SCALE OF VALUES?
This story, whether true or apocryphal, points its own moral, and is a sign of the times. Four men died on the same day—an author, a bookseller, a publisher, and a waste-paper dealer. The author left £5, the bookseller £ls, the publisher £SOO, and the waste-paper dealer £50,000. ‘ Manchester Guardian.’
