The Royal Road.

In recent travel letter, William
Allen White told of seeing Queen
WilheImina, of Holland. Hisdescrip-
ton was not one to fill with envy the
head that doesn't wear a crown, for
the one that does. A tired little wo-
man, triAe too fat, he described her.
and her palace didn't amount to
much and her husband to less in Kan
sas eyes. But do not fancy she is
alone in her grief. This king and
queen business isn't what it was.
Indeed, according to Mr.. Whites
description, Wilhelmina ought to be
the happiest of them all. She is a
good woman, which is rare enough
among royalty, and she suits her peo.
pie, which is rarer.
Glance about the mon arches of the
world, and you will observe you made
no mistake in not being born a king.

33,OOO,OOO Church Members

The census bureau has completed
its tabulations of. a church census
taken IN 1906, and its preliminary re-
ports include some interesting figures.
For instance, out of total popula-
ton of $4,000, 900 nearly 33, 900, 900 are
church members. This is much less
than half, but of course it takes no
count OF the many who are regular
church attendants and who believe
and practice Christian tenets, even
though they have not as yet become
communicates.
Classified by sex, the preponderance
of women members is very noticeable
--56.9 per cent against 1871 per cent
for the men. This difference is much
greater among Protestant churches. in
which only 1873 per cent are males
while in the Roman Catholic churches
males numbered 1913 per cent of the
total membership, or nearly one-half.
In sixteen states there are more
Catholics than Protestants. Of the
total church membership 36.7 per cent
is Catholic and GIG per cent
Protestant.
Fewer males were found among the
Latter-Day Saints (Mormons), the
Lutherans, Disciples, Methodists,
Baptists, Presbyterians and Protest
ant EDiSc0nalians tho noroon+on, ~
males decreasing in the order shown
until only 3d. per cent Of Episcopal
lians are males. Among the Chris
tian Scientists only 27.6 per cent are
males, and of the Shakers but 21.3
per cent. In the Greek Orthodox
church 93.9 per cent are males; this
being accounted for by the fact that
nearly all the Greek immigrants have

No Reversion to Barbarism.

Every once in a while some magis-
trate before whom a wife-beater is ar
raigned is moved, in his indigna alton,
to bewail the absence of law en-
powering him to order the offender
logged. In most cases, after the
woman. in her first fit Of resentment,
has caused her husband to be arrested,
she relents and tries to beg him off.
Sometimes she even takes some of
her hard-earned money, or pawns
some of her belongings, to pay the
fine of the wretch and secure his free
dom. In other cases, where the
woman is not in forgiving mood,
she reflects that her husband can earn
no money while he is in Jail, anu seeks
his release on the theory5that support
with occasional beatings is better
than no support and possible starva-
stion.
If the man could be subjected to the
quick punishment of the lash and then
ordered to go to work and take care
of his family and treat them kindly or
lay himself liable to another whipping,
it is argued that the corrective effect
would be much greater than the pre-
wailing mode of punishment.
Yet in Delaware, the only state that
retains the public whipping post, there
is dissatisfaction over its results.
Warden Messerve, Of the Newcastle
county workhouse, which is the only
penitentiary in the little state, re-
signed two years ago because he
would nc longer stand for a mode of
punishment which he deemed brutal.
He said: II have come to the con-
clusion that it is all bad. 1t brings
out in man all that is revengeful
and hurtful, and he arrays himself
against law, order and society,""
The practical experience and obser-
walton Of the warden naturally give
his opinion more weight than that Of
any mere theorist Time was when
all otfenses were punished much more

crimes were made capital Offenses,
and floggings and mutilations were
common.
Yet crimes were proportionately
more numerous and the percentage of
criminals greater than under the
anilder criminal code of this more
humane age. It is evident that we
snust be patient and depend upon
spiritual rather than brute force to

Why | Left the WOman's Club.

In these days of suffragist furore,
the story of former club. woman, told
in Woman's Home Companionfor Nov

This woman has taken prominent

of her convictions, because she was

ed by scenes that would have been
funny, if, to the earnest club woman,
they had not been so pathetic. AS one

that happened. | saw hysterical wo-

WHISKEY.

A Very Foolish Law.

Throughout the country bankers and
business men are taking a vigorous
stand in opposition to the law making
it misdemeanor to write check for
less than one dollar. This law, which
was framed and passed in practical OBJ
security is now part of the new Fed
eral code, and the consensus of opin-
ion is that such a ridiculous statute
does not speak we'll for congressional
intelligence. It would never have been
placed in the code had the business in
terests Of the country known that
such scheme was being patched, but
it was slipped in promises to make a
great deal of trouble. The law it is
said, does not serve any good purpose
nor does it protect anybody. On the
contrary. the contention of the bank
ing and business interests is that a
man has as much right to draw a
check for so cents as for half million
dollars, provided he has the money in
the bank to make the check good. But
Congress has made it a crime, hence
any citizen who is not aware that
such an sbSured law Is on the statute
books am raws his check for less than
a dollar will find himself criminal. -
