Ante Mortem Generosity.

One of the richest of the rich men of
New York is distributing his fortune
among the people to whom he had in
tended to will it, reserving only suf-
ficient to insure himself a comfortable
income. A very sensible plan this is.
1t avoids all danger of family dissen-
sion arising from contesting a will, puts
an end to merely mercenary affections,
insure gratitude, and largely increases
the happiness of several people some
years earlier than gifts by bequest
would nave done. This ante-morten gen
erosity is almost peculiar to Amer ca.
The system of entail would practically
prevent it in England, if it we're de-
sired. In France, the Revue des Deur
Mondes notices the custom as a phenom-
enon of American character. Nearly
all our endowed schools and colleges
owe much of their possessions to living
be~nefactors. London's greatest chart
ties are the result of the gifts, during
his lifetime, of Peabody. The Work
ingwoman's Hotel of A. T. Stewart, and
his $4,000 gift to the poor women of
Chicago, are instances of this tendency.
William B. Aston has just donated
100000 to the Astor Library "for
present necessities" These are all
gratifying proofs of the true generosity
which gives without waiting for the
time when what it gives will be worth
less to itself.

A PHYSICIAN WHO HEALED HIMsELF.-
If a railroad director were lashed to
every locomotive, there would be fewer
railroad accidents, and if doctors had
to take their own physic before admin
istering it to their patients, fewer people
would be poisoned. DIR. Joseph Walker,
of California, took this course when he
first compounded the famous Vinegar
Bitters which now rank as an inestima-
BILE household remedy in all parts of the
United States. He healed himself with
this specific before he offered it ito the
world. He introduced it with a simple
statement of the manner in which he
had discovered its vegetable ingredi-
ents and been cured, while wandering,
sick and poor, among the California
tribes. He stated what the preparation
had done for. himself, and a few sufferers
from dyspepsia, b~iliousness, rheumatism,
lung diseases, and many other prevalent
disorders, believed him, tried the new
restorative and were more than satisfied
with the results. In this way the sale
of the Vinegar Bitters began, and we
mention the fact as an evidence hat in
this age of intelligence and inquiry,
nothing that is really valuable to man
kind can prove a pecuniary failure
even though it may lack the help OF
capital, and have to fight its way against
powerful opposing interests. Within
two or three months after its introduce
ton, the article became self-supporting,
and it now yields a magnificent annual
reyenue.-TCom.
