A Real Flan
It is pretty hard to assert your independence and
defy the world, when you have an empty stomach
and an empty pocketbook. If your bluff is called,
then what?
The prudent man who has saved a little, who has
a reserve at the bank to tide him over a month or
two, isn’t so afraid of sickness nor such a coward
about being out of a job. A bank account is a stimu-
lant to real manhood. The larger the account the . ^
account the firmer the footing. It breeds self-con-
fidence, is a proof of efficiency, and'an ever-present
resource in time of need. It’s not wbat a man earns
in a year, that gives him a surplus at the bank,
it’s what he saves.
