and never win, enough mind to know
that they are alive. The bill Is in the
hands of a committee and will prob
ably be buried. 1t is said that DR.. w.
B. Fletcher, the alienist of indianapolis,
is heartily in sympathy with this posi-
tion, though he says he knows the idea
will meet with opposition. He believes
this is the best thing that can happen
to incurable cases.
This calls to my mind an article
published some years ago. This ar
ticle was protest against using
the discoveries Of science for prolong-
ing human suffering, in cases that are
known to be incurable and advocates
helping the incurably sick in certain
cases, TO a speedy and painless death.
This worker maintains that the kind
ness which we exercise toward the
brute creation we deny to our own
species, 1--WE speak," he says. "of their
approaching death as a happy release,
while we forcibly exert every means to
combat nature. and to prolOng their
torture indefinitely. He argues that
science, which has taught us the art of
living, should also teach The art of dy-
ing, and he would have a place pro-
vided where a person who desired to
die, and whose death would be a re-
lief and a mercy to both the sufferer
and his friends, should be allowed to
sink into the dreamless sleep, lulled by
the strains of music and surrounded by
the perfume of flowers. Not only is
the sufferer often obliged to endure
torture from diseases for weeks and
months, but he may during all this
time be haunted with the fear of still
greater agony when death at last
comes. BY the plan proposed, death
is made sure and painless and the
physical dread Of it entirely removed.
/ do not for a moment wish to be
understood as advocating the adop-
tion of either of these plans, but they
are mentioned to show what scientific
men are thinking about. II will prob
ably be many years before the general
moral sentiment of the people will per-
NIT either of these measures. There IS
first, the belief that willfully cutting
off a human life by any artificial means
would be an act I'm opposition to tho
Divine VIII. 1t is argued, on the other
hand, however. that prolonging life and
suffering of the forcible administration
of stimulants and food may be equally
a defeat of that will Then Of course
there would he the danger that tn,
power to eXercise this right to take
life might be misused. on the Who'll,
with all that might be said i'm favor

THAT HELP PROBLEM.
Enterprise Reports a Case Where It
Was q Burden.

In one of the eastern dailies there
has recently appeared the following
advertisement purporting to be taken
from the coluwns OF q western jour-
nal:
Farm help wanted. Wages will be
$6 day. Breakfast will be served
in bed. Working hours will be from
10 a. m. to 2 p. m. All heavy work
is to be done by the boss. Cigars
furnished free. ANY hand working
the entire season can have the farm.
The Enterprise Journal in Comment
ing on the advertisement gives an
instance OF where the problem was no
joke. 1t says: During the lato two
or three years it has not been difficult
to find instances where the crop was
insufficient to do more than simply
pay the labor item. We have in
mind one instance where the owner
Of quarter section was not able to
perform labor himself and hired two
men by the year, paying them $50
per month and board, which made an
outlay for labor Of practically $1,000
or something over Sc per acre. This
same farm was carrying $4,000
mortgage at per cent. thus making
the cash outlay over IS per acre.
Thirty acres OF this farm was in grass
upon which twenty very ordinary
scrub animals pastured. The owner
possibly realized "a per acre on this
land, so that 81, 400 or thereabouts
must be raised from 100 acres In adj
dition to the ordinary living and run
ming expenses.
lowing to the unusually heavy
rainfall during the last two years this
land produced crops that were little
under the ordinary, the grain sold
not amounting to over 81 per acre.
