A Charity Expert.

Excellent progress has been made in the work
of reorganzing Richmond's charities The
needs have been seen, the weakness of present
methods has been felt and determined effort is
being made to cope with the situation.
But it is in the very work of reorganization
that most difficulty is encountered 1t is lust
that part of the task which convnces every in
terested person that charity is indeed a science
to be administered only by those with special
training for the task.
The value of expert advice has been recent]v
demonstrated by the work Mr.. Sanborn has done
Tor the local library. In day. because of his
expert ability, he was able to untange knots that
had baffled local people for months.
The same thing can be done for our charity
work by an expert and there is no better place
10 IND one than with the Russell Sage Founda
ton with which institution Mr. Whites charity
committee has been in communication. To b,vo
man come from New York would entail Some
expense, but that small sum would be savad
many times over by the economy made possib]e
through his recommendations
The charity committee has performed +b;s
TASK thus far expeditiously If it can arranoa r.
place Russell Sage expert at the service If
ihlchmond, it will surely be worthy of its h;ro
"h'ch IN this will be the sincere ora+it,,do
fof the hundreds who in the future will benof;t
from its efforts

since asked physicians to prescribe
RHEUMA for Rheumatism. The train

Anybody can afford to pay SO cents

That Bad Boy.

Jacob Riis says There amt no sech animal.
This surprising news was conveyed to the eugen-
lists at the Race Betterment Conference held In
Battle Creek last month and II 1t wore not SUI
ficient that one prominent authority should deny
the existence of bad boys, Dr. H. Addlngton
Bruce another authority and equally prominent,
has verified the statement of Mr. R1ls In an
article published by no less a magazine than the
Century.
OF course, Riis and Bruce have both seen bad
bovs and thew do not deny that the best of boys
is often guilty of the worst of deeds but they af-
firm this badness is not something built by ma
ture into the boys being but rather is something
permitted to take root there by ignorant parents
It is squarey on the shoulders of these same
parents that Dr. Bruce places the responsibility
for boy badness. What is needed" he writes,
respectfully in this complex civilization OF ours
with it's myriads of excitement and temptation,
is ivelier appreciation of the responsiveness
as we'll the privileges of parenthood And
parents need to appreciate that it is in the very
first years of their children's lives that the work
of character building should be begun"
To their overlooking the children's health he
attributes certain proportion of badness, a
point he illustrated by the case of the Cleveland
lad who suddenly developed from an almost
the reformatory failed to cure this lads recall
Icitrancy and he continued his depredations al
though every possible thing was done to win
him from the of his ways. But finally,
through lucky accident, physician CHANGED to
find the lads teeth followed out by assesses.
"Here,' said the doctor, lis the source of the
trouble. This lads body is being poisoned daily
by these decayed teeth And sure enough, after
the rotted teeth had been taken from his mouth,
he began steadily to improve and finally became
a normal, we'll behaved young man.
Among other factors in the formation of boy
character, Dr. Bruce lays special emphasis on
the general atmosphere of the home in which the
child spends its early years. He believes it is the
influence of the instructive and unconscious acts
of it's parents and other members of the family
which has most influence over the boys charac-
ter Compared with this steady, continual at
mosphersc pressure, the words of rebuke or of
pleading now and then have very little weight It
is what the home and the family say steadily and
continuously by acts, tone and temper that fash
ions the character of childhood
1t is very fine thing to have these brainy
men philosophizing about the bad boy and there
is no denying the truth of what they say: but
they will help great deal more if they will ex-
plain to us why many "bad'' boys manage to
blossom out into presidents, senators, inventors
artists and even first-class preachers

by President Kelly. Prof. Ebert Rus

effort to arouse the students to par

the duty of the students to cooperate
in the present campaign.

Rheumatic Cripple
Cured.

Mr.. Frank Il Rogers, of Momence, Ill =,
writes
Il take pleasure in highly recommend
ing DR.. Jones' Liniment. A year ago
was obliged to use clutches, having been
crippled with rheumatism. Doctors failed
to help me. Various remedies did no good.
I used several bottles of Dr.. Jones' Lini-
ment and recovered SO fully that went
back to my old job of firing locomotive.
DR.. Jones' Liniment is also excellent for
neuralgia"
Here is man who suffered great pain,
and was unable to work, which would dis
courage most anybody. How many men
and women are there, who finding no relief
after trying two or three remedies give up
in despair, and make life unpleasant for
themselves and those around them? Such
was not the case with Mr.. Rogers. He
kept on trying until he finally got the right
medicine and was cured.
DR.. Jones Linlment will do the same for
you.

LOCAL YACHT
RACERS Plan
FOR l9l5RACE

How about an entry from Hawaii in
the transpacific yacht race next year?
This is the question that amateur
tars are asking each other these days.
and no enc seems able to make even a
guess at the correct answer. The BIZ
enniaI San Pedro-Honolulu race was to
have been sailed this year but was
postponed one year and the starting
point changed to San Francisco to
make an added sporting attraction
of the Panama-Pacific exposition,
when yachtsmen from all the oceans
will be in San Francisco to take part
in the extensive program locally, and
the failure of the islands to furnish a
cup contender will be a sad fall-down
for the yachtsmen.
II seems to De generally accepted
as a fact that no money will be avail
able to build new racer for the event,
and If mid Pacific yachtsmen are to
have any say In the race, they will
have to put the old Hawaii into racing
trim and tune her up for still another
trip across the Pacific While the
yacht is veteran, she is as sound as
ever, and properly rugged might be
able to give good account Of herself.
There is some talk of crowding on
more canvas and putting in taller
sticks. for it is generally conceded
that this schooner has never carried
enough sal for racing in light airs.
AS she is rugged now the Hawaii Is
eminently fitted for cruising in the
North Atlantic. but for racing across
the Pacific in midsummer she could
crowd on lot more sail to advantage.
Members CT the Hawaii Yacht club
who take an active interest in the sport
believe that it VIII be possible to wake
public enthusiasm to the extent OF
raising monev for repairs and altera-
tions to the Hawaii in order that the
islands may DE represented in the big
race. There is no talk. however, of
raising the large sum necessary to
build new yacht for the ocean race
