A BURDENED PEOPLE


According TO a count made in the
library Of congress recently, our fed
eral and state legislatures passed e.
Ola statutes during the five years
from 1909 to 1913 inclusive. Even
greater than this multiplicity Of laws
was the vast mass of decisions Of
court Of last resort, federal and state,
which during the same FIVE years
reached the enormous total Of 65,379
and now fiji $40 volumes.
And yet ignorance Of the lawn
thousand volumes does not excuse.
III our day Of statute mailing by che
rapid-fre process, Thomas Jefferson
would have found greater reason for
declaring that the country ID govern-
ed best that is governed least, and for
opposing multiplicity Of laws. Not
re least discouraging feature Of It
I'll is that our Statesmen Of the rul-
ira progressive variety have count
less new laws still up their sleeves,
rot 4 few Of them revolutionary IN
pasions Of the citizens rights.
# our laws are legion now, what is
to be expected when, ii times to come;
women are sent to legislative bodies

siasticallv apply themselves 10 piling
up the statutes. Their efforts x

a thousand virtues by means Of the
policeman's club, seem to be onainous-
ly foreshadowed by Mrs. Panlhurst's
confession that women want the bal
lot in order TO make men chaste. +"
It may be confidently expected that
women, more than men, viii become
addicted to the habit of making new
laws aimed at every evil or neon
yenience in sight, thus adding enor-
mously to the great mass Of statutes
which-withou previous discussion
and criticism Of the proper kind
have been enacted in haste, only to
be repealed Or forgotten as dead let
tiers.

Old people, tired, weak,

those recovering from severe
illness, this is a fact.
Thousands of genuine tes-
timonials from reliable PEG,

further support the fact and
prove our faith in what we
