A physician maintains in the Medi-
cal Journal that it is not poverty of
diet so much rs monotony of diet that
exercises an unhealthful influence on
the poor. AS matter of fact they eat
stronger" food than the rich, more
bread, meat and simple vegetables, but
their cooking is rude, and they eat the
same things the whole year through.
People who are well to do, or who are
better cooks, get more variety with
fewer things, and always have some
thing to tempt the appetite, Soup
can be made to resemble greasy dish
water, or it can be made really savory
and nutritious thing, and there are a
hundred different ways of serving pota-
toes. The physician thinks that free
cooking schools would be first rate
thing IN the tenement districts.

pie are now the most comfortably

derful progress has never been more
marked than it is at present. In the

Inventive genius is continually de

There is wonderful activity in all lines

the looms, the mills and the factories,
and at lower price than ever before.
The opportunities for education by
schools, colleges and free libraries
have been constantly increased. Never
before has religious and philanthropic
thought been more awakened and gen

relieve the suffering, to provide for the
needy and minister to the unfortunate.
