PARTNERSHIPS.

A very large share of the business Of the
country, and nearly all the more import.
ant and extensive business. Is conducted
by corporations and partnerships.
We are dealing now with partnerships,
which T. the ordinary method OF carrying
on business, although the corporate form
il growing in favor, owing TO the facility
of read diustment or sale OF interest in stock
companies.
A partnership Is the union of two or
more individuals acting under a contract
whereby they mutually contribute their
property or labor for the purpose of max
ing profits jointly.
This is legally called n 90 partnership
Partnerships may mo formed for the
carrying on of any business which an in
dividuai has right to carry on.
An agreement To- bring property to-
gether does not constitute partnership,
but an agreement TO buy and sell does.
The evieence of partnership Is COM
munity of profit. The partners may
stipulate between themselves as to liability
for losses, but this stipulation cannot
affect tho claims OF third parties, to whom
all the partners are liable
One partner may contribute all the
capital or all the labor, and there is time
worn saying about the capital and tn
experience changing about in the course
of partnership.
A silent partner is one whose name does
not generally appear TO the public rs
uartDer, but who is TO all intonts ana pur'
poses "a partner, with the same rights
and liabilities as his fellows. He is legal
ly known rs a special partner. -
LIMITED LIABILITY PARTNERSHIPS
In the case of limited liability part
nership the limit of responsibility Is liked
by statute. The partnership must be
created by written contract and public
al 81 o th.R
mariners, and of the amount OF capital
contributed by the special partner or
partners, and this amount must be paid
to secure for the partners the beneht OF
limited liability.
IL the req uuirements of law are not
strictly complied with, the partners become
subject To two common rules OF unlim-
tied liability for the debts OF the partner
ship.
A profit sharer is not always a partner.
In many cases employees, even down TO
porters and messenger boys, received n
commission or remuneration IropOrtiOned
to the profits ana yet they are not part
ners, tho amount paid TO them being sim
ply "a part of their compensation Tor ser
vices and given in that particular form
I'm order 10 stimulate their interest In the
business.
The distinction between the partner
and tho employe who is merely profit
sharer is that the latter receives salary
or wages propoTtioned to the profits
without having n specific interest In the
firm, while the partner receives his shar
OF the profits not by way OF compensation,
but by virtue of his right as member
OF the firm.
Profit sharing with employees Is grow
ing custom, especially In the cases OF eIn-
ployes who hold highly responsible places
and upon whose faithful and efficient
management depends the welfare of the
business.

A Rhode Island representative of the
United States Investor writes to that au-
thority: "The change In the textile
mills in Rhode Island from what they
were one year ago to what they are today
is remarkable. One year ago there was
hardly a wooden mill to bc found working
a full force of help. but today it Is the
exception to find mill unemployed, and
several of the largest mills are having
yarns made outside to keep up with orders
and to get.sample pieces out on time for
customers And he adds that the worsted
mills have been so rushed with work that
Decoration day was not observed by some
