This change in social attitude toward
age truly reflects, as is widely recogniz-
ed. the changed actual attitude, the atti-
tude of encouragement to continued &C
tivity in business, professional or politi-
cal effort, regardless of conventional
limit. That such change contributes
greatly to the promotion of individual
happiness in the aggregate, however it
may handicap race-efficiency in an in

RELIGIONS PLEASANT WAYS.

1t is not religion, but the lack of it,
that makes people unhappy. Yet, how
strangely and how widely the opposite
view prevails. There are many who
think of religion not only as a CALLING
drudgery, but as he surest source of
moroseness, melancholy. and unhappi-
ness of life. Their idea is that religion
is a system of suffering to which many
people are willing to submit here i'm
order that they may not suffer hereafter

WORKMEN WILL
GALL OFF THE
STRIKE TONIGHT

st. Petersburg, Aug $3.50 p. m.-Thc
workmen's council has decided 10 call
on the strike In ST. Petersburg. The an
nouncement will be issued tonight or to-
morrow This action does not apply 10
the provinces. but there is little doubt
that the workmen there will follow ST.
Petersburgs example.
More than half the factories OF ST. Pc
tersburg resumed work today and while
some men at Moscow are still out none
OF the predictions OF the more radical
strike leaders were fulfilled. The railroad
men, whose cooperation was vital, could
not be induced TO give the signal for
strike, fearing that majority OF the men
would not obey. and there was no sign
OF a serious peasant movement
IL is apparent that the moment was Ill
chosen for a strike. AS a consequence
the revolutionary leaders who hoped 20
transform the movement into an armed
uprising. have suffered a severe loss OF
prestige and the proletariat organizations
have been so weakened in the eyes OF the
masses that IL is probable that they will
not quickly recover from II.
The government, which had prepared
for the worst naturally is greatly re-
joiced at its victory. only a possibly
more active state OF terrorism is expected
I'm the immediate future. The leaders OF
the non-revolutionary parties are pleased
as they feared that a great strike might
be used as n justification by the govern
ment to postpone the election and the as
sembling OF a new parliament.
With comparative tranquility ahead,
they can hold the government TO its prom
ises and the Constitutional Democrats
hope 10 regain the prestige which they
lost during the sessioE. of parliament
while the new party OF peaceful regener-
alton is hopeful OF n general reaction
from radicalism with which TO create
healthier state of public opinion. Pre-
mier Stolypin, with his hands free. 1t Is

INSPECTOR WILL
MAKE TOUR OF
MILK FARMS

Inspector OF Milk Walter o. Scott.
will soon make tour OF inspection OF
all farms throughout the state from
which the local milk dealers obtain
their milk supply.
Some local dealers have told Supt
Scott that the farmers from whom they
get their milk do not ice II enough
and. in speaking OF the matter this
morning Mr.. Scott said:
GOOD clean milk should not con-
tain over 100000 bacteria In each cubic
centemeter. To insure that the milk
shall conform TO this requirement both
cleanliness and proper cooling OF the
milk are required at every stage OF
it's handling.

and strainers. absence of dust In the
air TO which the milk Is exposed, rapid
cooling and continuous maintenance
thereafter. at temperature below 80
degrees, there need be no failures In
meeting the 100000 standard"
Inspector Scott said that there Is
simple way I'm which the dealers may
daily test the milk received from the
farmers,
He advises that they take a milk
can and knock the bottom from II.
Then covering up this hole with alb
orbent cotton and using the cotton as
a strainer and the can as funnell.
the dealers may pour two canfuls or
milk through IL.
IL there Is any dirt in the milk II
will be plainly shown on the cotton.
and when the dealer complains TO the
farmer he can send the dirty cotton TO
him as evidence.
The warm weather has materially
affected the milk. as the ice melts so
rapidly. Mr. Scott, however, said to-
day that he had not received any COM
paints about sour milk.
The Babcock machine which In
spector Scott uses in his ONCE for test
ing milk, was broken yesterday af-
ternoon; and IL was not in working
order again until 2:3o this afternoon.
