$500 FOR AN OLD KINDNESS

Mrs. Albertson of Sedalia, Mo., Was Good to an Orphan and He Repays Her. Sedalia, Mo.—Mrs. J. T. Albertson, wife of a Sedalia painter, has received a check for SSOO from Daniel C. Jacklln of San Francisco, as a recognition of kindness extended to him years ago, when as an orphan he worked on the Albertson farm near here. Jacklin was left penniless when his parents died, but he worked his way through the Warrensburg Normal school and the Rolla School of Mines. He then went West, and as a mining engineer has accumulated wealth. His earnings run into the thousands yearly, and he receives large dividends from eighteen mining corporations in which he is a stockholder. He wants Mr. and Mrs. Albertson to join him on an eastern trip.
