STRANGE TURN OF FORTUNE.
Once Rich Philanthropist Receives
Charity in Home She Founded.

American Magazine: In Chicago the
name Of Marks Nathan is standardized
as typifying Jewish charities. There
are several Marks Nathan institutions,
several Marks Nathan funds, a half
dozen Marks Nathan scholarships.
Mrs. Nathan and her late husband
gave fully 100000 to charities. After
her husbands death Mrs. Nathan gave
away more until she had only 10000
left upon which to live. This was lost
in a bank failure, and now she is pen.
and INDECENT Jews, of which she herself
is a director.
She began by making wire frames for
hats with her own hands, for ind.-
viduals and expanded to a shop with
several helpers for the limited market
Of those days. Then a great piece Of
fortune came along-hoopskirts swept
into fashion and she swept along TO n
handsome profit by turning her facili-
ties to the manufacture of wire hoops.
With some of her earnings she
bought piece of land. The $4,000 she
invested became $4,000 when she sold
it as part Of the site of the Santa Fe
terminal. With $4,000 of that she
bought prairie land on what was then
the city limits, and a few years later
sold II for S150,000 as the spot for the
Illinois Central depot Thereafter she
made several other keen buys and was
rated, thirty years ago, as one Of the
wealthy women of the region"

Give me TO die when life is high:
The sudden thrust. the quick release
Full in the front, in harness, not
A slow decay in timorous peace.

Nor lose one flash Of perfect death
For sluggard years OF coward life

AZ His command win gladly rest
For who would tarry when lie calls.

And render 10 ungrudging God
