It's What You Save that Counts.
'Squire 8. M. McDonald, of Porter
township, was In Brookvllle, Monday of
thlt woek, and told the following story,
Illustrating tbo heading of this brief
article. For some time past he bad a
young man In bis employ, paying him
14 a month, with boarding, washing
and mending added, and no deduction
for rainy days. The young man bad
two brothers working In the woods, for
11.50 a day, and boarded. The 'squire
settled with his young man recently,
and paid hi in ISO In cash. The young
man went homo, taking his savings with
him. The brothers who had been work
ing In the woods came home about the
same time. There was a festival an
evening or two afterwards, which tbey
all attended. The young mon who bud
been receiving 11.50 a day and board,
had to borrow money from their brother
that worked for 114 a month, to pay
their way at festival. Remember, boys,
a ponny saved is often belter than two
pennies earned. Brookvllle Democrat.
We are acquainted with two brothers
who were working In a elty a few years
ago, one of whom then got a salary of
10"). 00 per month and tbo other one,
who was learning a trade, was getting
14.00 pur week and had to pay $3.00 per
week out of that for boarding, and it
wits not an unfrequent thing for the
fellow getting fiiS.OO per month to
borrow money from the ouo working for
14.00 per week. The fellow that was
getting 105.00 per month Is still working
on a salary and does not own a homo' of
his own, whllo the one that was gottlng
four dollars per week then is now in
buslnoss for himself and lives in a brick
house which he owns, Why the dif
ference ? Ono saved his money and
the other didn't.
