! One treat trouble Is the seeming
humiliation of our people over sav
ing small sums and it Is their great
, mistake for even the little amounts,
the ten or twentv-the cents a day,
can be placed with established insti
tutions which will show astonishing,
increases In a short time, and, thru:
that same magical compounding of
interest, show wondeiTuI returns for
longer periods. Would it seem pos
sible to save six or seven dollars a
in. mill for less than ten years, then
let it remain at work for another
like period, and at the end of that
time withdraw $l.".MO? II Is done
right along with sound, conserva

their finamftl returns are nearer

reason for a vhild's future not be

The sec let of individual success,

of course, is found in systemettc.
