Old Age Pension.
GOOD Housekeeping.l


points out the fact that the best eff
forts of friendly associations and
societies, even with the help of the
life insurance companies, must fall
far short of even the money needed
for losses through death or disease.
and in the same article suggests a
source from which a pension for the
aged may be provided. He says, in
some states, the poll tax will do it;
the poll tax every man has been pay
ing to the state since his majority
endows him with the right to return
support from the state in the ex-
tremity OF declining years, and will
supply the money to meet the claim.
The suggestion of old age pensions
which he has persistently broached
to the greatest of all "Lend-a- Hand"
clubs, the states, we may be sure
will not cease knocking at the door
of public sympathy until the door is
opened. Christendom began by
opening its arms to the children, and
its heart is turning tenderly, in these
ripper years. to the sufferings of des-
titute old people, who are certrinly
in some ways nearer the kingdom Of
heaven than are the children-as, for
instance, inpoint of time. 1t
is interesting to read of the work
being done in countries where the
old-age pension is now being carried.
Premier Seddon and other support
ers of the law, says: ut encourages
a man to save, to know that the state
will add something to his little ac-
emulation: instead Of the despair
which sees no use in self help, comes
hope and a new energy" Moreover,
these innovators of New England are
not afraid to question whether, from
any true point Of social regard, it is
thrift for a poor man, WhOsa earn
ings are really not enough for his
children's needs, to save money
which has to be skimped somehow
out of their bodies and minds or
souls. There are two ways OF IN
ducing the people to be thrifty"
says Mr.. Reeves; you may encour-
age them with the hope attaining to
comfort; or you may frighten them
with the alternative CT destitution.
| attach more value to the efficacy Jf
hope" The report says that, thanks
to the old-age pension, the aged
tramp has disappeared from the
highways of New Zealand. The
idea is to prevent pauperism and en-
courage thrift by adding to the say
ings of the poor enoagh to keep
them out of the pauper class. One
need not be saint nor pauper in
order to get relief; one may have
property valued at $3.50, or en in
come of $40 a year, and still receive
the full allowance of 800 year-an
English shilling a day. The idea is
to prevent pauperism and encourage
thrift. For those who have more
property or more income, the allow
ance by the state is decreased pro-
portionately until it disappears.
Thus, to those who have $3.50 Of in
come, or $1,000 worth CT prop
erty, no pension is allowed
Those who are criminals are barred;
but not those who have been Grim
inals; one may hove committed the
most heinous of crimes, if it happen
ed twenty-five years ago, and still
be forgiven, and a serious misde-
meanor of twelve years since will be
overlooked. Minor matters, like
of more than five years
ago, are passed by.

Clean Up.

The time of year is here when all persons
should make thorough cleaning up oflots,
celers and streets. All decayed vegetable
matter should be carefully removed from
cellars, the walls whitewashed and lime
sprinkled on floor, water should not be per.
mitted to remain in cellars Tin cans are
often thrown out promiscuously, very fre-
quently not washed after the vegetables
are removed, water gets into them, bacteria
or diseased germs accumulate. Swarms of
flies congregate in and these cans and carry
disease and filth, right into house on din
ing tables and into the victuas you daily
eat. These cans should all be picked up
and taken to the dump where they will be
burnt thus destroying the diseased germs,
Loose paper should not be thrown on lots
or streets. The Health Officers duty is TO
report all places not thoroughly cleaned up
and it is hoped every householder will see
that cellars and back yards as well as front
yards will not have TO be reported by the
Health Officer, who will soon visit all
pre- nises. Board of Health.

New M. E. Church for Tionesta.

The Methodist Episcopal congregation
of Tionesta will have new church edifice
before another year rolls around. This
much was settled at meeting held a few
days ago by parties who are not given to
much talk, hut are in the habit of doing
things when once arriving at a decision.
The new edifice will be one of the sub
stantial kind, likely of brown stone, and
of sufficient dimensions TO supply the
needs of the congregation for many years
to come, perhaps for all time. 1t will be
located on the Bonner lot, which the
church organization has owned for the
past three years, and which was pur-
chased with this end in view. The men
who have taken up this work, and who
will carry it through to completion are II.
d. Collins, George F. Watson and f. y
Kreitler, who, in spite of the fact that
they have made extensive investments in
western properties and have large inter.
ests demanding their attention, have de-
termined to make this sacrifice at this
time, because of the pressing need of a
new house of worship, and because they
feel it their duty under the circumstances.
The active work will begin as soon as
plans and architectural designs can be
completed which are now under consider
alton.
