Race suicide seems to be fact
though understanding to the last
report of the Massachusetts state bu
reau of labor. Considering only mar
ried women and widows and di
vorced women, seven centers of popu
lation contained May 1, 1905, 46,02l
mothers. Of whom 19,47S were native
born They had 1884 children, while
1854 foreign-born mothers had 128,
20S children. The native-born had ar
average of 2.77 children. while theiI
foreign-born mothers had an average
OF SAT children, or 81 per cent. more
than their daughters in this country
The foreign-born mothers here had
an average Of 4.S3 children, while
their mothers in Europe had an aver
age Of 7.75. The Boston Traveller
thinks that It does not take a math
ematician to see what this state OF
things will in time leave the popula
ton of Massachusetts.

The Christmas turkey trade is on
In earnest. Local dealers announced
they would pay IL cents Monday,
and the result vas q big rush. The
wagons began to stream into town

and teams. Something more than

amount paid out was over IS, 900.
Many a good housewife got her

The American Drummer

A United States consul sends to the
state department a bit of advice for
American business houses that intend
seeking trade in Spanish-American
countries. Cheap travelling sales
men who can pick up orders in a
brisk and breezy fashion," he de.
clares, will not be able to do much
business there. Statesmen of culture
and education. with polished manners
and knowledge of the languages and
customs of the people among whom
they go, he believes to be essential
The consul's intentions are good,
and II is easy to see the point he
seeks to make. American business
houses would doubtless do well to
remember his words of caution. But
he has a wrong conception of the
American travelling salesman. The
type he has in mind figures more
largely on the stage and in the books
Of fiction than on the road. The roy.
STEERING, fiashy "spellbinding" drum
mer has practically disappeared, The
knights of the grip, while they may
not be composite Lord Chesterfields
and ]. Pierpont Morgans, are quiet,
level-headed, capable men of business,
They seek. says the Cleveland Leader,
to obtain and hold trade by a thorough
knowledge of the branch of it they are
In and by deserving the confidence of
the men they deal with. The com
mercial traveller OF to-day does not re-
sort to tricks. lie transacts business
on a business basis, and succeeds on
his merits. Such accomplished gen
tlemen as are described by the consul
would doubtless have an immense ad
vantage over their less gifted brethren
In Latin-America, but the supply OF
them is bound to be limited, 1t is a
safe prediction that the plain, ordi
nary American travelling men will get
their full share Of the business In
Mexico and Central and South Amer
lea.

The difficulty of bestowing charity
wisely has long been recognized. In
time philanthropy may be recognized
as q science, worthy the careful at
tention of the most profound eco
homie thinkers. The good natured
hitor-miss method OF public donation
hitherto followed must in time be
largely replaced by a more intelligent
