4 BLAST AT THE RICH
George Bernard Shaw Would Guillotine Wealthy Idle Classes.
IMPEACHMENT OF IoNDoNsooIE

 Headsman For All Who Cannot
 Earn an Income-PrOposes Com
 mission Before which Every Man
 Must Appear and Prove He Is a
 Capable Member of Society.
 George Bernard Shaw, the English socialist, playwright, novelist, econo- mist and borough councillor, recently delivered a speech in Sloane square, the heart Sof fashi6Ra Ble' ?. .6tSdoR, aafd, savagely attacked the wealthy idle classes, says special cable dispatch to the New York American and Jour nal. In his arraignment, which has created a decided sensation, he said:
 ''The only remedy for social evils is the crude, simple one of equality. Some people argue that it is impossi- ble for men to be equal, because they are neither mentally nor physically equal. Such people should not be ar gued with. They ought to be buried. That is the way to treat people who think that mental and physical equal ity is the same thing as legal, political a1d economical equality.
 i've are too squeamish about killing. There is an immense number of peo- pie living in Mayfair who ought to be guillotined. There ought to be a board like the income tax, commissioners be-. fore which the rich ought to be com pelled to appear and prove that they have earned their incomes. If it can be proved that anybody takes money he doesn't earn he ought to be guillo- tined.
 ''The burglar frequently obtains his loot by as proper means as the peo- pie for whom he steals obtain their wealth. Moreover, the burglar is brave and clever. He possesses qualities which have made England famous. The thing to do is to establish a min imum income and compel everybody to work for 1t. That minimum income should be sufficient to make man a decent member of society. Once that was established it would be right to regard as a criminal any man who proved he could not be decent mem- Der of society. If anybody wanted an uCOulS dDUF0 tue uAGQ u14ILlIuuul LuGFS would be no harm in his saving it provided he worked therefor.
 "A minimum income is the thing, and I believe it will play great part in the economic movement of the fu- ture."
 At the other end of the social scale Mayor Crooks of Poplar. London's most squalid borough, now in the depths of Restitution, arraigns the tyranny of landlords. Mayor Crooks suggests a novel cure for the rapacity of land 7 lords. He says:
 we must have court of fair rent in east London, and the sooner it comes the better for the peace of the city. Rapacious landlords are destroying the workingmen.
 "Can sell my coat two years after it's purchase for more than I paid for it? Then why should the landlord in- crease yearly his rent for property for which he charged a fair rent in the first instance? Rapacious landlordism can be stopped if parliament wants to stop it. These constantly increasing rents on workmen's dwellings discour age thrift and encourage fatalism,"' 's.

A Well
Developed
Form


A good set of muscles is one of the
most excellent qualifications which any
person can possess. There is no posi-
ton in life for which they unfit one, and
there is none which they will not enable
one to fill to better advantage than he
otherwise could do. There are thous-
and and one emergencies in life in which
strong, vigorous, and well-trained mus
Giles are of enormous service, and in
which their use may be of incalcuable
value. Proper physical culture gives,
not only increased physical strength, but
greater dexterity, suppleness, and grace
of movement. The person who walks
with shuffling, swaying, and awkward
gait, does so, not on account of any
original defect in his physical makeup,
but through the weakness of certain
muscles which, by disuse, have become
unable to do their part in the act of
walking, and so render him unable to
perform it in an easy and graceful man.
