Knowing the inclination of the average American to gamble, Irregponsible schemers lie awake nights plotting as to the best way of arousing the gambling instinct of the investor, and when this has been done they proceed to fleece him out of his cash. By using various “baits’” these get-rich-quic romoters are usually successful, especially among persons who are inexperienced in making investments and who neglect to investigate before they invest. : You can't get rich by dealing with promoters of the wild-cat type, but you can quickly lose what capital you

ON FRANCINE’S THRIFT As Helen settled herself in Aunt Emmy’s big chair she sald: “Jack Hunt has bought the Briggs place. | never was so astonished in my life. Jack didn’t have a dollar when he married Francine and now he's bought a house.” 3 :

“Well, my dear, it's not so surprising to me. Francine is responsible for their prosperity.” “Why, Aunt Emmy, | thought she was awfully frivolous. [ remember how disappointed I was when Jack married her. She seemed entirely too pretty and too well dressed to be a good wife. When 1 dined at their house I thoughu she was frightfully extravagant about her table. = She must have paid her cook a lot to have the food she served.”

Aunt Emmy smiled. “I liked Fran cine from the first,” she said. “She and I became good friends. She told me how worried she was bacause Jack did not seem to think of the future and never tried to save money. Ev erything about housekeeping was o Aaew to her that she was glad to come to me with her little problems. I advised hcr to save regularly, no_gpatter

surface of some new subdivision looking for it? Talk about wild turkeys tearing up the “terra firma,” they haven’t anything on man. A new subdivision is put on the market. Public interest in the tract is needed, 80 a key that will open a box in the tract office is hidden beneath the earth’s surface somewhere in the tract. This hidden key will open the box in the office and inside the box the lucky finder of the hidden key will find a valuable prize. It may be anything from a diam¢nd ring to an order for an automobile. A new automobile stands in {ront ‘of the office\and presumably it is the prize. Picture in yo n mind hundreds of eager searchers digging over the surface of a newly born boom subdivision, looking for the hidden key—the key to the big surprise box. About the time the diggers have been recruited to several hundred, the key shows

| have already saved. The road to the poorhouse is worn deep by the feet of persons who have dealt with irresponsible promoters and not by the feet of those who have a savings account or good bonds earning interest regularly and increasing in value day by

day. The signing of your name omn the dotted line of some trick contract, or the drawing of your check payable to some sharp real estateior othar promoter, or the turning over of your cash, may spell fipancial ruin for you. As a safeguard against losing your cash reserve, leave it in the bank until you have made a thorough inves tigation, which you can do without cost to you if you will consult your banker, or write to the National Bet ter Business Bureau, New York. - Each day discloses new victims of some crooked scheme. Old schemes having lost their effectiveness as a result of exposure have given way to new schemes to defraud. The new schemes are even more deceptive than the old forms. Fractional-share schemes, . territorial-rights schemes and co-operative land ventures are reaping a harvest for present promoters. Because s 0 many new schemes are being formulated is another rea‘son why you should investigate be fore you invest. :

aow hard it might be.. She coaxed Jack te open an account at the bank for her household money. He thought it was silly because they had so little. She saild she could keep more accurate accounts if she had a bank account. He said they didn’t have enough to keep track of. She insisted she want: ed to learn to keep accounts.. Then, when they got rich, she’d know how. ““I don’t need to tell you how they prospered. Tliree of the sweetest chil dren in the world and now.a housa' Jack is proud as he can be” “Yes,” interrupted Helen, “but how did she do it?”

“The very first week after she started her checking account at the bank she took the momey she saved' and opened a savings account in the thrift department, where she got interest on her savings. You see, she was deter mined to save at least 10 per cent of her income. She saved steadily. She asked me to help her plan things out and together we worked out a budget, so she could divide her income to meet her expenses. When her plan was working well she told Jack. “He was tickled to death. Then he began to save too. Francine wanted a real home. They saved for that. They have been married six years mow and they haven't a debt in the world. Th-t excellent Yood, my dear, was all prepared by Francine herself, just as her pretty clothes are made by her from remnants and odds and ends she picks up at bargain prices”—A B, Aymes. = *° . | ;
