what better, and hopes were enter
tanned that nothing serious would come
of it. The next day he was reported
as steadily improving, but on Sunday
unfavorable symptoms set in, and on
the Tuesday following his physicians
announced that the attack of vertigo
had been followed up by paralysis.
Since then his condition was regarded
as hopeless and his death rs only a
question of time.
George w. Childs was one os the most
remarkable men of modern times, and
one of the few successful men who
made a fortune while conducting his
business on the basis of the golden
rule. 1t is doubtful if there were q
half dozen other men of his wealth
and extensive interests so universally
esteemed by employees and associ-
ates. Mr.. Childs was accessible to every
one, from the Office boy to the huniblest
applicant in search of work. With
out affectation or pomposity he well
coined all who wished to see him on
any reasonable errand.
Much has been written about Mr..
Child's noble deeds, of his generosity
to his employees, of his kindness to
their families in bereavement or dis
tress, and the world is familiar with
his efforts to increase the friendly feel
ing between the people of England and
America
