EASY TO GET RICHES
SIMPLY MATTER OF SLEEPING
WHILE MONEY AccUMULATES.
Some Difficulties in the Way, But as a
Matter Of Theory the Thing Is
About as Simple as Can
Be Made.

We have heard much of "get rich
quick" schemes, but few of us have
found them to be of practical value.
They are fine ideas, but they do not
work. Now, a nice get rich slow"
Bchsme ought to succeed. A few days
ago a man gave certain city thou
sand dollars and told that city not to
use it for $50 years. At the end Of
that time 1t will be something more
than nineteen million dollars IL the
man who told the story figured it
right. There could not be an easier
way to be a millionaire than that. Just
hang around $50 years and the money
is yours.
OF course none of us could possibly
wait 80 long for so much money un-
less we were asleep, and that IS just
the point. Somebody ought to fix up
an easy sort of a near poison which
would put us to sleep and the thing
would be done. That should not be
difficult. Such thing must have been
done at one time, because we all know
that a whole kingdom was asleep for
ever SO long, and might still be asleep
if a foolish youth had not wakened
Beauty, and nobody else would stay
asleep after Beauty was awake. And
even In our own time, or at least much
closer to il, there was Rip Van Wrinkle,
who slept for 20 years. If he had not
been so shiftless, and had put a little
money in the bank before he went to
sleep he might have been comfortable
for the rest of his life.
And so, if everybody who had a
thousand dollars would put it in the
bank and take some sleep generator
he could wake up in $50 years or 200
years or a hundred years, according to
how rich he wanted to be, and would
be millionaire. Even if a person did
not have a thousand dollars to begin
with he could in the end have a few
millions. OF course If everybody was
going to be rich it might not be so
much fun, but we would get used to it
after a while. There would not be
any trouble about getting somebody
to stay awake and take care of the
banks, for a great many people have
entirely too much money already and
a great many more would not take
chances of losing what they had even
for $20,OOO,OOO.
There is just one serious drawback
to the scheme, and that may make it
impossible. What are we going to do
about the cost of living? Two hun
dred and fifty years is a long time
and the cost OF living would grow so
much in that time that $19,000,O00
would look like 10 cents instead of
like a thousand dollars. And no pow
er on earth can ever put the cost of
living to sleep.-New York Times.

Only Have to Have Money

New York, the modern Babylon, is
a Democratic Babylon. It's luxury and
its righteousness center in and are
to be found only in the huge hotels
and magnificent cafes that have, in
the space OF a score of years, trans
formed metropolitan life. In this
democratic babylon no question is
asked, whether a man is wealthy or
has power. Whosoever will may
come, be he possessed only of enough
money to pay for one nights enter
tainment-and the necessary tips for
the waiter. Students of society may
we'll take into account, in summing up
the conditions of modern American
life, this phase of New York, for it
must be remembered that the patrons
of these luxurious hostelries and res
taurants are not only New Workers,
but that they are everybody, from
everywhere, who can raise the price
for an annual visit to the metropolis.

Sir Henry received a great number

the writer complained that he was Sir

Regarding the English sparrow, let me
quote from some authorities. The "Ameri-

says in part, regarding the house sparrows,
which are our common sparrows: "They
differ from the country bird in being dir
tier, and, if possible, more daring. From
a high antiquity their great fecundity, their
attachment to their young, their extreme
pugnacity and the large tolls they levy on
the farmer and market gardener have beea
commented on by writers on ornithology.

Cooperation when practiced at the

success. When in large institution the
officers and employees cooperate in their
various capacities such efforts are bound to
aid the institution or corporation in its

Cooperation, however, is like the mech
