A BACKWARD AND A
WARD LOOK.
FOR-
While the business men are easting
np their accounts at the end of the
year and their customers as well are
taking stock of their spiritual benign,
it is not a bad idea for everyone and
especially parents, to do likewise in
regard to their personal finance. ,
Are you further ahead in that re
spect than you were at the end of last
yearT
Honey in the bank at the close of
the year is a good measure of your
success in material things. Have you
as large a savings account as you
should and could have?
Former President William H. Taft
has said: "There is no cause that
I know of that works so much on a
conscientious man who loves his wife
and his children as the prospect of
leaving them helpless in the world
and dependant on others; and there
is nothing comparable to the relief
from this worry." ' :
Extra money,' beyond that required
for living expenses is a buffer against
hardship and misfortune. ' So if you
would not be forever crushed between
the upper and nether mill stones of
'poverty, you must ' save systematic
ally from the income of your work
ing years. And this is the best pro-
vision you can make for your wife
and children.
But it is possible in this day of op
portunity to do much more than just
escape being poor. You can become
rich if you really want to. The world
has by no means exhausted the op
portunities for men of limited means
but the right kind of determination.
Money begets money. But the peo
ple who are without capital and who
sometimes complain bitterly against
that the original nucleus for men's
fortunes costs immense sacrifices on
the part of the owners. ; X.
: -t you :bv dttlAted yourself m.
dividend for the year 1913 in the
shape of money saved from your in
come, turn yourself toward the com
ing year and plan to do better for
yourself and .those who are depend
ent upon you in 1914. . Some per
sons are inclined to regard New
Year's ' resolutions lightly, but, as a
rule, they do not ridicule the .resolu
tions themselves but make fun of
those who fail to keep good resolu
tions made. One of the most sensi
ble New Year's resolutions that any
one can make is to save money sys
tematically and deposit it regularly
in the bank. It is a double-barreled
resolution because its fulfillment
means stronger character as well as
increased resources. Make it and
keep it, and get your share of the
1120,000,000 interest paid to depos
itors every year by the savings banks
of the United States.

Bird That Has Four Legs.
British Guiana boasts ot one of the
few survivors of the many peculiar
birds now known mostly as fossllB,
according to a writer in Our Dumb
Animals. This Is the crested hoactr
zln, and may be found only in very
dense and unexplored forests. The
hoactzln Is noted chiefly for its pe
culiarity in possessing four well de
veloped legs. .
This would never be suspected in
the adult bird, inasmuch as a certain
modification begins while the bird
is yet young, whereby, the claw-like
legs or hands become shaped like
wings, and leathers are grown, so
that when this bird gets its full plum
age there Is nothing left from which
one would suspect that these wings
were once legs. ' , .
.. The young birds, before this modi
fication does take' place, leave the
nest and climb'or scramble over, the
limbs not unlike tree toads or youns
monkeys. They .feed on flic youns
arum leaves and are in this youn.i
state the nSarest approach to a t;uad
raped of any bird. .

Buggy Ride With Her.
Did you ever take a buggy ride in
the still of tbe evening, down tba
winding turns if a country pike, with
the fair one by your side? If so, 'nu.f
said.-' With a proper sense of propor
tion, the old-time buggy was made to
hold exactly one and a half. Tbe re
sult was propinquity also bliss.
Along the road all too short-you
drove. Moo cows mooed in the. dis
tance. Anxious mothers came to the
door and cried : "Wi-l-lie ! " But
you were lost to bovine .vlaints and
maternal solicitudes. Pungent odors
from the dog fennel mingled with the
faint perfume of the thistle's bloom.
The night dew lay on the fields,, star
light drenched the earth and you dis
covered you had a soul. The air was
chill, and you .fixed a shawl. Hands
touched and withdrew, followed by
most eloquent and ecstatic silence.
Then came the parting, as you "hand
ed" her out at the gate. A whispered
good-by, lest any other hear, and a
retreating vision ot a rosebud fairer
than John D.'s pastor ever dreamed
of. Washington Post.

' ' Persian Carpets.
A law has been passed by the shah
ot Persia forbidding persons to weave
carpets according to European design.
Violation of the enactment is a crimi
nal offense, and the Imperative atti
tude taken will have a greater tend
ency than ever to raise the -Persian
carpet or rug in esteem. Often a Per
sian carpet will remain in the family
for generations, such careful treat
ment does it receive. When the owner
of a valuable carpet dleB he very, of ten
gives instructions that it shall be cut
up in pieces as heirlooms to his suc
cessors, and should a member of the
family not receive a portion he would
feel very greatly slighted. The designs
of Persian carpets have been handed
down from remote ages. Each family
keeps its own design, no two carpets
being alike for fear ot the Evil Eye.
