the fiscal year 1913 than for many
wears. The conscience fund" re-
ceiyed during the twelve months end
ing June 80 totaled only S2,S14.44, the
lowest amount since 1901 and com
parable with hundred-year aver
age of $4,000.
That fund is the only official index
to scruples, but no treasury official
attempts to explain the decrease in
restitution of money received from the
government by fraud or error.
During the last hundred years the
government has received conscience
contributions aggregating nearly a
half million dollars, the exact figures
I'D to June 80 last being s434, $3.50
The remarkable fund was established
during President Madison's admins
tration in 1871, when the first contri-
hutton of SIS was received. The larg-
est amount ever received in one year
was s3S5.S6S in 1902, and the greatest
individual contribution of s1S,669.6O
was made to the collector OF customs
in New York more than decade ago
nv an unidentified person, who prob
ably had defrauded the government OF
tariff duties.
Treasury officials surround the fund
with a certain degree of sacredness.
Usually the penitent sends his con-
tribution anonymously, but If he signs
his name his secret is locked in the
archives of the government 1t is the
one place in the federal establish
ment where a contrite sinner @ay

Investigate
Meat Packing.

upon meat-packing establishments OPP
Grating under federal supervision at
various points in New York, Massa-
chusetts, Connecticut, Missouri and
Illinois. 1t is the purpose of the secre-
tary to extend this work, and to secure
for these inspections the leading au-
thorities in the country, with the idea
that such action will foster confidence
of the public in the meat inspection
work Those already authorized are
as follows:
DIR. w. T. Sedgwick, professor of.
bacteriology and sanitary engineering,
Massachusetts Institute Of Technology,
Boston, to inspect the federally In,
spected establishments at Boston.
Worcester and Brightwood, Mass, and
New Haven. Conn.
DR.. V. A Moore, professor OF path
ology, New York State Veterinary col
lege, Cornell university, Ithaca, to In
spect and report on conditions in the
meat-packing establishments at Phila-
delphia. Pittsburgh, Buffalo and New
York.
DR.. J. w Connaway, Missouri Agri-
cultural college, Columbia, Mo-, to In
spect and report on conditions in the
meat-packing establishments of Kan
sas City, st. Louis, and st. Joseph MOI
and National Stockyards, Illinois.
The secretary's instructions to each
of these experts reads as follows:
with view of safeguarding public
health and maintaining the highest de-
gree of efficiency in the meat inspec-
ton service of this department, it is
my desire that you report directly
to me fully and frankly the conditions
as you find them at the various pack
ing establishments, togethers with such
recommendations looking to the i'm
proyement of the service as in your
Judgment may seem best"
This new inspection of meat-pack-
ing establishments by outside experts,
under temporary assignment by the
government. will In no way supesede
or lessen the work now being done by
the bureau of animal industry. The
idea, according to the secretary, Is
simply to have the inspection and reg
ulatory work checked up by compe-
tent authorities who will report di
rectly to the secretary

popularity and value of the volume. of
which 500 600 copies are printed and
distributed annually.
The series of farmers bulletins will
be continued. The object of these bull
letins is to tell the people how to do
important things. The bulletins viii
contain practical, concise and specific
and CONSTITUTIONAL statements with re-
gard to matters relating to farming.
stock raising, fruit growing, etc. Un-
der the new plan the bulletins will be
reduced in size to from Is to 20 pages,
and will deal particularly with condi-
tons in restricted sections, rather
than attempt, as heretofore, to cover
the entire country.
Much of the information calling for
immediate circulation will be issued
hereafter in the form of statements TO
the press instead of being held back
as heretofore for weeks until bulle-
tin could be printed and issued.
The publication of bulletins dealing
with foreign crop statistics will be dis
continued. Material of this character
when deemed important will be fur
nished to the press for the information
of the public.
Consideration is being given to the
discontinuance of certain annual re-
ports of bureaus now required by law
to be printed, with the belief that
much of the matter therein contained
is unnecessary, while certain portions
could be more advantageously aud
more promptly printed as bulletins or
the department. All executive reports
of chiefs are to be reduced with the OBJ
ject of combining them to business re-
ports strictly.

OF SIMILAR IMPORT.

Within the week we have run across
three paragraphs of similar import:
In his address on THE Prince OF
Peace" Mr.. Bryan submits these two
inquiries:
What would have been the fate of
the church If the early Christians had
had as little faith as many of our
Christians OF today? And if the Chris
tians of today had the faith Of the
martyrs, how long would it be before
the fulfillment of the prophecy that
every knee shall bow and every
tongue confess?"
The editor of the Baptist Standard,
DR.. ]. B. Gambrell, thus impales the
lukewarm:
'Fraternal sentiment is good 1t
is sorely needed in churches to draw
the multitudes from the cold, I'M
friendly world into an atmosphere ia,
vorable to salvation The curse OF
many of our greatest churches is
their lack of emotional disposition
toward a dying world. The decay of
sentiment in religion is the dry rot of
q shallow, silly responsibility in many
churches. It has turned preachers into
stuffed essayists, and whole churches
into valleys of dry bones"
And the Dallas News thus under
takes to account for much of the in.
difference toward the churches:
'If we were asked to state in a
single sentence what it is that is
alternating SO many good men from the
church, we should say that it is the
arrogant disposition of the church S
ministers to tamper with the Deca-
logue and to edit the Sermon on the
Mount in ways to make 1t conform ito
their whims, their prejudices and
their crotchets; that, in word, 1t is
the result of the meddlesome concern
they show over the trivial and super
HClal innings OI lHe 10 tne corresponds
ing neglect of the fundamental and
real things" 4
II is quite evident that there is need
for searching of heart on the part of
both pew and pulpit, assuming that
the foregoing utterances correctly rep
resent existing conditions.-Waco
Times Herald.
We do not believe the trouble lies
in either OF the three-lack of faith,
lack Of the fraternal spirit, or the ar
rogant disposition of the ministers.
We believe the trouble lies in the ever
increasing activity of those influences
that initiate against the church, the
liberty given them for operation on
the Sabbath, and the inactivity of the
church membership. These anti
church influences are either condoned
or escape condemnation. until the pub
lie conscience accepts them as all
right, and gradually the line Of de-
between the church and
the world is being obliterated.

Some forty years ago;
Ills true that grandma used TO airt
With grandpa as her beau.

Would make that hoopskirt whirl;
But grandma wore petticoat
When she was just girl.

He neevr could have sat and gazed
At grandma's silk supporter.
But we'll desist; it might be best,
Lest We should get the quirt;
But all true men, we're sure, detest

senior officers have been instructed
to report at the college.

without much cost. The floors Of the
