BLOW TO VILLAGE LIFE
Or. Howe Says Mortality is Greater in
the Country Than In the Cities.

the country nan IN tne Cltfes'
Ithaca, N. Y, Jan. 1S.-ln spite of
the favorable conditions in which they
live the mortality among country folk
is greater than among people living in
the city, says DR.. Charles II. Howe,
director of the division of communica-
BILE diseases of the New York State
Department of Health. He accounts
for this condition by the fact that
country people are not willing to
spend the money for improved sani-
tary conditions. In cities people real
ize that the congested centres promote
disease and consequently spend a
greet deal of money for sanitary pur-
poses. Dr. Howe thinks, however,
that country folk are waking up and
that there will be long strides in
health lines in the future.

OF INTEREST TO WOMEN.
FROM WOMANS
POINT OF VIEW

1t seems incredible that there can be
a respectable number OF homes where
the floors are covered with carpets and
mating and where women wear them
selves out in the endeavor to keep dust
at bay, but / can state with authority
that there are several in my own neigh
borhood The puzzling feature is that
these women are up-to-date in all other
matters.
| In no place are advanced methods more
needed than in home-making. The domes-
tic problem is miles away from the soly-
ing point. for each year finds domestic
helpers fewer and higher-priced, also less
/ efficient and willing. The increased cost
| OF living has placed them outside the
calculations of the wage-earner's family,
and yet there Is where assistance is

and many grades. but the wise housewife

BRADBURY SMONEY
TO AID PRISONERS
Directors Meet at San Quentin
Prepared to Accept Gift
of $500
Fund May Be Used to Promote
Warden Hoyle's General
Reform Scheme
Especial Dispatch TO The Call


SAN QUENTIN, July 15.-The state
board of prison directors, which went
into session this evening to consider
routine business, will take UP Million
aire William 3. Bradbury's offer of
$4,000 for the benefit of first term pa
rolled prisoners tomorrow
Bradbury called on Warden Hoyle
July I, four days after his release from
the penitentiary, and rendered $4,000 to
be placed in a fund for needy paroled
prisoners. The warden declined to ac-
cept the money, but promised to bring
the matter before the state prison di-
rectors
Bradburys first scheme was to put
the money in a San Francisco bank and
charge 10 per cent interest, on the the
ory that those who would reimburse
the fund would, by their interest make
up the deficit caused by those who
would never return the money bor-
rowed.
At the suggestion of Warden HoyIe
he has now decided to permit the di-
rectors to formulate a plan by which
the money will do the most good. The
board will in all probability accept the
aged millionaires donation and use it
in conformance with the general
scheme of reform instituted by Warden
Hoyle. When the new building is COM
pleted the prisoners will be segregated
according to the degrees of their
crimes, but Bradbury's plan to aid only
first term paroled men is the initial
step in that direction.
