GREAT VOLUMES OF HISTORY

is dry reading. AS a rule this is true,
but the readers of Josephus Nelson
Larned's great History of the World"
will find it one of the few works of
the kind that reads like a novel This
is due to the authors clarity OF style,
and his natural genius for narrative.
He is one Of the few historians who
seem to be born for that special voca-
ton. He has told in his history the
story Of 1000 years of the life of man
kind, and told it well. It is safe to say
that one who has read Larned can go
anywhere and hold his own with people
of learning and education. It is an in
valuable work and should find its way
into D. library Of every reader Of this
paper. The coupon offer printed else
where in tOday's issue, explains how
easy it is to get this wonderful work.

OF the larger cities as much as 10 to
80 per cent. of the whole supply is
~pasteurized. About 80 per cent. of
the cities with over loo, 900 popula-
ton have half or more of their supply
pasteurized.
A comparison of the milk supply
conditions in 1912 those prevail
ing ten years previous is facilitated
by a study made in 1902 by Alvod
and Pearson of the United States de-
|partment of agriculture. Briefly
some of the principal changes
In ten years appear to be:
An increase in the retail price of
milk has occurred in all parts of the
States and averages 2 to 3
cents a quart. .
The municipal regulation Of milk
supply in the United States at present
seems to lack little in the way of legal
authorization of support by en-
frightened public opinions. Dairy in
spection, bacterial control and prop
er grading seems to have been carried
farther in this country than anywhere
else.

IMPORTANCE OF PURE MILK.

Milk is a well-nigh universal food
Its value depends on its purity at the
time IL reaches the consumer. For
this reason the regulation by cities of
the production, transportation, hand
ling and distribution of milk is CON-
ing to be regarded as a most impor-
.tant municipal duty. In a recent is
sue of the journal of American Medi-
cal association, Prof. E. o. Jordan of
the University of Chicago reports the
results of a study of milk regulation
in 173 of the 229 cities in the United
States of $4,000 population or over.
This study shows that the require
ment of a permit or license is practi-
cally universal in all cities of Owe
$4,000 Inhabitants. This Is the first
step toward proper control. When
the New York Board of Health ad-
opted an ordinance requiring all per-
sons dealing In milk to secure a per-
NIT, the right vas contested and car
ried to the supreme court of the
United States. That tribune sustain
ed the ordinance as a reasonable ex-
ercise of police power. Dairy farm
inspection of some sort is carried on
by the great majority af cities. This
varies in efficiency. The frequency
of inspection ranges from "once in a
year or TWO" and when necessary"
10 regular monthly examinations.
Dairy-farm inspection is more regu-
larly and more effectively carried out
by cities with a population Of over
l00,0 00 than by smaller municipali-
ties. One third of the cities require
that the tuberculin test be applied to
herds furnishing milk. Bacterial
standards for raw milk have been es-
tablished by the large majority of
cities with over loo, 200 population.
The cities with $4,000 to $4,000
population are much more generally
without bacterial standard, largely,
doubtless because of the lack of suit
able laboratory facilities for enforc-
ing such a requirement.
The process of pasteurizatior Is
much more extensively employed In
some cities than in others. In some

ATTRACTION OF
THE PAY ROLL
GILBERT HUBBARD SAYS THIS,
AND GOVERNMENT HOSTILITY
TO BUSINESS ARE CAUSES OF
HARD TIMES.

What Is the matter with this
country?-Secretary Redfeld, of the
department of commerce, has asked
congress for an appropriation of four
hundred thousand dollars In order
to ascertain what Is the matter with
this country.
The only thing that ails this coun-
try is contraction of the payroll.
The cause of the contraction is the
continued irritation of business by
the government.
Just now o%ne-fourth of the wage
in American are not draw
ing wages. because they are not at
work.
When you attack men who main
tain p~ayrolls, you hit the wage-earn-
er, kick his wife, and cuff his child
rem.
The government action against the
United Shoe Machinery company was
followed by the discharge of fifteen
hundred employees.
The action against the Eastman
Kodak company was followed by the
laying off of several thousand hands.
Every government action against a
corporation tends to destroy enter
prise and puncture pay envelopes.

Withholding of a small necessary adj
vance In rates. have been followed by

from New York to San Francisco.
These cancellations. and the action
of the government against the United
States Steel corporation. probably
threw two hundred thousand men out
of work.
Keep up this prosecution and per-
secution of men who set other men to
work at profitable employment, and
there will be no business left.
And II there is no business there
will then be no government. because
government exists only on what the
world OF workers produces.

and no one but lawyers has ever
benefited from it.
1t is a sort of Letter of Marque and
Reprisal whereby attorneys may en-
gage in legalized piracy. Its only de-
tenders are lawyers.
The first thing to do, in order that
the yelling water of prosperity may
flow, is to repeal the Sherman act.
Confidence can only be restored by
telling businessmen frankly and
plainly what they will be allowed to
do and what not. The uncertainty
Of the Sherman act puts the whole
thing on a par with the Lettre de
Cachet and the secret arrest. 1t Is a
blow in the dark.
The first requisite in civilization is
that the people shall be probably en-
ployers of labor. and not harass and
worry them. And until this occurs
the payroll is going to suffer more
and more, until want, woe and misery
walk the streets, and red revolution
sufices in. where onee industry,
peace and plenty smiled.
The ruin that the Roman Emperor
Diocletian wrought by his edicts in
control of trade are being repeated
here through laws passed by
politicians.
The defamation of successful bust
nessmen by a degenerate press has
been done to boom circulation, just
as. village gossips blast and wither
regulations to attract attention To
themselves.
Then politicians have taken up the
mIckrakers' cry in the expectation Of
gaining votes.
1t has been assumed that all com
binations In business were In
restraint of trade, and organiza,
tons had but one purpose; to wit: to
increase the cost of commodities to
the uillHldIe consumer.
The fact Is, big business always and
forever does three things. 1t betters
the product, it increases wages, II
stimulates consumption.
BY supplying profitable and steady
employment it gives buying power to
the wage Garner, and everybody there.
by thriyes.
To picture businessmen as greedy,
grasplng grafters is quite ON a par
with the view we get in vaudeville of
the supposed typical %Irishman. Ger
man or lew.
Businessmen who succeed, nova
days, tell the truth and walk thu

goods" late hours. tyrannical
methods and Indifference to the well
fare of employees and public, spell
quick bankruptcy.
And the bigger the business. the
more the health. happiness and pros
perity OF the workers are considered.
To kill enterprise and destroy in
itiative is easy.
To create, build. transport,
distribute-these things only come
about through able and patient
leadership-not through political
palaver.
Are We wise in suppressing our
men who possess commercial genius.
and who maintain payrolls?
The present widespread depression
in trade says, No! Mo-, MOL!

TO SELL BABY
TO RELIEVE FAM|LY'S
FINANCIAL NEEDS


And when | found that | must speak,
My Voice seemed strangely low and
weak:
Tell me again what Robert said"
And then |, listening, bent my head.
This is his letter:
A house and land where you shall
live,
Ii In return, from out your seven,
One child to me for aye is given"
Ethel L~ynn-Beers.
From her tiny tenement home in
Brooklyn, Mrs. Macmillan Seufert,
thirty-seven years old, mother of
eight children made this offer
through the New York American:
Il hereby offer TO give my young
est child, Henrietta Alma Seufert, ten
months old, to good people for
adoption. She is perfectly healthy.
with blue eyes and light hair and a
wonderfully CHEEKY disposition. APP
plicants for the baby will please ad-
dress ME through the New York Am
erican.
1T is either a question of having
all eight children with my husband
and myself put out on the street
when our rent comes due on Febru-
airy \ or of giving up the baby for
some consideration. We are forced
to take this step because my husband
Is out of work for an indefinite
period, he having broken his knee
cap in an accident on December IS
last"
The terrible situation presented in
simple words by Mrs. Seufert forms
an almost exact living parallel of
that presented by Mrs. Ethel Lynn
Beers poem entitled (Which Shall 1t
Be-"
In the poem a rich man who has
nc children proposed to his needy
relatives to take one of their seven
promising TO make the parents and
the other six children comfortable for
life. The parents go to the bedsides
of their sleeping children and vainly
seek to choose the one they will give
UP.
So for many tear-laden hours, Mr..
and Mrs. Seufert sought to decide
which of their eight little ones they
could consent to part with.
"Our youngest boy. Frederick. is
two" said Mrs. Seufert. a catch in
her voice. I'VE couldn't part with
him.
"Our Julia is only four. She needs
Us as much as we need her.
wilhelm is six. He has his
fathers eyes. We just couldn't part
with him.
christina is only eight. but her
every thought Is for others.
"Our Mary is ten and such a dear,
lovely child" said Mrs. Seufert with
a sigh.
MAX, Jr., is twelve and the image
of his father. 1t would kill us to
part with him. There were only
Henry. thirteen. and the baby left.
We finally decided upon the baby be-
cause the baby will never know and
perhaps God will let us forget. We
have been hoping and praying that
my husband will get work, but now
the accident has prevented this and
there Is no other way"
The baby, unmindful of the
problem that lay locked in her tiny
breast, cooed at her mother and
