The generally credited belief that none
but the inexperienced man from the
wayback districts becomes the victim of
the bunco man and the slick promoter of
unsafe investments is somewhat set
awry by the publishing of the will of
the late Darius o. Mills of New York

millionaire and whose experience in bus
mess was very wide. The will reveals
that there was included in the estate a
total of 456,504 shares of absolutely
worthless stocks in 2l different COM
psnies. A large part of these worthless
stocks were in mining ventures, which
proves that if a man Of Mr.. Mills ex-
