HE New York Commercial, a purely business publication with Rockefeller’s millions are far in excess of the five hundred usually accredited to him The paper’s informant remarks: ‘He will in a few years be actually worth $1,000,000,000, the first billionaire the world has ever seen.” He fixes $6,000,000 a month as Mr. Rocke. feller’s income and puts Andrew Carnegie next at $1,250,000. These are interesting figures, and probably true. The amaz- ing ability for accumulating has been supplemented by equally astonishing ability for administrating the acquisitions, The exploiting of a few natural rights did it all. Some thoughtful persons have amused themselves by looking hopefully forward to the time when the Standard Oil Company will own and manage the United States instead of using it occasionally, It seems to be the only way of procuring a proper amount of wealth for everybody. The world has hardly room enough in it to accommodate ‘many billionaires: and leave the rest of the folks car fare. Luckily Mr. Rockefeller cannot carry his billion around in his clothes. The nature of things compels him to let other people use most of his property and a million thrive in the employ of industries held under his investment. The “System” must lose a good deal ofmoney in ventures into which its members are pushed by their money or they would soon potsess the accumulations of everybody, In New Zealand there is a region abounding in little nodules of magnetic iron ore. They are attracted toward each other, and in turn roll together into the nearest depression. These groups are always forming, always growing, gaining attracting power with each new addition, until it becomes handier for the miner to pick them up with a shovel. Perhaps this is the way with money. The final poift is; ‘‘Who’s got the shovel ?”’ (Copyright, 1004, by Ames? tally, as she would have proudly told you herself, there was nothing she didn't know about the world, Actually, she had met about half a dozen men In her life and was a thoroughly unsophis- tieated baby, Her work, in which she was fortunately successful, threw her with many men, most of them more or less interesting, and some of them charming, She was pretty, and they seemed anxious to show her some at- tention, She thus summed her exper- lence to me: “One Mterary man fifty years old, after knowing me for sx months, said that he thought I possessed very un- usual talent and that he wanted me to collaborate with him on his next book. Would I dine with him at a well-known | (i, restaurant and talk over the plot? Need- less to say I was flattered and went. In the course of gn hour's dinner I waited anxiously for a reference to the book, But it didn't come, He contented himeelf with telling me that I was — handsome, I never dined with him any more, I tried two others, much younger, who were from the South, and whose families had known mine, asked me over the oyster If I had ever been kissed and if I didn't think the protection of a strong man's arms wae better than all the literature in the world, The other sad something just as foolish and presumptious—I forget just what—and: as a result I adopted the rule that most women do eventu- ally; not to mix my business and socia) acquaintances. But I have few social acquaintances ani the result Is I'm get- ‘ting to be a regular old maid."
