The Increasing prevalence OF in
fantile paralysis In many parts OF the
world Is dlsquieting, and In England
some agitation has been caused by
DIR. Reece's theory that a recent cpl
demic In Devon and Cornwall was
caused by the dust raised by automo-
biles. Dust has been more OF an is-
sue there than in this country. per
haps because the country is more
compact and the main roads more
densely occupied by motor vehicles.
There have been many complaints OF
the depreciation OF property because
of the incessant dust clouds raised by
the endless procession Of automobiles
whlrring past at high speed. and this
modern nuisance. combined with the
unprecedented epidemic OF infantile
paralysis. has naturally led many TO
accept DR.. Reece's view. In this coun-
try II has been received skeptically.
DR. Herman Biggs. general medical d.
rector OF the New York board OF
health, observes that II DR., Reece Is
right there should be continuous ep-
idemic along motor routes. which Is
not the case. Yet IL this sound logic?
Dust clouds might spread the disease
when II existed. and yet not carry II

SAYS MEAT INSPECTION
IN NEW YORK A JOKE
Ex-lnspector Testifies Abattoir Owners
Fail to Comply With Health or

Washington. May 17.-Dr. John A.

spector who testified before the house
committee investigating the meat in
spector service OF the United States.
on Monday, prefeced his testimony on
Wednesday by this statement:
There is not one of the twenty or
more packing houses in New York that
complies with the federal sanitary reg
ulations, there is not one which slaugh-
tiers meatproducing animals in a man.
ner intended to best safeguard the pub

timely exhibits respect for an in
spector's orders when he attempts to
remedy conditions, nor one that would
not permit worse conditions to exist
were it not for the weak, restraining
hand which the federal authorities
now place upon them
Laddey's testimony resolved itself
into the most startling revelations of
the abuses In the meat inspection serv-
ice and of the utter disregard of health
and sanitation that has yet been pro-
duced.
i know as a fact" declared Doctor
Laddey, that whenever the packers
object TO some ruling or regulation in
the meat inspection service, all that lie
necessary to have 1t changed as they
wish is visit to Washington. This
is common gossip from the incense
quential employe of packing house
to those in authority. Their attitude
toward an inspector is one of super
huous contempt. The majority of an
inspectors condemnation rulings are
reversed by his SUPERIOR"
This conditions, he said, led him to
tender his resignation.
i felt that / could not longer re-
main government meat inspector
and retain my self-respect," said Doc
tor Laddey.
According to J. W. Burroughs, who
was formerly an inspector of meat I'M
der the jurisdiction of the departm emit
of agriculture and who gave testimony
before the house committee Monday
on expenditures in that department,
the standard of meat inspection had
gone lower every year since the pres
ent law went into effect in 1906
At the present time, according to
the witness. conscientious inspectors
regard their presence in packing
houses as something merely perfume
tory.

There has been much discussion OF
the need of wedding out TO keep
public Libraries in the highest condl'
ton of efficiency. Much can be said
on both sides OF this question. not
only as applied to libraries. but as
applied TO human possessions in gen
eral. How far is It worth while to
preserve old rubbish" The accumu-
lations In garrets TO be tolerated on
any terms? Would IT be well for every
household to give away at once ana
absolutely every article of clothing
or furniture or household decoration.
and every toy and book as soon as the
need which prompted its acquisition
has passed? There are those who
would say: Yes say the Milwaukee
Wisconsin. In this age Of living in
fats many housewives are obliged to
follow this rigid rule. Where people
live in roomy houses with space to
store old things If they like, why is 1T
not best that they should consult their
preferences. instead OF following rules
devised by others? The Joy OF fu-
ture antiquarians will be much
abridged II at the end OF every year
every family gets rid Of everything 1t
does not need. However. It Is fool
ish thing to accumulate clothing and
furniture that one can never use
again, when there are constant oppor-
tunities to minister TO the comfort
of deserving poor by giving discarded
superfuities to those who can put
them to immediate use.

Paris, May 16.-At an early hour

the late King Christian TX. sustained
his relations with the people In an
admirable manner, at once modest
and dignified.
His long life was without incident,
excitement or adventure. His earliest
impressions we're those of the happy
domestic relations of his father and
mother who. from a poverty which
had forced that father to spend part
of his time as a teacher of drawing
to the children of wealthy people, had
been lifted at one stroke TO the an
cient throne of Denmark.

Alexander William. the new king OF

larly for his happy marriage with

the crown prince, and Knut Christian
Frederick Michael, born July 81, 1900.
The new queen of Denmark is just
three months younger than her hus-
band, having been born on December
"a. 1870. King Christian X. was born
at Charlottenlund on September 20.

The present king is colonel of the
One Hundred and Fourth regiment OF

the Annunciad, St Andrew and the

How Names Are Chosen.
The repetition of the names Freder-
lex and Christian in the members OF
the royal family OF Denmark is not
able. This repetition is due to a fam
lily law which requires that each son
shall bear the name OF either Fred
erick Christian or Christian Frederick.
BY the same law the monarchs are
crowned alternately as Frederick or
Christian. Thus the successor of the
present king. whichever of his sons
II may be. will Ike known as Fred
erick N.
The name Kuut or "Canute" reap
pears frequently also in the royal line
of Denmark, being borne by the
younger son OF the present king This
is out OF respect for the original King
Canute the Great. who, besides inef'
fectually commanding the waters OF
the ocean to roll back from his throne,
crossed over to England with a host,
gained effective control OF that island
