These things. no less than baked
beans, are bad for us unless they are
recommended by an experienced die

There are too many amateur die

One end falls from the hat at the left

A tiny bow, or a little nose-gay or

Nearly all ruffs are fastened with
loops and ends of velvet ribbon Some

this is not usual. Short smart bows

FIRST EUGENICS CONGRESS-.
A Multiplication of Problems Being
Discussed Mt London Gathering.

A great many problems of inn
portance to the race are being dis
by the delegates to the Inter
national Eugenies congress, which
opened in London on Thursday and
continues during the present week.
1t is not to be expected that the
cable will tell us much of what takes
place, but the English newspapers
and subsequent magazine articles may
be looked to to contain much OF in
terest, says the San Francisco
Chronicle.
Eugenics Is the newest of the
sciences-if indeed, 1t can yet be
called a science-and the present
congress is the first international
gathering of physicians. sociologists
and philanthropic men and women
interested in 1t. AS there are said to
be more than 900 persons in atten-
dance 1t is evident that interest in
the movement to improve mankind Is
widespread, and 1t Is not unlikely
that a permanent international body
will be formed, through which CON-
White Pine news weekly mining review. [volume] (East Ely, Nev.) 1910-1920, 1912-08-11

munication between the eugenists of
the world can be maintained.
Among the measures which so far
have been proposed in the name of
eugenics are the checking of the
transmission of criminal tendencies,
the stopping of immortality and the
stamping out of degeneracy by pre-
venting the reproduction of the un-
fit and the forbidding of the mar
riage of the mentally deficient.
So far there has been no consensus
Of opinion in the world as to the
question of the requirement of a
medical certificate from persons who
desire to be married. There has been
some ill-considerd legislation in
troduced and partly enacted in
one or two states in this country,
but such hasty measures are not
likely to be countenanced by the
congress in London.
No question that will come be-
fore the London gathering will re-
quire nor delicate handling than
this. If future races are to benefit
from this far-reaching innovation,
jurists and social philosophers will
have to cooperate with experienced
physicians in framing measures for
the protection of the individual as
well as of society.
In England a preliminary step in
the contemplated direction is con-
tanned in a Predetermined control

enforce the segregation of those
congenitally inferior in intellect
On the other hand, 1t has been pro-
posed in that country to assist poor
but healthy families by a govern
ment bonus during the trial of ma
ternity. by the remission of taxes
and by the grant of scholarship
where the children are numerous
and physically strong.
There are many ~dfficulties in deal
ing sanely with the problem OF
eugenics. Many of the reforms pro-
posed by individual eugenfsts par
take of the nature OF the
panaceas suggested by some poll
tical reformers. The world can
not be made to grow better and
happier by leaps and bounds, and
the most that can be expected is q
very gradual improvement.

LEADS TO
MORPHINE HABIT.
EDWARD LANGLEY, SKILLED
MECHANIC, BUT VAGARENT
FROM USE OF DRUG, IS TWICE
ARRESTED IN RENO.

When Ed Langley was brought
into the police station, he begged the
officers not to lock him up in a cell.
In a broken voice, trembling and
%hesitating. he pleaded to be allowed
his liberty. Don't put me back
there" he cried. Il can't stand 1t.
| won't run away 1t was n of
those pitiful scenes which tears into
a mans heart and the circumstances
surrounding Langley's case made il
all the more heart rending, says the
Reno Gazette.
1t appears that Leangley, a man of
intelligence, a mechanic skilled In his
craft, was about two weeks ago
brought into the police station rag
ged and unkempt. He was one of a
bunch of desolate men whom the po-
lice had rounded up and when he was
brought before the police judge was
given a sentence of ten days. He
was placed on the chain gang and
worked out eight days of his sentence
and then paid the last four
dollars he possessed in the world to
secure his freedom. In spite of the
advice of the police that he had bet
ter stay the other two days and have
the money to buy food with when he
released, he stated that he
couldn't bear to stay in the jail long
er and he would rather leave without
a cent than to remain longer. He
gave up the four dollars and depart
ed.
He handn't enjoyed his freedom
more than a few hours when a tele-
gram came from Salt Lake City that
he was wanted in that city for not
supporting his child. The police drag
net was spread out and within an
hour Langley a located and
brought to the police station.
1t was then that he made his plea
to be allowed his freedom, that he
wouldn't run away and could be
found whenever he was wanted.
With tears In his eyes, his voice trem-
bling and uncertain, he begged
pitiously NOT to be locked up again
In the cell. What's the use of my
trying to be straight" he sobbed.
This is awful"
And back to the cell from which
he had been allowed to depart but
a few hours previous, he was led by
the officers. His story is heart rend-
ing. Not long ago his wife died and
the weight of sorrow which fell upon
him was too great to bear. His suf-
ferings were intense, his grief genu-
inc. He sought relief through NOR
phine. He became addicted to the
habit. And there was the secret of
the downfall of the skilled mechanic,
the mar who could become a useful
member of society, who might sup
port his child in ease and give her a
education and a good home.
Trouble had assailed him and he
for relief to the very thing
which was making him worthless.
He needs a guiding hand. Jail
sentences are not the remedy, neither
is conviction on a charge of nom
support of his children going to i'm
prove the situation. He needs a friend
a true n who will guide him safely
over the rocky highway upon which
he has stumbled.
