stantly being enlarged to accommodate
the growing industry, but still she must
annually dispose of from two to three
hundred children. They are burden
to the state, and her citizens will have
none of them to adopt, so what be-
comes of these little ones?
It's pretty hard work trying to dis
pose of these little children, but Bos-
ton gets rid of them very simply
easily, quickly and what is more pleas
ing to Boston, quite effectually. With
three hundred to select from, and no
questions asked, these youngsters are
grouped into parcels of, say, from
twenty to thirty-fve; an agent and
three or four Boston ladies who can
impress the westerner with their intel
lectual superiority and good looks,
gather together one of these little hu-
man groups and start for the west, gra-
ciously dividing the territory to be in
vaded with New York each year. The
west particularly Kansas = asks ne
questions, but adopts these little ones
year after year and not infrequently
pays handsome prices for the privilege
of adopting nice pair of little curly
headed babes. The traffic is thus car.
ried on.
That the people Of the west and
northwest should be SO gullibIe as to
tolerate and accept this product that IL
brought to it each year, is the more sur
prising when one considers the brutal
frankness with which it is condemned
in Boston, but seemingly cannot be
checked. It is a shame and disgrace,
q blot upon the prevailing social condi-
tions Of any city that acknowledges
such state of affairs; but particular
ly is this true Of Boston when one con-
siders her pretentions of intellectual
refinement and of spiritual attain
ments. ~ am Bostonian," may be q
proud claim, but her own pride should
teach her citizens that by this time the
term is obsolete; for there are those
scattered all over the west and north
west, young and old, male and female,
in good homes and in bad homes, in
jails and in penitentiaries who can with
as much gusto and pride as effete Bos-
ton, point to themselves and say: "I
am Bostonianp Verify, the mill will
never grind with the water that is past,
but the mill in Boston grinds contin-
ually. Rome, in all her glory could not

Thumb Rings.

Mems thumb rings are no rarities to
collectors. Some of the Roman speci-
mems must have been cumbrous to
wear, one in the Montfaucon collection
bearing the bust of Trajan's consort,
Plotina, measuring over three inches
across. Medieval churchmen of high
degree did not allow "the largest, first
and shortest of the fingers" to go una
dorned. A massive gold ring was found
upon the thumb of the supposed skele-
ton of Hilary, bishop of Chichester,
who died in 1859, and the recumbent
effigy of Bishop Oldham in Exeter ca
thedral is remarkable for the pressed
together thumbs being incIosed in
single ring.
When the shrine of Sir Thomas
Beckett was robbed of it's treasures,
the famous archbishop's thumb ring,
given him by the king of France,
graced with ruby the size of a hens
egg, found its way to the thumb of
bluff King Hal, and as the humor Of
the king is always voted just the thing
we may be sure the royal hand was not
the only one so decked at court. May
ors and aldermen initiated their betters.
"When was about thy years, Hail."

marks about tradition and biogra-
ply and the work of the historical stu
dent now and in the days to come, and
it seems to me he applied special
meaning all his own to those terms.
First he said tradition was not history.
Now if Webster of dictionary fame
knows anything about the meaning of
that word, tradition in its ordinary
sense is an unwritten history or record
of events and customs handed down
by word of mouth from one generation
to another. Next he said biography de-
tracts from the mass to enrich the in
dividual. This brings us back to the
definition of our method of study
which says we must accept the authors
point of view. Bearing this in mind
we shall see that an accurate biogra-
ply adds to the history of the mass or
nation instead of detracting from it.,
because the facts taken from the gen.
eral history are not destroyed but
merely used and filled out with others
derived from a special source.
With regard to the work of the his
torical student of the future, it will be
no more necessary for him to read all
that has been written as the history of
the present time in order to study the
conditions of his own time, than it is
for us to learn all that happened in the
times of King John of England; be-
cause only few things will make any
lasting impression to be felt in years to
come, just as Magma Charta does now.
But if he desires to study the condi-
tions of our time he must refer to
some authority who treats the subject
from that point of view, or in other
words he must read nearly as extern
sively as we do now. e. G. A.

BOstOn's Traffic in
Humanity.

w YHILE perusing the columns
M of certain Boston society
Y v paper a few nights since
the writer noticed a bit of
editorial satire that read
something like this:
"Won't some Of our matrons adopt a
real live baby? Over three hundred
to select FROM"
A word of explanation. Some few
weeks since, there was held in Boston's
famous-Copley's-art halls an exhibi-
tion of pictures and photographs of
infants and children, and as might be
expected at such an exhibition, the
matrons would be justly proud and a
bit vain of their own, while the ma
tronly motherless would sigh and whis-
per touching sentiments of disappoint-
ment, hence the editorial in the most
fashionable and correct of society Jour-
nails.
Over three hundred to select from
The hint while brutally frank, is
nevertheless proper, and 1 congratulate
the editor on his good and sensible de-
cisiOn in laying the truth before his
patrons, who are composed of the rich
est and most influential of BostOn's
citizens, and who ought to realize by
this time that there are two kinds of
BABY shows to be seen in Boston, the
vain, artificial, pictorial reviews at
Copley's each year, and the real live
baby show that few care to see and
fewer care to adopt
Each year finds an increase in this
live baby colony; some of them the
helpless legitimate orphans of honest
poor folk, most of them ushered into
this world God only knows how and by
whom. Boston does not want this hu-
man product, altho her matrons and
maids and gentlemen do not stint in
providing funds for a temporary shell
ter for these little ones, but they will
have none of them. What becomes
of these children? The poorhouses
of Massachusetts, are crowded to over
flowing with old and young Of both
sexes, mostly young women; her pris-
ons are full; her orphanages are con-

A Builders Lesson.

''How shall habit break?"
As you did that habit make,
AS you gathered you must loose;
AS you yielded, now refuse.
Thread by thread the strands we twist
Till they bind us hand and wrist:
Thread by thread the patient hand
Must untwine, ere free we stand;
AS we builded, stone by stone,
We must toll, unhelped, alone,
Till the wall is Overthrown.
But remember, as we try,
Lighter every fest goes by:
Wading in. the stream grows deep
Toward the center's downward sweep;
Backward turn, each step ashore.
Shailower is than that before.
All, the preciousi years we waste,
Leveling what we raised in haste,
Doing what must be undone
Ere content or loye be won!
First across the gulf we cast
Kite borne threads till lines are passed,
And habit builds the bridge at last.
John Boyle O'Reilly
