HOW TO REFORM CRIMINALS

Charles Dudley Warner Would Treat
Them as if They Were Sick.
Prison reform, with special reference
TO "indeter1ninate sentences" was the
subject of the monthly conference Of
the Charity Organization society held
in New York the other morning. w.
M. f. Round, secretary Of the New
York State Prison association, said that
under arbitrary penalties, with fixed
maximum and minimum limits, judge
could not always be just, as he could
not understand the man before him or
know what his sentence ought to be.
He praised the indeterminate sentence,
which, within certain limits, releases a
prisoner when, in the estimation of the
reformatory authorities. he has reform
ed, and not before. Under the old sys-
tenn, he said, the highest claim Of ref
ormations among discharged prisoners
was only 1S per cent, while under the
reform applied at Elmira the proportion
was 81 per cent.
Charles Dudley Warner spoke against
the present limitations on indeterminate
sentences and said he wished to correct
a popular misapprehension of the true
aignifcance of the present system.

In the glow Of perfect health and

who undoubtedly his the largest prac-
tice and the greatest success ia curing
all forms Of female weakness and dis

vice and counsel obtained by any
woman absolutely without charge,
either by calling or writing about her
case. From his enormous experience he
knows just how to cure your com plai ints,
just how to advise you, and he uses only
harmless vegetable medicines which are
wonderful in soothing, healing,
