The Choice of a Wise Woman Realizing the Magnitude of a Task Bequeather by Her Husband She Made the Best Possible Solution of Her Problem—A Trust ____Company to the Rescue. The tendency of the times is to ward a greater realization of the re sponsiblllty of the state in its rela tlon to the individual. Public sor vice commissions, direct primaries, u greater sense of the obligation of the strongor toward the weaker and in general an amelioration of the condi tlons of living are an outcome of the awakened public conscience within the last few yearn. And this re newed sense of brotherhood has no» alone taken the form of more solid tude for the weaker in our human relations but the state's and society's obligation to protect properly with every safeguard has been recogniz'd as never before. We see legislatures enacting laws to assure honest man agement of hanks and trust compa nies, enactments not prompted by breaches of trust on the part of the officials of such Institutions, bur rather brought about through à de sire to make assurance doubly sure, and with a view Vo keeping step with the awakened public Interest in all that pertains to the conserving of the products of thrift and intelligence. With this greater sense of the state's duty toward the individual has come a corresponding confidence on the part of the individual toward the corporations which serve him In the more intimate things of life. Of these none so concerns the man of large or of small wealth as the man ner in which his estate Is to be ad ministered. It is every man's duty to provide for his family. During his lifetime the average man sue ceds in doing this In a way more or less satisfactory, and if there be blame he alone must bear the con sequences. Seeking an executor is a task from which most men shrink. Although It Is Inevitable that his property shall pass to others, it is natural for mankind to postpone the making of the document which event unity finds its way to the probate Court. A son, a brother, a friend quite naturally .suggest themselves to the prospective testator and not infrequently the burden fulls to a wife. oNt tone aeo in a N'ew Fne land city a gentleman who had won a large fortune-nearly a million bequeathed his entire estate to his wife and made her sole There were a executrix. son and daughter whose intersts the testator trusted oNw She respected her this entirely to the mother, woman was wise. i t !
