early on Sunday morning she heard
loud means that might have come from
the Wanstall house. as they were very
distinct and indicated that somebody
was in great distress, but Miss Mel
vile says she heard no noise ON Sat
urday night or Sunday morning, al
though she slept in the house. She
said she slept very soundly.
None of Mrs. Wanstall's friends ever
knew Of her using medicines of any
kind other than the headache cures
prescribed by her physicians. and say
she was of very regular habits of Nv

Every modern civilized nation has many
and terrible problems to solve within its
own borders. problems that arise not
merely from juxtaposition of poverty and
riches, but especially from the self-con-
seriousness of both poverty and riches.
Each nation must deal with these mat
ters in its own fashion. and yet the spirit
in which the problem is approached must
ever be fundamentally the same. 1t
must be a spirit of broad humanity; of
brotherly kindness: of acceptance of re-
sponsibility. one for each and each for
all: and at the same time a spirit as re-
mote as the poSes from every form Of
weakness and ssntimentality. As in war
to pardon the coward is to do cruel
wrong to the brave man whose life his
cowardice jeopardizes. so In civil affairs
It is revolving to every principle of
