"Any Children :"
rom rhe Chicago Tribune.

From the Chicago Tribune.
The question of rent-and babies-makes
the whole world kin. The municipal au-
thorities of France have just discovered
that there Is q vital relation between n
declining birth rate and prohibitive rent
ais. The birth rate In 1912 has been the
lowest since 1851 In Paris. because rent
has been soaring sky high. An addition
to the family means paying more for
lodging or else going into less conven-
lent home and into a cheaper neigh
borhood.
The municipal authorities in Chicago
have not yet got to the stage Of viewing
the rent problem from the child angle.
But We are fast coming to il. Ii Is a sad
truth that babies are all too frequently
considered superfiuous by the owners and
builders OF modern apartment houses.
Amy children Is the brisk question
which the agent pops before he lets you
take look at his up-to-date fiat. liz
chubby-facede youngsters you have TO
look for a nat that has none of the up

to saying that you must stay In the
cheaper and dirtier neghborhoods OF the
city unless you can afford and wish 10

to-date flats in Chicago are putting on

Not All Are Millionaires.

The habit of English newspapers Of
clubbing every American who, for any
reason. worthy or otherwise. is consider
lionaire" has at last aroused a protest
from Americans living in England.
The habit was never better exemplified
than In a recent case CT the disappear
ance in London of an American visitor.
Every paper In London and most OF those
in the country. came out with big head
lines, IN every one of which the words
American" and millionaire" were con-
Spicuous News agencies are constantly
sending out stories of the adventures of
an american millionaire who, upon in
name is not known outside his own home
town, and who had in all probability
saved for years the few dollars that en-
abled him to come over England.
This habit Of the English has it's in
conveniences for Americans travelling or
living in the country. There are always
two prices at the hotels and other places
Englishman. This Is what aroused the
protest of an American living in the
country. He prayed the papers to stop
1t, saying he found his cost of living very
much greater than his English neighbor.
The man who has the greatest grfev-
ance, however, is an Englishman who
has married an American ''heiress," SO
called. His name got into list of for
eigners who had married fortunes In
America, and was duly published in Eng
land. He now explains in a letter to the
papers that his wife did not bring him a
fortune. and that the prevailing belief in
her great wealth is causing them great
embarrassment. not the least of which is
found in the constant stream of demands
from the needy.

The English Yeoman.
from the London Chronicle.

From the London Chronicle.
The degradation and misuse of words
goes on apace: it is q pity that every
writer who misuses the printed word
can't be fined for the benefit Of the Ian
guage and the national exchequer A
contemporary. referring to emigration
from the south and west. has for a SUBJ
headline. 1890 Yeomen Leave England
in One Day." Now "yeoman" is a good
old English word the meaning OF which
should be carefully cherished. Any coun-
try laborer or farmer IS not a yeoman.
A yeoman Is a man who cutivates his
own freehold, who farms his own land.
He is no mans servant. and may hold his
head as high as the squire. There are
still yeomen OF ancient blood In England
who would sniff at the offer of title.
One OF the finest men l ever knew was "a
Dorset yeoman. and his ancestors had
farmed the same land for three centuries.

The secret Of the retirement Of Sir
Percy Girouard from the imperial service
to join the board OF directors OF the great

Sir Percy is Canadian by birth. and he

gard to the dry docks to be built at Hall

stood that. the private tenders for these
docks having proved unsatisfactory. the
Canadian government has decided to build
them itself.
Sir Percy Girouard was born in Mon
treal. He Joined the Royal Engineers.
and, making railway construction a spe-
cialfy. rendered splendid service to Great
Britain in Egypt and South Africa. He
built the railway which took Kitchener to
khartum, reorganized the Egyptian rail-
ways. and when Kitchener went to South
Africa to conclude the South African
war he Immediately sent for the French
Canadian, who became commissioner Of
railways in the Transvaal and Orange
River colony, rebuilding what had been
destroyed during the war. A few years
in Nigeria and East Africa as chief Of the
administration of those colonies and Sir
Percy resigned to go into the shipbuild-
ing business.
His withdrawal from the government
service gave rise to controversy as to
whether the imperial government paid its
servants sufficient to retain them when
Dig salaries were offered by private con-
Germs. Many q man who would have
rendered invaluable service to the coun-
try has been attracted by the salaries Of
fering in private life, and most Of the big
