Having skillfully wrought her up TO

robbed her of husband, o and world

by the impulse to protect her cousin.
They ran down together. and at the

The Raiffeisen Banking system.

Myron T. Herrick in Atlantic Magazine.
The Raiffeisen banking system is
based on the principle Of combining
borrowers, to the end that by associa-
ton they may secure credit facilities
which. as individuals, it would be i'm
possible for them to obtain. The fund
amental provisions of the Raiffeisen
banks, as contemplated by Herr Raiff-
eisen, were those of gratuitous man
agement, unlimited liability Of men,
bers, and a strictly local field Of opera
ton. For the most part the Raifeisen
adhere to those provisions. The
membership of the banks is made up
almost exclusively Of farmers In 1909
the number Of members for each bank
averaged 80. In the beginning the
Raiffeisen banks had no capital stock,
but in 1876 a law was passed which
made 1t necessary for them to issue
shares Of stock. The value of the
shares was fixed at what was little
the average paid up capital per mem
Der was only 10 marks. The dividends
that the Raiffeisen banks can paw are
strictly limited-in no event can they
exceed the rate of interest charged on
loans. In 1903 these banks made a net
profit In excess of 1000, 900 marks. but
of this only 10 per cent was paid out
in diyidends-the balance being passed
to the credit Of the reserve fund, Be
of the nature Of its business the
sphere Of operation of each bank is
very limited. 1t is necessary for the
members to know each other, and to
know for what purpose each loan is
made, and to see that the money is so
used. The Ratffeisen banks have done
much to encourage thrift, because they
have supplied a new incentive for saw
Inc. Inasmuch as the successful man
agement Of these banks requires a keen
sense Of responsibility on the part of
the individual members, their moral eff
feet is very considerable.

Wealth Without Poetry

'For twenty years. says Hamilton
w Mabie In The Outlook, "the, country
has been too busy to take account of
its poetry; but now that it is learning
that wealth without poetry is weari-
ness, and that the divorce Of the senses
from the Imagination is a spiritual
scandal. and a breeder of material
scandals as well, It may turn again to
nor fattered 1t, but have refused to be
blinded by it's prosperity or confused
by It's resounding activities. The new
poetry is refreshing reading, not be-
cause It is great but because it keeps
the old loyalty to the things OF the
spirit"
