Bertha A. Rich Tells What Sav
ings Mean to the Newly
Made Family.
The new baby hue Just arrived. There
It lies with Its tiny bald head cuddled
closely In the hollow of the mothea'a
tirm. It really Is a line baby; unques
tionably the finest baby that ever was,
Such a plump, shapely little body—such
a well-shaped head—such bright eyes
that already show unusual Intelligence.
The mother fondles Its tiny fingers
lovingly and plans great things for its
future.
Her mental vision is keen, and she
ran already follow her eon's progress
thru the various stages of his career.
In school he Is always at the head of
his class: In college (for of course he
will go to college) he carries oft the
highest honors: In a business of his
own he prospers and becomes a great
and wealthy man. How clearly she can
see It all and how proud she Is even
now In anticipation.
Best of all, this dream may all be ful
filled. It rests entirely with the father
and mother to give the new baby the
right start In life. The start Is every
thing. Set the little baby’s feet on
the right road, guide him gently with
a firm hand, ahd when he can walk
alone he will not disappoint you. The
best start a boy or girl con possibly
have Is a savings account. You may
have wealth now, but by the time the
child Is ready for college or business
vour money may have taken wings;
then your boy or girl will lose this
chance of doing the best possible thing
for them. Begin right now and put
(5 In the bank every month for the
baby. That Is only a dollar and a
quarter a week, and no matter ■ how
small your salary you can spare that
much for baby’s sake. Keep this up
steadily until the child Is 21 years
old and he will have over 11,700 In the
bank to make his first real start In
life for himself. It may seem Impos
sible for you to do this Just now with
so many extra expenses, but try It for
a few weeks and you will find It quite
easy. If, however, you can not save (5
every month, aave $2, or even (1. U
really does not matter much about the
,'i mount, the one thing essential Is the
hank account Itself. By saving $1 a
month Carnegie, when a boy. got his
start In life, and can now spend mil
lions.
Talk this over with the child when
lie Is old enough .to understand, and
you will find him ready to further your
efforts and to add to his bank account >
whenever the opportunity ofTers Itself.
How many times do we hear men ex
plaining their “bad luck" In bualness
by saying: “It Is all my parents' fault;
they never taught me the value of
money. 1 was never made to save a
penny In my life.’’ Not very pleasant
for the father and mother to hear. Is It,
especially if they have not been savers
themselves and are dependent on this
non tor support? Young lather, talk
this over with your wife; you will find
her ready nnd willing to co-operate
with you. Start a savings account to
day for the baby. Lay the foundation
for his future. If there are two babies,
start two accounts, and in this way sow
the seeds that will In later years enable
you to reap an abundant result.

From The Glens Falls _ .
A writer recently contributed to one of
the leading magazines an article which
referred to the cave mentioned In J. Feni-
more Cooper’s "Last of the Mohleans" aa
being located within or near Cooperstown.
A Tittle research would have acquainted
him with the fact that the cave referred
to In "The Last of the Mohicans’’ is lo
cated In Glens Falls. Those who have
read the book above mentioned, and they
are legion, need not be told that Qlens
Falla enjoys the distinction which the
aforementioned writer would give to
Cooperstown.
Cooper’s "Last of the Mohicans" Is a
work of fiction, but the writer In gather
ing material for the book spent many
weeka In this vicinity and several times
traversed the war trail from Fort Ed
ward to the head of Lake George or Fort
William Henry. It was at the foot of the
Glen-at. hill that he laid eyes upon the
cave which he so graphically describes
and around which the gifted writer hat
woven, several of the most fascinating
chapters of the book. "The Last of tho
Mohican." has for vearx been described
by (he state educational department aa
one bf the books to be read by high school
students In preparation for the Regents’
examinations In American literature.
Today, as for years past, the cave Is
unmarked. Every summer thousands of
tourists pass within B0 feet of the famous
spot, little realizing the fictional elgntfl-
hotel, Rome, Ga., Wednesday night,’
were brought to this city for burial on
Friday. Interment occurred later In
Hill View cemetery. Relatives of the
deceased from Pensacola, Fla., attended
the funeral.
Mrs. Grace Golden.
The funeral of Mrs. Grace Golden,
aged 75, who died Thursday afternoon
at her home, 171 South Pryor-st., was
held Saturday morning at the Church
of the Immaculate Conception. The In
terment was at Oakland.
John Thomas Brysnt.
The funeral of John Thomas Bryant
was held Saturday morning at XJtoy
church and the remains interred ln the
church yard.
York State Historical association erect a
tablet designating the cave, hut the work
more properly falls upon the common
council. It Is as much the duty of the
common council to erect a tablet desig
nating Cooper's cave as It Is to erect
signs bearing the names of the streets.
True, the city ordinances do not require
this to be done, but proper regard for
the city's Interest makes such a move
Imperative. The cost of erecting a tablet
and constructing an approach to the cave
would be trifling, yet It would place with
in the reach of tourists the opportunity of
visiting one of the most famous of fic
tional points of Interest.

from a French woman, Harrlette J.

now that this experience did wonders for
me and fitted me for the years of hard
study and work which came afterward.
But what about other men who have
not been so fortunate? What about those
men between forty and fifty who sud
denly realize they “are getting old?’ The
stories of these men are tragedies in
many cases. At a time when they, should

were that he had “rehumatism,’’ had

Also, his neck nnd shoulders pained and

What was the trouble? What made
him seventy-five at only fifty-one?
I found he had no stricture at all—

apparently enthusiastically denied.
“Wo were told that we were too lat«*;
the hour had gone by when the people
of this state could be heard on the mut

HOWARD PIANO SALE
A WONDERFUL SUCCESS
Results of the Piano Manufacturer*’
Introductory Solo Highly
Satisfactory.
C H. Converse, who has been In At
lanta for several weeks, looking after
the manufacturers’ interest In the
Piano Manufacturer*’ Introductory «a!e
of piano*, recently held in connection
with the W. H. Howard Plano Com
pany, states that to say that the antici
pations of the Howard Plano Company
and the special sale* manager* in
charge have been realized would be
putting it mildly.
Mr. Converse states that they expect
ed a good many to avail themselves of
the unusual opportunity to purchase
plane-, at a remarkable saving during
the Introductory sale, but that the im
mense number that responded came a*
a surprise; that the results eclipsed all
expectations, and with the Howard
Company, which I* one of the heat
known music establishments ln Atlanta,
wishes to thank everybody for their
confidence In the concern, as well as the
E lanos, as evidenced by the great Burn
er of purchases.
Mr. Converse, who returns to hit
home In a few days, states that he re
grets leaving Atlanta, as he considers
It. one of the Itvest cities In the country.

When Englishwomen Smoked,
From Tho London Chronicle.
The Englishwoman of the seven
teenth century enjoyed the luxury ot
a clay pipe. A Frenchman ot that period
who vlelted this country had occasion
to spend the night at the Stag Inn in
Worcester, and he notes that It Is cus
tomary for ths English landladies to
take supper with "thts strangers and
passengers, and If they have daughtois
they are also of the company to enter
tain the guests with pleasant conceits,
where they drink as much as the men.
Moreover, the supper being finished,
they set on the table half a dozen pipes
and a packet of tobacco for smoking,
which Is a general custom, as well
among women as men.”
