Above all, let us find out who, in this Swedenborgian angle, are the arch-vulgarians so that we may shunt their companionship Just to enlighten a blind world that is in its own life all too vulgar. will some one please cast a stone at the man-animal who is least sweet and fine among us all2

 You can sit in a leather-eushoned of flee shair in New York and kill man in Lincoln, Neb.
 You can commit a crime by long dis tance telephone or by telegraph.
 And not only is 1t much easier to kill men this way, but it is much safer than fl you were on the ground.

 We'll say switchman is killed in the railroad yards at Indianapolis because oi back of proper equipment or a brakeman is crippled at Cheyenne because of the lack of safety appliances required by law Who committed the crime?
 The division SuperintendentE
 Probably he has called the attention oi the general manager to this very lack And probably the general manager has urged the board of directors to provide for the equipment. Who then is guilty?
 The men who sit about the mahogany table in New York

I do not know how vast is the sweep of the vision of almighty God, nor what He beholds in the vast sweep of that vision. but doubt if He looks down upon any work that is more pleasing to Him than the care of orphan children.
 Looking at this question from a purely economic standpoint 1t is far cheaper to the state and society to save these chil- dren than 1t Is to support them as crim- inals and paupers. The Juker family of New York city is famous illustration of this truth. A neglected girl on the
