A MILLIONAIRE PHILANTHROpysT

Phillip ID. Armour, the big Chicago and
Kansas City packer, one of the shrewdest
and most discerning of employers, has
worked great reformation in the ranks
of his employees.
The following story of Mr.. Armour is
related by correspondent of the Chicago
Tribune:
Several months ago one of his clerks
went to the office in the morning with the
glaze OF intCXication still in his ewes. Mr.
Armour noticed his condition, but said
nothing until later in The day. Then he
called the young man into his private
Office and demonstrated with him. The
clerk promised TO mend his ways and for
a time abstalned from all Intoxicating
drinks, but the taste was too strong for
MIN. Again he promised faithfully TO
reform and again he broke his word. He
was man OF brilliant promise and MIR.
Armour took deep interest in him, but
he was finally discharged. Unable to OBJ
lam other employment he rapidly drifted
down the grade and pawned everything
the brokers would take so that he could
buy whisky. Oue day while Mr. Armour
was walking TO his office he met the
man-clrty, ragged, almost tramp
IN appearances. Come with me-"
said MIR. Armour, hailing a
passing cab. The young man looked at
him III astonishmeut, but got into the ca b
ana was driven TO IA clothing store Ar
nour htted him out with new clothes aud
toId the Grunkard TO come to the office in
the afternoon. The young man did so and
MAS gIveu check for $780, payable to the
order of the keeley company, and enough
money 10 pay his fare stay there four
weeks" WAS his injunction, 'and il YOU
need more money draw on me. When You
come back, II you think you are cured, |
VIII give you your old position; If you
think you are not cured, l don't want to
see you"
The young man is now occupying a re-
spon~iOle desk in the office where he IS
willing to work his arms off for the one
who saved him from the gutter

Kelley cure and has sent at least loo of his
employees 10 be cured. The remark is fire.
