POVERTY THE INCENTIVE THAT INSPIRES MEN T0 GREATNESS

Don’t Moanl, Because You Cannot Give Your Children Advantages The Rich Have

The bitter wail of near-l eve mother with u. limited income is that she cannot give her chlldreg thewadvantagcs that rich children have; Whlflh 11168-118. when you come down to brass tacks. that she cannot give

I them mink coats, debut parties. hi h-POWBM! automobiles. or indulge them in l leness and wastefulnes. pay her sons out of scrapes and hire a press agent to build up her daughters as Glamour Girls. Doubtlcsis it is natural for s. Pool-man to feel that she has as 200G u Ylkht W spoil her children rotten as Mrs. Croesus has, but i. tiiigilt comfort some of these poor mothers t0 realize that their children are the lucky ones. and that they have privileges and advantages that, no- milllonaires sons and daughters ever have. To begin with, the poor woman's children have the greatest filth that God can bestow upon young- sters. ey have a real mother who tends them with her own hands. who cradles them upon her breast. who holds them nigh-t. within her arms and to whom they can _ go with all their litte joys and sorrows. They have a mother who forms their characters and who fits them to meet. the

" world in which they must live. The r little millionaires miss this great. advantage. They never have a. re mother. They are turned over to nwses and. tutors and governesses to rear. and they never have more than a formal acquaintance with the lady in a beautiful negligee to whom they are takento say good morning, or who looks in on them to say good night. as she is starting out. to a party.

SUBSTITUTES NOT GOOD GUIDES _

Hirclitlgs teach them all they know of right or wrong, of wisdom or folly. and the results are seldom pretty. Nurses, governesses or tutors don't turn out the kind of men and women that Mother does who puts her heart in her 10b. Science has provided us with many valuable sub- stitutes for the real thing. but nobody vet has devised u synthetic mother that would really work. _

Poor mothers lament that they cannot give their children the ad- vantages of education. yet more scholars have graduated from the College of Hard Knocks than ever have from the nigh-priced universities. Ninety per cent of the mcn and women in this country who have risen to promi- hence and who are doing the big things were boys and girls who went to night school, or worked their way through college, or who educated them- selves by reading. ,

They were the children of the poor. starving for_ knowledge, who seiz- ed upon every opportunity to learn that came their way. not the pam- pered children of the rich who went to college to amuse themselves and whose parents vainly tried no thrust an education upon them.

OTHER ADVANTAGES

Another advantage tliatpoor children have and rich children miss is necessity. That l8 the driving force that sends people on to success and develops whatever latent power of mind or body that is in an individual. Riches, luxury, ease paralyze energy and ambition, 1t is o, rare thing lor the children of the rich to accomplish anything worth while. yet they are as talented. as intelligent. as capable in every way as the poor boys and girls who outstrip them in the race of life. _

But thcvhave everything that makes existence soft for them, 5o why worry? It. is the desire for the luxuries they have never had, for the place in the sun they crave, that makes the poor girl and boy harden their muscles and stiffen their spines until they climb to the top of the ladder.

The poor mother grlcves because she will have no fortune to leave to her children when she dies. but the necessity that, has taught. them how to work, how to stand on their own feet. and the value of money. will safeguard their future more than any inheritance would. For it. is a platltude that it is but two generations from shirt sleeves to shirt sleeves in this country. As a rule the children of the rich go through the money their parents left so poor and helpless as those who only know how to spend money. not. to

make it. BETTER CHANCE FOR. REAL MARRIAGE

Mother breaks her heart because she lacks the money to launch her daughters in society and dress them like the Queen o! 5116mm but She might dry her eyes if she noticed that the poor working girl has a bet- ter chance to make a good marriage than the millionairess, because she is thrown in close contact with the ambitious and clever oung men who are going places and will take their wives with them, wh e the rich girl's only choice of a husband l5 mnong playboys. Also. the poor girl knows she is not married for her money and she has a better chance of keeping out. of the divorce court than her rich sister has.

Someone once said to a rich, self-made man: "You have son every advantage in the world." "Yes." replied the father, but the greatest of all. Poverty." Iiet the mothers who grieve over not giving their children adyantagesfezneanber that reply.

LIVE Dear Miss Dix—wllat between two people who have not, for many years, been subject to one‘s whims and fancies? INQU . ANSWEiR-Very doubtful I should say. After we have reached mid- dle age our habits are stronger than our heart throbs. and if we have been used to being free to come and go as we pleased. to have no ones pleas- ures and comfort to consider but our own. and especially not to have any- one who is privileged to criticise us and tell us when to get on or off. we find it very hard to adapt ourselves to a husband or wife. We are like the hero of the old song who warbled: “When 1 was single my pockets

CHAPTER XVI “THAT MAN . . ."

The car containing Van Kronen swung by, leaving a cloud of dust behnid it. Bond was not surprised at seeing the pseudo-Dutchman in the neighbourhood. Keeplni an 6Y0 on him. apparently.

Delma, on the other hand, was frightened. “That man . . ." She whispered, a catch in her voice.

Bond tried to reassure her. “Take it easy! You're looking quite scar-

They were back in the grounds of Sunninglioime by now. and the head gardener began to tackle Del- ma about some alterations she had been proposing to have made on the west terrace. Bond was glad of the interruption, which brought to _an abrupt end a personal discussion which had become embarrassing.

He moved slowly away. anu began mounting to the terrace. while Dei- ma and the gardener talked. She was a little piqued over this when at last she reloiued him. catching up with him on the broad sweep of terrace before the house.

"It's rather presumptuous of me to be altering your property." she said, a trifle breathless from haste. “That's why I wanted you to stop. suddenly remembered that wont be here after the lease ends- perhaps, not even many week:

"Two o1‘ them have cameras—"

"Take my advice and hop indoors by those open library windows. You haven't been seen. yet.“

Delma freed her elbow. and Bond heard her chuckle as she sudccnly vanished in the snadeu interior of the house. l-lc strode on along tile terrace and thrust himself into the group. the butler appealing to ‘him. obviously being glam to be relieved of further responsibility.

"You're sure of that? Where il Miss Vivian? We want to see her."

"Can't be_ done!" Bonc shrugged. laughing. “cue refuses to see any- 0ll6-—8lld lvnss Vivian's the sort to stick to what she says."

There followed a barrage of ques- tions flung tit-Bond himseiff.
