Of course, we are not concerned to assert that to be either middle class or indigent is necessarily to be wicked any more than to be highly placed, or to be a labourer in a sawpit, is necessarily to be virtuous. But, roughly speaking, that is what it amounts to.”
IF YOU ARE RICH,

The writer develops bis thesis as follows:- Occasionally you may come across a wicked much more easily encountered. The reasons aristocrat or a wicked working pickpocket in
for it all are fairly obvious, amounting indeed to a mere question of wealth. If you are very rich you cannot really be very wicked.
All our leading dukes and millionaires are notoriously-men of austere and virtuous life. And as for the working classes, it is a fact that. butter simply will not mek in their mouths, But when you come to the middle people, who are always short of money, and the low-down people who have no money at all-ught

·
Baron James, who began business in Paris in Frenchmen are naturally most interested in 1812. His marvellous financial ability was not hindered by too fine feelings; he fought to win, and many victims testified to his success. Loans, banking, railways-all contributed to swell his wealth. And, as his power grew, he took revenge for many old saubs,
His blunt speaking often passed the limits of ordinary rudeness.” He was never popular, and received liule credit for his really great generosity.
When he died, in 1868; his second son, Alphonie, whose death is now announced came to the financial throne. Born in 1817, he had a very careful training during the lifetime of his, father, and this, coupled with his great" financial talent, made him a worthily astute successor to Baron James.

"As to his philanthropy, it can be said that it was always sound, discriminating, 'and generous. Lately the Faris firm created a fund of £400,000 for the housing and improve ment of the working classeK.
Like all the Rothschilds, Baron Alphonse was a steadfast Jew, and his judaism was unaffected by the vigarnus Anti-Semitism that shook France during the course of the "Affaire Dreyfun." -
In 1897 Bamon Alphonse married Lord Rothschild's beautiful sinter, Leonora, and the Raroness has been for many years a brilliant figure in Parision society.
fle is succeeded by his only son, Edouard, who recently married Mile, Gormaine Hal- phen, His surviving daughter is Mme. Ephrussi, His brother, Baron Gustave, is the father of Lady Sassoon and of Mme Lambert, whose husband will probably now assume the man. agement of the Paris house.
The fortune of the late Baron Alphonse in not known to the outside world. Many estimates will be made, and all will be different. His actual private fortune cannot be less than fifteen millions sterling, The money the Parls firm controlled under his leadership would probably amount to two hundred millions sterling.
