SUCCEEDS Business Versus Luck Bt.THOMaA? a DEANE "There's a lot of luck In the world," Mid John. Jones, who in his younger days had been an inveterate gambler. "When I was betting on the cards, my friends used to consider me all gone wrong. So 1 was. but it was not the chances ot the game that did It; it was the fact that gambling ti as a bad effect on tbe . gambler. I'm speaking, of course, of a fair game. A man who plays with professionals is sure to get cleaned out. , ; "1 was playing one of .those games once when I was handed a note from Tom Andrews, an old friend; of mine, asking me to send Mm $500. Within a few hours I had woo $3,000, and tbe $500 was a very small affair. to me. I thought of sending Andrews the money. " 2 "-hjj-'" -'Vi . -It occurred !to : me that within ; a few hours more I would probably bare lost all my winnings, then I could draw on htm ; for enough to , sta rt in wit b again. But I was so absorbed in the game that. I doubt if this more, thlo flashed through my mind." i ; 1 "1 - didn't get cleaned out , that day, but I did within a week. I didn't have .enough money to buy a breakfast with. 1 was walking along the street looking longingly Into restaurants when who should come along but Tom Andrews. ' 1 . was much obliged to you for that loan you made me the .other day he began. v-':;' r " ' : 1 l " What loan?. Too wouldn't believe It, but ! bad forgotten all about the $0)0 1 . had sent him. Then all of a sudden it all came back to me. : ' - You're lust the man I want. I said. I'm strapped Let me have a hundred or two to begin again.' 1: ; : v -He lookeil kind a blank. Tm awfol sorry. he said. "1 Vanted that money for a friend, not for myself. He bad once n red me from ruin. The day I sent to yon be came to me and said that he bad tbe prettjest opportunity of making a big spec you ever saw. All be needed was $G0a Welt, It put me In a very unpleasant position. :I was under a great obligation to him. and yet 1 hadn't the money for him, so I told him that 1 thought I could borrow It for him. but as he was go--lng Into a speculation with It I thonght the lender should be Interested In his profits If be made any; ' I knew yon took flyers with cards.' and I didn't know but you'd take one In another way. I wrote you all about It In the note I 6ent asking for the loan; which was- Didn't you read ttr v ? i -Xo.' I dldn'tr .I snapped. I may take chances oa cards, but I'm not such a fool as to loan money to a mnn I never heard of, to speculate with. Tet me bare half a dollar to buy a breakfast with ' ' : 1 1 r - ' -Tom let me 'bare $10.") 1 ate up a dollar of It and sank, the rest In the usual way. ; "' "v . ' " - " -' . ' -AlKint that time I' fell In love. .My girl wouldn't have me' unless 1 broke off gambling entirely (so aa I couldn't do without her. 1 promised" never to touch a card again. : We were married, and "to' please her. I went Into the safest business I could find. I set, up a corner grocery. ' But 1 must estab lish a trade, and the only way to do that was to trust those who' hadn't the money convenient to ay with. This drew in tbe class, of persons who run '.np big ' bills and let the grocer whistle for his money. :i I started In with a $10,000 capital that 1 had won at gambling, and It gradually got con verted Into uncollectable . debts. I shinned along for a while. . Then one morning the sheriff came down on me and closed me out. I went home to my wife and told ber that 1 didn't see .the difference In taking risks on 5 purchasers and on cards. '' At least what difference there was - was in favor of the cards. She said that the trouble with me was that I was no manager. If we ever did get set up a&ain she proposed to take the management of our affairs Into her own hands and would' show me that, while there was a good deal in luck, there were conditions on which one could -calculate almost to a cer tainty. ::J : rBut we didn't get set up In a hurry. We passed through several years of porerty that make my flesh creep to remember. We. bad several kids and to live In comfort required an Income we didn't have. I was tempted to try the cards again, but my wife wouldn't bear of it I was too old to get a situation; and I was so wracked with worry that my health broke down. " "One morning on opening my mail I found a letter from a man I had never beard of Inclosing a check for $84,500. Tbe letter said that some years previ ous he bad purchased with money loaned by me a suburban tract, which ) he. had laid out into lots ana naa re-j ceutly sold tbe last lot. He had promjj ised Thomas Andrews, through wnory the loan had been made, that the lend should have half the pronfs of t proposed speculation. I would fin check Inclosed for my share of profits less expenses, plus interes $r00 for seven years. "Waving the check aloft, I to my wife, 'It's all luck and n pise.' "Having read the letter she rd coolly, 'It isn't luck with th it all; It's business.' - 'How do you knowT I "'He's put in the interes loan.'
