The Man In the Home.

Some Newark men whose wives go
q great deal to women's clubs are
preparing a memorial. They will ask
the ladies to adopt the fashion Of long
apron strings again. Most aprons
nowadays, they report, are made with
short strings that reach barely around
the owners waists and are pinned to-
gether. When man tries to put on
one of these aprons, they say; he has
to tuck 1t into the top of his trousers
or twine It around his suspenders, both
arrangements being uncertain and I'M.
satisfactory. The gentlemen of the
committee pray that apron strings be
made long enough to go around q
mans waist and be tied.-Newark

ton death rate of less than 10; the
physicians with II, the merchants
with 1G, the teachers with IA, the
druggists with u, and the bank
ers, brokers and officers of COM
panies, whose death rate from con-
sumption is but 8 in the thousand.
Viewed from the economic stand
point alone this is a pretty heavy
toll which these trades are paying
for L disease that is now conceded
to be preventahle and which, taken
in the early stages, is easily cur.
able.
Professor Fisher of Yale Uni
versity, places the cost or money
loss of Il death from consumption
at $4,000. This includes the
capitalized earning capacity OF the
Individual, loss Of wages, cost of
sickness and funeral expenses.
From the few figures here given
any one can easily make some
simple computation that will show
what consumption is costing wage
earners.
Surely, with these figurers be-
fore us, the wage earners of the
country should become active and
aggressive interested in the fight
that is now being made to stamp
out consumption. The one i'm
portant factor in the waging of
this fight is education.
The people must learn how to
do and what to do, that is. how to
live in such 4 way as to prevent
consumption. They must learn
the Importance. the absolute
necessity of the earliest possible
diagnosis of cases of suspected con-
sumption.
This means that cases of this kind
can be cured and easily cured
People must learn the value of
fresh air and sunlight, and insist
upon having it ut all times and
under all circumstances.
The figures given mean much
and it is to be hoped that within
another decade simila chart can
be made to show entire different
rules.

STARVING
Poor Woman Stole Bottle of Milk
for Three Days Old Baby and
Other Little Ones.

Crying piteously and begging for
mercy, Mrs. Eva Jcf1eries, young
woman of 30 years, was arranged
before Magistrate Toughill in
Philadelphia recently, charged
with stealing bottle of milk from
u door step.
Just before daybreak Policeman
Barker saw a poorly dressed
woman. shivering from the intense
cold, pick up bottle of milk and
endeavor to hide it in an old
tattered shaul. He placed the
woman under arrest.
When asked by the magistrate
to tell her story, the woman hroke
down completely. She told the
court OF new baby at home which
only arrived three days ago, and
three other children, the oldest of
whom was but four years. who
were crying for something to eat
''Oh, judge, / did not like to
do this said the broken hearted
woman, sbut | could not stand the
cry of my children for food much
longer. My husband Is a machin-
ist i'll the navy yard, but has not
had IA stroke of work for six weeks
He was too i'll this morning to 90
out, or he would not have let me do
this.
We have had to pawn every
piece of clothing we possessed to
feed our children. and now that
we have nothing left. | was forced
to steal. Please won't you forgive
me, just this time
Tears were in the eyes of the
magistrate by this time. He
wasted no time in taking from his
wallet something which looked
very much like a five dollar bill.
and passed it to Mrs. .TefferieS
BY this time the court attendants
were paSsining the hat. and when
it was brought back it contained
