A MAJORITY Of the theatrical troupss
which ''go on the road" have angels. 4"
An angel is man, frequently a
butcher or a saloon keeper with more
money than brains, or a fat man with
plethoric purse and an empty Uranium
who has become love sick over the
flashing symmetry of a pair Of pink
tights. That man backs the company.
He is greedy or lustful or both That
Is the reason he is called an "angel. d"
The respectable, legitimate and gener
ally the successful companies, have
their own capital. Il is capital like
Jeiferson's or Days or Pa,mer's which
was made In the profession and Is
not angelic. These angelic"
companies are chiefly the ones
which fall which are worthless
artistically. morally and financially and
which, therefore. ought to fail. While
the foolishness the lovesickness or the
money Of the "angel" lasts, twenty. fifty.
sometimes hundred people draw sal
aries and travel about the country on a
half drunken, happy-go-iucly spree.
When the "angel" dies the company
goes to pieces" its members-men and
women, are stranded" Then they are
ION their uppers" till they float back Ia
the "Rlalto' haven in New York to avail,
lift from another angel" That /,

GIVE, BUT GIVE TO HELP.

This is not the time or the country fol
vague theories of charity or i'll consid
cred practices for curing or suppress
ing poverty James Mavor, Of the
University of Toronto, writing concern
ing the evils of public and privat,
charity, which is not systematic and
helpful, which is not intelligent and
scientific, says.
In very real sense the sins of the
fathers are visited uponIthe children. even
unto the third and fourth generation.
Whole nations may suffer for some class
sins OF bygone age Much Of the low
level OF modern life is due, we can hardly
doubt, to causes reaching far back In the
history Of each race-some Of them not
indeed so very far back, but still behind
the immediate range Of vision. Thus.
much Of the low level of modern life IS
due TO the existence of definite nucleus
Of hereditary pauperism. This heredi
tary pauperism is due again in a large
measure, no doubt, to the modes of dis.
pensing public and private charity
which have endured, more or less, from
the middle ages until now. And
the unfortunate and disagreeable fact
emerges In most inquiries on the sub
1ect that not few Of the charitable
agencies and not few charitable indi-
viduals are steadily adding to the ranks
OF professional pauperism by an i'll.
considered system Of doles. Il is hard TO
resist the moving Of the bowels Of com
passion and TO refuse to give coin to a
beggar, but after all, the giving Of the
coin is an easy salve TO the conscience.
lt is much easier, for example, than talk
ing pains to discover the exact reason
for the poverty of the beggar and setting
about to devise means at once to save
the man and prevent so far as NAV be
future cases of the same order need
not weary you with criticisms of the
results of indiscriminate aims giving.
These have been urged over and over
again by every charity organizer. from
Defoe in his essay "On Giving Aims

The farmer will reap little benefit from

The Hamilton Woollen Company 8
mills, at Globe Village, Massachusetts,
employing 1000 hands, shut down
yesterday, "undl the policy Of Con-
gress in regard to the tariff is defin.

likely frightens them. The prospect of
being compelled by competition to use
cheap wool instead of costly shoddy
appalls them. It is too bad It's also
not true. The mill stopped for the
same reasons that so many banks sus
