How Dickys and Maj. Grantland
Managed to Get Madge
. Safely From the Car.
The remnants of my Puritan con
science, which seems to have been
badly shattered since my marriage,
awakened clamoring as 1 struggled,
panting with weakness, back to my
berth after semiring the last bits of
the torn telegram Dicky had uncon
sciously scattered on the floor.
- A telegram not addressed to me
which my husband and one of my
best friends evidently had agreed to
keep from my knowledge what was
I doing with it?
I had my hand at my dress to
throw the fragments back on the
floor when Dicky's appearance at
the door prevented the action. I
could not put theni'back without his
knowing that I had gathered them
up, and this in my present tremu
lousness of nerves was simply im
possible to me.
"The train's slowing up for Aber
deen," he said, then nodded care
lessly to the porter at his heels.
Just take these things out with
those of the rest of our party, and
thank you. You've bJen a good
scout this trip."
He handed him a bill as he spoke,
and the man's grin threatened to ex
tend to the back of his neck.
"Ya'as, sir,, thank you, sir, I alius
tries to do my best sir," he said as
he seized all my baggage except my
velvet purse, to which I always
cling, and departed with it.
Dicky's Whimsical Report.
i "Ought you not No be helping
mother off the train with Junior?" I
asked. "Remember, there's only
father with her, for Alfred certainly
must have his hands full with his
mother and three girls."
"He has!" Dicky's reply was
prompt, expressive. "Believe me,
that lad's earning his honeymoon.
Between his mother and Rita
Brown he's certainly getting his.
Lucky 'Her Fluffiness' is his mother
inslead of his prospective mother-in-law.
But he's Managing every
thing beautifully, and your father
has my mother eating out of his
nana, so you needn t worry a bit.
Dad is an old traveler, you ought to
remember."
"Yes, I know, but I can't ,help
worrying." The quick, nervous
tears rose to my eyes as I spoke.
Dicky strode to the side of the berth
and picked me up bodily..
"Don't do that," , he pleaded
whimsically. "The porter will think
I've been beating you up."

I laughed involuntarily, which, of
course, was what he intended, and
he put me gently down again and
went tOsthe door.
Is Dick Suspicious?
"The train has stopped," he said.
"I'll just give these passengers the
once over, see how many there are
getting off here."
He snapped off the light, and took
his station by the dbor, which he
opened tinty a crack, fend peered but
attentively. I saw that he had cun
ningly arranged his position so that
only an unusually observant pas
senger could know there was any
one watching, and I wondered at
his sudden interest in his fellow
passengers. It was unlike "Dicky
to give any thought to casual neigh
bors unless they disturbed him.
A sudden disturbing thought
struck me. He was acting, for all
the world as if he was watching for
some face he knew, some one by
whom he did not wish to be seen.
My imagination described another
fantastic arc. Had this scrutiny
anything to do with the contents of
the telegram?
Dicky turned abruptly from the
door and put an effectual stop to
my speculations with the announce
ment: "Everybody Roue-- who's going to
get off, and here's Grantland,
now," as a knock sounded on the
door.
Dicky opened it, and the army
officer bowed courteously to me.
"Everything is ready now, Mrs.
Graham," he said as unhurriedly as
if he were not holding a whole train
for mv convenience, "Are you able
to walk?"
"Oh, yesl Thank you," I return
ed, and TJicky interposed w,ith words
that sounded queerly to my sharpen
ed curiosity.
"Will you go ahead?" -he said.
"Coast is clear this side."
I fancied that I caught a signifi
cant look on Dicky's face, but Maj.
Grantlaiid's was distinctly "poker
ish" as he replied: ,
"Very well, I'll just stand at the
aisle here until you turn the corner,
then I'll cHjt in ahead of you."J
I blessed his thoughtfulness as I
saw that his tall, massive figure
standing between our door and the
aisle effectually shut out anv curi
ous ' inspection of my faltering
journey out of the door with Dicky's
arms around me. . I -found that I
was almost too weak to stand, but
I managed t pet around the corner
into the corridor.where I found
myself, sinking into Dickys arms,
thorouhgly spent.
"Here," I heard Maj. Grantland
say roughly, "you must let me help
you." , ,
The next instant ' I felt- myself
lifted as if I were a baby and borne
to the platform and down the train
steps to a big limousine. ;

Saving
Y
By SAMUEL
It is doubtful if the full economic force (o sav
ing can be sold as a coldly abstract affair;. The,
economic value of life insurance has not been gen
erally sold, arid even where such insurance is riow
sold to cover inheritance taxes the appeal is largely
f to the emotions on the ground that if the' taxes ajre
deducted the beneficiaries of the testator will not
receive the amounts which he in his wisdom had
exactly designed for their needs.- The emotions
have to be played upon and this can be reasonably
and legitimately done in a number of ways. There
is, for instance, the long line of appeals to avoid
poverty so well expressed by Micawberwhen he
said: "Annual income, twenty pounds. Annual
expenditures, nineteen six. Result happiness. An
nual income, twenty pounds.' Annual expenditure,
twenty pounds, naught and six. Result, misery.
The blossom is blighted, the " leaf is withered, the
God of day goes down upon the dreary scene, and
in short you are forever floored, as I am."
There is also the appeal that is so effective in
insurance in which the actuarial statistics are used
to demonstrate to the prospective buyer the careers
of100 average Americans starting at theage of 25.
, It is impressive tp note at 35, 10 of these men
will be wealthy, 10 will be well-to-do, 40 will live
on their earnings, and 35 will not have advanced.
Twenty years later only 1 will be wealthy, 3 will
be well-to-do, 46 will live on their earnings,, and 30
will be no longer self-supporting. Ten years later
out of 64 survivors, 54 will not be self-supporting,
and of tne 37 who will normally live to the age of
75, 34 will be dependent. ' V
Take the widows of this whole group of 100
which, of course, widens the appeal, and it will be
shown that only 18 can live on the incomes, that
their husbands accumulated ; the others are either
dependent or have to work for a living. These are
very strong facts in selling the thrift idea. But the
savings may seem so small to the worker as not to
be worth while. In that case one can simply pre
sent the great number' of men who started life as
ordinary workmen and who by saving have put
themselves into the position to become wealthy.
Such men are in the majority. Take L. F. Loree,
the president of the Delaware & Hudson railroad.
He is not one of the very wealthy men of the coun
try, but certainly he is a representative citizen
He says: . ' '
"When I was a young man, I tried very hard
to save money, for I knew that I should never be a
success until I had saved. So, every month I
watched the pennies spent as little as I could
and saved the rest. "
"It wasn't easy; and it didn't amount to much,
either. There was always something unexpected
coming up to take the money, and 'the rest' was dis
. appointingly small. Besides I hated to think
about money all the time yet when I didn't think
about it there wasn't any 'rest' at all to go into the
savings bank. -
"One day I tried .a new plan. Just put a defi
nite amount in the bank when I first got my pajr
and lived on the rest. From that time on I began
to get ahead rapidly, the money in the .bank grew
regularly and surprisingly ancTI didn'fhave to
think and skimp all month. We just spent what
was left."
