A Pension Roll For Mothers.


Mrs. Mabel Potter Daggett. describ-
ing in the Worlds Work the pension.
ing Of destitute mothers. tells Of the
valuable experiments that several of
the states are already putting to the
test.
Two states. Missouri and Illinois. in
1911 put motherhood regularly on the
payroll. The court awards what is
called IL pension to any mother Of good
character who needs such assistance
properly to bring up her children
Hitherto 1t has been the custom when
home failed In the struggle for exist
ence for the court to place such chill
dren IN an institution. This new reve-
latiun Of sociology. however. says that
a ciiltl's mother. II she Is the right sort
of woman, Ia Gods own institution for
its upbringing
The Cook county Juvenile court in
the city OF Chicago last summer had
some 327 mothers. with an aggregate
of 1.NM children. cared for on this plan
1t Is costing the community an average
Of $5.75 per month per child az against
$40 per month per child under the old
institutional plan. 1t will cost the
state Of Illinois this year about $780,
GOO. The state authorities have said
they don't care IL 1t goes to 100000
The contract with the mothers will be
cheap ut that. for 1t is counted on to
diminish the bill for crime that is now
costing Cook county alone 100000 a

Las Cases. the biographer Of Ma
poleOn ROnaparte. thus describes the
origin of the title lie Petit Caporal:"
A singular custom was established In
the army Of Italy In consequence Of
the youth Of the commander or from
some other cause After each battle
the Oldest soldiers used to hold a coun.
Gil and confer a new rank on their
young general. who. when he made his
appearance in the camp. was received
by the veterans and saluted by his
new title. They made him corporal
ut Lodi and a sergeant at CastigliOne,
ard hence the surname Of "Petit
CalWral." which was for a long time
appIIed to Napoleon by the soldiers.
How subtle is the chain which unites
the most trivial circumstance to the
most Important events! Perhaps this
very nickname contributed to his mi
racnlous success on his return In 1915.
While lie was harnnguing the first bat.
talon. which he found it necessary to
address. voice from the ranks ex-
claimed: 'r.ve nOtre petit caporal! We

DIVORCE.

There Is this new fashion of
divorce. | am married to wO-
man. and because | do not like
the way she wears her hair, be-
cause she sings out Of tune, be-
cause she will not so motoring
with me. say that she is no
wife of mine; that l will divorce
her-trifles. nothing but trifles,
yet ever gaining an ignoble i'm
pOrtance in the childless mar
riage. Tie average divorce is
simply an exhibition of the most
dcplorable lack of self restraint.
When Rome grew rich and mer-
cenary and pleasure loving. when
she forgot the sanctities of the
home and Of virtuous living.
when she defied nature and the
sane, normal human instincts
and impulses. when she became
a mass Of greed and corruption.
she was smashed! l think that
God will wait and look on only
a little while longer and then
he will send his thunderbolt.-
