A fresh field for young men of
ability is being opened up. The Ger
titled public accountants of this cOun-
try and of Great Britain and Canada
met in convention a few days ago at
Atlantic City. There We're London
worthless, with huge jeweled seals hung
round their necks, as tho they were
going to a lord mayors banquet-typi-
cal City men, these, as Thackeray
might have drawn them, rather proud
of their lark of vacations, proud that
their clerks feared the business would
go to the bow-wows when the "gover
nor" was away. convinced that the
good old English employee is degener-
ating under the present-day love of
ease and amusements. There were men
from Edinburgh and Dundee---the
Scots are great accountants, and it
was in Scotland some fifty years ago
that accounting as a profession was
first established. And there were mel
from Montreal and Toronto and Nova
Scotia and all over the United States.
Accounting as a profession. like doc
toring or engineering, began in this
country in 1895, when New York state
passed law compelling all public ac-
-countants to pass a regents examina-
ton and receive proper certification
before they could practise as &c. p.
AS" The growth of the profession has
followed the growth of corporations
and holding companies. 1t is the bust
ness of these painstaking and meticu-
lous gentlemen to unravel and set in
order The complexities which such
businesses produce. They will take a
business which your grandfather set
on it's feet and which you and his
other aecadent descendants are mis-
managing, find out just where the dry
rot lies, and put the house in order 1t
is uncomfortable for you, but good for
the business. They Will sift and sys-
telnatize anything, from 4 household
account to the budget of a government.
Theirs is a profession worth the con-
sideraiion Of young men with a turn
for mathematics.

Dramatist Expires at Age Of 0-Piays
known World Over.
Paris, Nov 9.-Victorien Sardou died
Sunday from pulmonary congestion. He
had been i'll for long time. He was
the dean of French dramatiSts and q
member Of the French academy. The
man whose first play was Kissed and
who then wanted to go to America to
seek his fortune. died rich and hon.
ored. with the proud title of Frances
greatest and most prolific contem-
porary dramatfst.
Sardou was man possessed OF sing
ular charm and was greatly beloved,
and there is universal regret that he
left no memoirs. He was born In Paris
Sept. z. 1881. the son of Leandre Sar-
dou, an eiucationalist and the compiler
of several publications. AT first he
studied medicine. but was obliged in
consequence Of the embarrassments of
his family, to give private lessons in
literature, writing articles for several
reviews and for the minor journals.
His first comedy, LA Taverne des
Etudiants," was produced in 1854 In
the Odeon, then the second state the
ater, but 1t proved a complete failure.
He later wrote the comedy, Les Pattes
de Mouche,' which was produced with
great success in 1860, and subsequent
ly adapted for the English stage under
the title Of "a Scrap Of Paper"
At the age Of rs Sardou witnessed
the production Of his latest drama
"L'Affaire des Poisons," at the Porte
st. Martin theater. This play, which
has to do with the Infamous poisoning
which existed under the
reign of Louis XIV. and which was
presented for the first time on Dec. Z,
last. is still running to crowded
houses.
