It Is not a Bad Way to Do.

“A. R. Peacock, one of the Pittsburg group of steel-made multi-millionaires, has discovered a new way of avoiding the disgrace of dying rich,” says the New York World. “He is looking up the friends of his youth whose ships failed to come in as well-laden with gold as his own, and presenting them with consolation prizes in the form of homesteads of their own selection.” Instead of giving to great public institutions, he is going to lift the burdens, and make glad the hearts, of his friends who are poor and needy. And it is not a bad thing to do, is it? It may be better for him than for them.
