New York City TO become the Firan-
ciai and Commercial Center.
1t takes ages to change the CONNER
cial and financial center of the world
When one is once established 1t shifts
tardily and only long after 1t has
ceased TO be the most convenient place
for the greatest number OF people
There have been but a comparatively
few such centers I'm the history OF
commerce. For centuries their loca-
ton was on the Mediterranean Sea or
its tributaries. Carthage, Rome. Con
stantinople, Vienna, followed one an
other at long intervals. With the
growth of the Anglo-Saxon and Ger
manic races and the development OF
ocean traffic the location shifted TO
northern Europe. Then came Bruges,
Antwerp, Amsterdam and finally Lon
don, where 1t still remains
But the signs of the times now
point to another change The United
States holds one-fourth OF the worlds
stock of gold and controls over one
third OF the worlds banking power. In
round figures the worlds supply OF
gold is $4,000, 100000. OF this the
United States holds S1,320, 400.O 900. The
worlds banking power is approx
mately $33,60s. 100000. or this $751;
s26,0O00O0 belongs to the United

United States has gained 16S.47 per

John ID. Rockefeller, Jr.. Is 3S years
Of age. A man should be IN his prime
at that age. II is reported, however,
that Mr.. Rockefeller has broken down
and is going TO retire from business.

sia. He is entitled to the sympathy
OF all his fellows, rich and poor. Any
body who has acute nervous dyspep-
sia is entitled 10 II. II there is any

nightmare and the world into an ach-
ing void, that will make the possessor

Indigestion. The people of the United
States ought to try to forget the fact
that Mr.. Rockefeller Jr. has been a
tentacle OF the octopus. He has trou-
bles enough without having that
charged TO him. Mr.. Rockefeller has
not been what the prayer book calls a
sinful liver" He has not drunk to
excess. lie has not. like some rich
young fellows, stayed out nights and
eaten late suppers. His life has been
as decent and blameless as that OF the
young men I'm the Sunday school story
books. His collapse not being caused
by bad habits II is attributed to over
work. Probably II Is due more TO wor-
ry than to work. The fact seems TO
be that Mr.. Rockefeller Jr. lacked the
capacity to handle the large affairs
intrusted by his father to his manage
ment, and. being conscientious, be
may have worried about II. IL IL said
he has also worried over the relentless
criticism to which the methods OF the
Standard OIL Company and Of the
System" have recently been subject
ed. This doubtless is the secret of his
breakdown. Ten business men are
made sick by worry to one who Is
mnGc sick by work. Few people are
hurt by the strain Of purely intellect
ual labor. II is when hope. fear, re-
sentiment. shame are felt-when the
emotions and passions are deeply en-
gaged-that the nervous system goes
to wrack. Mr.. Rockefeller's condition
Is not peculiar. There are a great
many other cases of nervous indiges-
ton in this country, not the least IA
nous being that Of his own father. 1t
Is young Mr.. Rockefelers fortune to
be able to quit work and devote him

Most nervous dyspeptics can't do that

Beggars who feign diseases are no
new thing in the streets OF London.
They existed in Charles lis time. only
then the beggar was called ''ruffier,"
"huff'' or 'shabbaron." II he was
deaf and dumb he was called a dun
merer." The woman who sang hymns
and led borrowed children by the hand
was called a "clapperdozen." Vagran-
cy is no new thing, though 1t practic-
ally did not exist In medieval times.
1t was when the cities ceased to be
confined within their own walls and
long before the days of policemen that
the people got beyond the control Of
the aldermen and their officers and va
grancy became regular profession.
The first English law against beggars
was made by Henry VIII, who gave
licenses to beg TO the old and impotent
and ordered that all other beggars
should be whipped and sent back to
their parishes

them cynically.
What do you think Of 'em, WashT

Il don't believe in signs" Hancock
went on. always makes me think of
Sam HOLSTER. When he and Mrs.
HOLSTER were married somebody gave
'em a motto, God Bless Our Home
Sam hung 1t over the melodion.
After they had been married
spell he bought another motto, 'Wilful
Waste Makes Woful Want and took
IL home.
What's that for?" asked Mrs. Hol-
lister.
~ thought 1t would be good
thing to hang up In the Kitchen, said
Sam. Mrs. HOLSTER didn't say any
thing. but the next time Sam went to
town he brought home "A Penny Saved
is Penny Earned and tackled that
up.
What did you pay for that motor
asked Mrs. HOLSTER.
1.-TWO bits said Sam.
Didn't they have one that says,
"A Fool and His Money are Soon
PartedT she asked.
No. said Sam. 'WhyT
oh, nothing she said.
"a spell later Mrs. HOLSTER bought
motto, The Lord Loveth a Cheerful
Giver,' and then Sam got one. Wives,
Obey Your Husbands They had
more or less trouble after that and it
might have ended in one of 'em get
ting bill. but Sam took home new
motto, What Is Home Without a

Next day Mrs. HOLSTER hitched up
her team and went after her own
mother, and brought the old lady
back to stay month. She was a
right smart old lady, and she set about
putting things the way she thought
they ought to be, and she said sne

Off the walls and went into the attic;
and as near as ever heard, Sam an

The storekeeper regarded Washing

said, ''just raise the lid of that cheese
