"Without or with offense to friends or foes 1 sketch your world exactly as it goes." -bthon. Honest Fortunes Mark Sullivan calls attention to the fact that William Jennings Bryan in 1896 used to say in his campaign for the presidency: "No man makes a million dollars honestly." Thereafter he began to amass wealth himself on the lecture platform and in his third campaign in 1908, realizing in his own experience that an individual can make more than ?50,000 a year, changed his declaration to "no man can make $3,000,000 honestly." Bryan, in his 30 years of lecturing and writing earned honestly approximately $1,500,000, little of it through specu lation or investment. lie left an estate of about half this amount, proving this contention, like many of his other con tentions, false. That no man can amass a million honestly has always been the contention of the agitator and neer-do-well. No limit can be placed upon the amount of money an individual can make, in a life time honestly. Bryan proved that, without utilizing other individuals or resources than himself, over a million could be made. Henry Ford has proved that by supplementing his own creative and administrative sibilily by that of others and by utilizing natural resources, a man can in less than a life time, make a billion honestly with out resort to speculation. Speculation in itself is not dishonest but fortunes secured through it are "unearned increment." Still it is speculation, the inherent love of taking a chance in the hope of getting something for nothing, that puts the drug in druggery, the lure that keeps the tread-mill going.

SCHOOL BOY IS SUICIDE Oakland, Ci',1., Aug. 12. (A. ) Glen Woodside, school boy, died here yesterday eliortly after taking poison. Earlier in the day his mother had reprimanded him for failing to complete an errand. He disappeared for an hour and his mother found him in the bath room of I heir home in a dying condition Waterloo, Iowa. Aug. 12 CAP) White the funeral dirge sounds at Relnbeck, Iowa, today for the Rev. R. J. Vandervoort. pastor of the birtit Methodist church at Parkersburg, surgeons will be per forming an operation on his wife at a hospital here. Both were shot by their eon Warren, 17, last Thura day night, The son will not attend the fun eral of hia futher. Nor will he be advised as to the condition of hia mother. .Since the shooting ho has expressed no curiosity aa to his father's funeral or whether the two rifle shots he fired Into his mother's head and throat had prov en fatal Should this supercilious air leave him and should he ask that he be permitted to attend Ws father'8 funeral, he will not be allowed io do so, Sherlf: Burma has previous ly stated. Surgeons believed early todny that In view of .Mrs. Vandervoort's remarkable vitality she will sur vive the operation, which will be performed in an effort to remove the bullet that lodged in her neck. The lead lodged at the base of her brain will be left, physicians said, unless developments make it neces sary for a lost desperate effort to .save her- life.

DUMB DORA By Chick Young New York's Campaign New York is assured of a colorful mnyorality campaign, especially in the Democratic primaries. Mayor Jolin F. Hylan is seeking to establish a precedent by re-election to a third term. Supporting him are the Hearst newspapers and organization, and the army of city employes. Opposed to liim and seeking to get rid of Hylan and "Hylanism" are Tammany Hall and Governor Al Smith. Ordinarily !n Greater New York, the leaders of the parly in tho five boroughs pick the democratic candidate. Three of these borough bosses favor Hylan. But the votes in the other two boroughs far exceed the vote in the three boroughs where Hylanites control the party machinery, so whatever advantage there is in leaders is offset by fallowings, Hylan is a picturesque figure, resembling in a great many ways our own governor, except that he weeps for the poor strap-hanger and five cent fare, where Walter does for white. faced calves and lower taxes. He is probably the best little promisor of big things in office, always excepting our own executive, and has many of the hitter's eccentricities of genius. Both are great campaigners and great phrase-makers. Tammany has picked, to oppose Hylan, State Senator James J. Walker, an even more picturesque character. He is an orator of note, keen of wit and of scathing repartee, lie is the author of the once popular sentimental ballad "Will vou love me in September as you do in May?" He is best known in New York for his efforts to bring about a return of 2.75 percent beer. So strong is the revolt against Hylan, that even if he wins Hie nomination, his election is far from assured, for Tarn many leaders would prefer a republican mayor to the present incumbent. One Wife on Approval Ry Violcl Dare MOIti: FOOl Ft HI SCANDAIj To Cynthia It lueiued that the train crawled westward as It bore her to Han Francisco nnd .lim. She tried to riuvm why ho had Vaulted her. perhaps he had de cided that It would lie better for them to nettl everything out there than nt home. Perhaps he wan led ht-r to live in San Krum biro long enough to get a divorce there of course that would be a better way. tn one way, than for her to get it at home. And ytt, there was hi telegram.
