People may find 1t hard to believe,
when surrounded with every luxury,
that the money In the bank may some
day suddenly melt away like a snow
drift in the spring sun. But 1t hap
pens so sometimes. And poverty is
most unkind TO those who have once
known o%pulence. Ten years ago. Jas.
b. Leddon was one of the wealthy men
Of Boston. He was a broker. rated at
at least a half million. But the panic
Of '93 cleaned him out and left him
penniless and broken In spirit. His
abilities seem to have been atrophied,
for he never got up in finance again.
The other day he was arrested in New
lorl; for permitting his children to
peddle on the streets. For two years
he had been living In a small. mlser-
able room, supported wholly by his
two daughters, aged eleven and thir-
teen, who sold perfumery. A thirteen
year-old boy is in the juvenile asylum.
Now. broken hearted and dlsgraced,
the once rich man lies in prison, sep
arated from his children and charged
with violating a city ordinance. 1t is
a pathetic but significant rebuke 10
the insolence of wealth. People are
apt to entertain the idea that If they
cal only get rich they are fixed for
this world, If not for the next. Usual
ly. a man who loves money well
enough TO accumulate a large fortune
loves 1t well enough to cling to 1t. But
not always. as this case, and many an
other testify. Money Is a nice thing
TO have. but II Is not a safe thing to
fasten ones life ambition upon or TO
pin all of ones hopes TO.

For preserving the peace in a partly
civilized country a railway. according
to a famous statesman. Is worth more
than an army corps. Although the
railways which are building from
Haifa TO Damascus In Palestine. and
from Damascus southwark toward
Mecca, are primarily for military pur-
poses, they VIII open up a country
which was prosperous and fertile two
thousand years ago. but has since be-
come one Of the waste places Of the
earth. They are already using Ameri-
can harvesting machines on the plain
of Jezreel. When the proposed rail-
ways are finished there will be a de-
mand for the accompanying modern
agricultural machines. Galilee and
the country beyond Jordan will again
blossom as the rose.

The Typewriter Will Win.

European officials of course are
murh slower in accepting modern I'M
proVements than are the American
people. So there is no occasion for
surprise at the tact that the Italian
government has refused to accept
typewriter documents for public re-
cords. This has drawn forth q state
ment by DR.. Bennett F. Davenport,
the expert in inks who Was EMPLOYED
by the Secretary of State Of Massa-
chusetts to assist in prescribing
formula for permanent ink, accom-.
panied by a copy OF the late report of
the Commissioner of Public Records
OF Parishes, and Towns and Counties,
in which there Is much about the
standard record ink approved by the
state and something to the point on
the matter OF the typewrters work.
The Boston Herald abiding to this
matter, remarks
HE saws that, under authority of
law OF 1899, 'typewriters have been
used upon the records in several
places, the different officers choosing
such ribbons as they preferred from
the nine approved Samples OF all
this work, SO far as it was known,
were obtained, and they were exposed
to direct sunlight for six months.
There has been no perceptible fading
of any of them, some from the larger
size of the type or harder impact with
the paper being originally and now
little darker than Others Let the
Italian government send to Massa-
chusetts for indelible printing ribbons,
and confidently take all the economi-
cal advantage of typewriters in it's
business" 1t isevident that the type
writer has come to stay, and it's
value in public service will be recog-
niz9d and admitted, no matter what
the opposition of too conservative
officialdom. The typewriter is a
democratic and labor-saving machine
and it's use is in harmony with the
tendency of the age.-1r0y Times.
