The original nursing bottle was q

its nourishment between the stitches.
According to DR.. ID. Forsyth. fifteenth
century mothers used to nurse their
babies for close upon three years, a
duration still customary among the
Japanese and Greenlanders. In the
time OF the Stuarts 1t had declined to
between eighteen months and two
years. In the time OF the Georges 1t
fell to one year. and now he reckoned
the average as eight months.
During the Hanoverian period the
practice OF feeding babies artificially
became somewhat common. Cows milk

cARIcATURES ON THE STAGE
Appeal to PIaywrishts to Make Their
Characters a Little More
True to Nature.

At the anniversary festival OF the
Royal General Theatrical Fund j. L..
GrifRths, United States consul gen
eral, spoke word of appeal for some
improvements in the drama. He
would like, he said, to see a play In
which there was really spiritual
clergyman, an honest barrister,
straightforward diplomatist and an
American gentleman. Mr.. Griffiths'
views have been generally Endorsed
by the press
II is acknowledged that diplomatists
are presented on the stage too con-
sistently as creatures Of preternatural
cunning. never as men with human
limitations. The popular dramatic
type of clergyman, the muscular, Is
more firing still; every curate is not
the physical equal of prizeflghter
An American gentleman would be
very welcome on the English stage
The type almost invariably presented
is like nothing on earth. He Is neither
a gentleman nor an American. II Is
true he no longer calculates by
gosh" or Il calculate" but he con
tinues to be caricature. and a bad
caricature at that.

High Cost of Selling.
(St. Paul DIsnatchl

B. F. Yoakum, chairman of the ex.
ecutlve committee OF the Frisco lines
says the big problem before the PEG,
pie is "the high cost of selling" Flo
points out that tho selling cost Of
farm products frequently amounts to
1O4 per cent. The middleman is an
important factor in the cost OF living
and one 1t is difficult to dodge. His
profits are large in the aggregate, yet
not unreasonable in any individual
case. A statement such as that made
by Mr. Yoakum would indicate that
the mlddlemen are getting rich at a
rapid rate, when such is not always
the case, The selling price from the
producer to the sonsumer may be
producer to the consumer may be
without undue charging on the part Of
the mildlemen. The ultimate con.
sumer pays not only what the pro,
duct was worth at the farm, but what
It is worth to get 1t from the farm to-
him, he being unable to buy direct.
The cost Of selling Is bound to be
high under our system. The only
hope is in simplifying our methods so
MS, to bring the consumer and produc.
err closer together.

Systematic Life Saving.
Fundamentals Star)


The entrance of the great life in.
surance companies into the health con
servatlon field constitutes one of the
most remarkable phases Of the wide
movement for life preservation which
has boom so active In this country in
the last 10 years. For a long time the
life insurance companies apparently
could not be convinced that any "iden
tity OF interest" existed between them
and public health, 1t being held that
sickness and death had all been dis,
counted by mortality tables. that
people were bound to die. and that
the companies had no concern in the
matter except to collect the insur.
ance assessments during life, and pay
the stipulated benefit at death. But
OF late there seems to have come q
realization that the health of tn pol.
icyholder is of decided importance to
the insurance company and that the
company protects Its Golfers greatly
by looking after the health OF those
carried as risks. The new supeyvIs,
ion Of the companies over their policy
holders forms sort Of semipaternal.
ism little to have been looked for In
such quarter, but the wilson of all
such steps is based on the question
of whether it pays or not, and in this
case the companies evidently have
found that the books balance on the
right side of the ledger in the face OF
really formidable expenditure.
