Now that tbe F’ederal authori-
ties have completed an extensive
Investigation costing many thousand
dollars in the interest of saving
the hops of tbe country from the
ravages of hog cholera, they have
turned (heir attention to the seem-
ingly secondary matter of import-
ance involved in- the conservation of
the lives of children.
Prey# dispatches contain the
rbeerful announcement that the
Fnited States Department of La
her, acting through its children's,
bureau, has undertaken a series
of investigation* of infant mortality
in industrial cities of the country.
Tbt restflr of its inquiry in Johns-
town.- Pa., established the appalling
tact that th* death rat# among in-
fants of poor parentage in that city
wa# .271 per thousand. A sjgoifi
cant feature of the report ‘ Is that
which discloses that the death rate1
among breast-fed babies-was 46.6
per thousand, while among artifici-
ally-fed babies of tbe same age. the
death rate was more than 165 per
thousand.
The farts disclosed in this
initial report establish that the
government has acted none too
hastily in transferring It* humane
work of saving hogs to that of con-
serving the lives of babies of tbe
country. The preventable ‘‘slaugh-
ter of the innocent*" which has
teen permitted b> the sappiness of
the government is a reproach to
civilization and a blot upon the
fair name of the nation. Is there
any reason why the government
should feel greater solicitude for
the health of animal* than (hat of
the children of Its citizens? If
there is not, why should It expend
thousand* in safe-guarding the
health of the former and practical-
ly nothing in protecting the tetter?

that his daughter was not of age and
warned each and all that if any of
them married ter he would do so at
hi* peril. The dominies knew that Mr.
Llumfston was a man not to be trifled
with, and should they offend him he
could never again be approached for a
subscription
One day a young man with a |ie«chj
complexion and a full black beard, car-
rying a satchel, entered the main rail-
road station of the place and called
for a ticket tor Ridgewood, a station
without tbe town limits. Before the
train left a tall lady, veiled, entered
tbe same station and also bought a
ticket for Ridgewood. The ti-ket agent
noticed that there was something about
the young man’s appearance that
caused him to wonder who and what
he was. He knew every one In thy
town and had uever seen such a per-
son there before. As the man walked
away from the window the agent no-
ticed that he had a ra-culter gnit. The
young man picked up a newspaper at
a stand and. entering ’he train, took
a seat beside the vetoed lady, then.
Opening his paper, te'can to read.
Nt a-, it happened that the conductor
of ti e train was otic of Mr .Flumistun's
paid spies. When the train stopped at
a station still witbiu the city limits
be sent a telephone message to XIr.
HumKton, whom he caught in his of-
fice, that there was » strange looking
couple aboard the train and suggested
last |tew from the altar. The tall wo-
man and the short man were waiting
near the chancel I'resently u side
door opened, and a clergyman In vest-
ments 001011*1. took tits position on tho
chancel, and the couple stood before
hlnv ,
Mr.'Humlston heaved a sigh of re-
lief. After all. this was the couple that
was to be married, and they did not
answer to the description of Snlltc and
Billy at all. He did not wait for the
conclusion of the ceremony, but sped
home in his car. * a
Sallle had not returned. While he
was asking questions about her the
doorbell rang, and be was banded a
telegram. Opening it, he read:
Ridgewood.
Married. Do forgive us, papa.
8AU.tR-
Mr. Humlston crushed the message
In his hand and growled. But before
many miuutes had eluded anxiety got
the better uf him to know how tin-
couple had succeeded it, fooling him
He gave the telegraph messenger a
dispatch containing tils forgiveness and
told him to send it to the Ridgewood
telegraph office. It Brought the newly
married couple home lit time for pin
ner. The little man with the Black
