One of theae stor ies wna the subject of conversation in H group of people who had leen amus ed by it, and so caught ly its sound ui (fuments that each had begun to think of them in persona! Application tc - himaelf. - "What I don't understand," iraid one, ''is how, when the young people owed nil that money, they eould he ld n to put an v I hk" in the bank. Why did the lawyer who wan drtfunizinf; their affairs insist upon their i.tvi,i . ns much each week as they put on th old bills? That money waa not their. to snve it belonged to their cred itor." This Is the rock on which many peo pie founder, liecause of cureleas ex penditures thoy have piled up debts But being fundamentally honest, they believe every cent that conies in must go on these old bills so they pay it right out, nver have any ready money for emergencies, and are forced to keep on piling up new debts. In a en ho like this, where people nro ftcnnible enough to jack tbemselvei up and begin over again, a certain amount of cash must be kept out of each pay for current expenses. Anoth er amount must go regularly on old bills. And the savings bank must I count od in as one of the regular ered Jtora. Any sensible creditor will prefer that some of the money be put in'c the bank. It is his insurance ag itnst future loss. It means that if sickness or accident strikes the debtor, he will Iw saved from bankruptcy. It means that if tho creditor himself should get into trouble' and make a speHitl appeal, there would be something to meet bis nppeal with. Moreover, the fact that the debt ir id making himself deposit that money ov ery pay day, denying hi in si-If derrcd luxuries to do it, means that he ii ec ipjiring the stiff back-bone, which will prevent future lapses into the quick sands of easy credit.

Lumber and Forests and Their Future. A forest of usuhle timber may be regarded in two ways as a coal mine, to be u.sed up and left eniitty, or as a farm in which planting (MJ.idtMi.tly offsets harvest. Obviously, If the country has uny thought at all as to its future resources, the latter is the only sensible way to treat its forests. There is, at present, an emergency need for export of lumber to fcurope The Umber there available will not sup ply the demand for rebuilding home and factories, for rehuliilitation of in wood. Kvery other country which ex ports lumber into the war zone is tak ing measures for the safeguarding of its permanent supply. In America the forests are mostly owned privately, there is no adequate government regu lation of the cutting, and many of the most valuable forests are simply "min ed cleaned out with no provision for the future. The world needs wood, and we have tho wood ready fur its use. Proper forestry methods will not only (rive un a yearly supply of trees ready for cut ting, but will insure the pci'munc ncc of that yearly supply. Tho fanner who grows crops yea by year without putting any fertilise er into his soil, thus exhausting it in U few, years, making extra cost and waiting necessary for the growth of future crops, is not so foolish or ex travagant as the lumberman who doer not use cure and forethought a to his trees. It- takes thirty years to grow a pine tree to suitablo size for cutting. Our supply will certainly no Inst thirty years from now unlesK sane precautions are taken. Strikes and Their Effect on Prices. A recent review of the iron trade says: "loss of production, with a consequent shortage of material, caus ed by the Htrike, has created n situa tion win-re consumers ate bidding up iron and steel prices rapidly in their vfforta to protect themselves against their requirements. The impending coal strike, with its threat of a furth er far-reaching dislocation of industry, is Hcrviug to intensify this insistent demand ami to raise the prospect be fore the producers of higher operat ing costs. Material available for early delivery is commanding sharp pre rniums, and this is tending also to lift prices for future shipments." In simple, plain KnglUh, the stee' strike has begun to raise the priccr of steel products, and the prospect of a coal strike has helped to boost them. Already the effects are felt by those who buy direct from the manufacturers. They are beginning' to show in wholesale and retail prices Soon, if the steel strike is not quickly settled, and if the soat strike occurs they will be felt by everybody whe buys any kind of iron or steel pro . ducts and upon the use of coal. It In n good illustration of the ecu I numic effect of strikes, an effect I which those who rush into them blith ely seem to overlook. These price- raises affect the strikers jiwt the ; same as everybody else, and so tend to defeat the usual put pose of strikes They should be a powerful drterren. against the use of the strike weapon except in an extreme emergency, es penally at a time when the ohvmu! need of every laxly is increased pro luction.
