he Handled $4O,OOO,OOO for j. w. Gates
"Worst Loser | Ever Saw" Hotel
Cashier Says of Steel Magnate.
HE Never Forgave Man Who
Gave Him a Bad Tip"

For some reason the deal fell through,
and the papers printed stories that
Mr.. Gates had lost so much money
playing poker on the train that when
he got to New York he was almost
out of funds. And one of the men
who made the trip told me the poker
game on the train was very small
affair"
Son Was a Broker,
But Aped His Father.
During the period of Miss Vieg's
employment in Gates Chicago offices,
Charlie Gates, the great gamblers
son, whose recent death after an al
most unparalleled life of fast living
and dissipation has provided theme
for more sermons than any occur
renee OF recent years, conducted
brokerage office.
None of Mr.. Gates employees in
the Fuel Company's offices ever
thought much of Charles ability
says Miss Veg. He was never known
John w. Gates Son" He was
very proud of his father and tried to
do everything the elder man did,
which was probably why Charlie
failed to develop an individuality of
ms own. Charles specu!ations In
Chicago were very unsuccessful.
Everybody thought of Charlie aGtes
then as being nothing but a boy, al
though he was about thirty years old.
"Mr. Gates used to treat Charlie
more like a brother than like a son,
and they were constant companions.
In the office we would hear Mir. Gates
talking to his son, and his talk was
just like one brother would use to
another
"One OF the most reno rkable things
! ever noticed about Mr.. Gates was
his memory. There was one incident
in the Office work that illustrates this
very well A letter covering a sheet
of closely written paper had been
written by Mr.. Gates, and presuma-
bly, mailed to a customer. A month
passed, and nothing was heard from
the person to whom the letter was
addressed. and fearing that the let
ter had not been delivered, and the
duplicate having been lost, Mr.. Gates
wrote another, saying that he would
write it as nearly like the other as
possible.
He dictated the letter, and it was
mailed. Some time later the missing
letter was found in the Office, and,
with the exception of such words as
"a and the, was identical with the
letter written by Mr. Gates a month
later than the original"

A Mixture of Sage and Sulphur
Prevents Dandruff and
Falling Hair,

When you darken your hair with
Sage Tea and Sulphur no one can tell,
because it's done so naturally; so
evenly. 1t is also splendid to remove
dandruff, cure itching scalp and stop
falling hair.
Preparing this mixture, though, at
home is a mussy and troublesome
task. For about so cents a bottle you
can buy at any drug store the ready
to-use tonic called, "Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Hair Remedy" Some
druggists put this mixture up them
selves but make 1t too sticky, so in
