tact with all kinds OF people, to hear
hard luck tales" and view human
nature from different angles, often
affords welcome diversion in the daily
work of bank and trust company Of
ficers. They see both the lights and
shadows Of life and Of the unceasing
struggle for fortune

fidential services which trust COM
panies render in the administration
OF estates and care of property not
only in behalf of the dead but for
the living as well. the officers OF these
institution frequently meet with eX-
periences which show how some men

of property where men arrive at an

active business and enjoy some of the
fruits of their labors by travelling.

also somewhat Of a philosopher, re-
lates the following which points not
