SUICIDES IN FRANCE.

1901 was S,S1s (6,809 men and 2,009
women. has been increasing, espec-
tally since 1905, until in 1910 1t was
9,819 This number is evidently less
than the total number of suicides,
for without doubt many suicides are
never noted by the authorities. The
suicide rate is 25 per hundred thous-
and This is three times what it was

thousand in 1910, II in 1880, % in

English style of architecture. With
steel and reinforced concrete forming
the principal basis for the structure,
the completed hotel will seem

ers, graziers and experts who come
to Chicago. 1t will represent almost
the last word in appointments for
luxury. good service, sanitation and
good cheer. 1t will be reminiscent in

Workingmen' S Insurance
Eminent Scientist Maintains That National Greatness Must
Be Based More Energy Reserve Than on
Money Reserve.
Money Reserve.

DR.. Zahn discussed the operation OF
the law in Germany, saying that out
OF $4,000 600 workingmen, 100000
OF them are carrying sick Insurance
as result of the legislation while To-
roc, 900 Of them carry invalid and old
age insurance. Between the years OF
1885 and 1910, he said 100.000,000 sick
and disabled and injured Germans
and their relatives had received bene-
fits through the operation Of the law.
\ In the above-named period nearly
81, 918, SOC, 900 was expended for work
ingmen's insurance. This was at the
rate Of nearly $450,00O on an average
daily to the advantage OF those IN
sured BY reason Of this the law has
resulted in higher valuation OF the
worl1ingman's life and, consequently,
greater effort on his part to con-
serve his own energies and thus pro-
long his life. The moral influence 10
this connection is not to be overlook
ed. Workingmen'B insurance has
straightway become the foundation
and corner stone for preventive social
hygiene. Dr. Zahn asserted mat ~ -
everywhere realized that the money
spent in workingmen's insurance is a
good investment because 1t increases
icommercial activity.
The conclusions reached by DR..
Zahn were that in the complicated
system of industrial and social life
today worlingmen's insurance will be
4 potent factor in bringing about bet
ter social hygiene because it will
teach the workingmen methods OF
personal hygiene, and that 1t also
means great commercial productivity
because it conserves the energy Of
the lajhoring classes. Because Of these
two results from such legislation DR..
Zahn believes that it is but ques-
ton OF time until all civilized nations
will be compelled to adopt working
mems insurance legislation

New York World: Woodrow Will

That far-sighted policies OF social
improvement and national greatness
must be based more on energy re-
serve than on money reserve,
and hence that workingmen's in
surance is the logical step for ma
tons to take, was the conclusion
reached by DR.. Frederick Zahn OF
Munich, Germany, in an address be-
fore the International Congress on
hygiene and Demography In Washing
ton the last week in September. DR..
Zahn received gold medal at the
worlds fair In st. Louis in 1904 for his
book dealing with workingmens in
surance. He Is considered an inter
national authority on the subject,
'Workingmen's insurance; its SO
cial hygienic and social-political inn
portance" was the title Of DR. Zahn's
address. The people and the peo-
pies strength is the greatest asset
of any nation he said by way Of In
PRODUCTION at is not a mass, not a
negligible quantity, but an organic
national capital. whose meaning rep
resentsa the foundation Of culture and
commercial productivity From this
the German scientist argued that the
judging OF nations wealth must be
measured by quantitive greatness and
the maturity Of the people of that
nation. He said that the systematic
conservation of this great nation
al capital is the aim of the
workingmens insurance legislation.
1.-THE foundation of every far
sighted social policy must be based
more on energy reserve than on mon
ey reserve. The aim Of this legisla-
ton is to secure the greatest possible
reserve of mental force and power in
the workingmen of the country"

Now with the Introduction of each
of these monstrosities into the world
recreation lamentation arises, accom-
panied by a demand that they be sup

And as each one grows worse the
natural speculation is as to the fu-

become SO bad that they can be stop

EFFECT AT PUMPKIN HOLLOW.
Well, election day Is over, and the
country's runnin yit;
Can't see any change whatever-riot
a solitary bit;
When the hens lay eggs they cackle,
just the way they did before;
There are problems left to tackle and
there's trouble still in store:
Ezra Brown still has lumbago-jus
as bad as ever, too
Do you find it makes your pay go
further than it used to do?
Teethin' babies keep on cryin.' never
noticin' the change;
And the sharpers still are tryin'
swindles that are new and
strange;
Death appears to be as fatal as before
the ruction came;
Looks as though the ship of s.ate'll
keep on floatin' just the same;
Deacon Smith still tries to borrow.
without havin' much success,
And the sun will rise tomorrow some
where in the east, guess.
Windows that are loose Sill rattle
when the wind begins to blow,
And we have to feed the cattle as we
did year ago;
Folks who thought we'd all face ruin
if things failed to go their way
Seem to still be up and dom if they
haven't much TO say;
Henry Hungerford's still settin' on a
box up to the store,
While his wife is busy gettin' paler
than she was before.
Still, the preachers keep on preach
in; doctors too, are on the
trot;
Greedy people still are reachin' for
the money that you've got;
City fellers who are gunnin' skin their
shins on every log;
Government keeps right on runnin,
never havin' slipped cog;
Billy Spooner's indigestion keeps a
a dark look on his brow,
And we'll have the tariff question UP
again four years from now.
