IS HETTY CREEN HAPpY7
By EDWIN A. NYE.
Copyright. 1903. by Edwin A. Nye.

Item.-A plain old woman, wear
ing a dowdy black dress. with slat-
ternIy appearing old hat tipped over
shrewd eye and cunning face.
That is pen picture of Hetty Green,
owner of many millions. as she sits
at her private desk in the big bank she
owns in New York city.
Since the days of Russell Sage this
woman has more ready cash to lend
than any other person in Gotham.
When taxes come in slowly and the
city authorities need money to meet
the heavy expenses they go to Hetty
Green for it-and pay good interest
for the short loan. you may be sure.
For many years Hetty Green lived
in cheap fat in Hoboken, just across
the river from Manhattan, and paid
therefor a rental of $40 per month.
New York gasped when she gave up
her fat and moved into the high priced
Plaza hotel. 1t did not last long.
though Hetty could have bought the
hotel and never missed the money.
She went back to Hoboken and tried
to rent the old fat, but it had been
leased. She is still looking for a fat
in that neighborhood
You see, rents are cheaper and liv-
ing is cheaper in Hoboken- And the
grasping old woman pinches the nick
els closer than you or I.
She lives only to pile up extra dol
lars.
So far as known, Hetty Green never
gave away dollar. 1t would be diff
flcult to make her believe in the beati-
tude, ut is more blessed to give than
to receive"
Therefore It is almost superfuous to
| inquire whether, with all her dollars
she is happy.
| Not necessarily. Dollars won by
commercial conquest may give to the
| conqueror a certain species Of salts
| faction, but dollars cannot bring hap
piness. Happiness and dollars belong
| to different worlds
Wealth itself is like salt water.
That is to say, the more you drink OF
either the more you want.
And so this money mad little wo
man, at time when she ought to bt
dancing her grandchildren on her knee
sits long hours in the bank. Beside:
the bank which she controls, she ha:
many millions invested in real estat,
and securities.
She denies herself the comforts de
manded by twelve dollar a weel
clerk and goes on squeezing out dol
lars.

fortunate enough to catch only those
under lawful size, hence the dining de-
partment was that much short. On
Friday evening as the shadows of night
began to draw over the mountain wilds
Harry Peters of Lumber City arrived
and joined as in the camp. On Satur-
day morning he and Mr.. Shatzer tried
their luck at fishing, but no go. Mr..
constantly so great is his fear of SER
pents. He also took with him to the
camp six pounds of birthstone and a
huge chunk of limberger cheese. The
birthstone was for the purpose of driv-
ing out gnats, spiders and mosquitoes
as they are unusually plentiful this
year, no doubt owing to the excess of
moisture At o'clock on Friday even
ing Shatzer made the stove red hot.
poked it full of wood, set it in an iron
kettle and into that be dumped the
birthstone, then closed all doors and
windows and got out. He said he was
going to raise hill and he did. He
also claimed that everything would run
that was in the shanty, and he was
right. A roll of good fresh butter run

er tried to introduce the other camp
ers to his limberger, but they were
averse to having anything to do with it,
