A clergyman speaking in his pulpit
recently gave utterance to the often
repeated declaration that no man ever
honestly accumulated million dollars
His mistake was in neglecting to spec
ify employments. The statement would
perhaps be true that no man ever hon
estly earned a million dollars laying
bricks, but it is also true that a man
could honestly earn a million dollars
by his services in caring for great in
terests worth hundred millions.
There has been at least one instance in
which a man was paid during a few
years three times million dollars for
exceptional service in behalf of vast
pecuniary interests, and not one of the
wise business men most interested,

honest and faithful work he had done,
