2. That the board of charities

shall Inspect the wor-. of all agencies
which care for dependent children,
whether institutional or by home find
ing methods and whether supported

has always jealousy guarded the in

been able to leave them property by
requiring the appointment OF guar
dian. under bbond, accountable direct
ly to the courts, even though there
be a competent surviving parent. Sure
ly the interests of the child who is
not only an orphan but penniless ought
to be no less sacred than those OF the
more fortunate orphan who inherits
property. If the protection of the gov
ernment is necessary in the one case
ii is even more necessary in the other.
If we are to require that only incor-
porated institutions shall be allowed
to engage in this responsible work, 1t
is necessary to provide for public in

the unconscious partner of those who
either from ignorance or inefficiency
are unsuited to deal with the problem

Chimney Money.

One bygone tax that Mr.. Lloyd
George is not likely to revive is Chin
ney money" Pepys records on March
3, 1862, that "on this day the paf!ia-
ment hath voted two shillings per an
mum for every chimney in England, as
a constant revenue forever to the
crown" But it was desperately unpop-
ular from the first, says the London
Chronicle At the end of June, 1862,
Much clamor against the chimney
money; and the people say they will
not pay it without force" 1t was not
until October. 1865, however, that it
was successfully moved that the
chimney money might be taken from
the king, and an equal revenue Of
something else might be found for the
king, and people be enjoined to buy off
this tax of chimney money forever at
eight years purchase, which will raise
present money, as they think, e1,600-
900, and the state be eased of an i'll
burden and the king be supplied of
something as good or better for his
use"

of man that a soldier camp-follower,

is for having his admirers; even

who write against it, yet desire the

who read, desire the glory Of having
read; l who write this way have this
desire, and perhaps those who will
read it.--Pascal.
