Trouble with Large Families.

Mrs. Julia Walker. of New York, has
had an experience which convinces her
that President Roosevelt's remarks on
race suicide" are not appreciated by the
public. She has family OF seven children
and has had great difficulty in renting any
place for the family TO live in. as land
lords objected to the size of her family.
She has been dispossessed because of the
size of her family. and not because of any
failure to pay the rent. There Is good
deal In that complaint. Children are OBJ
5ected to in boarding houses and in other
places. A premium Is in that way placed
