the sense of independence that does
not come to the family in a rented

rent that he turns over to his land
lord is money practically thrown
away. That is, he knows that it is
too much to pay for the merely tenn

When one stops to think of the
amount of money that Is put away In
rent during twenty or twenty-five
years. one is amazed and dumfound

expended, except a bundle of rent re-

THE CRIMINAL AS A PUBLIC PET

In recent special cable dispatch to

pendent summarized the contents of
an official blue book, issued by the
British Home Office. presenting the
results of an experts careful study
of crimes causes and effects Some
OF the striking and significant con-
clusions reached seem to apply with
equal force on this side of the At

of persons charged with indictable
Offenses in 1908 and 1909 is seen i'm
the compassion of the public for the
offender. Magazines and periodicals
are much too sympathetic toward the
criminal, il is found. since they tend
10 range the reading public on the
side of the lawbreaker and against
the law. The tendency, says the
British expert, is to regard the Grim
inal not so much as an offender
against society as a victim of so
ciety, and to consider crime as the
efflux of revolt by the poor
against the rich. Yet the poor are
the chief victims of criminals.
Quite properly and pointedly. the
danger is manifested of going to an
extreme in so shaping punishment
as to make it attractive rather than
repulsive to lawbreakers. This. to-
gether with the danger of reading
romance into the life of the criminal.

THE EASTER BONNET
THE OSTRICH PLUME
ealke's Big Curio Store the Place for
the Latter.

In a very little while Easter will be
here. This statement naturally includes
the other that the new hats and bon
nets will be here. Thus one is led logi-
cally to Balke's Big Curio store where
the ostrich feathers are. A hat or a
bonnet is not completew ithouJ an Os-
trich plume. 1t is a decoration that
will never go out of fashion so long as
women wear head gear and during he
same period will always be the chief
decoration
Therefore, every woman wants a
ostrich plume and she wants the best
she can get for the money. That state
ment brings one back to the Bake Big
such excellent and SNOWY plumes be
purchased for so little money.
All of them are the genuine Arizona
Iostrich plumes. which experts have pro-
nounced TO be the best i'm the world
in texture and i'm glossiness. So sure
is the management of the Big Curio
store of the excellence of its stock and
of its lower prices that il invites in
tending purchasers of plumes to inves-
tigate everywhere else before coming
10 the Big Curio store. Then they will
be prepared to make an intelligent COM
parison of the richness OF the plumes
and the prices.
The Big Curio store has always sold
ostrich feathers cheaper than they
could be obtained anywhere else Even
its regular low prices have now been

Chicago has been much disturbed
of late by various remarkable fail

guilty Of grave crimes, despite the
fact that convincing evidence of
their offending was presented. The
feeling that these shocking verdicts
mirrored a warped and atrophied
