Ex-Comptroller of the Currency,
A. R. Hepburn Of New York, vice
president of the City National Bank
where the Standard Oil millions are
deposited, is shedding crocodile
tears over the fate of the rich man
whom he fears will soon have to 90
to work. This is what he says:
"The return from wealth is growing
gradually smaller, while the return
from labor in this country is grow
ing larger. The man of wealth must
be prepared to adjust himself to
rapidly changing conditions. I'm
less he will bring his own ability and
energy to reinforce his money he
must change his mode of living and
adopt economies which have not
been necessary in bygone years.

All About Tortoise shell.

The finest tortoise shell comes from
the Indian Archipelago and is shipped
from Singapore. and much Of it is OBJ
tanned on the Florida coast of Ameri-
ca. There are three rows of plates ON
the back. called blades" by the fisher
men. In the central row are i've
plates, and in each of the others four
plates the latter containing the best
material. Besides these, there are
twenty-five small plates around the
edge of the shell, known as feet" or
noses" The biggest turtle does not
furnish more than sixteen pounds of
tortoise shell. Formerly the under
shell was thrown away, being consid-
cred worthless. but at present ii is
very highly valued for its dellcaey of
Coloring. Nowadays a very beautiful
imitation of tortoise shell is made of
cows horns.
