Friends hip.

Friendship has its duties You
owe YOUR friend sympathy IN h sor-
rows and in his JOYS. You owe hin
confidence and the information about
yourself which Confidence implies.
Yet that Information: Is to lie given
with certain reserve, so that you do
not seem to force your affairs upon
him, or to make him responsible for
YOU. OF crises in which he could not
aid you, Or would be panied by his
inab lity, it is often wise to say moth
ing. There is fine subtle inst net
Which guides in such matters. How
ever near your friend brings you to
him. you are to respc t his individu-
ality Information that is purely
personal you must wait for. II he
co not volunteer it: be satisfied
that he has his rea ,onS Q not seek
above all. do not claim-it is a
right Of your friendship. BE gener.
Gus, not eXactIng.

On the point Of buying up job lot OF
Southern railroads is not altogether
unwelcome The concentration OF
great railroad interests under the
control Of ODe man or one set Of men
is not desirable as a general PROPOSE
ton, but it has certain advantages.
In the case Of the Eanderbilts the
advantages are distinctly perceptiblc.
Beginning with the old Commodore
the NandeTbiIts have always sought
t. conduct their railroads as business
enterprises rather than as medium:
for stick jobbing. II the Wander
bits secure control Of the Southern
roads'uhe travelling public will reap
the benefit The lines will be put ia

bc made the best possible. The
VanCcrbilts are not exactly philan-
thropists, but they know how to RI q
railroads, and that is all the public
