Is worth while calling attention in
these days when SO many fathers on
Doth sides Of the Atlantic are relin-
gushing in their old age their bust
ness interests. and even the possession
OF their fortune. in order to escape
the terribly onerous taxation with
which wealth is nowadays taxed on Its
inheritance
Thus, in Scotland. where ancient
tenures and old-time customs in con-

small residence known as the dover
house. with an income comparable in
size to the jointure Of a feminine dow
ager. and charge on the revenues of
the family property
Both the late Mr.. Gladstone and also
Lord Roseb.ry made a study of this
peculiar custom, and it Is now being
even still more widely adopted in
Scotland for the purpose of avoiding
the death duties. While the fairness
OF the practice towards the national
excheQuer may be questioned, there is
no doubt that it Is entirely equitable
as far as tae family relations are con-
cerned. For .vhen man survives to
the age OF ninety and beyond, 1t is
manifesuy unfair that his eldest son
should have to wait until nearly
seventy before obtaining possession OF
the family pre- perty.
Other male dowaSers are those Brit
ish commoners who have married
peeresses in their own right, possessed
or enta1lcd property. which, along
with the peerage, goes on the lady's
death to her eldest son. the lntters

There have even been kings dow
