English Middle Glass.

Correspondence Of Associated Press
London, Jan. Sir H. Rider Hag-
gard, the author. believes the middle
classes of England are on the road
o ruin" This opinion he expressed
in a letter to the general secretary
If the Middle Glasses Union, regret
ting that other work prevented him
from assuming tn" presidency of a
branch of the union.
Il sympathize fully with your move
ment," he wrote. The middle class
es, by which 1 take to mean all be-
meath the rank Of Peers who do not
actually earn their living by the work
Of their hands are, without doubt on
the road to ruin. Owing principally,
or at any rate very largely TO the in
credible expense of rearing and edu-
eating children their birthrate is de-
creasing in a most alarming fashion
and probably exceeded by their death
rate"
He declared that against these
classes the profiteer is given a free
hand and that under pretence Of a
nebulous anti-dum ping bill, they are
now threatened with the loss of the
blessings Of free trade which alone
enables many with fixed. or dwindling
incomes, to live at ALL He said that
only combination to protect them
selves and their interests could save
them.
IF the middle classes remain dis
united and in consequence are bull
lied and plundered to death, as hap
pen, TO the Curiales before the fall
Of II, Roman empire, / am sure that
with them will disappear the wealth
and the ancient greatness of our
country" he concluded.

A Dangerous coa.er for Children.

Since excavations have been made

needed apartment house at the corn

too much care can not be exercised in

the busiest man is zero compared with
the safety Of a single child.
