E THE LITTLE EXTRAVAGANCES
are the ones that curtail the power of most people to save
money and accumulate a competence. The spending of small
I suras usually less than a dollar at a time. While individually
these amounts are insignificant , collectively they make the difference -
' ference between just-get-along and financial independence.

The Three Fishers.
Three fishers Trent tramping away to the
west ,
Away to the west ns the sun went down.
Each thought of all fishermen he was tho-
best
Each thought of the fish he'd brins bach
to the town.
For men will fish , and women must wait ,
Though the bait be good and they stay
out late.
Then ho for the calm waters lying !
Three fishers came wandering back to the
town ,
Back home to the town in the morning
light.
Each one , disappointed , In wearing a
frown ,
For they haven't caught any , though
one had a bite ,
And the few that they carry of boys hava
been bought.
But think of the big ones they all might
have caught
And hark to the three fishers lying !

The afternoon was warm , holidays
were approaching , and the teacher was
almost worn out in trying to drum the
elements of grammar into the wooden
craniums of her pupils.
"Now , Johnny , " she said -wearily ,
"tell me , would it be proper for you
to say 'You can't leani me nothing ? ' "
Johnny looked thoughtful for a mo
ment and then replied in a tone of
conviction :
"Yes , mum. "
The teacher sighed.
"Vvrhy , Johnny7 she asked. "Tell
me why. "
"And now the answer came quick
and pat :

"It was this way. We were invited
out , and the kid exhibited his worst

and whispered in a stage whisper

'You're a little pig ! '
"The kid just grinned.
" 'Do you hear ? ' I hissed. 'You are
a little pig ! Do you have sense
enough to know -what a little pig is ? '
" 'Yes , papa , ' answered the child ,
trying to look innocent.
" 'Well , "then , what is it ? '
" 'A pig is a hog's little boy ! ' "

Ladies Fair.
All blonds are not light headed.
Girls vrith liquid voices should be
careful not to strain them.
Some women are a delight to the
eye and a drug to the mind.
Never tell a grass widow that she is
in the heyday of life.
If woman's age counts against her
she knows enough to keep down the
count.
The girl who marries for a lark
often flnds out that she was a jay.
The Idea of marrying will haunt a
woman if she has the ghost of a
chance.
Girls feel proud , of having many
new admirers , but one old one is real
ly more to her credit Boston Tran

Prepared For the Worst.
"Out in the cyclone district , " con
fides a man who is just back from an
automobile vacation trip , "I saw a
farmer building a stone wall around
his place. Believe me , that was some
wall. It was four feet high and six
feet wide. ! asked him about it , and
he said , 'I'm buildin' this here wall to
stick. ' 'It won't do you any good , '
says I. 'A cyclone will tumble it
over. ' 'Let it , ' says the farmer. 'The
wall will be two foot higher if it does
fall over ! ' " Cleveland Tlain Dealer.
