WOMAN'S PlTIFUL DOWNFALL
Mrs. Mary Hall, who, according to
her husband, sacrificed her private
fortune in vain attempt to save
him from business failure, and who
lost her reason as result of grieving
over the failure, is thought to be
wandering about the country in
dazed condition. The husband, who
lives in Troy, N. Y, where he re-
Gently met disaster in business, ar
rived at Greenwich, Conn.,, recently
searching for his wife. He heard
that she was under arrest.
Mary Hall was arrested by po-
liceman, who thought her intOXicat-
ed. In court she proved that she
was not under the influence of alco-
hol, and she was released, and dis
appeared.
Hall said that he had traced his
wife to Buffalo from her home in
TLoy, and from Buffalo to Boston
and then to Brooklyn, where he lost
trace of her until he heard of her ar
rest in Greenwich. Hall explained
that his wife once possessed COM
Portable fortune or her own. When
he met reverses in business she in
sisted on giving up her property in
an effort to save him. She had made
the sacrifice eagerly, but when her
effort failed she became respondent
and disappeared.

II Ii q Losing Game Ia the Long Run

is gone and he has lost his job and Is
on his uppers the good fellow" busi-
ness doesn't get him anything. It's
poor fellow" then-another good man
gone wrong, and "the boys" are ready
to hail another good fellow" who has
the price.
We don't mean by this to say that
"the boys" are mercenary. They don't
altogether pass up a good fellow"
when he goes broke, but it isn't the
same. They say he hit the booze too
hard and couldn't stand the pace. They
feel sorry for him, but he is out of it.
His good fellowship doesn't excuse him
even in the eyes of his friends for hav-
ing thrown away his opportunity.
The young man who gets the sleep
his system needs, is temperate In his
habits, lives within his means and
shows up for work in the morning with
a clear eye and active brain-that's the
man business men are looking for
They want employees whom they can

some of the burdens off, and they won't
thrCAe them off on the employee who is

Cut it out, boys. There's nothing in
1t. There's a whole lot of nonsense in
that good fellow" business. You can't
fool the public very long by living be-
yond your means and keeping up ap-
pearances. There must be showdown
some time or other, and that means q
loss of self respect and many bitter ex-
periences. Many a bright and promis-
ing business man has failed because
he tried to travel in too swift class,
whereas had he lived within his means
he might have become a highly success

The world doesn't give up its treas
ures easily. 1t isn't in the Ca"ds for all
of us to be millionaires, and mighty
few of the good fellows" get into that
class. It's better to earn your way
first and go hunting for good times
when you have reach ID the point where
you can spare both the time and the
money. Then possibly you'll have
more sense and have a different notion
about what a good time is.-Toledo

HERE'S THE .'MIRAGEsCOrE"-

Sherman Hobson, well-known
railroad man, of Pueblo, Colo, has
perfected an appliance which he
thinks will lessen the number of
railway collisions and save many
lives annually. The new appliance
is sort of looking glass to be hung
on each side of an engine to enable
the engineer and fireman to see the
roadbed for six miles, both in front
and in the rear. The chief value of
the invention is that it does not
make any difference if the road
is curved or straight. The instru-
ment works on the principle of a
mirage, and it has been named the
''miragescope.

MAxIMs SWIFT LEFT BEHIND

MAXIMs SWIFT LEFT BEHIND
G.F. Swift, the dead packer and
millionaire of Chicago, left on record
these maxims, alleging that by fol-
lowing them any man could make a
success;
Don't drink. No man, however
rich, has enough money to waste in
putting on style.
The richer man gets the more
careful he should be to keep his
head level.
The man that does not know his
business from the top clean down to
the bottom isn't any kind of II bust
ness man.
Business, religion and pleasure of
the right kind should be the only
things in life for any man.
A big head and q big bank account
were never found together to the
credit of anyone and never will be.
No young man is rich enough to
smoke 25-cent cigars.
Every time man loses his temper
he loses his head, and when he loses
his head he loses several chances.
Next to knowing your own busi-
ness, it is a mighty good thing to
know as much about your neighbors
as possible, especially if he's in the
same line.
The man with the biggest title and
salary should be the biggest man in
the firm.
The best q man ever did shouldn't
be his standard for the rest of his
life.

Explanation.

The article in last evenings Rec
ord concerning the transfer of prop
erty by Mr.. Flagler to the Model
Land Company is liable to create n
wrong impression. The Model Land
Company was incorporated in 1895
for the purpose of handling certain
lands owned by Mr.. Flagler on the
East Coast, particularly in Dade
county at that time. Recently Mr..
Flagler decided to convey his other
lands to that company in order to
save time and labor in accounts, con-
solidating the real estate under one
head. The transfer does not mean
anything else, and Mr.. Flagler is
still the owner of the property as he
is the principal stockholder. MIR. j.
