When we help the Belgians—which in humanity we should do- let uu make a vow to give at least equal If not a greater aid to those who are eufferinK right hi re among us. Char ity must not end at home. If we most short measure our expenditures In any direction and moat of us must—let ns take it out on ourselves and on our rich friends. Let us take It out In limiting our exehutiKO of Christmas glfis end cutting down our take-and pay-bark sociability. 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. HOGS, CATTLE OR MEN— WHICH?

INDOOR SPORTS 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. Copyright 19M. hy the McClure News paper Syndicate. Now York Ctty.

THE AUGUSTA HERALD, AUGUSTA, GA. 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 By Tad no one was near to her, "Try not to worry any more about that forged check. 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 meet Paul Van Buren. H. C. (To be continued.) 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. 1 —i i I— RUSS GRAND DUKE WOUNDED.
