POOR PocKETLEss MAN.

TO the average man with fifteen
pockets to his credit it seems incred-
dble that there is a male being in the
world without pockets, but such is the
case.
The Kansas City police force dis
covered one, and he was such curios-
ity that they held him on suspicion
after finding he didn't have pocket to
keep his car fare in, to say nothing of
his keys, his penknlfe. his purse, his
toothpicks. his matches, cigars, love
letters stamps, handkerchief, lead PEN
ellis and fountain pen.
Dionysius Devarius is the unfortu-

Missouri policemen. He belongs to the
Duncan troupe of Grecian highbrows
who dress in spotless white robes-and
are endeavoring to carry America back
to the fashions of Alcibiades and The.
mistocles and Socrates.
Wandering without keeper in the
Kansas City streets, Dionysius ran into
an inquisitive cop. The officer landed
him in butterfly net and hauled him
over the rough cobble stones in a hurry
wagon to headquarters.
The instructions as soon as the Greek
landed in the station were, Search
him. Dionysius protested in purest
Hellenic. Unfortunately most of the
Irish policemen in Kansas City were
not educated in the shadow Of the
Acropolis--so they couldn't understand
what he was talking about.
Broad hands fumbied through the
folds of his snow white garb in vain
AT last, in sheer disgust, the searchers
declared:
He amt got a single pocket"
That settled Dionysius' case. He was
Immediately locked up and he stayed
behind the bars till the rest OF ths
troupe appeared with an English

SLAUGHTER HOUSE REFUSE

The feeding of slaughter house refuse
to hogs has been quite a common prac-
tice. The following discussion of it is
given in special bulletin 20 just issued
by the food department of the North
Dakota Agricultural college, No COM
ment is necessary, it is self explanatory
and If the buyer had his choice be-
tween pork fed slaughter house refuse
and that which had not it is not hard
to tell which he would choose.
The question is asked whether or
not 1t is permissible, under the Sani-
tary Inspection Law and the Food Law
of the state, to feed slaughter house
refuse to hogs in and about the slaugh-
ter house. This may be considered a
question which must be determined by
the courts in accordance with the evil
dence submitted in the particular case.
But on general principles the depart
ment believes that the feeding of
slaughter house waste to hogs should
be discouraged, and that the same is
to be classed in violation of the spir-
it, If not of the exact words, of both
Food and Sanitary Inspection laws, un-
less the products are first cooked and
fed while in good condition.
BY the feeding of slaughter house
waste to a flock Of growing pigs and
hogs there is great likelihood of intro
ducing tuberculosis, as it is a we'll
known fact that the intestines, as we'll
as other internal organs, are to a con-
siderable extent affected and the eat
ing of these parts is liable to render
the animal diseased; therefore, afford
ing means of transmitting tuberculosis
to the human family.
There is another even more serious
objection, it seems to me, with refer
ence to the use of slaughter house
waste, viz, when fattened hogs are
placed in pens where there is a mass
of putrefied, decaying animal products,
being unaccustomed to such a class
of food, quite likely without feed for
some time are naturally ravenous, they
deveur large quantities of these pro-
ducts containing putrefactive poisons,
and probably ptomaines. The result is
that the animals are themselves pois-
oned; they may be stricken down with
severe illness having many of the
symptoms of ptomaine poisoning; the
flesh is feverish and unfit for use I'm
this condition. Some of the animals
are SO completely overcome and purged
by over-eating of this rotten material
that they are scarcely able to stand
and in this condition they are slaugh-
tered. Every butcher knows that meat
from such an animal cannot be prop
erly preserved; that hams cannot be
put down which will keep for any
lengG of time; and yet animal flesh
In this condition. unbeknown to the
consumer comes into the home and il
eaten with injury to the person
1t is not fair to the consuming pub
lie to permit Of possibilities of this kind
of abuse, and the safest way is to see
that all refuse matter from the slaugh-
ter house is properly disposed of with
out being fed to animals that are to be
used for human food.

AND DIVORCE LAWS.

The national commission on uniform
state laws at Chattanooga devoted a
large share of its attention to better
and more uniform marriage and di-
vorce laws among the states of the
Union.
Laws on these subjects vary widely
with the different states. Some are
strict, while others are very lax--and
among them nothing like uniformity
either Of provision or execution exists.
If the people of a state never went
beyond It's borders ito get married or
to secure divorces, then the necessity
of uniformity in such laws would not
be so urgent. But as 1t is now, per-
sonal and property rights in the rela-
tions of marriage and divorce are more
or less uncertain. They are capable of
being too easily warped from the course
OF justice and the well-being of society.
One of the most advanced recommen-
dations was that something in the ma
ture Of the publication of banns be
adopted by each state as a requisite to
a valid marriage.
There is general feeling among
students of the subjects that the peo-
pie have been rather too careless in
the matter of marriage and divorce
regulations.
1t really seems that more good car
come Of regulating and restricting mar
riage--than can come of attempts to
prevent divorce. The divorce evil is a
growing menace to the social struc-
ture. But 1t seems that the fact of a
tremendous number of people coming
to the divorce courts of the land-can
not all be attributed to the mere lax
ness Of divorce laws or to the number
of grounds on which divorce can be
obtained.
The serious feature of the entire
problem is the fact that so many peo-
pie should desire divorce.
With this phase of the problem, laws
and the making of laws and their strict
or lax execution have nothing to do.
The trouble lies back of mere legal
regulations Exactly what this trouble
is, of course, has not been discovered.
It must lie somewhere in present-day
social and moral conditions-in the
evolution Of the new type of the femi-
tnine-and in the changing ideas of the
age in regard to the proper economic
and personal relations between man
and wife.
Stricter marriage regulations are adj
visable. 1t is a mistake, however, TO
expect too much from laws in check
| ing the divorce evil. The disease Is to
be cured, it seems by the application
of social and moral remedies rather
| than by legal ones.
