$s,ooo,o 900 a Year.

The late revelation of individual
income tax returns for 1918 disclosesl
one Of S5,O00,000 This magnificently
rotund sum will be sure to stimulate
the popular Imagination. There will
be much speculation as to who the
recipient may have been, for, Of.
course, the law prevents the publica-
tion of his name. But whoever he
was the sentiments regarding him
will take a wide range.
Envy will take on grudging acer-
bity probably in the minds of the very
few. The most general feeling, it Is
likely. will be the one expressed in
the old villon postulation. Isl j'6tats
roir-"If only had that amount Of
money, what ! would dot" At the
other extreme from the envlous will
be those who, either from experience
or from clear-eyed thought, realize the
burden and the strain of vast trustee

sympathy.

who sits the matter down to first
principles that the possession of such
wealth as a five million dollar annual
return expresses is for the most part

to use or even to expend any such
amount on oneself or on ones i'm

DICKENS has in one Of his books a

believe. In "Little Dorrit"-who gets
nothing out of all his money and all
worth of dinner daily. In fact, as

this tearing down of old props an honest endeavor
to build a finer, more enduring structure. In one
year Pictorial Review has published nine articles
analyzing the trend in thought ON this question.

FAIRFIELD CENTER MAN
MISSING THREE DAYS

Zedor Toulouse of Fairfield Center,
WHIP disappeared last Monday. has not
as yet been heard from. After investi-
cation, his family reported Thursday
evening to Deputy Marshal George
Simpson that they have found no
trace OF the missing man. Mr.. Tou-
louise was very sick about two months
ago with influenza and pneumonia. and
it is thought that lie still may be
somewhat delirious. He is hard
working man, not inclined to mean-
choly and. as Ear as is known. he had
no family troubles.
Mrs. Toulouse said that her hus-
band told her last Monday morning
that he was going to town to have his
horse shod. She told him tina: he had
better change lis suit. so as to present
q better appearance. He put the horse
back in the stable and went into the
mouse, presumably to change his
clothes. He has not been seen nor
heard of since. Mr.. Toulouse is well
known in this city. and the region in
which he lives is thickly settled 1t
is not thought that he was strong
enough to attempt TO walk from Fair
held Center to Waterville. and if he
had he would have been seen on the
road. The case remains a mystery.
