Gould, the publication of whose domestic unhapplness has added to the more or less sensa tional gossip in which the family of the late Jay Gould has become in volved, did not go into particulars, but he bluntly declared that his trouble was "the curse of money." "If I had been a poor chap," he said, "I might have escaped it all." And so he might. And yet there Is no fundamental reason why young Gould having been born rich, was doomed to matrimonial misery or any other form of unhapplness that might not have befallen him if he had been obliged to earn his living, it will be admitted, however, that the peace and happiness of tho very rich as a class, are in peculiar jeo pardy. Witness the entanglements and disagreements and the scandals that have affected many of the wealthy families of this country, more especially in Now York. Pitts burg and Philadelphia. Tho Kansas City Star says: The miserable rich are probably not looking for sympathy or advice from the comfortable poor or the happy possessors of fair incomes. But the secret of worldly content must bo found among tlioso who have definite occupations, bo they poor or rich or between these ex tremes. It is an axiom that the thing possessed without effort brings less enjoyment than tho thing attain ed by work and purpose. Thus a fortune unearned usually brings less happiness than a fortune honestly acquired. Hut even tho unearned fortune may be made to servo a great purpose In its possessor's scheme of happiness if he lias a 8chemo and that Is practically the wholo mutter. It is the niinlessness, tho Idleness of tho rich that brings discontent and its attendant ills. And along with tho Internal dis orders that arise from lack of worthy purpose, is a constantly in creasing public resentment toward vast fortunes. This public attltudo is not hard to understand. Tliero Is moro and moro Insistence on tho question, "How did ho got It," and for the Tory simple reason that most of the very big fortunes have been made by "Jobbing" tho people In one way or another they largely represent tribute, lognl or Illegal, but essen tially Immoral, essentially dangerous to tho equilibrium of wealth and tho social order. Tho peoplo do not resont honest wealth, if It is em ployed to a purpose If Us benefi ciaries do not use It merely for the financing of lavish and spectacular Idleness, for tho opulent display of a wholly assumed superiority. Wealth that Is not possessed with a sense of responsibility, that is not employed in sonio one of the many directions that opons opportunities for accomplishment other than that of mere accumulation is less to be desired than moro competence. A multl-mllliomiiro whoso chief aim Is to drlvo tho best four-ln-hand that money will buy or to glvo tho must lavish dinners that can bo prepared is not inviting admiration or hap piness. If ho cares for either ho must do something worth while worth while to the public in well ns to himself. Such a purposo t.iul effort necessarily bring him in touch with tho currents of huni'iul y -a necessary contiguity If a life 1j to be nuulo worth tho living. Breathes there a man with soul so dead, Who never to himself hath said: "Tomorrow morning I will rise Before the sun lights up the skies. "I'll set this clock so It will ring Before the birds begin to sing; Its strident bell will me awake, An early morning walk I'll take." And when at an ungodly hour Next morn, the clock with all its power Made noise enough to stir the dead, And woke the man upon the bed Breathes there a man I now repeat, Who wouldn't chuck it in the street, And back Into the bed then leap, And with a sigh go off to sleep?

As the procession passed through the narrow road the husband called: "Not so near the hedge, friends! NohgBO near the hedge!" -4 40' HIS ARGUMENTS WITH MURPHY. Tho late Francis Murphy, temper- j ance advocate had many an adven-1 ture in the course of his very useful life. He once told of a case in which a man got a little the better of him in an argument. The man was a clubman, a gen erous liver, famous for his wine cellar; and MK Murphy read him a strong lecture on the drink evil. But the bon vlvant only smiled. shook his head and said: , "Well, Mr. Murphy, I have seen I many a pleasant party around a table, but have never seen one around a pump." Dccsn't Always Follow.

"Look, here, did you catch these flsh in fresh water or salt water," asked a Coos Bay wife of hubby who brought home from his trip something more than fish. "Really, m'dear, I didn't taste it," and this ended the discussion. KEENE'S FINANCIAL JEST. James R. Keene told this story il lustrative of "high finance" at the Waldorf the other night: A Kentucky darky negotiated a loan for ?10 from a local banker, pledging his mule and cart as secur ity. "Money is pretty tight," explained the banker, "and I shall have to charge you $2.50 for the use of the $10 for a month." Tho darky consented, signed the papers, and half an hour later was found by a friend standing in the road scratching his wool with one hand and looking ruefully at the 57.50 in his other. "W'ts de matter, Sam?" asked the friend. "Oh, dere ain't nothing de matter, cept I knows I'se right. Dat bank man he done charge mo $2.50 for $10 for a month. I'se right, suh, fo' if I had a ast fo' de ten fo' foali imonths I wouldn't a got nothing.' " Philadelphia Record. It Improves a girl's looks Immensely to be rich. New York Pros.

One day when Dumas pore was man ager of the Theatre Illstorlque ho hap pened to meet an old friend whom be had not seen for thirty years. "Where are you going to dine to night?" lie asked the friend. "Tonight I shall dine nowhere," was the answer. "Oh, no." said Dunins; "you are mis-, taken. You will dine with me." And lie led the friend Into his house and ff.ivo him tho upper place at his table. Evidently the poor man had not had Kiieh n dinner for a long time. So the generous hearted Dumas at the end of "Mie meal casually remarked: "It Is a matter of course that I ex pect you tomorrow nt the same time." The friend eame the next day and the day after this, and so on for ten years up to Ills death. One day he told Dumas that as he was eating bread that he did not earn this ar rangement could not continue. "If I am not able honestly to earn my meals, I shall not come again. Toll me In what way I can bo of service to ou." Dumas thought a moment, then said: "You can do me a great favor. Yon may go to the new bridge every day and take the temperature by Cheva lier's thermometer. The temperature, you must know, Is of great moment In tho matter of the sale of tickets. Could yon do this?" The poor fellow answered affirma tively and from that time on reported to Dumas every day: "At noon the thermometer showed so and m many degrees in the shade." And Dumas, who of course did not care In the least about the tempera ture, replied with tho sumo regularity: "l am very much obliged. If you only knew what a service you aro do ing mo!" Harper's.
