HIS LIFE A DOUBLE SUCCESS.
April 26 there died in the city of Chicago one of the very few
successful men who have ever lived.
Reference is here made to the late Dr. D. K. Pearsons, the
fine souled philanthropist, who lived 92 years. '
Having accumulated a fortune of $7,000,000 by real estate
investments, he started when 80 years of age to give it away.
Ho helped endow more than 50 small, struggling colleges, be
cause he believed the small college afforded the poor young peo
ple the best chance.
He also gave largely to charity and for 50 years aided young
men to get an education.
Dr. Pearsons gave away every dollar of his big fortune, re
serving only a small life annuity to keep soul and body togeth
er till death.
He was doubly successful.
Many men have known the satisfaction of making money.
Few have known both the joy and the pride of the victor in
making a fortune and the pride and joy of the philanthropist in
giving every bit of it away.
He was twice successful.
, He lived a completed life.
Which is a rare accomplishment.
Death when it comes to most men finds them with unfin
inncd plans, or, if their plans are successfully worked out, there
yet remains the problem of the successful administration of
their affairs when they shall be dead.
They "heap up riches knowing not who will gather it." .
They know the lawyers will gather some.
And they fear lest the heirs may dissipate the remainder.
Dr. Pearson was his own executor.
He successfully administered bis estate while living.
And he had the pleasure in the disbursement of his wealth, of
seeing the good it would do.
His money went where he wanted it to go, and for the good
of mankind.
Successful old man!
He went the limit of benevolence.
Other millionaires gave away money but not all of it.
Some of them cannot keep up with the natural increase and
are in grave danger of "the disgrace of dying rich."
Giving all, Dr. Pearsons, of all the rich men of his day, was
the one successful giver.
Success?
Success is like a pyramid. r
Broad at the base, broad as the thronging millions who live
their little day and win or fail.
Towering upwards, its form narrows and scattered along-its"
nides are the few who have been fairly successful.
At its top their bright figures lit up with the pure sunshine
of merited fame are the very few who have lived a complete
and successful life.
Of these the gentle-hearted nona-genarian who died in Chicago
was one.

Visum THE EAST
A. A. Ue, of the Salem Abstract Co.,
lias returned from a trip In the east.
Mr. Lee went primarily as a delegate
from Oregon to the Methodist church
conference at Minneapolis, at which
pine ho spent one month. He then
went to Indiana, his former home,
where he spent several weeks. Iluv
ing relatives and friends in northern
Illinois, Indiana uiul Michigan, he
spent some time visiting there.
When asked about the prosperity
and progress of tho country, Mr. Lee
stated that the limit of high prices
must certainly have been reached.
When farm products sell nt the prices
they do In the markets of the east, the
question of the hlnh cost of living
cannot be laid to any other source
than that.
lu comparison of the climate of the
cast ami the west, Mr. I.ee said that
upon his arrival home, he went to bed
without exercising ordinary discretion,
for with but a sheet over him for cov
er In Oregon, he awakened In tho mid
dle of the night cold and shivering.
This condition would not cslut In the
east.
Tho crop prospect Is not very prom
ising In tho districts vlr.lted. but with
favorable weather the country will
produce a fair crop this year.
