The raiser saves but spends noth ing. He secures only the meager sat isfaction of watching his pile of money grow. The wise exponent of thrift and sound investment has the com forts and pleasures of life and saves at the same time. The foolish man spends his money for what he neither needs nor really wants; does not at tain the comforts- and lasting pleas ures of life and saves nothing.. If the modern miser of Chicago had spent wisely he would have had years of comfort and happiness instead of years of squalor and vjant. V he had saved wisely he would have had the love and respect of his family and as sociates. If he had invested wisely he would have been competent to han dle his own affairs. “Waste not—want not” is still the modern-axiom of thrift but “want not" must not be interpreted to meair not wasting Abe. things that make life worth the living.
