Miser and Speculator.

CANDLES in great schemes dresses and
lives like gentleman-lik like great
many gentlemen put together, and all
of them very rich-and when he falls
he drags down with him thousands of
well-to-d do individuals, and along with
them the business and other legitimate
interests which give employment TO
thousands of laboring men and women.
Everybody holds the miser in contempt.
but everybody admires the prince of
the greatscheme. The latter has stables
crowded with horses which he never
sees. His different country and city
establishments are maintained at q cost
of thousands of dollars a week. His
family select their attire from home
storehouse as large as an average dry
goods establishment. His pleasures
are paid for in diamonds, and his path
is strewn with gold. When the miser
dies nobody is injured, and his grave is
soon forgotten; but when the prince
falls, there is wailing over wide space
of territory, for his extravaganza and
fall have taken the bread out of many
children's mouths.
1t is held, and perhaps properly
enough, that the law must not say to any
man: "You have enough; you must be
contented with that; you must not only
live, but let live; you must curb your
rapacity and permit others to have

of business. 1t has destroyed safety,

Most certainly there can be not many
more cases of wholesale scoundrelism
on the part of men in positions of trust
without creating panic whose melan-
choly effects may run through several
years. The gentleman miser must be
checked. The avarice which insists
upon millions for private use must be
stopped. Lorenzo Dow told of an ava
