Baron de Hirsch was, when 90 years
Of age, engrossed in his many affairs.
He stopped, to the surprise OF every one.
in his midcareer, he marshaled his re-
sources and turned his active brain and
tireless energy TO the problem of re-
claiming his suffering coreligionists
from humiliation worse than slavery.
from starvation and destruction. His
first move was to offer to the car,
through this same chief Of the holy
synod, 90, 900, 900 francs for education
in Russia, to be applied without dis
tinction of creed or race, hoping that the
dissemination Of education, mechanical
end mental, would in the end induce q
better condition, from the lowest to the
highest Of the czar's subjects. But Rus
sian autocracy was framing laws to
limit, not to extend, the advantages OF
education and rejected the munificent
offer unless Baron de Hirsch would re-
move his conditions and permit the ex-
| penditure to be made as the car and his
| minister saw fit But Baron de Hirsch
was too we'll acquainted with Russian
officials to part with his money in order

the fact worried him. One day his
mother fell i'll and some one incau-
tiously commented on the sad state OF
affairs if his mother, too, should die.
Dick said nothing, but he kept up
great thinking. When his mother was
quite well again, one night at dinner
Dick, who was years old, suddenly
broke the silence with the question.
Mamma, why don't you marry AGAIN.
When the laugh which this unexpected
query raised had subsidized, his mother
asked Dick why he wanted her to marry.
well" was his slow response, show
ing that he had carefully thought 1T all
out, "then I'd have papa, and II you
died he could marry another lady ana
she'd be my mamma, and If he died she
could marry man and so I'd always
have papa and mamma. And then
Dick looked gIieved because his family
all laughed harder than they had before
