In the event of a receivership, the
Philadelphia plan, he continued, is a

The
Economy
of Brick.
MR. BOWSER lives ih
a frame house in the
suburb of Lowdow'n
Heights. On his last bill
for painting he read the
motto, "Save the surface
and you save all."
"Well," he said to Mrs. Bow
ser, "it will cost all I've got
in bank this month just to
save the surface. I wish thoy
had sense enough to build
houses of something that is
the same all through."
"Some people have," replied
Mrs. Dowser. "You know I
wanted to build this house of
brick, but you said it would
cost twenty per cent more.
Brick never needs paint to save
the surface. It never shrinks
nor cracks. A brick house
would have saved us three "tons
of coal this last winter. And
you're paying twice tho brick
late for insurance, too. But
ft that's the way you save
g money."
H "Mrs. Bowser," he shouted,
H "I wish I had some bricks here
H to throw at you."
g "Better save them all to
KJ build with," said Mrs. Bowser,
H placidly.
e Wise women know thnt com-
g mon brick 'is the best and
S cheapest of all building ma-
S terials.
