Of the oflcorp count for vn,tlr moro than ther

OF the offlcerp count for vastly moro than they
do In the case OF q railroad or bank. No one
would think OF buying a share In the earnings
OF a lawyer or a doctor or an artist. without
knowing something about the men, and
about the length OF time that they would
cnrry on their work II. especially, they
announced their determination to retire
after year or two. and hand over their
practice to successors yet to be aolected.
the risk OF loss by tho Investment would not be
esteemed slight one. This risk. however. 10
one that every investor In industrlals practi-
cally assumes. He buys share In the profits
OF n business which has been built mp By
the talents and industry OF one or two
men. with the knowledge that these men
arc to withdraw themselves as soon
as they conveniently can and be succeeded by
new men, who are much moro likely to DO In
ferior to them than they nre to be their equals
Striking illustrations OF tho result OF such
change arc furnished by the decline OF tho
dry goods business Of A. T. Stewart after his
death. and OF that OF Journeay Burnhnm al
ter the death OF those gentlemen. Mr.. Stew
arts business has revived under the manage
ment Of Mr.. wanamaker. but his accession
could not have reasonably been foreseen. and
the benefits OF II are reaped BY him, and not by
Mr. Stewards immediate SUCCESSORS.
Nevertheless. OF the multitude OF industrial
stocks on the market. some undoubtedly have
mort. and will prove to be safe as woh as lucra-
tive investments The difficulty 10 to select
them in advance from out OF the mass. and to
distinguish them from their loss valuable COM
petitors. To make the selection. qualifications
arc needed which but few men possess. Almost
any one can distinguish wheat from chah, but
financial bubbles are not so dlfferenti In appear
ance from solid concerns that tho inexport eau
detect the difference. Buying them for most
people is like buying tickets IN lottery or bet
ting on horse race. and nobody should en-
gage in It who cannot afford to lose the money
he puts In. MATTHEW MARSHALL.
