When we help the Belgians—which

make a vow to give at least equal If
not a greater aid to those who are
eufferinK right hi re among us. Char

direction and moat of us must—let
ns take it out on ourselves and on
our rich friends. Let us take It out

We are facing a very unusual sea
son. The poor at our doors are suf
fering, so are those heartbroken and
bereft people of Belgium, who only a
few months ago were a prosperous,
happy and unterrorised people. Wo
cannot let our Associated Charities
languish here in August*. It .would he
the height of cruelty, it Is not a
question of choosing between these
good deeds. We must do for both,
and do to the utmost of our capacity.
The appeals from Belgium stir our
hearts, but because w»* hear this cry
of distress across the seas we cannot
deafen ourselves to the CiUi of our
own suffering poor. Kvery real act of
charity means a sacrifice. This year
our sacrifices should he heavy.

Hilly I’ig and Mr. Dog started off,
but every few minutes Mr. Dog would
see unmet litr>g to ehu.se, and off ho
would go, leaving Hilly Pig standing
In the road.
“If you think I atn going to stand
here In thn road and wutt for you,"
snld Hilly Pig, “ you are very much
mistaken What fun do I get out of
it, 1 should like to know? 1 think It
la about time wn asked somebody for

"You might do as much for me.”
•‘Me might have something green to

he put his bead in again and soon he
worked his way Into the hole.
“I was sure I smelled stew cooking,"
he said, as he walked into Mr. Rabbit’s
house, “and if there Is anything I love,
It is stew. I am on my vacation, and
l am sure you will let me stay to din
ner.”
“As long as you have sent Mr. Dog
along and ure alone,” said Mr. Rab
bit, "I will be glad to have you take
dinner with me."
Then Mr. Rabbit spread a cloth on
llie table and put on two bowls and
two spoons, and then he put on two
small dishes and two spoons.
“Dessert," thought Billy Big. “I won
der what he has for dessert.” Billy
Big ate and ate of the stew, but he
saved a place for the dessert that he
felt was sure to come, and Just as Mr.
Rabbit was to get it and was bringing
it to the table, "Bow-wow-wow" came
In a growling tone from the door of
Mr. Rabbit's house and so frightened
him that he dropped the dish on the
floor.
But Billy Pig jumped and saved
most of It, for it was Ice cream, and
he hml no thought of losing It for any
hark lie ever heard.
"Oh! there is that tramp, Mr. Dog,
again," said Mr, Rabbit. “He may
havo come back for you. Go out and
tell him to go away.”
“Oh, let him hark," said Billy Pig,
spooning up the ice cream. "Get a
spoon and eat your dessert. Don't
mind him.”
"I don't think I care for any,” sakl
Mr. Rabbit, going away back in a
dark place in Ills room.
When Billy Big finished the cream,
he thanked Mr. Rabbit for his hos
pitality and told him If he ever came
his way, to cell and his mother would
be glad to give him a good dinner.
When Billy Big went outside, there
was Mr. Dog lying on the ground, with
his nose close to the doorway of Mr.
Rabbit’s house. He Jumped up when
ho saw Billy Pig. "Where is the world
have you been?" he asked. “Where Is
the rabbit?”
"tih, come along; he isn’t In there at
all," satd Billy l’ig, walking away.
"That Is queer. I am certain 1 saw
hint go In that hole," said Mr. Dog,
“but 1 am getting hungry, too, and we
must stop at the first place we come
to and get our dinner."
"Oh! I don't feel very hungry, after
all," said Billy l'lg "I think 1 will
rest under that shady tree. 1 really
feel the need of a nap."
Home time 1 will tell you more
about Hilly Big’s vacation and how
Mr. Dog brought the doctor, and found
out he had eaten his dinner.

HOW HELEN HELPED
CHAPTER X.—A STRANGE APPOINTMENT
HELEN WENT TO MEET PAUL VAN BUREN.
' Helen told Prank that the whole office
knew of the forgery, and on account
of his former drinking some of the em
ployes suspected Prank of being the
guilty person. One of them said to Hel
en, not knowing hcA friendship for
Pronk. "1 don’t see why the old man
keeps him on the Job anyway, the way
he hits the booze." And Helen answer
ed, “Perhaps the reason Is that he can
do any three men's work around here,
and as for the whiskey, he doesn’t drink
at all any more. Some of you would get
along a whole lot faster if you would
copy after him In some things Instead
of knocking him every chance you get."
As Prank was dictating the iinswd's
to the morning mail to Helen she no
ticed he was greatly worried and ab
stracted. Finally, she said to him when
THE WAYS OF THRIFT
FRUITS OF EXTRAVAGANCE.
(By S. W. Straus, President,
American Society for Thrift.)
What has been the major cause of
the stupendous losses in the United
States during the last ten years in se
curities of the ''wildcat” sort? Ex
travagance. In England this has been
true, but has been particularly true In
this country, ldke the huge waste in
over-dress, over-eating, over-drlnklng,
lit the buying of the frivolous Instead
of the useful the rich have set the
had example. Without the rich the
flotations of now worthless so-called
securities would not have been pos
sible and the fifty millions of savings
would not have been captured by the
schemer and wildcat promoter.
Those who are rich have much to
answer for. for the prodigal spirit
which has made feed spending seem
j more to be desires! than conserving.
Their extravagances have been apKl
by those not financially able to do so.
Today the luxuries of yesterday are
thought to be necessities. Vast ex
penditures for the useless created de
mands for business based on luxuries
which .are at the sacrifice of business
based on necessaries of life. The cost
of living has advanced and the har
vest of the scheming promoter has
been possible
Now. under the pressure of the Eu
ropean war, a radical change should
be made The man with a surplus
above neoossary living expenses
should not forget his responsibility to
Invest that wisely in ways to relieve
the distress of unforiunates Rut he
should do more. The soundness of a
ration In the day of trial is determin
ed by the thrift of the people and here
In America more thrift is needed.
Thrift and not extravagance should be

Frank; both of us know who did it. and
I'm sure we’ll find a way to trap him.
We'll have to make him confess, though,
for I'm certain Old Man Van Buren
would never believe his son did It any
other way.”
That afternoon Frank saw Paul Van
Buren In the office talking to Helen,
and, strange to relate, Helen appeared
to be deeply Interested in what he was
saying. This semed strange to Frank,
for he knew how Helen detested the
mere sight of young Van Buren. That
evening saying nothing to anyone about
where she was going. Helen went to

encouraged in every city. Thrift
alone will reduce the average cost of
living; thrift only should be the cr
umple of the people who have all the
advantages of education and environ
ment.
Here in this country we have great
problems In the future financing of
the railroads and our cities, but of
i more Immediate interests Is the fl-
I nanclng of the rebuilding of our cities
'in ways to stop the enormous annual
fire waste. I feei a real personal In
terest in this task, believing the first
mortgage real estate bond has a most
i Important part to play In our national
j history. But from my business ex-
I perience as head of an Investment
'hanking house and from study of con
iditions in the United States and in
Europe before the war 1 urn convlnc
icd that a great re-ftdjustment, even
It-) the public school education, Is a
' necessary step In this country. If the
1 lest of soundness is to be applied to
the United Stales at the end of in
j other ten years there must be much
'done In the meantime to promote
greater thrift.
