Of organization and management OF indus

MAKING and spendino None.

Formerly men were trained to spend
money. not to make it; now they are
trained TO make money, not to spend
it. The result Of this development is
that most of the rich in England now
do not know how to spend their wealth
intelligently. They do not know good
food from bad food, good wine from
bad wine, good cigars from bad cigars,
and good pictures, statuary or furni-
ture from limitations. Their only stan
dard of value is the price, and so
prices have gone up all round. AS it
is taken for granted by them in their
ignorance that the dearest article is
the best, they buy it, and the cunning
tradesman naturally increases his
prices to obtain their custcn.-London

as he told how the secretary while
on his recent hunting trip in South
Carolina filed a coiored woman full
of shot, installing her for a turkey.
The president put few fine touches
on the story and before he had fin
ished it he had the secretary buying a
fcck of chickens at fancy price in
order to pacify the angry negress.
