CHOOSES BETWEEN ' MONEY AND WIFE $50,"000 and a Gal. Ranch Look- I ed Good and Pa. Man Took It By DOROTHY DIX A poor young man In Pennsylvania lias recently had to make a choice be tween money nnd matrimony. A wo man-hating relative died and left him a comfortable littlo fortune on the con dition that he would never wed. The youth was engaged to a girl, but he promptly discarded her and qualified as a perpetual celibate under the will, saying in efTect: "I love my sweet heart, but, oh, you, plunks!" The young man's decision was a sordid but perhaps natural one. Fifty thousand dollars and a California ranch the amount of the legacy would look might good to most im pecunious youths. Besides which, a man might well argue that a wife Is an expensive luxury unyhow, so In accept ing the conditions of the bequest he would save money both ways—coming and going. Of course, on the other hand, it may be said that (lfty thousand dollars and a ranch are a pretty poor price for which to sell out the love of a wife, and the happiness of home, and of hav ing little children about one's knees. Wkat Monc.v lloexn't Muy Never to have any love 'out the mercenary love of mercenary women! Never to have any home but the barren shelter of bachelor quarters! Never to I feel the cuddling of a downy head against your breast! What -lands or money can pay a man for missing ] these? . Why, the chief good that a man gets out of money Is the pleasure of spend- ' ing it on those he loves, and if you take away those from him his gold Is counterfeit coin. It Is not legal tender 1 at the Mart of Happiness. Why does a man want to buy jewels, and soft silks, and filmy laces? To i deck out the woman he loves. Why , does he want to build beautiful and luxurious houses? To make a fitting shrine for the woman he worships. 1 What robs his toil of weariness, and ' makes his sacrifices sweet? Tire knowl- ] edge that he is keeping wife and chil- 1 dren soft and warm and safe in .the ( home nest. The fun that a man gets out of his labor, the precious reward that makes 1 it worth while, is paid over the counter 1 of hlme In his wife's smiles, In the I love-look in her eyes, in the faces of 1 little children watching for his return ] of an evening, and the rapturous cry of "Daddy," with which they run to meet him. What Money Burn Eliminate these and what does a man's money buy him? The indulgence 1 of vices that sear the soul and kill the • body. A few suits of clothes, each j exactly like the other. The indifferent comforts of hotel or club, and the so- J ciety of fat and tedious old rounders. 1 telling endless stories about them- 1 selves. When he Is sick the minis trations of a hired nurse. When he 1 grows old, the paralyzing conscious- j ness settling about his heart that he . has lived unloved, and will die un- . wept. It Is not a gay life, that of the old t bachelor, and the foolish youth who I has traded off his sweetheart and his I rlgh<Ho marry for a few thousand dol- I lars has sold his birthright for a mass ! I of pottage that will set heavily on his " stomach many a time in the long, lone ly years of the future. For the trut his that we can buy fleeting pleasure with money, but we cannot purchase abiding happiness with it. That must come from the lest and the peace of the soul, from the satis fled heart, and these have no price tag on them. WILSON CANCELS ENGAGEMENTS By Associated Press Washington, March 9.—President Wilson was still confined to his ben with a cold to-day, and as a result the usual Friday cabinet meeting and all other were canceled. "WAGGIE" GOES HIGH UP LADDER Newsboy at Third and Walnut Streets Now Proprietor of Big Book and Stationery Store jfUEraijf' WAGNER HOFFMAN From newsboy to proprietor of a large book and stationery establish ment is a big jump; but not so big when you consider that the fellow who made the jump has been in training for several years. Wagner Hoffman, who has been sell ing newsaper at the corner of Third and Walnut streets for fourteen years, quits to-morrow and on Monday opens up the book and stationery store at 438 Market street as owner—sole pro prietor. "Wag" was able to make the jump because he kept himself in training during those fourteen years. With him the business of selling news papers was evidently as worthy of applying sound principles as one Schwab considers them in the steel business, for he did just that, and as a result has joined the ranks of suc cessful businessmen. Hoffman purchased the store to-day from his brother, J. B. Hoffman. In the fourteen years "Wag" has been on the corner he has sold thou sands and thousands of copies of the Harrlsburg Telegraph. He has a wide acquaintance among Uie politicians of the State and has regularly supplied four Governors with his wares. "Gov ernor Tener was my best friend," "Wag" said this morning.

BEIDLEMAN BILL WOULD SAVE MONEY [Continued From First I'ugv] size. This has been done by Sen ator in order to win support for it among legislators who would not sup port the statewide bill because they did not,want to disturb the collectors in their own counties. "The bill is in the interest of good government. It will save the people of Dauphin county manyp thousands of dollars a year," said Senator Bei dleman to-day, commenting upon it. "The system no win use here is ob solete and costly. The receivership plan would work no hardship to any body bijt would prevent thousands of dollars of county taxes being fritter ed away each year in collectors' com missions. I have every reason to be lieve it will pass. Certainly I shall use my best endeavors to have it go through." Provisions of Hill The bill provides that uppjt its pas sage th ecounty commissioners shall appoint a receiver of taxes to hold office until January 1, 1918, or until his successor is elected or has quali fied. The bill prlvides that at the municipal elections next November a receiver shall be elected to serve four years, and every four years thereafter. The receiver is to have il salary of $3,600 a year, and he may appoint two deputies at $1,500 each and not exceeding two clerks at $1,200 each, and tho deputies are to have all the powers of tax collection conferred upon the receiver. The receiver Is to have an office in the courthouse which is to be open daily for the receipt, o flaxes. It is to be the duty of the receiver to mail a notice of the amount of taxes due tho county within thirty days after lie has received the tax dupli cate from the county commissioners, the notice to give full information as to when the same is due, rebates al lowed, penalties to be imposed, etc. To Sit In Kn< li District ' The reclver or one of his deputies will be required to sit at least two days In each city,'borough, town and township for the purposo of receiv ing taxes, one day during the period on which the rebate is allowed and one after tho expiration of tho rebate, thus giving all persons In the dis trict ample opportunity to pay their taxes at home. However, the money may be sent to or paid at the court house office of the receiver any time. All persons making payment of county taxes within ninety days from the date of notification would receive a five per cent, rebate and persons failing to make payment within six months after the date of notice would be charged flvo per cent, additional. Heavy penalties are provided for mis use of taxes collected or other irreg ularities.
