Thirteen-year-old John Arthur Hinckley, heir to a $4,000,000 estate, accustomed to all the luxury of New York and Paris, is tired of splendid hotels and steamships and automobiles and fine clothes and elegant houses. He wants to live on a farm. He savs he could be happy if he only had a pony, a dog and some rabbits, and fields and woods to ramble around in, and a stream to fish and swim in. And so his .guardian has authorized the purchase of a farm where he can eet his heart's desire. , It may seem strange to many boys in the country, who wish they had the things ot which John Arthur is weary. But those same boys do not know when they are well off. John Arthur has a sense of real values. He knows that a pony is better than a limousine, that a dog is better than a yacht, that a family of rabbits is better than a houseful of servants, that a pasture field is prefer able to a city park and "swimmin' hole" to a private sea beach. He has a pretty good notion that wild berries and wintergreen leaves and horse-sorrel and sarsafras root gathered by one's own hands are sweeter than all the wares of the confectioners. How many men, in middle life or old age, look back with longing to the joys of life on the farm, forgetting the hardships that went with it! And what man brought up in 'a rich home ever reverts with similar appreciation and sentiment to the pleasures of his early environment? Time tells. Young John Arthur is wise beyond his years; " - -. BANK BOOK OR PAY ENVELOPE. ferred. They offered bonuses to all employes who would start such bank accounts. ' The employee so paid rarely drew out from tne bank all his week's wages. Instead he would draw only what his family actually needed to meet current expenses. And as he saw his small beginning in saving increasing, he be came enthusiastic over the plan. Still another gain was recognized. The bank deposit system had done away with the standing in line on pay day waiting for a turn at the pay office window. The latter system was thoroughly exposed as a time-waster, an inconvenience and an undignified proceeding. Calling at the bank proved to be a pleasanter.and more efficient method of drawing one's pay. It is said that the idea has become popular among var ious industries in England and is spreading to others. It wouldn't be a bad idea to try out in this country, not only to cultivate the thrift habit, but because of the added convenience and safety. In the past year or two in various parts of the country there have been big pay-roll robberies. If the pay envelope were abolished in favor of the bank book, such robberies would be impossible. BUSINESS BY AIR. In England, during the war, many employers under took to encourage thrift among, their employes by estab lishing the custom of depositing weekly wages .to the worker's account in any bank the worker himself pre- RIPPLING RHYMES By Wait Mason AN OLD TRUTH. When I'd impart a moral lesson I spring it many times; and so there's sameness, I'm confessin', in these uplifting rhymes.The same old tale must be repeated in lilt and catch and rune, or my intent would be defeated, for men forget so soon. These repetitions will not hurt you if they should call to mind some good old time substan tial virtue that you have left behind. It seems to me all men are wasting, their coin they all unload; with merry steps I see them hasting along the poorhouse road. A year or two, when war was raging, we salted wealth away; and talked, with faces worn and aging, about the rainy day. But when the beastly war was over, with all its stress and din, we kicked around like mules in clover, and blew our money in. And ever harder we are blowing our little shining store; we laugh like chumps to see it going, and then blow in some more. And people say that I am raving and should take in my sign, when I insist on weekly sav ing, on putting coin in brine. We're spending cash like drunken sailors, our orgy's a disgrace; and someday we shall all be wailers down at the wailing place. Now is the time,-while money's plenty, to make your assets thrive; and out of every hard-earned twenty you ought to save a five.

' - The senators who are holding up ratification of the pettce treaty because of their concern for the Chinks on Shanturig peninsula seem to care little that the uncertain ty their action is working great hardships upon the people of their own country. The abnormal condition caused by failure of the senate to conclude peace is unsettling busi ness and industry and causing serious unrest inany quarters. The recalcitrant senators are simply a lot of small-fry politicians playing to the galleries in the hope that their gyration will attract attention and gain them notoriety. Think of Borah, Johnson, Sherman and Poin dexter posing as special champions of China and willing to see their own country go to smash rather than that a single pig-tail lose his right to smoke his opium -and broil his rats free from Japanese interference or supervision.! President Wilson talked plainly tooths railroad unions when he told them that they could not have all they.asktd and must play fair with the American people. There was a determined ring in his words that these rad icals would do well to heed, since the nation has grown tired of unjustified strikes, which is hampering produc tion in every line. Despite labor troubles, the peace treaty controversy and numerous other disturbing questions which fill the papers, we now and then see an indication of return to normal times. Just now the baseball magnates are scrap ping among themselves and there are rumors 'of a third major league in the east. Organization of a Rotary club in Salem marks a step in our progress cityward. Rotarians are usually found in a large place and if it isn't so large when they organize their, unselfish efforts in the interest of the community soon makes a real city of it.

The price paid was $1900. The family is delighted with the new home. Considerable excitement prevailed Fri day about three miles south of town in tho vieiiuty of the Marks place when an eseaued insane man was captured by 'Ralph Dodsou, John Palmer and a driver of one of the county trucks.

Morelli spoke, ills was a strange, hoarse voice. I lis tened waiting for the message. But I only caught phrases that I could under stand. All the rest seemed beyond me. I watched him with a strange fas cination. Now and then he seemed to look at me with a piercing look. It was over! The room was filled with the noise of talk. Mr. MacAl listalr was coming toward fe. But be fore he reached mo Morelli, THE Mor elli, stood ebfore me. 'I must know yon," ho began, "I feel that you understand." I flushed with embarrasment, pride. For the first time a man was seeking me. A man was interested in me. And I had done nothing! Tho wonder 0f it must have flooded my eyes. For when I looked up into Morelli V face he said, ''It is written; you are tho one!" Even to my dazed senses it could mean but one thing. I listened fascin ated. Morelli poured words into my ears. It was not he, so much, but that some one should choose me. He talked amidst the thickening suiiiko. He spoke of Morelli, of life, of love. At last he said," I shall write a poem for you. I shall put it in your box-. Soon wc ninst talk i.gain." Wo must dine together. I shaO come for you. Then I can tell why you are to me a frail white flower bending in the wind." - I rose.
