BY SAMUEL HOPKINS ADAMS This story fs not a true story, If it were, I should k fre th It would harrow the sensi too many eminently re epectab . Since it is mere ly a figmer the imag The thre were Jenks, } od B. Stufek i in nd by virtue of & 1 Opotis. And they all worked tn the Mammoth Mills. Jencks, Baq,, and Jencks, jr, toiled unremittingly in the offices y considered that it was their ¢ to do so, which doubtless it was. For one of them owned the Mammoth Mills and the other expected to. B. Slufek sweated profusely in the blooming-mill where the ten ton ingots of steel weave to and fro Ike giants tn the torture of a White heat and where, when you} become torpid from over-exhaustion | and have an arm burned off, a gen. erous paternal management pays m $190 compensation—if you're lucky. B. Slufek worked there, not because he considered it his duty Dut because he had to make a liv ing. He dk make it. Not in any real sense, that ts. Jencks, Esq. was a highly es. teemed citizen. All the newspapers gaid so. By this they meant that} he was worth several million dol-| _ He employed five thousand | en to make this sum for him, and Geemed himself a benefactor of! the human race. | “What would become of all these | poor fellows if it were not for me? he frequently satd, His tone, when he said this, was the tone of a| challenge. | Incidentally, he never thought to} inquire what did become of the | poor fellows. They worked. Divi- to Think About, Reprinted From the denda acerued, That was enough for Jencks, Esq. oO ally Jencks, Eaq., made an after dinner speech, expatiating upon the proud industrial achieve ments of Steelopolis. Jencks, jr listened to these apeeches with glowing affection. He believed of Jencks, Bsq., all that Jencks, Haq belloved of himself, He was very young and warm hearted and unas. pecting B. Stufek never heard any of the Joncks, Esq, The proud industrial achtevements of Steelop: olts wouldn't have interested him anyway, He was singly intent upon the proud Industrial achievement of gotting three meals per day for self and family Add to this, $11 a thonth for rent, and the problem looms large, Even at his princely wage of $1.65 for a \2hour day, with a pertodie working shift of 24 hours on end, B. Slufek some times ran into debt, This, I. sup pose, was due to Innate dopravity somewhere. Obviously the tmnate depravity must have been B. Slu fek’s. Tt could hardly have been Jencks, Esq.'s, For Jencks, Esq., was a good man, Whereas B. Slu fek was a regrettable Hun Everybody recognized the good. ness of Jencks, Eaqg. He regularly went to church and worshiped God At least, he worshiped his own idea of God Tt was & somewhat pe euliar idea. Nowhere tn ree ords of religion could you find any thing resembling the God of Jencks, aq, not even if you went back to Greek Pagantam. For, after all the gods of the Greeks were a pub lie sort of gods. They looked after everybody impartially.
