Lending to the Poor.
HOW Mr.. GOSSARD HAS FUN

Goes Out for the Chap Who Needs
Just Little Help to Give Him a
Start. A CHEEKY Smile and a Lit
tie Money for Every Fellow Who
Is Cup Against It."
Once in a while there is a rich
man who understands how mighty
uncomfortable it is to be broke, -
who realizes that many a man with
out the price of a meal has the ability
to win success if given a little timely
aid, and who has the heart and the
judgment to give literally and wisely
OF his surplus to help the down and
cut" fellows once more to their feet
Such a man J. w. Gossard a
wealthy Chicago manufacturer, seems
to be. He is a hard worker himself
aad a keen business man, but for
many years he has positively refused
TO do any work or transact any bust
ness on Thursday. That day he calls
his play day, but his play consists
very largely in going about seeing
the fellows whom he may help by
means Of a cherry smile and a little
money.
Mr.. GOssard does not give money
away. Not by a great deal He
doesn't believe in that When he
goes out to help his fellow man, or
EHhnn hiC folInuJ 70 /,
for help. he always has one pocket
full of money and the other full of
prOmissOry notes. He makes his
beneVolences matter of business.
Hello, old chap" Mr.. Gossard
will say to a fellow whom he meets
in the park or on the street and hap
pens to look as though he had about
reached the end of his rope. You
don't look very cheerful What's the
trouble? Out of work and dis

Sour shoulders and get a hustle ONT"
His Visit to New York.
Mr.. Gossard sometimes finds that
business calls him to New York.
His Thursdays are his play days
there just the same az in Chicago.
He was there last week. A New
