Most People Are Honest.

According to The San Fran
cisco Argonaut, during the first
four or five days after the San
Francisco fire, when many peo.
pie could get no money from
the banks, a great number went
to the railroad officials for tick.
cts to points north, east, south
and west, and both in and out
of the state. They insisted up.
on paying eventually, but had
nothing to give at that time but
their written promises 10 pay
as soon as they could reach
their destination The railroad
officials took these promises TO
pay to an amount aggregating
$50, 900 from nearly LOCO per-
sons.
1t is remarkable that within
five months of the great hola
caust no less than $53, 900, or
nine-tenths of the full amount,
has been paid by remlttances
from the refugees to whom
credit had been extended.

Wealth Rapidly Passing Into the
Hands of Few Men.

Arraigning corporations and trusts
as the greatest menace of the present
time to American Institutions, Repre-
sentative SulZer discussed the prob
lem of who shall rule America" at
the Baptist Church of the Epiphany in
New York City. In part he said:
THE total population of the United
States is about SO,0OO0O0. The total
aggregate wealth is about $4,000 ,000,-
900, and 1t appears that out Of that pop
ulation less than $4,000 persons own
more than one-half the aggregate
wealth of the land. And this has all
been brought about in the last twenty
five years by combination and conspir-
acies called trpsts, fostered by special
legislation and nurtured by political
favoritism. If these conditions obtain
in the next century, predict that less
than 5000 persons will control more
than three-quarters of the wealth Of
this country.
Twenty years ago John ID. Rookie
feller was worth only a few hundred
thousands of dollars To-day his wealth
cannot be estimated under a billion.
| have searched the congressional IL
hrary for statistics bearing upon the
wealth OF the great Croesus whose
name has been handed down through
the ages, and find that he possessed a
paltry $10.000.060. Why, he could not

Medicinal Value Of psrfum...

Most of the perfumes were thought
by the ancients to have a medicinal
