WHAT WEALTHY CANNOT BUY.

Millions of people in this word .
yearn every day for the possession /
of wealth. Some of them would have I
Won believe they are willing to sell /
their very souls for the possession !
of money in large quantities; some, !
alas. do sell their souls. And, after
all in a great number of instances,
wealth is a mockery. What shall
it profit a man if he gain the whole
world and lose his own soul?' asked
the Savior.
The recent death of Charles :.
Yerkes, many times a millionaire, is
a case in point. Yerkes possessed
wealth beyond the widest dreams OF
avarice. Anything that money could
buy he could have. Cost long since
ceased to be a consideration with him.
Yet when this mans time came to die,
the summons found him on the bel
in a hotel, attended by hired nurse.
He could have bought and paid for
a thousand average American homes
without denying himself single lux
ury. He could not buy the smalle It
fraction of the wealth of happine IS
that is an every day feature of the
average American home. He could
not buy the love OF his wife: lie
could not buy the solace of tender
ministrations on his deathbed True
he could and he did buy attention,
but between attention that is given
for money and attention that is given
for love a great gulf is fixed.
Thousands upon thousands of men
who never dreamed of possessing a
hdndredth part of Yerkes wealth
thousands who never knew what 1t
ment>to be sure from month to month
that the next month would find abund
ance in the home, have passed from
earth under far more beautiful sur
roundings than those of Yerkes, dyins
on a bed in a garishly furnished
hotel room.
Instances like these are calculated
to make those of us who are withou
worldly wealth, the affection of those
around us, feel that wealth, howeve
desirable, is not the sine qua non O

Customer Demanded Ice.

Win the prevalence Of comparatively
cool weather during the past several
days the ice famine has not been Sc
yerely impressive. The local manufac-
turers have at all times il IS said,
been taxed 10 their capacity. and on
different occasions the demand has been
so great that the dealers have found
II necessary 10 decrease the amount de
sired by customers, This phase OF the
situation has been the result of con-
siderable dissension among local deal
ers. and many have gone 50 far ~ 10
engage in alteration with the manu-
facturers. An instance of this ch 4rac-
ter occurred Yesterday at the plant OF
the Purity Ice Company.
a dealer whose daily consumption is
something like 100 or 500 pounds drove up
70 the company's platform and demand
ed 400 pounds Of ice.
The manager OF the ice company
promptly informed him that il would bs
utterly impossible TO accommodate him.
We have not that amount TO sell 10

But I am willing 10 pay any price.
persisted the arrogant dealer. And be-
sides" continued the would-be purcha ser,
you have disposed Of several hundred
pounds of ice since my team has been
standing at your platform"
The manager, in a quiet, courteous
manner. put the situation thus: 4 have
only about 800 pounds of ice in the place,
and this amount must be reserved for
our regular customers.

sons who only purchase small amounts

families have children. and IL Is abso-
iutely necessary that they should have
ice. Also there are instances where the
sick must he provided fo-.
The dealer still insisted that he be
supplied with all the ice he desired
At this juncture the manager of the

the concern thereby placing many Gus
toners and private families In emba~Tas-

Ice for Regular Customers.
This condition exists all over the city.
Those dealers who have quantities Of ice
on hand absolutely refuse 10 part with
1t except to regular customers. This
move has been adopted by all dealers
and 1t has. therefore caused considerable
grumbling among that class OF dealers
who have never made a practice OF deal
ing with anv particular firm. but who
have persisted in jumping from one firm
to the other. wherever they could OBJ
tain Zee for the smallest price.
Within the next few days It Is eX-
pected that the city viii have emerged
entirely from the distressing situation.
That is. II Is generally thought that the
