THE SONS OF THE WEALTHY.

Philip D. Armour third, began last week his work in the hog pens of the Chicago stock yards. There his famiIy's fortune got it's start. He receives no favors, and works like any Swede or Hungarian. He is learn ing the business from the ground up.
 Not every son of wealth thus goes through the mill After college he may get several years of leisurelys and luxurious travel. Then he will be put to work at some nominal office position in the business. His heart is not in big ledgers or monthly re- ports, but on the golf links or steam yacht. Why should he work, with no need of. earning money? And if he feels this way. what becomes of moral fiber?
 The son of wealth who is willing to take hold in the hog pen must have god stuff In him. The must sion and spending of money can not wholly satisfy him. Probably he wants the thrill of doing something himself, rather than merely taking what others hand out to him.
 The young Croesus in the mill has one advantage that is denied the poor boy. He gets the chance to learn every department. The poor boy must, do some one task over and over again. Only by luck can he get any broad conception Uf the industry. This blocks most mems path to success.
 Much labor friction could disap- pear if every son of wealth were put to work beside the men. His father has felt the weariness of hard labor. He has seen at close range what life's struggle really means. To the boy who simply handles checks and re- ports and credits, the mechanic is a remote and alien creature. He is @ mere business fact, raw material to be bought andy sold like iron and leather He can't get his point of view. i Phil Armour and those like him will notmerely get d better prep aration for business success. They will also see and hear things, concern ing the working world that they ought to know about.

"HE CONFETTI NOT.'

''The fault was grave! might have

 What far too soon, alas! learned The heart can bind itself alone
 And faith may oft be unreturned' Self swayed our feelings ebb and
 swell,
 Thou Iov'st no more. Farewell!
 Farewel1!''
 Are there not numbers of girls who attract attention and who from that time believe that hey have magnet ized interested men with whom they have come in contact? There are others who fail to rest assured that they have power sufficient to catch a beau and keep him for a length or time.
 They make a mistake in giving way to ~discoura agement; in wondering in the depths of their hearts how 1t is that they never seem to attract 8 marrying man. F
 The truth is plain. They make pain full efforts to amuse the suitor who is pleased to call on them after first ac- quaintance and keep up the strain of amusing the guest until they become perceptibly nervous. It is a relief to the pleasant hostess when the young man starts to go, hat in hand. Even if they accompany him to the door, the compliments in their leave taking continue, such as: "I do hope, Mir. -, you will not forget to come and see us again. 'Let 1t be soon, p1easei'' Don't forget to let me know how you like the book I loaned you" Mark the pages which interest you," etc.
 These little reminders and dozens of similar evidences of her regard are bright saIlies which he is supposed to dwell upon with an approach of heart interest.
 From that night until the next one that he comes, he will have something to think over, she fully believes. This may pass muster for 9 number of eve- n1ngs during which she waxes more eloquent, becoming jollier and not stopping to think what his reflections are when she tells hir- he is the only one she has ever cared for. e/ Instead of his being the wooer, she has taken the prerogativ0. She has ] been such good company, he certainly mustMbe under Cupid's pell. she as- suresI Iherself. All the time of his vis- it's he has not come out frankly and I declared marriage intent. Time is go- ing with both. Summer outings has grown into the lap of winter. They now sit by the f1reside. tired of. at | tempting to attract one another. One of these evenings she never can 1 forget. It is the last one. She watch es by the window, dressed in her pret- tiest robe. 'tHe cometh not,' were the words she sighed when alone
 The girl who strives exasperatfngly to do the wooing, never knows until he ceases his visits what a treasure he would have found in her if he had been obliged to exert himself to make the present pleasurable for her. Some times it is. the best of happenings when he stops coming if she only real ized the fact. She is smarter when the next comes along; he proves a better man and wooer.

WATCHING MYSELF GO BY love to study my fellow men, To sit and watch them hurry about, To guess and wonder their motives

 last fall. I sit and wonder whyI am Instead of being my neighbor, Smith And whether I am human and, if so, And whether this living is a joke or
 a myth; And whence name all the machinery That whizzes and zipps inside of me. I wonder why I was put here Instead of on Venus or Mars, There was plenty of folks without me, N that's clear;
 So why for one more did they drop

 mind That hurries along till I can't keep

 Why will it not stop at my mild re-
 quest Just stop for minute and give me

HUSBAND LOOKS
 AFTER ANOTHER
Dear Miss Libbey:-

D0ac MISS A1OD0ys-
 You give good advice. May I ask a question? am married; mother of several children. Husband went with girl for yeafB. Tn IF years he has not met her. Now from his work he meets one. Takes her in his arms, kisses her. Tells me, any one else would. Says I have no right to be- come angry. He asks me to meet her. Wants to know if she can call my home hers, if she's out of work. can't treat hfkn the same. He boldly boasts you will agree with him. Please answer.
 L. M
 A man who treats his wife in such Ia wicked manner deserves to be iso- lated, wifeless and homeless. You are a sensible woman, thus not to take this to heart, nor be jealous. Con- tinue to act your natural self; return good for evil. Your home cannot be hers. Time will bring your happi- ness.

SAFE INVESTMENTS

rTHE report that Emperor William
and others of the HohenZollern
i family recently have invested
extensively in New York mu-
nicipal Fours is a compliment to the
stability of American bonds. Looking
over the entire world, these securities
have seemed most desirable to a king
and his relatives who are determined
to take no chances on the future of
their income at the close of a war the
outcome of which nobody now can
foresee.
The judgment of the agents of this
royal family is, however, nothing new.
Bankers of reputation and ability have
been known to put more money into
municipal bonds than into any other
form of permanent investment, unless
it be the securities of the nation itself
It is true they bear less interest than
many others, but they in the long run
are safer even than first-class mort
cages and they are as good as gold on
the market or in the banks.
Emperor William and his family
may feel perfectly safe whate'er betide
if it is true, as has been stated, that
they have slowed away in safety de-
post vaults in this country some mil
lions of dollars worth of New York
city improvement bonds.
How different European securities
look here at the present time. If the
figures of banking authorities may be
accepted as accurate, the United States
now has a credit abroad of nearly
100000; but there are very few
investors in this country who. are
showing any disposition to put a part
of that surplus into bonds of the
warning nations. Mr.. Morgan has gone
abroad with some such thought in his
mind, it is said, but it is by no means
certain that he will invest heavily in
any of the securities now being issued
by Germany or the allies If the war
should come to an end within the COM
ing six months, some of these Euro
pean bonds may look like good invest
ments, but II hostilities continue over
n period of years there is no estimating
the amount of depreciation that may
result.
At all events, the fact that shrewd
European investors prefer American
securities to their own war loans ought
TO give American capitalists food fol
thought.

AMERICAN SUBMARINES

"HE country is mourning its first
submarine disaster and there is
= marked absence of criticism
of the kind that usually follows
accidents in the navy. This. doubt
less, is because the United States sub
marine service has been in the past
exceptionally efficient or exceptionally
fortunate.
This country was the first to make
use Of the underwater lighting ma
chine. y very great deal of the ex-
perimentins necessary 20 bring the
submarine to its present high state of
efficiency has been performed by
American scientists and American
naval officers Nevertheless, up to the
time the Inflated F-4 went to its
doom off the harbor of Honolulu. not
a man had met with serious accident
aboard a United States submarine.
The loss of life incident to the devel-
opment of the aeroplane affords an
interesting comparison.
But other navies have not been so
fortunate. Sixteen foreign undcrseas
vessels have been lost and more than
200 lives sacrificed. Either the Amer

The remark attributed to Lord
Kitchener, Il do not know when the
war is going to end, but [ know when
1t is going to begin" gains authority
from the characterization by Harold
Begbie in his recent biography. pub
lished by Houghton Mifflin Company.
The great leader Mr.. Begbie says, lis
an entirely different person from the
legendary Kitchener and at the pres
ent day, he is no longer the real
Kitchener who laid a railway across
the dessert and broke the savage pow
er of the Dervishes. But he is still an
obstinate, slow thinking, and tenacious
organizer, still a man who knows the
right person for a particular under
taking, still q man who Yields to no
social pressure in the sphere of pat
ronage, and still a man who is an abso-
lutte terror to the CRATER and the fool.
He has set himself to raise immense
|armieS in England, and he is determin-
ed that nothing shall make him dis
patch these new troops to the front un-
til they have acquired something of
the discipline and smartness which
are such distinguishing marks of the
regular British Army. \ weaker man,
or let us say, man less obstinate,
might have been tempted to send these
green armies to France and to Bel
GUM in the first nerve-trying months
of the war. Kitchener was like rock
in this matter q. 1t remains
to be seen whether these new armies
will not surprise Lord Kitchener's crit
les when they take the field. Slow and
laborious as the War Secretary's ad-
ministration may be, it is nevertheless
inspired by his dogged and unswerving
passion for absolute efficiency. Sooner
or later the uniforms and boots will
appear, the rifles and bayonets be
handed out, and the troops, which at
the time of writing are drilling in
mufti with obsolete rifles, will make
their appearance as q marching army.
