The small Inves tor should not place his money In any enterprise that has a suggestion of speculation attached to it, but should invest in securities that ho can ex amine and appraise for himself, and alterward, If found desirable, hold the security assigned to him by the orig inal owner. Such investments place one in a position to know exactly what ho will bo worth in one month, I one year, or at any time. Mr. . Hj. McGurrin is president of tho Salt Uiko Security & Trust company and will gladly correspond with anyone desiring information or booklet on this subject. Security & Trust Bldg., 32-31 Main Street. n A NICE LITTLE MUDDLE. Springfield, Mass., has an odd tan gle in its police department. Tho chief detailed an olllcer to go out and collect evidence against some saloon men for Illicit whiskey selling, and in structed him to enter the suspected places and buy and drink whiskey and beer. Tho olllcer said ho did not drink, and did not caro to risk ac quiring tho habit by doing this sort of work. Tho chief insisted it was the duty of tho policeman to obey orders and would not rescind tho order. The policeman resigned rather than drink. When tho resignation camo betoro tho police board there was trouble. Tho chief stood by his position, and tho board divided in its opinions. Tho temperance peoplo mado qulto a row and took tho part of the olllcer. It seems that the town has n rule that no officer shall drink whllo on duty. If that isn't a muddle, wo don't know what Is. n Women Not Artistic. During tho last hundred years in France and England tho education of women has been more artistic than that of men. For more emphasis Is put upon music and drawing In girls' schools than In the corresponding In stitutions for their brothers. And yet Galton found, In Investigating nearly 000 cases, that 28 per cent males and 33 per cent females showed artistic tastes. In spite of tho larger oppor tunity which tho modern woman has to develop her artistic faculties, the results In tho two sexes are practical ly tho same. u Cleaning India Rubber Goods.

This will speedily make tho article clean. Set to dry in a cool breeze. THE GREAT MONEY LENDER. Russell Sage, Famous Financier, as Ho Really Is To-Day. Lindsay Denison writes tho follow ing description in World's Work of tho great lender of money as ho appears to day. The flguro of Russell Sago Is fading out of tho market place. Onco it was as certain a part of tho Wall street picture as tho flag on tho custom house, ns tho flying messenger boys, as tho swarm of men at tho door of tho stock exchange, incoming and depart ing. No, It was more certain; for Rus sell Sage observed no holidays except Sunday until his body broko down un der tho overreaching task set by his cold, grim hunger for innumerable dol lars. But the pale-blue eyes, though they are keener than tho eyes of most men at any age, have not the qu'ck and eager light which used to flu ill Into them In response to tho news of a bargain In prospect or achieved. Tho seamed gray face has lost Its power of meeting all appeals for generosity or mercy with complete- lack of expres sion; irritation and contempt show through som times; they are signs of the breaking down of tho sternest physical discipline for no real master of the game, whether It bo played with pennies between newsboys on the r,uib stone, or with banks and railroads In tho markets, willingly allows his faco to register any human emotion. His garments hang about him In homely lines, which have not changed in tho memory of any man. His appearance, his ways, his stinginess, his great wealth, have become a part of tho tra ditions of his country. Trees In 1637. Perhaps the earliest protection to trees In the colonies was In Massachu setts, for In 1037 Watortown was mov ed to pass a vote at town meeting "to mark the shade trees by the road side with a 'W and fining any per son who shall fell ono of the trees thus marked eighteen shillings." says Mrs Charles F. Mlllspaugh, In the Chan tauquan for June, Exeter, N. H was a close second, when In 1C40, regula tions were passed regarding tho cut ting of some oak trees. In 1703 the Massachusetts Agricultural Society offered prizes to the person who should cut the trees from the most land in three years; however, so alarming a decreaso in forest area was shown by reports received at the time that tho policy was speedily re versed, and prizes were offered for tho planting of trees and tho man agement of woodlots. . o Crockett and the Mules. When Davy Crockett sat In tho na tional legislature as a representative of the state of Texas ho had many clashes with men of moro education but less wit than himself. It is told of him that ono dny while standing In front of his hotel on Pennsylvania avenue, a drovo of mules trotted by under tho custody of an overseer from one of tho stock farms In Virginia. A Congressman from Boston, who was standing near by, attracted Crockett's attention to tho unusual sight, saying: "Hello there, Crockett; hero's a lot of your constituents on parade. Whoro are they going?" The celebrated hunter looked at tho animals with a quizzical glance, and then turning to the other said quiet ly, but with great emphasis, "They are going to Massachusetts to teach school."
