YOU CAN DEPEND ON YOUR
NEIGHBORS.
To who do you appeal for help
in time of trouble or sickness?
On whom would you depend if
dread misfortune laid its heavy
hand on you? Your neighbors?
Exactly.
Man is a gregarious animal,,
and lie naturally cares for rela
tives, friends and acquaintances.
Social affairs depend entirely on
acquaintanceship, and business
affairs are controlled to large
extent by the same element. It
would be better if business and
'friendship were still more closely
linked.
If you would depend oil your
neighbors in lime of adversity
why not depend on them in pros
perity? Isn’t the man whose
hand you would like to grasp the
man to whom you ought to hand
the dollar that you have to spend?
Why send it away to a mail or
der house which would be in
terested in a death in your fam
ily merely because it offered a
possible chaiee to sell you a
tombstone or a crape band for
your hat?
You know your neighbors are
reliable, that they can be depend
ed on, that they would come to
your aid with sympathy or ma
terial help should the occasion
arise. Then why not '.show that
you appreciate their good quali
ties by doing business with them
^ regularly and as a matter of liab
gt? ,They know you and are in
terested in you. The mail order
man is merely interested in get
ting your money, and that in ad
vance.
Spend your money where you
make it.

No man who permits malice,

GETTING ALONG IN
WASHINGTON SOCIETY
Samuel <<. Wythe hands nut
this huneli of Washington so
ciety in an imaginary comment
by an imaginary wise old sen
ator:
"isn't il amazing Imw hard
society hits some people. We
teeem to have it harder in Wash
ington than anywhere else, hut I
•suppose in reality it’s the same
everywhere, only down in Wash
ington the game is easier and the
rewards ipiicker than elsewhere.
I’ve known people In come into
Washington with not a tiling in
the world to recommend them
save the possession of a few
million dollars, or maybe only
one, and build a big house, and
after judicious training and
coaching develop into great '.so
cial leaders. I’ve seen ’em come
in so raw that the man didn’t
know whether a red tie or a blue
one went with a dress suit, and
the woman unable to get into a
carriage without stepping on her
dress, and in three or four years
become such swells it made your
head ache.
“Several clever women who
know the game have made good
things down there coaching In the
proprieties our newly rich and
newly landed in Washington. I
recall a man who made his money
in the West. He spoke with a
broguof, had hands as big as
hams from working as a laborer,
and ate in his shirt sleeves and
with a knife. They polished him
and refined him and manicured
him and taught him the langu
age, and in four years you’d have
thought he was born to jt. Only
he had one great grief—they
couldn’t find any way to reduce
those hams of hands or those big
feet, and when he got interested
he lapsed back into the brogue.
And they look his wife and
taught h.er to dance and to walk
and to eat and sleep and to bathe
and lo stand up and to sit down,
and they enameled her, and prun
ed her where she needed pruning,
and padded her where she need
ed padding, and painted her. To
day she’s one of our social lights
and the leader of I he exclusive
set. And more power to her, for
she had the ■stuff in her or she
wouldn’t have lTeen able to get it
over.
“It’s funny that we all si rive
constantly lo prove we are bet
ter than our fellows by associ
ating with fewer of them. What
we desire is that exclusive posi
tion that enables us to look down
on the rest of the world as a
trifle better than they are be
cause we can do something they
can’t do, or go somewhere they
can’t go, or speak lo somebody
they can’t speak to, or feed some
body they can’t feed. Imagine,
for example, a group of men get
ting together, organizing them
selves into a club and hiring a
house, oi' building one,- and sit
ting in the windows of that house
and looking out at a man who
passes by and saying to them
selves: ‘Wo are better than you
are, sir, because we can come
in here and you can’t.’
“And it is so with this social
game. It is all predicated on the
proposition that some people can
go where others can’t, and that’s
right enough, I suppose; only
why should we take it so serious
ly, when there arc big books to
read, and big pictures to see, and
music to hear, and the great out
of-doors to enjoy, to say nothing
of the need's of our fellow-man
to attend to?”
Only Got 35 Cents.
(ion. Frederick I). Grant said
to his servant one morning:
“James, I left my mess bools out,
I want them soled.”
“Yew, sir,” I he servant an
swered.
The general, dressing for din
ner I hat night, said again: “1
suppose, James, that you did as
1 told you about those boots?”
James laid 35 cents on the bu
reau.
“Yes, sir,” said hit*, “and (bis
is all I could get for them, though
the corporal who bought them
said he’d have given half a dol
lar if payday hadn’t been so far
off.”
