MUNICIPAL PHILANTHROPY
- BY P. j. O'KeIIy
Providing spirit, kindly send
The unemployed worthy friend,
Whereby home they may enjoy,
In plenteous way and time,
Take them from the cruel breadline,
And from the floors on which they lie.
Free them from municipal care,
And the thoughts of black despair,
Nightly filling many breast
Save them from the environment,
Circumstances on them sent,
Eliminating peace and rest.
Municipal lodgings are blight
To human beings, and the sight
Far beyond description.
A shapeless mass lies on the ground,
Emitting noise of human sound,
The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1915-04-12

Some may sleep, most cannot,
But all happy to have the spot
Just wherein they fell.
Unkempt, unclean and unfed,
Visualized a scene once read
Of the lost in Dante's hell.
The night got shelter there,
Bum officials paused to swear,
Without discrimination.
They asked when l was there before,
And questioned until got sore,
At needless humiliation.
Then when 1 dropped on the floor,
l heard the order to shut the door,
The only ventilation.
A cattle pen was given free,
Resulting from philanthropy,
A modern civilization.
Daylight saw me sore and hazy,
Sick, tired, nearly crazy,
For could not clearly think.
Officials swore up all at five,
Warning us to look alive,
And to the basement stink.
Misery down there was fed,
Sour coffee and stone-like bread,
And one serving only given.
The boosted land of milk and honey,
Rich resources and boarded money,
Could not afford decent living.
Are there men we can elect,
In a cause to effect
The needed amelioration.
We create the wealth, we demand re-
lief,
From system causing grief.
Where is emancipation?
Putout the cash, avert depression,
We have no use for retrogression,
Or industrial stagnation.
Achievement is the proper aim,
Power and prestige won the name
America premier nation.

"hayseed." there will be a bevy of
pretty girls in charge. Unlike this
other store where two clerks antici-
pate your wants. however. there will
be eight pretty clerks in charge. The
chief clerk (this title is used because
there are no chaperons at real coun-
try s%tores) will be Mrs. L. f. Johnson.
Many of the articles that will be
placed on sale a been made by the
women themselves. For three weeks
forty members of the Civic Club have
been meeting several times weekly to
sew articles for sale Saturday. This
afternoon the women met at the home
of Mrs. Charles A.. Alden.
The carnival will be held to raise
money for the Visiting Nurse fund of
the Civic Club.

HOW SOLDIERS LIVE AND FIGHT
IN THE TRENCHES

London, May 1S.-When It rains the
trenches are half filled with water.
The cold is always of the damp, pene-
trating, dreadful kind that chills to the
very marrow. Hot food Is served three
times a day to the men in the trenches
by other soldiers, who scurry like rab-
bits through long uncovered tunnels
running back from the works conceal
ing the guns.
These men in the trenches must
have good food in order that they can
have good blood. and If they have
good blood, they have good courage,
thew keep warm because their clrcu-
|lation is good and their extremities are
warm from exercise. Many men are
Iinvalided, however, because their blood
and their stomach were not right to
withstand the awful hardships of this
winter campaign.
When you do not properly digest
your food your blood becomes thin
and every organ of the body soon feels
the effect. The result is-headache,
sieeplessness, and many
other symptoms-due to accumulation
of poisons in the body. Unless the
stomach is given aid at this stage
more serious illnesses follow. Now is
the time to help your weakened stom-
ach-now is the time to take DR..
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery Tin
tablet or liquid form). 1t has the
same power to set you right as it has
been proved to have in thousands OF
other cases. 1t will help your stomach
so that the food you eat will nourish
and sustain you n make good re-
viving blood. 1t will enable you to
get rid of the waste a sluggish liver
and irregular bowels have permitted
to accumulate in your system.
DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discov-
cry is composed of known native heal
ing remedial roots and herbs with no
alcohol nor narcotic drugs to give you
harmful habits. 1t can now be OBJ
tanned in tablet or liquid form from
dealers, or send so stamps for box of

he says will be kept in reserve for
portable purposes. This is for the
purpose of testing out lights on vari-
Gus transformers, for as Mr.. Diehl re-
ports, the lights located on one trans
former may be entirely satisfactory
while those located on another may
be entirely unsatisfactory owing to a
local condition" Upon complaint of
variation in voltage, the portable me-
ter is attached at point of complaint
and a reading taken for twenty-four
hours or more. Daily records are
taken, Mr.. Diehl states, and are kept
on file as required by the ordinance.
There is a prevalent idea that the
installation of these meters will nave
some bearing upon electric light bills"
reports Mrs Uiehl. This may be true
but in all probability not in a way
that will be pleasing to the consumer
when looked at from a financial
standpoint. Tests show that 1uctua-
tons in voltage are below rather than
above normal. The amount of current
consumed is directly proportional to
the voltage and if there las been fiuc-
tuation from the normal to- Q lower
point, and this results in holding the
voltage at normal, increase in current
must result. The con1Imer. however,
will be recompensed by a better and
steadier light"
