With honest women in distress ii is diff

in New York have found, the discrimina-

on which the homes" for women are
based is, perhaps, that honest, industrious.
self-respecting women are not likely to
need their shelter. In ordinary times this
is true, as it is true of men, but this year
conditions are different and hunger and
want threaten many who have always
known comfort. Naturally, the inequali-
ties and apparent injustice of charity and
the social standard become prominent as
never before. but what the remedy is is not
so easy to say. 1t will hardly do to es-
tablish homes where a strict line is drawn
and where only honest women can enter
as one female philanthropist Of New York
advises. From such door a woman with

A Tendency to Guard Against.

Some Of our big charity societies are
seemingly dedicated to the proposition that
no man should be fed until his grand

book, and photographs filed of the
places in which the applicant has worked
for the last seven years. Just now they
are engaged In censure of societies which
are endeavoring to feed the hungry and
care for the friendess on more impulsive
principles. One can imagine an unqualified
tramp who had no grandfather and never
did a stroke of work, who nevertheless
could be given a breakfast without under
mining our social system; but here and
there may be found a Pecksniffian institu-
tion evidently believing that it's salaried
officers are not the only recipients of its
bounty who should not be listed and left
to starve pending the slow but superb op-
erations of a system of investigate which
guards itself against encouraging unwor-
thiness by rarely encouraging anybody.
