Mr.. Warmers book is a valuable addi-
ton to the worlds stock Of useful know
ledge. When we fully realize that we
must always have the poor with us. We
perceive the necessity for an intelligent
treatment OF the unfortunate and tbs
wisest course for preventing the Increase
of poverty. The subject is not one to
attract readers. but its tremendous in>
portance in a philanthropic and economic
view OF human life demands the atten-
ton OF statesmen and OF people at large
as we'll. Reckless and indiscrIminate
giving, which describes very large per-
centage Of charitable work, does, with
out any question. tend to encourage ard
increase pauperism, while 1t diverts ana
wastes the means which should be used
TO stimulate sef-support.
The author makes a searching analysis
OF the cause of poverty, giving elaborats
tables, compiled in many different cities
in America and other lands. which throw
much light upon the subject las TO
