and she narrated an incident that had
once befallen her friend, Charles Dick
ems
"Dickens. looking for local color for
his novel of Hard Times, visited
Manchester. He went through the
novels of certain Manchester cotton
spinners. and these foul houses filed
him with r.ty and horror.
Meeting the Manchester manufac-
turer who owned them. he said:
And do your employees really live
in such houses as these?'
Certainly not the manufacturer
replied. They only sleep in them.
They live in my MILL" .

SUICIDES INCREASE.

There were less than third as
many lynchings last year as there
were fourteen years ago. From the
2S5 mob murders in 1892 to the az
of 1906 is certainly an encouraging
advance
There is another encouraging fea.
ture to the lynching record for last
year. There We're no burninss at the
stake.
The record is not vet anything TO
brag about But there is this to be
proud of-the efforts for law and or.
der was steadily growing stronger
and the public condemnation OF all
men who keep aflame the passions
of the mob is rapidly increasing.
Murder, too. is declining in this
country, measured by increase OF
population There were $3.50 last
)year, against 9,212 the year before
a slight increase in number but a
proportional decline
While lynchings and homicides
have declined, suicides have in.
creased. In the year there were
more than 10000 suicides.
AS yet the suicide rate in the
United States does not equal the rate
in France, Germany or Austria. Our
homicide rate still far exceeds that
of England or the principal cont.
rental countries.
In the lynching neighborhoods
there are few suicides. Mississippi
leads the states in lynchings and has
almost no suicides.
Also suicides We're rarest in the
sections where there were the most
homicides

no one has found way Of influencing
such a large mass of people in So
short at ime without the use OF ex
aggeration to at least as great an ex-
| tent as the manufacturers of the fancy
| cereals. A certain degree of graft.
tude is accordingly due them. since
they have thus contributed to the we:-
fare OF the people by the sacrifice of
their personal yeracity.
We have spoken Of this dietary rev
oiution as though it were merely a
| change of belief, like the decrease in
the republican vote during the same
period. 1t is not so much that the
new foods are better than the old as
that people have been persuaded TO
eat them. After all, no cereal food
has been invented that is more nutri-
| tlous digestible and cheap than white
bread made from fine patent flour.
| Ihls is not matter of individual
opinion, but is proved by the exten
slve and thorough experiments and
ANALYSIS made by the department of
agriculture and the state experime..t
stations. For example, let us quote
the figures showing what percentage
OF the protein contained in different
forms of cereals is digested. since pro-
teln, which includes all the nitrope-
nous matter, is the most valuable of
the components of food: -

1t will be seen from this table that
the retention of the bran and germ.
wholly or in part, as is done in the
graham and entire-wheat -four and in
the undecorticated breakfast fooo
really reduces the amount of avail
able protein, although the chemical
analysis Of such products show
higher percentage of protein than the
patent -four. II, then, a man likes
oldfashioned bread and milk or
crackers and milk better than any
new-fangled notions he can eat It with
good conscience regardless OF The
fact that beside the plates of the other
members Of the family stand pack
ages OF Foodine, expnrgated Wheat
and Bath Mitts.
/ In short all of the prepared cereal
foods are good enough for anybody
and there is not such great difference
between them as their advertising
and their price would Indicate. The
cereals that cost three or FIVE cents
pound are. il properly cooked, as nu-
tritious as those that cost 12k or is
cents. The frugal housewife MAJ

RELIGION FOR
ALL PUPILS
Presbyterian Synod Advocates Public
School Instruc.
ton.

Spokane, Oct. 8.-The annual sy-
nod of the Presbyterian church of
Washington by a. unanimous vote
has declared in favor of devoting a
few hours each week to the religious
instruction of pupils in the public
schools. To secure this, the synod
would have the pupils of the public
schools dismissed every Wednesday
at noon and the afternoon devoted
to religious instruction the pupils
in their own churches.
A movement to give all public
school children "a course in religious
instruction was lately ;nauguratel
iby the international church fedora
ton and the resolution adopted by
the Washington synod was an in
dorsement of the plan of the inter-
national federation.
Protection of Sabbath.
The synod also declared in favor
of the protection of the American
Sabbath, and in a resolution unani-
mously adopted, called upon the au-
thorities of the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific
exposition to close the exposition
grounds on Sunday.
The resolution is as follows:
I'VE trust that the exposition will
declare emphatically and early the.
the gates of the exposition shall re-
main closed on the Sabbath.
I'VE believe that the American
Christian Sabbath is the bulwark of
american manhood and liberty We
.,ei;eve that especially on the Pacific
coast there is great need OF our citi
zens taking high ground in support
of this institution. We believe that
this acton would not only meet the
approval Of large body of our best
citizens, but would also secure to the
exposition the hearty cooperation
|of our Christian and churca reople. .
