A Ltison In Financ That William B.
Taught Hn Beokkatpar. j
Tlie reul estate dealer wa reminis-;
cug. "Some years uo," tie said, "Wil- j
llara H. Astor fcaid one day to liia j
Iiead bookaeeKr. 1 !sli you to write ;
out those 1.2mi leases uiuuatiug the
doeuuieuts-'ire;:initory to releasing
the various ro-rtie for wliirb they
will 1 drawn ami redu.e eaili rental
j.rii e 25 er rent f'r the ensuing year.
The head bookkeeper, astonished. Ten
Hired to protest. 'There has been n
complaint. Mr. Aftor.' he said, 'from
any tenant as to the amount of rent
Thawed. All are satisfied to pay pres
ent prhea.
"This Is a matter of future busi
ness." the financier replied, 'as well as
present. Times are not esieolally good
Just now. and I do not think they will
Improve this year. I urn not, however,
making this reduction as a philan
thropic movement. It will be a good
business Investment for me to retain
all of my tenants. If iKisslble. Indi
cations are that business conditions
during the coming year will force
many persons to move Into cheaper
houses nnd flats than they have been
occupying for Fume time. I do not
wish inv tenants to move. I know
them and am familiar w ith their ways.
I am acquainted with their needs, de
mands and methods of paying their
rents. If they should move I should
have to try to replace them with new
tenants, whose desirability I have not
tested. Besides, I should have to spend
Iar;o sums In re tapering, painting and
arranging these various properties to
suit the new tenants. I!y reducing
rents I shall have a delighted lot of
tenants, who would lot leave me it
they could. Furthermore. I will make
It iniMissil)le for them to nnd as good
places elsewhere for the money. Nat
urally, having had their rents reduced,
they will not ask for any repairs that
can possibly be avoided, and 1 shall
save some money In that direction,
over previous years. Itesides, 1 shall
know the exact amount of reduction
and shall be able to estimate my re
sources accordingly. If. on the con
trary, I let many of my tenants move
out the-nmount of my losses would be
uncertain. You will find, If you com
pare my reutals at the end of the year
with those of similar properties own
ed by other persons who make uo re
ductions, that mine is n prolltablo plan.
When times Improve we can release at
advanced figures, and undoubtedly to
the same tenants.'
"The bookkeeper learned a lesson In
finance, the leases were drawn ac
cordingly, and Astor did not lose a
tenant." New York l'ress.

"Sunday Folk."
When Pr. John Cnirns went from
Scotland lo Irelimd for test and travel
in 1S!4 lie was at once delighted by
discovering from the guides who
showed him about that most of the
landed gentry were "Sunday folks."
"That's H tine castle," he would say,
point inif to u bin house set like a crown
on some rocky hill.
"Vis, roit," said his guide. " Tis Sit
John O'Connor's," or. " "l'is Sir Uory
O'More's." lie always added, "Ile' a
Sundah mon."
At hist Ir. Cairus grew curious.
"What is Sunday man?" he asked.
'Well, sorr. It do he a mon thot has
ro many writs out ag'in him for debt
that he stays shut up tight In Ills house
all the week nnd only comes out on
Sundah, when the law protects him."
Pr. Cairns' opinion of the lauded
gentry underwent a change.

Elephant! Can't Jump.
Tlio re is olio tiling no ono has ever
j seen mi elephant do elllier in u circus
or out of it, nnd that Is to jump," suid
a keeper In the Central park meu-ap'i-ie.
Tin' fact Is nil elephant cannot
jump, r.ivause of Ills Rfeat weight lie
cannot take nil four feet off the ground
at once, lie can make a 100 yard dash
at the rate of twenty miles an hour,
which is going some, but if he was
ursulng an enemy and came to a deep
liteh eight feet across he would have
to stop short, because It Is too wide for
him to step it and he is unable to jump.
u elephant Is a great coward, lie
w ill have a tit If a rabbit runs between
his feet. lie has tremendous strength.
but he doesn't know it. "-New York

A Curioua Illusion.
1 'tuple declare lli.it they have seen
a Held of p-ass gradually change color
diiiinu' a shower of rain, thousands of
mushrooms springing lip before their
eves. This is an optical illusion caus
ed by the raiu boating dowu the prass.
The mushrooms do not really sprint;
up dunns a sinple shower of raiu.
Thev are there already, but hidden by
the urass, and when the rain beats
down the prass It exposes the hidden
mushrooms. - London Mail.
