WISE DISPOSITION OF RICHES
EngIIshman Of Wealth Left Fortuns
to Help Young Business Men
Who Needed IL.

When the will of certain Samuel
Wilson of London was probated re-
Gently in the English courts, it was
found that the bulk of his fortune had
been strangely disposed of, the Indian
apolis News remarks. A fund had
been left in trust from which loans
of sums ranging from $500 to $1,000
are to be made to young men en-.
gagged in business. The restrictions
surrounding the loans proved that
Samuel Wilson was not only a man
OF generous impulses, but a philan.
thropist Of no mean order. No loan Is
TO be made to any man who has not
carried on his business for a year,
and none to any applicant who has
been in business more than three
years.
This may appear whimsical, but q
little closer inspection will relieve It
OF this suspicion. The testator. as
q matter of fact, has done something
for young business men that young
business men sadly need. 1t is an
axiom of the business world that the
third year OF any new venture is the
crucial year. This, evidently. was
In Mr.. Wilson's mind, and, like as not,
he knew from personal experience how
difficult it Is for young business man,
with no more substantial assets than
good prospects and abundant Opt.

most required. To the limit of his
resources, he has come to their re-
lief. A years time. he probably fig
ured, would weed out the incompe-
tent and the faint-hearted, and leave
the worthy, while the latter, enduring
for three years, could probably show
assets thereafter that would make Dor.
rowing less difficult.
His fund will help those who are
capable of helping themselves. Banks
are not given to that sort of thing, and
young man, embarking in business,
often finds himself helpless because
he lacks capital or collateral. With
out the latter he cannot borrow, and,
promising as the future may be, he
is frequently forced to abandon the en-
terpr1se for the want OF few num-
dred dollars. This, said a banker re-
Gently, is one of the tragedies of the
business world.
Banking laws are necessarily strict.
Security for loans must be tangible,
and faith and optimism, however I'M
portant they may be, have no bank
able value With honesty and integ-
rity they play their part, but the bank
err none the less, must have his Sc
curity. so the Wilson will establishes
a practical philanthropy. Some wealthy
American who is at bss-as now
and then one of them says he is
to make wise disposition of his riches,
might, with good reason, follow the
example of Samuel Wilson of London.

The third battle line extended from
Warneton straight south to La Bassee.
Warneton is a frontier town in Bel

Apparently this battle marks the at

vigorous German attack was repulsed,
and press the offensive movement
closer to Lille, headquarters for the
whole right wing of the German army.
The battle from Ypres to Menin is be-

tory at Vienna upon the resistance
which the human skin affords to the
electric current He operates by pass
ing the current through the body from

His researches bear upon the rela-

citement of any kind lowers the pro-
tecting power of the skin to quite q
marked extent.
