Why Not Spread a Net for Ravenous
Loan Sharks?

Various Denver philanthropists
are discussing ways and means
ot making the approaching
Christmas a blessed one tor all
Gods poor within the city's gates.
If they are truly in earnest. if
they really wish to do something
tor the struggling toilers of Den
yer that will not flicker ou: with
the Christmas candles. why not
cast a net, cable-strong, for the
loan sharks7"
They are ravenous creatures
and they feed mercilessly on the
poor mans weekly income
Here is story that came to the
notice of the Times only yester-
day: A Denver bookkeeper. earn

three young children His wife
was i'll for long time two years
ago. and to give her the care and
comforts she needed he put S97

five-room. cottage, receiving $50
after the various tees had been
deducted. For two years now he
has been paying S4.So every
month interest on that mortgage,
Sl06.40 in all.
Last year, when his third child
was born, and things were going
badly. he secured a salary loan.
for which he is paying 10 per
cent. a month. One-hfth of his
earnings. scanty at best, now goes
to the loan sharks in interest.
As for the principle-there seems
to be no earthly way by which he
can ever hope to pay that, though
he seizes eagerly on any odd jobs
that comes his way, balancing
books in the evening. earning a
little extra money here. saving
the pennies while all the
time his affairs are getting more
hopelessly entangled. He and
his wife are dreading Christmas

A compendium of statistics on
marriage and divorce has recently
been issued by the bureau of the
census department of commerce
and labor. The statistics are the
result OF careful gathering of
figures in every state in the union
the period covered being from
1887 to 1906 The last set of ma
tional statistics on marriage and
divorce covered the period from
1867 to 1886. The present set of
statistics. taken in conjunction
with the former one, therefore,
gives view of the marriage and
divorce question for the past
forty years. The three important
facts brought out in this eompen-
dium are: One marriage out OF
every twelve in the United States
terminates in the divorce court.
Divorce is two and one-half times
as common in this country as it
was forty years ago. Illinois
grants more divorces than any
other state in the union.
