'hus made free they may be able to
lave the weak and the poor who are
now the victims of mans unbridled
lust.
These victims are now without
protection and, once they are fallen,
there seems no hope for them but
refuge in self-destruction or the
slower suicide of commercialized
vice. 1 feel the greatest pity for the
women victims Of the institution and
the greatest contempt and indigna-
ton for the men who have allowed
such conditions to exist for so long
a time.
There is no excuse whatever for
the existence Of the male prostitute.
He is not driven to it by poverty or
Weakness but by his lack of con-
science and moral education. If it is
not possible to reform him he should
be punished by imprisonment for life,
because he always precedes and
makes the female offender
However, as long as conditions
exist, as they are in our monopoly
controlled civilization, prohibitory
laws can do little to cure or remove
any evil. The only hope for the CON
tinuation of humanity and its prog
ress toward better things lies in the
establishments of equal freedom, the
abolition of poverty-and want from
the earth and the education Of all the
people in the evils caused by the
violation of the moral law.
There can be no progress as long
as men are allowed to deprive women
of their equal freedom and prevent
them from participating in the maxi
ing of laws and enforcing them

POVERTY OF WEALTH.
There Are Many, Many Things That
Money Cannot Buy

II you have wealth you can purchase
a hundred outfits Of wearing apparel
but you can only wear one at a time.
Socrates never owned but one pair Of
shoes, but his name Is immortal. II
you have wealth you can purchase
beautiful paintings aId ad0rn your
home with statues. That wouldn't
bring you happiness. If you have
wealth you can purchase furniture IN
laid with gold and upholstered with
fine fabrics. That doesn't mean con
tentment
If you have wealth you can purchase
a great park and erect Il splendid man
sion, but tradition tells rs that there
was a very happy man who lived in
tub and when the king came Ia see
him and asked what he could desire
from the king Diogenes replied, That
you would step from between me and
the sun" II You have wealth YOU can
possess an organ with golden pipes
but Beethoven composed his immortal
symphonies on a cheap harpischord. II
you have wealth you can equip a lux
urious studio. but Turner painted in
garnet and mixed his colors in a broken
teacup.
Money can purchase copies Of Sir
Joshua Reynolds. but God gives the
sunset away free. Money can employ
musicians 10 perform for a private con
cert, but the song Of the lark in the
tree and the music OF chiidren's laugh
ter Is for the millionaire and the poor
man alike. Wealth cannot purchase
the great things Of life. Ii cannot buy
a contented mind and serene life. 1t
cannot purchase goodness and beauty.

THE SIZE OF ATOMS.
Far Smaller Than Anything Ne Car
See, Feel, Taste or Smell.

In ways too intricate to be described
here we have little by little got some
knowledge Of the probable size OF
atoms. They must indeed be exceed
ingly small For example, in a tea
spoonful Of water we have good reason
to believe that there are very nearly q
million million million million atoms

That number is so tremendously big
that IL Is beyond our ability 10 imagine
It. even though we can write ii down.
1t means. If course, that the atom IS
far smaller than anything we can see
or feel or taste or smelI. Indeed, the
atom must be so small that if We i'm
agine a tennis BAN maguided 10 be
forty miles in diameter the atoms in 1t
would then be- no larger than grains Of
fine sand one oue-hundredth OF an inch
ia diameter.
Only TWO or three Of the kinds Of
atoms that we now know on earth ap-
pear 70 be capable Of splitting up into
smaller ones.
OF these atoms radium is the most
striking example. Its atoms seem to
De steadily going to pieces at such
rate that Of an ounce Of radium only
half an ounce would be left after leo
years So far as we know. the half
that was lost would have turned finally
into a sort Of lead, together with
strange gas called helium Each
atom Of radium perhaps yields one
atom Of lead and five II helium. More
