WHAT THE PEOPLE READ

AS indicated in a statement re-
Gently given ont from the United
States bureau Of education, there are
now over $4,000 public libraries in
the United States and on the shelves
Of these storehouses of print there
are 75,0O0,000 volumes. This looks
like very liberal distribution of
literature until it is reflected that
there are now something over 10O,-
100000 OF people in the United
States, and then the circulating book
supply doesn't look quite so impress
sive. And when it is considered
further that there are some who read
fifty books year and good many
who browse through from ten to
twenty volumes, it is made plain that
there are probably yet many who dc,
not read one book year.
Another pamphlet recently issued
by the Wisconsin free library COM
mission throws better illumination
upon the reading habits of average
American communities. An investi-
cation made through librarians,
school teachers and other reliable
agencies and covering the Middle
West and a part of New York state.
disclosed the astonishing fact that
half the homes in this territory are
absolutely without books. Another

disclosure, not so surprising, is that
all disseminators of literature. There
are thousands and thousands of
homes of just one book and that,
prepared affair, made to sell to peo-
pie only slightly inoculated with the
reading habit.
In these days the price OF litera-
ture does not set standard of
quality. But cheap literature, cheap
not in the cost but the quality of it,
seems to be of very general distri-
button in Americans homes.-Balti-
more American.

HOWL AT ONE, PALATE THE
OTHER

Nevada is prone to howl at Cali
fornia because that state is charged
with draining Nevada of most of its
loose change, but how about the
money that the mail order houses {
Chicago alone draw from this state.
In the aggregate that amounts to
a lot more than what goes to the
state to the west and the returns
are decidedly less, for some of the
California money comes back here
for investment.

"ONCE OVERS"

Sarcasm is not an indication Of
brilliancy, as some people seem 10
think.
The person who makes habitual use
OF sarcasm has something wrong in
his mental equipment 1t hurts, sar-
casm does.
The one who can wilfully cause
another pain, mental or physical, is
not right.
There is brutal streak in the sar-
castle individual.
Mental anguish is the most acute
suffering one may experience.
There is more pain from The
thrust of a, sharp tongue, than from
a knife thrust.
The latter may end all of this life.
but sarcasm, the weapon of the
sharp tongue, sometimes has sting
which is even worse than death
Why tolerate those who delight in
the pain they can cause others?
Sarcastic people, those who make
a general practice of its use, deserve
what they become. sooner or later
social outcasts.

BABY QUESTION
IN ENGLAND IS
SERIOUS ONE
Wide Divergence of Opinion as
to Whether Birthrate Should
Be Increased.

Correspondence of Associated Press.)
LONDON. Dec. 11-Strikingiy
contradictory opinions were expressed
at 4 recent meeting of the Royal San
itary Institute concerning whether the
threatened decrease OF babies. as q
result OF the war. should be regarded
as calamity or u blessing.
The subject discussed was labelled
The National and Social Aspects OF
the Lowered Birth-Rate." Some Of
the speakers demanded that the gov
eminent should take the matter in
hand and de everything possible 20
encourage and popularize maternity.
Others--thought 1t should be stated
they were In minority-held that
the fewer babies born. for sometime
TO come at least. the better 1t would
be for the country. Two speakers
may be cited as representative OF
these divergent views.
Sir John Cockburn urged the need
OF greater inducements to raise the
birth-rate. Maternity, he said, now
involved too heavy tax on the poorer
classes. He would have the govern
ment provide houses on liberal
scale for maternity and make a sub
stantial reduction in the income tax
for each child born. We need" he
declared. ito review the medieval
view which regarded sterility as a
curse"
DR.. Dunlop boldly took the Mathu-
sian view. He looked forward, he
declared. with cheerfulness, to al
further reduction OF the birthrate.
The encouragement of parental
prudence" among the poor was
urgently needed ut the present mo-
ment. He foretold serious rise in
the death rate and great poverty In
the next year or two. and II the
thoughtful and scientific people were
so blind that they did not speak out.
1t would be far better for many chill
dren that they had never been born.
The only hope OF avoiding great hard
ships in the hrst few years after the
war was by very sharp fall in the
blrthrate now.

GET RID OF HumoRs =
AND AVOID SICKNESS

Humors in the blood cause inter.
nal arrangements that affect the
whole system, as well as pimples,
boils and other eruptions, and are
responsible for the readiness with
which many people contract disease.
For forty years Hoods Sarsapa-
rilla has been more successful than
any other medicine in expelling
humors and removing their inward
and outward effects. Get Hoods.
No other medicine acts like it.
