Are You a Fool7
bennington Banner. ]

Ask man the above question and
he will doubtless resent IL as an insult
but every little while circumstances show
that inquiry is warranted
George T. Howard. late railroad commits
sioner of the state OF Vermont, would or
dinarily have been classed as a success
full man. He made money until he was
independent even wealthy as wealth is
reckoned In Vermont. He had a family
which would be credit TO any man. He
was trusted by his neighbors and fellow
citizens and was given political prefer
ment until he reached a high state Office.
All of which makes his fall the more mis-
cradle
Actuated by petty greed, or, we know
not what, he undertook to swindle the
state out Of a few paltry dollars that he
did not need. For time he appeared to
succeed, only to be caught in the end.
and now see the result. Still a young
man, even If he escapes the prison cell,
condemned to go through life with the
finger of scorn and the voice of reproach
ever raised against him.
Wherever he goes, the minute his back
is turned, one man nudges another and
whispers. There goes George Howard"
His children, even, will be pointed out to
strangers and the whole miserable story
rehearsed with additions and distortions
that will pursue them to the grave. The
punishment is terrible one and greater
than the crime deserves, for only one has
sinned while those whom he holds most
dear share almost equally with him in
the punishment
Similar cases transpire every day.
Not all al, prominent like Mr.. Howard
and are therefore not advertised to so
wide circle but in nine cases out of
every ten the dishonest and tricky man
is found out Sooner or later the public
takes his measure for just what he Is
worth He is watched and despised
wherever he goes. His word is not taken
by anybody and the more he says the less
he is believed.
With such warnings ever before us
1t is strange that they are not more heed
ed. Smartness may conceal the rotten
ness within for a time, but in the end the
wormy interior will be revealed. 1t is as
sure as that daylight will follow darkness
