Strauss on Thrift. v S. W. Strauss, president of the American Society for Thrift, speaking before the National Educational Association at Detroit, Monday, insisted that a thrifty person will save no matter what his income is. He said : . "In my life I have made this observation: If a man earns $500 a year and cannot save anything, he will not be able to save when he earns $1,000 or $5,000 or $10,000. On the other hand, if a man does save on $500 a year, his savings will be just as great in proportion when he earns $1,000, $5,000 or $10,000. And to my mind that is the great point in thrift. It is not entirely the amount of money that one saves, but it is the effect that the act of saving has on one's character." ... . In describing American prodigality, he said: "We are a prosperous nation, but individually, we are not a prosperous people. We are poor. We have grown rapidly. We have uncovered and developed vast resources. (5ur people have earned plenteously, but have spent lavishly. We have wasted. Our people have neglected to lay by for a rainy day. Let the wheels of industry stop turning in this nation for thirty days, and the vast majority of our citizens would be paupers. Do you know that one person out of every ten who dies today in our large cities is buried in the Potter's field." i Here's how he describes the road to riches: "Truly the nation should learn by heart these words from Benjamin Franklin 'The art of getting riches consists very much in thrift all men are not equally qualified for getting money, but it is in the power of every , one alike to practice this virtue.' " Mr. Strauss pleads for the teaching of thrift to children thus : "How shall we make this nation thrifty ?

Surely not alone by preaching to those who are old, surely not alone by Reaching those who are middle-aged? There is only one right way, and that is, begin at the foundation. The nation of tomorrow will be made up of the children who are in your schoolrooms today. If this nation to morrow is to be thrifty, if these children are to be men and women equipped with individual preparedness, we must begin teaching them today. We must teach them in the home, we must teach them in the Sunday-school, above all things else, we must teach them in the schoolroom. These children, whose bright, happy faces gaze into yours from day to day, will be the blood and fibre, the bone and sinew of the United States of America in the next decade or two, and their children wilj be the nation of the next era. So we can be assured that if wre teach these school-children the ways of thrift today, when they leave the schoolroom and start out into active life, they will be individually prepared to withstand the temptations of life through the practices of thrift. We can be assured that they will at least not be failures. Those who are thrifty never fail entirely; they may not reach the heights, but they never will reach the depths." Special Court for Women. Los Angeles has added a court which differs from judicial organizations of this kind in many interesting ways. The purpose of the court is to try cases in which-women are involved without subjecting them to the unsavory publicity and deplorable environment of the police court. The cases that are tried here are those which formerly attracted to the regular police court hundreds of spectators eager to hear the disclosure of shame and dishonor by the unfortunate defendants. All the officers of the court are women. The findings of the court are reported to Police Judge Thomas P. White, who usually acts on the recommendation of the women. Prominent women of Los Angeles are co-operating with the court, so that the luckless girl or woman is not forced into devious employment after trial, but has an opportunity to obtain employment in wholesome surroundings. The publicity given many cases in which women are involved militates against a reform of these unfortunates. The mantle of charitable silence thrown about these cases often will do more good than all the advice of a lenient judge or the heart-to-heart talk of a social worker. Many police court cases in which boys, girls and women figure ought be conducted privately.

MR. FOX AND THE COWARDLY DUCK. Old Mr. Fox was out one morning looking for hia breakfast, it was very rarly and lie crept carefully among the reeds and rushes that grew by the river bank, keeping himself well hidden and looking about all the time lo see if there were any ducks on the water. "Yes, there are two." he said to himself. "I can not get both of them: now let me see which is th fattest, that is the one I will catch for my breakfast." Mr. Fox hid behind a bush right at the edge of the water and watched, and this is what he saw: The ducks were sailing side by side.

when suddenly one of them disappear

rd and came up from under the water with a morsel of green in its bill, when to his astonishment Mr. Fox yaw the other duck take the green bit from the other and swim off with it and eat It. "That is a pretty good-natured luck" sail Mr. Fox. "I guess the other must be sick and that one is feeding it. I don't want a sick duck. I'll wait a bit and see." Hack came the duck which had taken the preen bit from its companion just as the diving duck disappeared again, and the minute Its head came above the water again the morsel it bad brought to the surface was grab bed from its bill by the other and carried off. and this time the duck came very close to Mr. Fox. Mr. Fox was so curious that he did not grab the duck, as he could have done, but be said very sweetly: "My dear friend, are you sick that your Triend feeds you?" "Oh, no; I'm not sick. said the duck; "I'm only hungry and getting my breakfast. "Hut your friend must be good-na-natured to do all the diving and let yon eat what he brings up." the Mr. Fox.

us. What is the use of diving into the deep water and running the risks of being bitten by some horrid reptile when you can get some one to do it for you?" said the Widgeon, with a wink toward the place where Mr. Fox was hidden. "Why don't you come out where I can see you?" asked the Widgeon. "I am going back for another bit, and I will come here to eat it. I want to see you when I return.' But Mr. Fox was still hidden when the Widgeon returned, and when he asked Mr. Fox why he did not come out Mr. Fox told him he was ashamed to, he was so plain looking, and he was afraid such a handsome fellows as the Widgeon would laugh at him. "Oh, you are a bird are you?" said the Widgeon. Well, I know I am very much envied because I am so

handsome and clever, but I shall not mind if you are not handsome. I will get another bite of breakfast and come in behind the bushes and have a look at you." "Yes, do," said Mr. Fox in his sweetest tones. Pack came the silly Widgeon, and in behind the bish he went, when "pounce" came Mr. Fox upon him, and that was the end of the poor Widgeon. "I really think that the other duck is silly to let the Widgeon take things

away from him like that," said Mr. Fox, creeping along the bank closer to where the other duck was now diving for its breakfast. "Such silly creatures are not worth anything ex

cept for my breakfast."

Mr. Fox had a conscience that he

could fit to any occasion, so he crept nearer and nearer to the water's edge,

and when the diving duck came close he meant to have it; but this time he was disappointed, for a shot wa3 heard, and the duck went under the water like a flash, and Mr. Fox knew it was time to run, and he did. Tomorrow's story "The Fairies' Fiddler."

An Easy Way to Get

Fat and Be Strong

The trouble with most thin folks who wish to gain weight is that they

insist on drugging their stomach or

stuffing it with greasy foods; rubbing on useless "flesh creams," or following some foolish physical culture stunt, while the real cause of thinness goes untouched. You cannot get fat until your digestive tract assimilates the food you eat. .. . - There is a preparation Irnown to reliable druggists almost everywhere which seemingly embodies the missing elements- needed by the digestive" organs to hel pthem convert food into

rich, fat-laden blood. This modern treatment is called Sargol and has been termed the greatest of fleshbuilders. Sargol aims through regenerative, re-constructive'powers to coax the stomach and intestines to literally soak up the fattening elements of j our food and pass them into the blood, where they are carried to the starved.

broken-down cells and tissues of your body. You can readily p'cture what result this amazing transformation should produce as with increased weight the cheeks fill out, hollows about neck, shoulders and bust disappear and from 10 to 20 pounds of solid, healthy flesh is added to the body. Sargol is absolutely harmless, inexpensive, efficient. Clem Thistlethwaite's four stores and other leading druggists of this vicinity have it and will refund your money if you are not satisfied, as per the guarantee found in every package. NOTE Sargol is recommended only as a flesh builder and while excellent results in cases of nervous indigestion, etc., have -been reported care should be taken about using it unless a gain of weight is desired.

BREAK UP BRONCHIAL COUGHS,

CROUP AND COLDS PROMPTLY Make the Best Remedy at Home 12S Teaspoonsful for 50 Cents.

Don't neglect your first cold, cough or any Bronchial affection, this fall, but commence treatment immediately, and through using the proper medicine, it can be checked from the . very start and" promptly cured, but if neglected probably will hang on all winter; if it does not develop into something more serious, such as Pneumonia or Consumption. True, there are hundreds, yes thousands of cough remedies on tie market. While some are good, there are many which are not, but are positively harmful, due to the narcotics which they contain. But why experiment with these different remedies purely on the strength perhaps of some testimonials or on the exaggerated claims of manufacturers, when Schiffmann's New Concentrated Expectorant is sold by Clem Thistlethwaite on such a positive guarantee to give perfect satisfaction, yes even more money will be refunded by them if it is not found the best

remedy ever used In Severe Coughs, . Colds, Whooping Cough or Croup, and It will also be found -excellent for Bronchial Asthma and Bronchitis. Besides these druggist3 guaranteeing "that it will be the best remedy ever used," It will likewise be found the most economical, because one bottle (50 cents' worth) makes a full pint (128 teaspoonful) of the most excellent medicine for any of the above affections, when mixed at home with one pint of granulated sugar and onehalp pint of water. It makes as much, or more, than would cost you $2.00 to $3.00 of almost any of the ordinary redy-made kinds, sold in bottles holding only 24 to 32 teaspoonful. You .,, will be the solee judge yourself and , under the same positively "Money Back" guarantee which the druggists make for the famous Asthmador.
