EASY MONEY CARRIES CURSE

REAL ARTICLE GAINED BY HARD WORK
Vaperieaera of One Who Had a HI ah
Old Time BarnlnB His rile
Itrflertlona on the
Mornlag After.
'Easy money" Is one of the curses of
modern Industrial life. Whoever gets
"easy money" Is contumluated sometimes
ruined. Tha "only money that does any
good In the World is the money earned by
hard work, and "easy money" ruins more
young men, destroys more happiness and
wrecks more careers than whisky and to
bacco together.
I am a victim of "easy money." It was
the easiest of easy money. It was the one
thing that had made me a failure or partly
a fallu-e In life, where I should have been
a success.
. I came from a small town where I had
worked hard and diligently for wAges that
ranged from $160 a wvek to r.i-lhe highest
I ever earned there. 1 cuiued 11 mui the
spending of It and tht ti-.u;ln f ii were
sweet. It went fur. I m.t.lo 11 last. I cul
tivated habits of thrift mid i. miliary unJ
saving. Since then I huvc c.uv.i d-not
earned, but received u.i liij;h ns $Tu In a
Ingle week, and frequently l0u u wek.
and today I am almoxv pcnniU'., 1 at
tribute it all to 'Vany money,"
To be fair. 1 nrjl suy that my own weak
ness was the contrilmiui y cause, but easy
money develop weakiieHM-s, and all men
are weak.
I emigrated to Chicago lu the spring of
world's fair year. I had a little money
that I had saved, and a small sum that
bad been left me by my grandmother. I
waa determined to get a foothold in a big
city 1 and fight my way upward. I had a
friend who had a pull, and through hiin 1
got a Job st the fair. It waa In the manu
factures building, and, before the fair
opened, I was placed In a certain part of
tha foreign section to supervise the plac
ing of exhibits.
Ia tha first week that I worked there I
had my first touch of "easy money." A
French manufacturer's exhibit arrived. It
came frome New York on the Wabash rail
road. The agent hunted me up. He wanted
to get his exhibit Into shape before the fair

opened. I chalked off his space, hunted up
bis two cars of stuff, had the railroad
switch It to the ground, employed men to
handle and put up the stuff, and, when
everything wns In position, the agent
slipped a bundlo of money Into my hand.
I protested. I told him I had only dons
my duty. He explained that it was cus
tomary, and that It was worth that amount
to him. There was $300 in that bundle.
Just then I felt elated. If a little conscience
stricken. If I had to do It over again I
would throw that $0 into the lagoon.
I worked hard In thive days, hard and
conscientiously many hours a day, some,
times twenty hours at a stretch, during
the weeks that preceded and Immediately
followed the opening of the fair. Ex
hibits arrrlved In all sorts of shapes and
there was a constant fight to get them
into the building and fixed up before the
opening. Every exhibitor was ready to
hand out. money to gain a day or a half
day. Money poured into my pockets.
In the month before the fair opened and
the fortnight after it opened I must have
received $2,600 in gratuities. I fl! in with
a lot of other fellows who were getting
the easy money. We drank wine, we
played the races, we "sported." Nothing
was too good for us.
The gifts decreased as the fair went
along, but still the foreigners would hand
out the money at every fuvor. 1 drew my
wages wuti disdain. I was gutting ten
times as much lu graft as in pk.y. And I
was spcnilir.K It as faat as It uuuie In
When the fair cloved I was out of work
und almost out of money. I suddenly woke
up to the realization thai easy money did
not coma ft all times. I went to the races.
I got a job with a bookmaker. Already I
waa spoiled for hoitust, earnest work. 1
wrote sheets for the bookmaker and, made
$10 a day. I knew 1 could not get $15 a
week by working. I was after "easy
money." 1 remember that I said to my
friends: "A man who works is a sucker."
Sometimes I was worth tl.uOu and some
times I borrowed $S until next pay day.
I played the races.
Afterwards I ran a handbook downtown,
not for myself, but for a syndicate that
backed me. I drew J'.SO a week and 10 per
cent of the winning.-;. Sometimes I had as
high as fc!.00U, but most of the time I was
running along in debt to the concern.
Heaeat Wain Werkers Rtdleeled.
I laughed at the fellows I knew who were
drawing $'- a week fur honest work. 1 told
them I could make that in a day. I did not
realise that most of them were laying $G a
week or maybe $10 In bank, while I was
gambling away my money. I wasn't ex
travagant. I didn't spend any great
amounts on clothes or on food. I spent a
lot for drink, although not a heavy drinkar
myself.
At tha end of four years I had nothing.
Then on oS my friends who had been
working for $20 a week came to me with a
business proposition. He had $l.i and
wanted in to put in $l,Suo and go into busi
ness. I didn't have the money. Today he
is worth $60,000 at least, and I am working
for $11 a week, and working hard.
It took ma almost twelve years to realise
that easy money wasn't worth getting. I
pent it as fast as It came, and I got no
material good from It. I got a political )ob
and held that for a few years. It was
tuote "eaay money." Bui there alau I
pent It as fast as tha money cam in.
Then the thing happened to nie that ought
to happen to every man. I met the right
girl. I wanted to get married. Then I
suddenly realised that I had wrecked my
chances In life. I couldn't ask her to marry
m. a simple pirate and para tie. I hadn't
saved anythini. n
Then I looked around for work. The
friends" I had mad by spending
mouty "vd ni up." I waa "so ood.Tna

a "grouch," and I wouldn't "stand for a
touch."
I went to work at $15 a week. I have
had a raise since then. Also I have mar
sled the girl. We are doing pretty well on
$18 per, and I am glad I threw away all
the easy money.
My punishment lies in the fact that I
wasted nearly twelve years of my life. I
don't regret the money I wasted, but those
twelve years mean a lot. I threw away
that much of my life groping after "easy
money" and, frankly, if it hadn't been for
the girl I would have thrown away my
whole life. If I had there would have been
a big funeral and a lot of fellows would
say: "He waa a good fellow. He let me
have 120 once when I needed It." Now they
will say: "He used to be a good fellow,
but he turned grouch. "--Grant Phillips in
Chicago Tribune.
TRAVELING MEN IN ENGLAND
Advantaaes They Have get Ferth by
One Who Has Enjoyed
Them.
"Traveling men In Englund have special
dining rooms, special rates and special tots
of things," said E. K. Bimmor.s of Man
chester, England, who is in Louisville.
Mr. Simmons has been traveling In America
for the last four years and has become
somewhat accustomed to the methods of
American hotels in caring for traveling
men and at the same time has picked up
many vf the Utile ,meiiun tricks of
speech. However, he. lias not lost the
broad English accent and Moll drawling
methods of speech.
"When you go Into the lobby of an
English hotel," h said, "you may be sur
prised to find a great open fire burning In
one end of the room. Great comfortable
chairs will be found about th lobby and
you need not exclaim if you see several
salesmen smoking long pipes and reposing
their stockinged feet upon large footstools.
Empty shoes can be found in many por
tions of th room.
"Th English lobby is a parlor or sitting
room, a place of comfort and in no in
stance bears the stiff, varnished, emblai
oned appearance of your American hostel
rles. When you go to the diulng room
you may be surprised to hear th clerk
ask if you are a traveling salesman. If
you are you are ushered Into a simply,
but homely furnished room containing one
long table. The apartment Is more Ilk a
prlvat dining room and everybody la
everybody else's friend.
"The meal Is especially served, lb wait
ers show especial deference and everything
bears a tone of home Ufa. As each man
leaves th table he ia seen to drop a two
pence piece, a cent in American money, In
a little box. This is an unwritten law of
the land, and the money thus collected
goes to pay for schools and orphanages
for the children of traveling aalesmen who
die wilhout leaving auffkient means for
their aupport. Several of theae schools
and orphanages are maintained throughout
Lngiand..
"English traveling salesmen taks life
easier than do the men following a similar
occupation in America. They never think
of entering a man's store with a lighted
cigar, and they would as soon forget to
wear a collar or coat as to expect to do
business with a man without having their
auotsa careiuliy polished. All hotels look
to this and a 'boots' gets your shoes each
night, marks them with chalk, polishes
theui and returns them before you are
avuke the next day." Louisvtll Courier-

THIS HURTS NATIVE PRIDE
American Trains Rank Third in Point of
Railroad Speed.
ENGLISH TRAINS FIRST, FRENCH SECOND
Remarkable liesg Runs at Hlah Speed
With on t Mopping; Few Heally
Fast Trains ta This
Country.
Instinctively people think of speed as
the first and most Interesting feature of
the railroad, and In view of the develop
ment of railroads in the United States most
Americana will be surprised to learn that
this country Is not first In the matter of
fast trains. England holds the lead und
Franc la a close second.
In this statement reference is made not
to the short bursts of speed which this or
that engine has shown and may never
how again, but to the regular scheduled
runs of trains. In looking nrat at England
on is apt to be surprised to find how
many faat rains and long runs without
stops are made there dally.
The fastest regular long distance run
without stop in the world U on the Great
Western from London to Bristol, 11SI miles
in 120 minutes, or practically sixty miles
an hour. In order to drop passengers at
Bath a car is dropped from the train with
out stop, a time saving device lu operation
on a number of European roads, though
still unknown here.
Tht longest run without stop' made in
any country Is London to Liverpool vn
tha London ft Northwestern, 3'1 miles,
mad at th rat of fUty-four miles an
hour. The next longest is on the Midland,
from London to Leeds, IM miles, at the
rat of fifty-two miles an hour.
The train in this country coming nearest
to these long runs without stop ia the Em
pire State Express on the New York Cen
tral, from New York to Albany. It3 miles,
at the rate of 63 64-luo miles an hour; aid
the time of the same train to Buffalo, MU
miles in 600 minutes, Is Just a trifle faster
than that of the Midland express from
London to Glasgow, 447 miles in 510 mln
nutes. Each makes four teguiar stops.
Th Northwestern runs a train from Lon
don to Glasgow, 401V miles. In eight hours,
making only two stops.
The Great Northern runs a train from
London to Doncaster, lu6 miles, without
stop. In 16V minutes, at th! rate of KVi miles
an hour. While there is not uulte so fast as
over England's new road, from London to
Sheffield, ltX miles, in 170 minutes, better
than fifty-eight miles an hour, slipping a
car at Leicester without stop.
Faat Tralas ta the lulled States.
These fast and long runs are common
to all trunk lines In England, while in
the United Stales the fast runs are all con
fined to two ronils. the New York Central
and the Pennsylvania, Compared to many
English fast runs the time between New
York and Washington and Boaton is slow.
The distance to the two cities from New
York is about the same, and in both case
th fastest trains make it in live hours tor
a littl over, now, to Boston!, or at th
rate of forty-six miles an hour, three
stops being made in each case.
For runs of nearly l.OuO miles no country
rsn show trains to compare with the New
York and Chicago trains on the New York
Central, the lft trains making the !o
miles in l.Oao mini'.ies, or at tidy-four miles
an hour. While this not quite so fast as
th time made by the fast trains from Paris
to Lyons and Marseilles the distance ia
twice a great as across France.

trains, undoubtedly the fastest are from
Camden to Atlantic City. Here some very
fast time has been made over an ideal
country for fast time, by both the Reading
and the Pennsylvania. The Reading has
set the pace und the Pennsylvania followed.
The best Reading time Is 56H miles in
fifty minutes, or over sixty-six miles an
hour, while the nest Pennsylvania time Is
fifty-nin miles at the rate of sixty-four
miles en hour.
Moderate race In the West.
These constitute all the fast regular
trains in the United States. The fastest
run In New England outside the Boston
New York run Is from Boston to Portland
at the rate of forty-four miles an hour, and
the showing is still poorer In the west and
south. Chicago, In many respects the
greatest railroad center in the world, has
no fast trains outside the New York 'Cen
tral and the Pennsylvania trains referred
to.
Throughout the west, while the beet
trains are very luxurious, perhaps the most
up-to-date in the world, tha runs are all
short, averaging about thirty miles be
tween stations, and the speed nowhere
averages forty miles an hour. Throughout
the south there are no really first-class ex
press trains other than those from New
York City or Chicago carrying the tourist
travel at certain seasons of the year.
Next to speed may be considered the fre
uuency of trains, their appointments, etc.
In this renpect a still more pronounced dif
ference appears In different countries with
almost equal population.
Why should the people of ' one region
crowd hundreds of trains dally and those
of another region be Ratified with only two
or three trains? Thus more trains leave
the great south terminus In Boston in one
day than are moved In one direction on all
the roads of Spain and Portugal In two
weeks. From one terminal in London mor
trains leave dally than move in ten days to
supply 125.000.00u people of all Russia, In
Europe and Asia.
It would probably surprise New Yorkers
to know that the south terminal In Boston
not only Is the largest station In the world,
hut sends out dally more than 400 trains,
nearly twice the number despatched from
the Orand Central station by the three
roads starting from there. The next larg
est number sent from any station In this
country Is about X0 from the Boston A
Maine terminal in Boston, and th next
about 3J6 from the Broad Street atatlon.
i Philadelphia. Then come the Grand Central
station. New York, and the Reading termi
nal, Philadelphia.
London Tramp.
But tliHse llgures do not equal those of
the great Loudon terminal. There one sta
tion sends out Too trains dally, the great
est numlMr from any one station in the
world, and all of the twelve great terminals
send out large numbers of trains as th
suburban travel Is great and the trains
are often auialler than in America.
Including all suburban trains, such as
IhosQ of the Stalen Island road, which is
Hill opeiuled with steam, und figuring on
a mean average of winter and summer, the
tegular scheduled trains leave the four
great centers In the following number
dally, the figures being for all roads and
approximately correct: New York City,
1,j0, Boston, l.ouu; Philadelphia. KX; Chi
cago, SaO. No other American city has 400.
As might be expected the roadbed and
the operatlrg equipment are better in Eng
land and some parts of France and Ger
many than lu America, and owing to the
ever-prevailing precautions taken both by
the roads and the mate, accidents sre only
about one-fifth as frequent as in America.
All the principal roads in England have
two tracks snd many main lines have four.
In this respect Americans are making
great Improvements now, as th Pennsyl

Fast Trains on the Continent.
Touring Europe outside of England It
Is found that France alone indulges In
really fast trains, and possibly it is the
first In the 'number of trains running reg
ularly above fifty miles an hour of all
the great nations. The greatest travel
route in Europe out of England Is from
Paris south to Lyons, Marseilles and the
Mediterranean, and here are found fine
and fast trains.
Tha run from Paris to Marseilles, 685
miles, is made in 70 minutes, with only
six stops. Many cf the shorter runs, uch
s from Paris to Calais, to the Belgian
frontier, etc., are at the rate of from fifty
eight to sixty-two miles an hour for the
regular schedule.
According to a German authority the
average speed of the fastest trains in Eu
rope is as follows: -French, fifty-eight
miles an hour; English, fifty-five miles an
hour, and German, tlfty-one, but fast
trains are hard to find In Germany, and
the service in this respect does not com.
par with Franc.
It takes the fastest train 227 minutes to
go from Berlin to ' Hamburg, 178 miles,
which la 47H miles an hour, and the "luxe"
train, the one fast goer, between Munich
and Vienna, runs at only 45. tin miles
an hour, but there are as a rule frequent
trains throughout Germany and the service
Is good.
For all the rest of Europe the speed
drop to about thirty miles an hour for
express trains. Italy is surprisingly slow.
It takes the express 963 minutes to go
from Turin to Rome, 413 miles, or only
twenty-six miles an hour, though th
Milan-Rom express makes nearly forty
miles an hour.
Between Rome and Naples, 166 miles,
there are only four or five trains dally, th
fastest t. thirty-four miles an hour, while
It takes 920 minutes to go 439 miles on th
best train from Rom to Brlndlui. a rate of
less than thirty miles an hour.
The express from Stockholm to Gothen
borg, the two large cities of Sweden,
barely makes thirty miles an hour, and
other' European countries are still worse.
On the English trains third class dining
cars are now run In which the same meals
are served as in the first-class coaches, but
at considerably lower rates, and the high
back sesis give a privacy greatly appreci
ated by small parties or two persons dining
together.
Such runs aa that between London and
Birmingham, on the Great Western, a dis
tance of 119' miles, made without stop In
140 minutes, or at the rate of more than
fifty-five miles an hour, are remarkable, as
this seems to be about the regular gait of
many trains in England New York Bun.
The Ideal In Everyday Life.
Let us now go for a walk, during which
we will observe the people who are pur
suing their callings. Let us note their
mood.
We shall come upon peraocis whom we
cannot see iwfip, hammer or dig th earth
wilhout experiencing- a desire to take from
them their broom or hammer or sad in
order to show them how they ought to use
it. This sort of worker Is to be met with
quite aa often In the schools, In th church.
In the fields, the mines and the shops.
Without Ideals people are the same every
where. When they tea h. they make us
weary of learning: when they make music,
they cause us to hate inuxic. Tbey have no
faith lu their work. All the time they have
the air of saying: "What a stupid trade 1
have chosen! Be sure my children shall
not follow It."
Those who put th ideal Into their work

Pointed Paragraphs.
Some authors' originality Is due to their
persistency In misquoting others.
Even a bachelor would rnther be a
widow's second husband than her first.
Nearly all great orators and authors use
words that are Rinaller than their ideas.
Let the poet hitch his wagon to a star;
the really wise man anchors his airship to
toe earth.
If you think that honesty keeps the ma
jority of politicians poor you are entitled
to another think.
It sometimes happens that a good man's
conscience doesn't prevent him from ac
cumulating money.
Honesty seems to be an ingredient that
many a self-made nran neglected to mix in
with the rest of his material.
In its way the gold cure may be all light,
but a man seldom feels the need of the
cure until his gold Is all gone.
When a man falls In business hi wife
tells the neighbors that he was too honest
to succeed, but what she tells him In pri
vate Is another story Chicago News.
