Gives 20 Cents a Tick.
Besides such an undertaking as Mrs.
Sage's latest, her previous benefac-
tions stand small, though beyond the
belief OF the average rich man.
Last year alone she gave away $13.

Since the first OF the year this
amount has been increased by millions
and her gifts To churches and charity
amount TO s25.C0O a day.
Every time the old clock in Mrs.
Sages Long Island mansion ticks 1t
costs her 2S.9 cents. Every time the
chimes ring out an hour she is more
than 81 900 less rich than before.
Each minute means 1886 given TO
alleviate some suffering, 10 make some
body happier.
BY the time the day is passed $685.
