PAuPERlSM IN ENGLAND.

Government Statistics Reveal Only Part
of the Dire and Growing Poverty.
The remarkable fact that throughout
the whole of England and Wales there
were at the end Of last year "a paupers ex-
isting on government charity in every
thousand of the population is contained in
u great mass of statistics on pauperism re-
Gently issued by the poor relief department
of the British government. The exact per-
ccntage was "a 3 paupers per /, 900 OF pop
ulation. There was great increase of
pauperism during the year, many thou
sands of people, owing to the general bust
ness depression, being driven to ask for re-
lef for the first time in their lives, and
he officially recorded proportion of pau
perism reached the highest point in many
years The proportion was smallest in
1891, when it was 23.2 per 1000 of pop
ulation. This Is n remarkable fact in it.
self as indicating the normal amount of
extreme pauperism in England, for the
record Is only OF paupers applying for gov
eminent relief.
1t is curious fact that the proportion
of paupers - population is smaller in Lon
don than throughout the rest of England
and Wales. But there has been "a great
increase and continued growth of pauper-
ism in the metropolis In recent years which
is causing great deal of anxiety. In the
second week of last December there were
lO6, 1916 paupers in London, which was
equivalent To "a. 3 per 200 of the whole
population. This was g. 926 more paupers
than were receiving relief in the city in
the corresponding week Of the previous
year and u greater number than in any
year since 1872.
The proportion of paupersm in London
was highest in the years 1867 and 1869,
when it reached AIS and As. / respectively
per 1000 of population. But these We're
years of exceptional depression, and the
astounding figures have never been reached
In any other year since the Inauguration
of the present system of statistics. The
lowest point was reached in 1891, when
the proportion of paupers was 22.4 per
1000 of population. Since that year there
has been steady growth of pauperism in
the metropolis, and at such a rate and
with such coinoident circumstances us to
be the cause Of much anxiety to the au-
thorities and matter Of great public con
Germ.
But these figures are of the paupcrism
only that comes TO official notice, and the
record takes no account of the vast amount
Of poverty that is relieved by private char
lty and through other than government
sources. To ''go ON the parish" is the last
and much dreaded resort Of the honest
poor only to be awaited Of in direst ex-
tremity, and the ooroners' records show
that many unfortunates have died OF ac-
tual starvation rather than thus apply for
public charity. More than dozen Of such
sad cases are noted on the official returns
Of inquests held In London alone during
last year. So that the startling showing
Of "a paupers in every 1000 inhabitants
Is only part of the picture of poverty in
England. New York Sun.

From diary kept by one of the survey
ors 1t appears that the first use Of petroleum
as remedy in this country occurred in
the neighborhood of the head waters of the
Allegheny, in the western part of New
York, about the beginning of the present
century. As the oil flowed from spring
it accumulated on the surface of shallow
pools, and its medicinal properties were
first recognized by the Indians in that sec
tion of the country. This oil, which was
then known as Seneca oil, was collected
and dried in the sun, and in addition to
its medicinal use 1t was also employed for
mixing the warpaint for the tribe. AS an
evidence Of the correctness of this histor-
ical fragment, 1t is said that there is still II
section Of the country known as Oil Spring
reservation, this location, or plot of
ground, having been given to the Indians

MONEY IN CHEAP NOVELS.
How Some New York Dealers Eat Their
Cake and Have II Too,

How Some New York Dealers Eat Their
Cake and Have II Too.
There are good profits to be made by
dealing In secondhand books Ia n city like
New York, and one dealer has found out
how to "eat his cake and have IL, too"
which careful mothers tell their children
cannot he done. This dealer, with an eye
to the pennies, will take a paper covered
novel, published at so cents, but which he
has bought for 80, aud sell it for 80 cents,
with the understanding that the buyer is
to return Il when read. When the book
comes back, he pays go cents for 1t and
puts It up for sale again at 80 cents. The
second buyer returns the book and receives
IS cents, and for third time the book is
on the shelves, this time marked 90 cents.
Again it comes back, the reader takes 10
cents, and the book, IL by careful patching
it can be kept in decent condition, will
change owners half dozen times, leaving
to the dealer Profit Of nickel every time
It comes TO the store. Books have often,
through careful handling, paid 200 per
cent on the original Investment, and at
the end found their way back to the shelves
Of the dealer, who has the profits and the
book.
Another system then comes into play.
Books will be sold on the 1.-TWO for one"
plan. In this scheme buyer will take
two books at, say, 90 cents each, paying 40
cents in cash. When these have been read,
they are returnable. and the dealer will
give any 20 cent book in the place for the
two brought back. When the 90 cent book
IL returned, a 10 cent volume may be taken
in exchange, and when this last comes
back nickel and the book will bring out
another 10 cent book. This process may
