A Slight Error.

From the New York Times.
 One male stenographer is not very happy just now. His wife asked him to put in an advertisement for a maid. He consented, but absently, his mind on bus mess, and only remembered his errand at the moment before setting out for his home.
 He wrote and mailed the ad. making only one slight mistake. He offered $15 per week instead of per month
 The next morning at o'clock the front doorbell rang.
 See who that is," said tho wife dream fly. He saw Two Swedish maidens, one rosy German girl, sonsie Scottish lass, a demure Englishwoman past her first youth, a number of females, age, appear ance manners, accent all offering rich variety, clamored for the privilege of serving in his $45 flat!
 You had better get up. I didn't know times were so hard as this, poor things,
 he remarked to his wife.
 She rose and interviewed the various nationalities in a kimono Her hus- band dressed hastily, with visions of ar extra good breakfast floating in the ail before him.
 (Which did you take? he asked eagerly as his wife returned. These pages must not record the Ian e,lage before which stricken man fled dropping in at restaurant for roll and coffee He entered his office and worded another ad, a sadder man at any rate.

| respectfully recommend the repeal Of
Section OF Chapter 143 of the Re-
vised Statute, as amended by Chapter
20 of the Public Laws of 1907.
Under the existing laws all commit

many cases where / believe q civil pro-

who would be sent to the State school.
It seems unnecessarily harsh to arrest
them by the police, drag them before a
court of criminal jurisdiction to answer
TO a criminal charge, and after a trial
conducted in accordance with the
'ormS of criminal law to order their
commitment by criminal process to the
State school. when the same might be
secured as expeditiously and more
simply by civil procedure.
IN many of these cases I believe it
would be better to commit the lad
simply as a Juvenile delinquent" need
ing educational training. rather than
rs a criminal convicted Of specific
violation of law. Such method of COM
mitment would tend to preserve the
self-respect of the boy and his family.
to give him at the very outset more
favorable impression Of the school and
it's methods, aims and purposes. and
to place him in a state of mind more
favorable for his moral improvement.
Furthermore ] believe the parents and
friends of the boys 50 committed would
appreciate this kindly consideration Of
their feelings and would cooperate
more cordially with the authorities Of
the school"
