Municipal Child-ReaIing.
From Harper's Weekly.


The town OF Huddersfeld. England which
stands In the front rank of the cities that
have adopted the plan of public utilities
owned and controlled by the municipal
authorities has recently taken a further
STEP and provided for child-rearing under
official direction. Realizing that a large
part of the death rate among the poor
was of infants under one year of age, ow-
ing to insufficient or unintelligent care and
nourishment. the mayor of the city offered
a bonus of 81 to every child born ir one
of the districts that should attain the age
of twelve months This offer. which is to
hold good during the term of the present
incumbent's mayoralty led the local health
authorities to consider whether steps could
not be taken toward saving the lives of
infants.
Accordingly they decided to offer a re-
ward of one shilling to the first person
who should inform the medical officer of
the birth of child within forty-eight
hours of its occurrence. The mother is
then to be visited by physicians and Wo-
men health visitors. who will instruct her
as to the best methods of feeding washing
and clothing the child, while, in addition,
detailed instructions are to be prepa red
and printed for general distribution.
The health visitors will also examine the
homes of the mothers and factories and
other places where women are employed.
and cases where deaths of children under
one year have occurred will be nvestiga ted.
furthermore, years experiment will be
undertaken with a day nursery. where chill
dren can be cared for and sterilized milk
Will be supplied for the babies Hudders-
field is a manufacturing town, and the
authorities consider that its present
strength can best be preserved through
maintaining Its native labor. They, there
fore, believe that If the infant mortality
Is reduced to minimum a large ma iority
Of children would grow to manhood and
womanhood. The experiment is interesting.

Our Rivals In Wheat Trade.

From the New York Evening Post
The fact that our exports of wheat and
hour combined. for the fiscal year just
closed, are the smallest since 1872. and that
exports of wheat In grain alone are the
smallest In over forty years, draws atten-
tion again to our place in the grain export
trade. The latest report at hand from the
British board of trade gives further evil
dence of the extent to which other wheat
exporting nations have outstripped the
United States. In May, 1902 Great Bril-
tain's wheat and flour imports were as
follows. in order of Importance quantities
being given in hundred weights of approx
mately two bushels each; United States,
6.OI3,O0O; Argentine Republic, 1000 600;
Canada. 61I, 600; Australasia. COL 900; Rus
STA, 349, 600: India, 100000. Last month the
order of precedence was: Argentine Repub-
lie. 900; Russia, 100000: India, / .215.-
600; Australasia, 1902, 600; United States,
81, coo: Canada, $4,000.
The striking fact of the returns again Is
that, despite the virtual disappearance OF
the United States from the list, the total
May import of wheat and -four by Great
Britain was nearly as great as in 1902.
Last month it was $500. 000 hundredweight;
in May. 1902. it was 8. $4,000. Figures for
the five months ending May 81, in 1902,
showed the United States leading with %,
600 600 hundredweight. its nearest competi-
tor being the Argentine with 2,691 600. The
same FIVE months in 1905 gave footing of
4 800 600; the Argentine leading with II, 81,
600 and India and Russia much more than
doubling our record of 1905, or their own
of 1902.

A Financial Pointer From Canada.
From the Montreal Gazette.

from the Nontreat Gazette.
Failures of financial firms and corpora
lions in the United States are becoming
frequent enough to cause comment. The
causes are sometimes due to speculation
by officials and directors. AMI sometimes
to investments which had no sound COM
merciaI Justification. 1t is the latter which.
from q business point of view, are most
serious. Men have been induced to enter
upon extensive schemes depending on pub
lie patronage for support which the con-
dtiOns did not justify. The ventures did
not earn what was expected, their securi-
ties fell In value and the concerns which
held them found themselves bankrupt. In
situations from which they had borrowed
also stand to lose. and the unfortunate re-
suits may be somewhat widespread. The
continent has had SO long a period of BUSH
ness expansion that 1t Is not to be won
dered at that there have been investments
in Improbable enterprises. and that those
whose hopefulness was stronger than their
prudence are meeting with losses.

An Orig. nal Fish Story.
From the Yorkshire Post

DR.. G. v. A. Robertson Of Pickering re-
ports: "On Saturday 1 received a call to
visit the son Of a farmer. The message
was: The lad has been bitten by a fish.
On my arrival I found the lad suffering
from severe wound of the right foot,
which required several stitches. On maxi
ing inquiries / was told that the lad had
been bathing along with two others in the
River Leven. which runs near to the farm
at Sinnington, and on getting out of the
water he sat on the bank as lads are wont
to do, when suddenly large fish jumped
out of the water on to the bank seized the
lad by the foot and jumped in again The
distance from the water to the edge of the
bank was quite two feet. and the lads foot
was three feet from the edge of the bank.
A lady who was passing and heard his cries
went to his assistance and carried him
home. as the foot was bleeding profusely
gentleman who stays at the farm and is
an enthusiastic angler asked to be shown
the place, and said he would try to catch
the fish, On taking his fishing tackle he
had the qualification of catching the fish
in a few minutes with an artificial bait. 1t
turned out to be a fine pike. measuring two
feet one and one-half inches long. and
weighing six pounds. There can be no
doubt" adds the doctor. "as to the truth
of the occurrence, for l not only saw the
lad and the fish. but 1 also saw the fish
measured and the gentleman who caught
It,"

RECEIvERsHIP DISSOLVED.
Action Taken in Case Of Peoples
United States Bank.

ST. LOUIS. Mo-, July lion motion of
the attorneys for the Peoples United
States Bank. capitalized at s. 500 900, Judge
McElhinney of the St Louis county circuit
court today dissolved the receivership for
that institution and discharged Receiver
Selden p. Spencer, appointed by him sew
eral days ago on the request of Secretary
of State Swanger of Missouri.
Judge McElhinney's action was based on
the ground that Secretary of State Swanger
failed to make a personal investigation of
the affairs of the bank before making ap-
plication for a receiver. The court stated
that the receiver had been appointed on
representations which. 1t had developed,
were based by Secretary of State Swanger
on his impression of the conditions prevail
ing at the bank and its method of conduct
ing It's business, and not on facts secured
by a thorough investigation.

GOING TO EUROPE?

Like the famous recipe for cooking a hare, it is first in order before going to Europe to secure your steamship reservations, for while each year new ocean leviathans" are put into com mission. the ever increasing number of those who go abroad takes up the best rooms long in advance of sailing date. When staterooms are carefully se- lected there is never any deposit for feited if one has to give up their cher Ished plans. for in the season there is always long waiting list and good res, ervations are easily resold.
 This year in particular the indica- tions are that there will be an unprece- dented exodus to Europe, and those who are thinking of going across and have not yet booked passage should en- gage the same without further delay. We particularly recommend our read CTS to call on Messrs. Sweezey and
