Puck tugs at the coat-tails of Andrew Carnegie, as he and John D. Rockefeller, Junior, pile money bags around the base of a statue labeled “Fame,” which they seek by endowing libraries and universities. Puck is suggesting that they could do more good for society by endowing places like a “Home for Consumptives.” Caption: Puck — You have qualified thoroughly as modern philanthropists, now why not do some good?
