something irregular about this
cataclysm of infants. Although
purporting to have been born in
Chicago, no record of the appear
ance of bankruptcies was anywhere
preserved or attainable. Supplies
were suspended. Sympathetic
friends began to disappear. So
did the infants. How much was
paid for the use of them is not
stated-not SO much, it is to be
hoIed, as to overbalance the value
of the gratuities furnished in the
shape of potatoes, milk and in
fantile garments.
The clergyman used babies
where Anna used banana peels.
Two styles of original cleverness.
Two schemes for satisfying the
get-rich-quick passion, a passion
that the scheme adopted for its
gratitication-a passion that is de-
morhlizing to the individual, up
setting to society and that stands
stiiily in the way of what is for
the genuine interests of all classes
and conditions. - DR.. Parkhurst in
the Chicago American.
The Monte Vista journal., 1910-12-10
EASY MONEY

The get-rich craze, like all other
passions, develops ingenuity. An
almost unexampled instance of this
is afforded by the case of Mrs.
Annie Sturia, who has just been
before the New York courts and
has been living in a New York
Jail for the past six months. She
is the shrewdest of the shrewd, and
IA corporation of women made up
of the like of her would leave the
sugar trust and Standard Oil clear
out of sight.
1t is said that she travelled
around with banana skins in her
pocket with view of dropping
them at the apt moment, slipping
on them and securing damages
from the party or company on
whose premises the accident &C.
CURED. This is certainly clever.
Her estimated proceeds from ba-
mana skins and kindred devices
are said to be about 5000. Anna
is woman of genius The get
rich-quick" passion is surely the
mother of invention.
Another case of a similar kind,
but quite as far off from the beat
en- track of financial accumulation,
occurred in the lite hill town of
Goshen, Mass, about agar ago.
Unfortunately, in this instance the
gift for quick riches developed in
a clergyman and his wife.
The parish in Goshen is not a
lucrative one. There are not many
people there, and any man WORTH
u thousand dollars ranks as n mil
lionaire. Salary was small, and
quarterly payments were made
about six months apart. Accord
ingly, the wife had bankruptcies.
The logical connection between
poverty and bankruptcies is not i'm
mediately evident, but will develop
in the issue. So practical and
efficient a protest against race
suicide excited the interest of the
entire community. At that rate
Goshen would soon become IA city.
But not only was public interest
aroused, but public sympathy.
Four healthy responsibilities sud
denly saddled upon the care of u
couple of ecclesiastical paupers
touched the popular heart. Pres
emily supplies essential to the
physical sustenance and comfort
Of the swarming household flowed
in from all quarters. They lived
on the fat Of the land.

steal into the mir that there was
