BEGINNING with the first day of Janu-
airy, the Pennsylvania Railroad compa-
ny's pension system went into effect, and
on that date about 900 of its employees
were retired on pensions. Hereafter all
officers and employees not yet 20 years
of age will be retired and pensioned on
the first day of the month following their
attainment of that age. The pension will
be equal to per cent for each year of
continuous service of the average salary
for the last ten years, and this. with the
savings OF prudent employee, ought to
provide for him handsomely. The
emount of money thus to be paid annually
is estimated at SO .ooo.o year. For a
corporation with capital OF 81 sc. oee, 900
and earnings of 5000. coo a year this.
to be sure, is not tax which viii be
fel, by stockholders or by the public. 1t
is more the spirit of the thing and the
way in which it was done, the officials
declaration to its employees that fidelity
to the corporation brings reward to the
individual, that make the incident both
significant and creditable.

THE PAPER OF THE PEOPLE,
FOR THE PEOPLE AND
WITH THE PEOPLE.
HONEST IN MOTIVE
FEARLESS IN EXPRESSION
SOUND IN PRINCIPLE.

A newspaper is an educator; there
are all kinds of educators, but the
man who spends money judiciously
and literally is better able to impart
his knowledge than the man who has
little or nothing to spend.
THE SUN is the highest type OF a
newspaper.
THE SUNS reports from all parts OF
the United States are unsurpassed.
The SUNS Cable Service is the
finest known; the troubles in the
Philippines and in South Africa de-
mand competent correspondents
and vast expenditure of money and
labor in getting the news. When you
get THE Sun you get news and in
telligent presentation of facts with it,
as well as carefully prepared articles
of editorial writer's of highest stand
ing. When you read a daily paper,
whose principal recommendation is
its cheapness, you get the dregs-
generally very poor dregs at that.
