CHURCH CLOSES FOREVER
All Saints Rector in New York Gives
Up His Charge Easter.

New York, March 20.-The doors
of All Saints church where worshiped
the descendants of the old Knicker-
bockers in years gone, will close for
ever on Easter Sunday, when the Rev.
Dr. William N. Dunnell, it's venerable
rector, gives up his charge.
Mr.. DunnelPs retirement marks the
passing from active life of New Works
oldest Episcopal clergyman. For
more than forty years he has been
rector of All Saints church. He was
baptized in the edifice when the elite
of New York society worshiped there
and witnessed the encroachment of
business houses upon the residential
section in which the church was then
situated, until almost the last of his
once large and fashionable flock left
the neighborhood.
There are now upon the church
rolls less than a hundred names where
sixty years ago there were 1900.

TAG THE CHILDREN.
Campaign Against the kissing of Chill
dren Reaches Here.

New York. March 2o.-Mothers who
wish to follow the latest fads in the
nursery, must equip their children
with printed labels bearing the words
mo me bese'' edo not kiss me.) The
tags, specimens of which have just
reached this country, are the result of
an European campaign against the
promiscuous kissing of children. The
wording is in Spanish because the idea
is said to have originated with Queen
Victoria of Spain.
On hygienic grounds, so the story
goes. the queen directed that her three
children should not be embraced by
all and sundry court attendants who
desired merely to show their loyalty.

MIR. WooDWARD,s KICK.

A lawyer charges man $40 for
ten minutes conversation. The
man insists on paying it. A doctor
charges one dollar for a prescription
and the patient says: "Oh, pshaw!
Is that enough?" An undertaken
charges 500 for conducting a fun
eral, and he is just perfectly lovely
with everybody inside and outside of
the family, says the Marion, (Ga.)
Record. A man buys a gold brick
and apologies for not having bitten
before. An editor walks a mile in
the hot sun to get facts of a death
or wedding or social function and
spends three hours writing it up
and tells lies praising people until
he hates himself. Then if he makes
an insignificant omission or charges
five cents straight for three extra
copies he is a stingy, careless, good
for-nothing old cuss who never gets
anything right and charges four
times the price of city papers twice
as large.-Peekville Journal.

INSURING WORKMEN AGAINST
SICKNESS.

England three years ago estab-
lished system of old age pensions
provided entirely by the government
at cost of $65, 100000 per year.
Now the government proposes to
add to this line of work by the fur
nishing of an insurance of workmen
against sickness and unemployment.
This is not to provide against aeci-
dents, as the worker in England en-
joys the right to compensation at the
expense of his employer if he meets
with an accident in the course of his
work. 1t does not provide either for
insurance against death for most of
the workmen in the British isles
have policies with insurance COM
panies or fraternal organizations.
An outline of the provisions of
the National Insurance Bill is given
in the June number of the Bulletin
of Social and Economic Intelligence
published by the International In
stitute of Agriculture. The insur-
ance against sickness, it appears,
will be compulsory for certain clas-
ses of workers and voluntary for
others. 1t is calculated that the
number of workers who will be COM
pulsorily insured, if the Bill be-
comes law in it's present form, will
be 100000 while 100000 will be
voluntarily insured, making a total
of 14,700,000.
The insurance will be based up
The citizen. (Honesdale, Pa.) 1908-1914, 1911-09-06

on a system of contributions fromI
the workers and employers, supple-I
mented by contribution from theI
State. The normal contributions
will be 8 cents per week from work.
men Cor 6 cents per week fromI
women workers.; s cents per week.
from the employer, and cents perl
week from the State.
Where wages are lower than col
cents per week, the workers con-|
tribution will be reduced, but the|
employers contribution will be corr
respondingly increased so that the
combined contribution of worker|
and employer will always be 14|
cents per week in the case of men
and IL cents per week in the easel
of women.
Workmen who insure voluntarily
will pay Ia cents per week and
women workers IA cents per week.
The normal benefits will be medi-
cal attendance and a sick allowance
of $3.50 per week for men Cor $1.S8
per week for women) for the first
thirteen weeks and $1.25 per week
(for both men and women) for the
next thirteen weeks. Women will
also be given maternity allowance
of $7.20.
Where there is permanent dis
ablement, an allowance of $1.25 per
week will be given to men and wom-
en- alike.
Special measures will be taken to
provide consumption sanatoria, it bel
ing estimated that no less than 500,i
900 persons in the British Isles are
suffering from consumption.
When the scheme is in full work
ing order it is calculated that the
sums paid for sickness insurance by
the workers will be $45,000,000 and
by the employers 100000, while
the cost to the state will be $22,-
100000.
The employment insurance pro-
vided by the Bill is of a tentative
character. 1t will affect only the
engineering and building trades, but
will be compulsory for the 100000
workers engaged in these trades
