NOBODY’S FOOLISH BUT FATHER The action of the courts in respect to the will of George 8. Meyers, the St. Louis tobacco manufacturer, onght to be a warning to all of us who are digging and sweating to become millionaires. George's estate sized up at $4,365,000, but he willed that his heirs receive only the income. This didn’t suit the heirs at all. They felt that George, being dead, was dead, and shouldn't be permitted to fix things so that the pie couldn't be cut and eaten at onee. So they instituted sult to contest the will, on the ground that George was of unsound mind when he made it. George being so dead that he couldn't kick, the courts have ordered immediate distribution of the estate. Of course, the decision is a good thing, for the reason that the sooner a big estate is dissipated the better. But it is also some umere evidence as to the futility of making wills. Here is a remarkable in- stance where there was no quarrel amongst the heirs, and so the beloved ones left behind went to quarreling with the corpse. making it a matter of court record that idiotic.
