Timely BenevOlence.

The lavish manner in which Andrew Carnegie glves away his wealth to bene- At the present generation and also bene- fit future generations commands our respect and admiration. Mir Carnegie might have hoardsd every dollar of his wealth until his death, and then be- queathed to the legion of institutions the money which he has already given them and will continue to give them duriog his life. Only future genera tions would have benefited by that form of benevolence, the hoarding pro- cess. The present generation would not have been benefited. MT Carne- gie's form of benevolence benefits both the present generation and future gen erations and it is certainly worthy Of imitation and emulation. The present generations and present institutions need help. They need it now. They should not be deprived of immediate assistance which would be a thousand fold more valuable today than later on At the death of their intended bene- factors.
 h nearly every community are wealthy people who intend to bequeath money to charitable institutions, to churches. colleges, schools. cemetery associations, or various organizations, or for soldiers monuments, or other memorials. It would be infinitely bet ter if such persons made their gifts while living than to take the chances of having their wills contested and their wealth vanish through the courts of law or be diverted from the objects of their benevolence,
 In nearly every town some worthy society or institution is struggling to maintain its existance, some church ia handicapped with debt CT is striving to obtain parsonage, some organization is trying to raise money enough to build soldiers monument-in short in every town some worthy object is crippled by lack of funds. Persons who fly to the relief are public bene, factors, and their prompt assistance cannot be overestimated for it will maintain the exi.tance of such societies, institutions and organizations, where. As if assistance is withheld to be given only by legacy the probabilities are that many worthy objects will succumt before the legacies of their intended beneiactors become available. "Givine while living" is far better motto thar "Hoarding until death"
