PRISON BLESSINGS FOR THE men
A San Francisco millionaire. after
serving a sentence in the federal pris-
on at Atlanta, says: MlNot only have
sixteen months been the most useful
of my career, but this period has been
the happiest of my life. and I have
derived more god from my work at the
prison than at any other time."
111 view of this testimony, it is hard
to sympathize with the strenuous ef-
forts of millionaires in general to

poor man. It breaks spirit. lie comes
t‘orth only too often an omast and a
physical and moral wreck. fie has lost
step with the world, and the world
doesn‘t want him. ‘It won't even give
him a job, unless he lies about his re-
cord.
But it's different with a rich man.
'He generally regards his imprisonment
as a martyrdom, and comes forth
proud and defiant. His friends very of- I
tell take the same v.iew They web‘
come him back and comfort him His
sentence is not so much a stigma on
his reputation as a mark of the enmity

the deal gy of a district attorney.
A rich convict, therefore, can keep
his nerve and find scope for his talent
'by playing philanthropist in prison.
That is what this man did. He found-
ed a prison library, he fraternizetl
with his less fortunate fellow-prison- I
ers and helped many of them finan-
ciali y to get a fresh start when they
regained their freedom. He had a fine
time doing it, and be accomplished a. ,
great deal of good.
iRealll, the more you contemplate
this matter, the stranger It seems that
rich men should try so hard to keep
,out of the penitentiary. They may find
there mental rest, wise reflection and
the philanthropic opportunity of a
lifetime.

From Chicago comes a new type of
matrimonial separation. Mr. and Mrs.
Hyman Drain, after twenty years of
married life, decided that they couldn't

temper. They thereupon made out and
signed the following agreement:
“April 15, 1915.—-We have this day
entered into an agreement that I, Hy-
man Draln, shall keep away from my
wife, Rose, because we cannot get
along together; also that I will be in

gives me 81, for which 'i promise to
keep away from her and her property
forever."

They handed the document to the
police Judge, before whom they had
been arraigned for disorderly conduct.
The judge flied away the agreement
and let them go.
There are probably a good many

price.
