Prom th Cblcaco Times Herald By dint of much economy nnd deny ing themselves tho theatre and ex pensho dinners and fine clothes, tho young South Side woman and her hus band had accumulated a few hundied dollars, which was drawing Interest In a hank on La Salle street The pru dent wife, alarmed by the stoiles ot hank fnllures, thought It best to draw out the little hoard and invest It In a largo woolen stocking, but her hus band argued otherwise. They discussed tho matter every day, and finally the little woman was seized with a great Inspiration, she would talk It over with tho banker. But she said nothing to her husband about this resolve. Bright and eaily Monday morning she re paired to the bank, had an extended conversation with tho cashier nnd re turned home, radiant and happy. "When her husband returned to dinner she nnnounced that she had determined to leave the moncv in tho bank. "Well, what hns como over you to cause this change of mind?" he asked, "Oh, I'm sure tho money Is quite safo there, nnd I do not want to lose th lnttiest," "Why are you sure?" "I went down to the bank today and had a talk with the cashier and he told me they were not going to fall." "Oh, ho did, did he?" "Yes he did, and he was so nice about It. I Just asked him right to his faco If the bank was going to fail nnd he lnughed at mo and said it had no such intention." "So you did not draw out your money?" "Why certainly not. I did not even take my pass-book." "I'm mighty glad of that. If you had drawn the money ou might have bought a gold brick on the way home, providing the vender had assured you that It wns all right." "George, you talk like one possessed. What In the world do I want of a gold brick, although I lead In tho papers that gold wns always good and now what are you laughing at7 you are always poking fun a me." But George did not explain what ex cited his mirth, and tho poor little woman has a suspicion that he is smoking too many strong cigars.

From the Chicaco Chronicle Tn these days of tuigld eloquence, when public speakers seem to vie with one another to see how many trlplo- Holnted words they can lug Into a speech, nnd seem to scorn tho strength and beauty of short words, an nddresj delivered mnny ears ngo by A. P. Kdgerton, of Ohio, hns peculiar weight, and Is an eloquent argument in faor of short, direct methods ot speech. Mr. Kdgerton Is a former member of con gress, nnd was civil service commis sioner tinder Piesldent Cleveland. Tho nddrcss wns delivered In 1S82 nt the commencement of the Tort Wayne High school. In Indlnnn, and while it wns lmptomptu nnd not at all a studied effort at monosyllable diction, eaeh of tile words It contnlns Is a monosyllable. Not only that, but ns nn oratorical effort It ranks high. The address Is as follows: "This day wo close for the year the Tort Wayne free schools, nnd we now part with ou, the girls and boys we are no moio to teach. "I snv girls and boys, for when three scoro and ten years have come to you you will be glad to have your fi lends .say that health and peace of mind have kept your heaits warm; that you wear no brow of gloom, ar- not borne down with age, but still, In heart, are 'girls and boys ' When these years crime, nnd I hopo they will come to nil, the tide of time will roll back and tell ou of your schooltlme days, when the fair, the kind, nnd th true found love, but l.ilso heart found no friend, no tongues to praise. These days brings i Ich gifts to age, and when j on shall cease to think of them your fire has burned low nnd your light has gono out. You have been here taught in the hope that the free schools of Fort Wayne would help to make you of use to your friends and to the world, would give you faith In all that is good and true, nnd lead you to seek work, for that you must seek nnd do If jou would have a good nnme, wealth, a home, a charge to keep or a trust to serve. Go forth with a bold, true heart to seek tho work for you to do. "Keep In mind that tho hours to work run through each day and that Gou's greit low of life Is, 'In tho sweat of thv fuco shalt thou eat bread.' "Now, for you, young man, this truth Is told, "O'j whio you will through the world nnd you will find on tho front door of shops nnd mills, of stores and bnnks, nnd on ships, on farms, on roads In deep mines where men toll for wealth; where liwa are made that make some men too i Ich nnd men of worth nnd woik through nil our land ton pom; where men by law mo taught to plot with sin, to spurn the light, thnt charge and cost nnd spoil mnv make old 'Quirk's' law firms rich, where law Is so plead that tho judgo must guess to find what's law, where quacks most fight o'er slek men's pains and dend men's bones; whoie types are set and none to mind the proofs, where priests do preach and pray and where schools nro taught this sign; 'Brains Will rind Work Heie.' "Don't fear. Step up and nsk for work; brnlns will get it. Don't let 'I dare not wait on I would' like tho cat that loves fish, but dares not wet her foot. "If it be said. 'What ran you do? Will you learn a trad? sav, 'I havo none, but I enn learn ono and put brains in It.' When you go to a place where brains should hunt for woilc and be sure to find it. It may be said to you, 'Do you see that plow ? Can you hold and drive It deep' That plow, in its wise use, gives nil men food. "Do you see thnt wheel nnd that crank and thorc shafts and that press, and do you hear tho lush and tha hiss of the steam which moves them? Can you moke and hold and run them? Can you build and drive the works nnd wheels which make tho wealth of tho earth and cause it to roll and to float to and fro from place to plnce, where it is tho best for man to uso it? "Can you spin the thread nnd weave it which makes robes for kings and silks for tho rich and vain, and drees Jor the poor, and all that skill and art havo wrought by loom and hand for man's use. "These things are all shot through with threads of light the light of mind and nrt and skill which shines each day more bright and dims all tho old by some new-found light as tho years go on."
