l Career of a Capitalist y
El
By Edgar Temple Field. ‘-
HAD long had a. desire to become a.
capitalist. Lucille seemed to think
it smart to laugh at me for this ex-
tremely laudable and perfectly natural
ambition. As for her, she wasted her
substance in riotous living, spending
every cent of her salary on opera tick-
ets, imported toilet articles and tor—
toni biscuit with a. reckless disregard
. for the future that could only mean one
thing, namely, matrimonial hopes.
And, to tell the truth, Lucille was at-
tractive enough to warrant her having
some hopes in this direction, and could
have had her pick any time from halfa
dozen young fellows, each one of whom
got almost as much salary as she did.
But that has nothing to do with my
own ambitions, which were of a very
different sort. I say were, for I’m not
so sure about them now, my first ex-.~
perience as a capitalist having rather
unsettled my views of life for the time
being.
I was very young indeed when I first
formed my ideas as to the desirability of
wealth. It was way backin my childhood
when old Mr. Higginson used to come
to church in his great fur—lined over-
coat and dirty linen, and I observed
how the minister and the elders crowd-
ed around him to shake his hand, when
he was such a hateful old curmudgeon
that I had privately thought the Lord
lic apology for perpetrating him on the
community.
“Oh, Higginson has got a lot of
money out at interest,” my father
would say when I ventured to wonder
why people made such a fuss over a
dirty and disagreeable old man.
What a marvelous power “money out
at interest” must be, I thought, when it
can transform even Mr. Higginso-n into I
an acceptable companion.
And so at that early age I was made
acquainted with the potency of wealth,
and I resolved that some day I, too,
should have “money out at interest.”
-..:
When I was made head stcnographer .
in a big law office I considered my am— ,
bition as good as realized. Ithad seemed 5
so far away before that I’d never tried ,
to save very much, but now that it was
fairly within my reach I began to lay f
up money at a. frantic rate.
“If you get another raise in your sal—
cry you’ll be so stingy you’ll take to '
lunching out of the mucilage bottle and ,
wearing your bicycle suit to church,”
declared Lucille in disgust.
But I just let her jeer and kept on
economizing, and at last there came a
day when I had $1,500 in the bank. Mr. ‘
Adams, a friend of my father’s, invest—
ed it for me in a first mortgage on a
suburban cottage, and when the papers
were signed I went home flushed and ,
triumphant.
“Congratulate me, Lucille,” I cried,
throwing myself into a chair and my
hat on the couch. “I haf inveshtigated
mein- moneys.”
Lucille was trimming a hat to wear
to the theater that night, one of those
silly white tulle affairs that a single
shower will transform into an imita-
tion custard pie before your very eyes.
i
| home.
”to think what Mr. Higginson
build that house. We put the savings
of year's into it, thinking that in our
old age we’d have a roof over our heads.
And now we must lose it all.”
A freslk burst of sobbing interrupted
her, and I swallowed a succession of
what seemed to be cobblestones. I tried
would
have done in such an emergency, and
wondered if he ever felt as much like
a chicken thief as I did at that mo-
ment. ,
“Why, don’t cry,” I managed to say
at last. “I’ll not deprive you of a home.
I only bought the mortgage as an in- _
vestment, you know.”
Here I was actually apologizing for
having “money out at interest.” ’flie
poor woman went away a little com-
forted at last, and I went to bed with a
nervous headache. -
I rather lost interest in my mortgage
after that. I didn’t sleep well for some
reason'; and when I did doze a little my
dreams were haunted by weeping old
ladies. I got a bad habit of going info
a. brown study at. inconvenient times,
and would start guiltily when spoken to
suddenly.
One day I got a note from Mr. Adams
saying he was going to foreclose at
once, and assuring me that I’d get my
money all right—Ineedn’t worry. Some-
how I didn’t find the assurance comfort-
ing, and went home without any appe-
tite for supper.
“May the Lord preserve me from ever
becoming a capitalist,” cried Lucille,
looking at my face as I sat trying to
read after supper. “You look, my dear,
for all the world like Judas Iscariot- aft-
er he was found out. A funeral would
ought to have made some sort of a pub- be cheerful beSide you. Thank good-
ness Bob is coming to-night.”
Bob is Lucille’s cousin, a young law-
yer, and the jolliest boy going. But
alas! when he came, Bob was in the
blues, too. He sighed like a furnace
every few moments, and finally an-
nounced that he couldn’t stay.
“I want to see a man named Adams
about a mortgage,” he said, and I
turned cold all over.
“It’s the saddest case I ever heard of,”
he went on. “An old couple who are
clients of mine had a. mortgage on their
I FELT LIKE A CHICKEN TI—IIEF.
It was bought a year or so ago
by some shark or other.”
I covered my eyes with my hand just
here, and Lucille coughed in an embar—
' rassed way. But Bob noticed nothing
think you’ve done something really.
fine. Sara Dunning, if you don’t look
pawnbroker’s shop.” ~
“What do I care?” I retorted gayly.
“I’ve got money out at interest, Luv
cillc. Do you realize what that means ?”
“It means that you’ve worked like a
slave and denied yourself all pleasure
for a year and a half to get it, and you’re
thin as a shad and as yellow as a lemon.
Come on and go to the theater to-night
and forget that you’re a capitalist long
enough to enjoy yourself, that’s a
dear.”
But the fever was in my blood, and
I wouldn’t listen to her.
So I went on putting money in the
bank and looked forward eagerly to
the time when the interest from my in-
vestment would begin to come in.
It was paid”: promptly enough the
first quarter and the second. Then it
lapsed. Six months went by and no
interest.
“It seems to me,” remarked Lucille
one day, “that you’d better investigate
that money in dead earnest.”
“Oh, don’t worry yourself," I re-
torted snappishly. I was nervous of
late, and besides, Mr. Higginson was
allowed to be as cross as he liked, I re-
membered.
“Well, it’s a great thing to have
money out at interest,” she responded
airily, tilting her sailor hat over her
nose and shaking out her rustling
skirts preparatory to going out. She
was really outrageously pretty.
At the door she met some one coming
in. A pale, forlorn-looking old woman,
with a pinched face and an appearance
of having cried for six months.
“Is this Miss Dunning ?” she asked.
I assured her it was, and she pro-
ceeded timidly: “I called to see you
about that mortgage.”
“Ah, yes,” I said, hastening to shut
the door on Lucille, who was lingering
in the hall in an unprincipled fashion
which I could not approve. ' ‘ "
“We've been unable to meet our pay-
ments lately,” went on my visitor in A
depressed tone, "and yesterday your
agent sent me word you intended to
foreclose. 0h, Miss Dunning, don’t.
Please don’t be hard on us. My poor
husband has been sick in bed forayear,
and if we lose our little home it will kill
him.”
Here the poor creature burst out cry-
ing, and» I reached for my handker-
, ,chief, feeling somehow that being a
.’
capitalist wasn’t such fun as I’d imag-
in‘ed.
‘Ebh, Miss ,Dunning,” proceeded my-
'gu‘est, as soon as she was hble to speak,
‘flg'iyjou kncyyfiho'w hard we marked to
“Huh! :9 she exclaimed, “I believe you i and proceeded ID. a troubled tone:
“Of course, they couldn’t keep up the
interest. Whoever bought the mort-
out, your nose will grow hooked just gage knew they couldn’t. SUCh people
like Mr. Dunkelspiel’s down at the I always figure on that, you know, and
now the poor old chap has gone crazy
over losing his home—clean daffy, you
know—and his poor wife will be turned
out unless something is done.”
There was a dead silence for a. mo—
ment when he stopped, and then I, got
u ‘Iwithout a word, and, going to my
d' r, unlocked the drawer where Ikept
the precious mortgage. With trembling
fingers I seized my pen and with a few -
strokes canceled the mortgage, and as
I did so a load rolled off my heart.
“Here,” I cried, eagerly to the~mysti-
fled Bob, “take this to that poor woman,
quick, to-night!”
“Oh, Sara,” cried Lucille, “you worked
so hard for that money.”
“So has she,” I said. “And I am young
and strong, while she is old and help-
less. Oh, Lucille, if you knew how I’ve
hated myself lately." ‘
Lucille took me in her arms, and then
explained things to Bob, while I cried
a. little, though I couldn’t help thinking
what Mr. Higginson would have said at
my behavior.
We got Bob off at last, as happy as 3
lord, and then Lucille embraced me
again.
“You were never out out- for a capital-
ist. I knew it all the time," she cried,
triumphantly.
“Thank you, dear," I said, meekly.
“And say, Lucille, let’s go to hear Maude
Adams to-night.” .
“Why,” she exclaimed, her eyes as big
as saucers, “the. prices are way up
in G."
“Who cares?” I said. “I’m richer to-
night than I’ve been for years."
And we went—Chicago Times-Her-

How His Head p‘Vas.
A‘ passenger on a Cunard steamship
had an experience which led her to be-
lieve that a seaman is not apt to waste
many thoughts on his personal troubles.
The sailor who brought her to this
opinion had a fall, which resulted in a
had cut on the head, the second day out.
She was solicitous in her inquiries as
to his welfare when she saw the cap-
tain that night, and would undoubtedly
h c continued hersympathy had not
a rough sea called to mind her own suf-
ferings. Four days later. when she
emerged, white and weak, from her
stateroom, she suddenly remembered
the poor sailor. In the course of the
day she saw him, with a strip of plus-
for on his forehead. «“How is your
head?" she asked, kindly, as he passed
by her bent- on some duty: “West by
south. ma’am,” was the reply. delivered
with respectful but hasty clearness,
and he was gone.-‘-Goldcn Days.

FOR THE POULTRY YARD.
Three Feeding ,Contrlvances \Vhoue
Introduction ls Recommended
by Experts.
No doubt some of the readers have
experienced difficulty in raising chicks
in the same yard with hens, which re-
sulted in the chicks being crowded
out at mealtimes and being peeked
by the hens. In the illustration No. 1
is shown a box into which the chicks
can go at any time to feed, and the
henscannot get at them/at- all. The
Ho. 1 .
box is made of 16-foot board, 12 inches
wide, the board being cut into four
pieces, each piece four feet long, and
nailed together. The box has no bot-
tom, but the top is covered with lath,
the sides having holes that admit the
chicks and exclude the hens. By hav-
ing the box bottomless it may be moved
from place to place, thus avoiding filth.
A cheap coop for a hen and a brood
of young chicks may be made of an
ordinary large cheese box, as shown
in No. 2. If the box is not deep enough,
two of them may be fastened together.
It is only intended for use during the
first few days of the chicks, as the box
would not answer for the hen during
any length of time, the room being
too restricted. It serves well for sum-
mer use, as it is cool and can be cleaned
" or moved easily. Simply mark the box
all around into strips about two inches
wide and cut out each alternate strip.
The object of the contrivanc’e is to en-
able one to prepare a coop in a short
time and almost at no cost. As the
chicks will be removed after they are
large enough to run about, the coop
may then be used for the next young
brood. .
More properly No. 3 may be termed
a. cover for the feed dish, or it,may be
made larger for confining a hen, the
chicks to run in and out. Simply at-
tach a handle to an old basket or a
box of any kind and make entrance
holes of a diameter just sufficient to
permit young chicks to run in and out.
The bottom of the basket or box should
“first be removed. _ ‘
The object is that, when feeding
young chicks, their food may be so
covered as to protect it from larger
chicks or fowls, while the chicks can
help themselves unmolested.—Poultry

INTRODUCING QUEENS.
Description of a. Method Which Has
Been Tried Successfully by 9.
Skilled Beekeeper.
Some years ago I sent to a Massachu-
setts queen-breeder for six queens, and
they were to be introduced according to
his plans, and if any failed to become
‘safely introduced the dead would be re-
1).‘.ped by living queens. His instruc-
tions were to remove the old queen from
the hives that were to receive the new
stock; and bare of the candy, at once
lay the cage over the frames and close
the hive for five days—a thing which I
did and found only one queen that had
been accepted. Two or three years later,
says a writer in the American Bee Jour-
nal, I received an albino queen from
an Iowa breeder, but this time I made
the colony queenless that was to receive
the queen 48 hours before introducing,
and lost my queen. I could not under-
stand why it was that these queens,
coming from a' distance, were rejected
by my bees when I had no trouble in
introducing my own stock among my
own. Maybe some one can tell. I sent
south last spring for 50 queens, and
when they arrived all were laid on the
shelf, and .48 two-frame nuclei were
made, and all shut up tight with wire
screen until 48 hours had passed; then
the 4S queens were laid on top of the
frames, as before, and every single one
was. accepted. All had started cells in
abundance, but when the queens were
set free all cells were destroyed. I
,did not wait five days, either, 'to see
what was going on, but took a look at.
any of them at any time I chose. The
remaining two were introduced in full
colonies, but not confined with equal
safety. I think lqwould not be afraid
of introducing any number when done
as above. Though others may have
plans that work equally well, I am not
afraid of this plan in my hands.
The Case Clearly Suited.
