POVERTY AND CHARITY.
Charity is a disease as contagious as
measles and spreads from door to door.
This is the opinion of Mr. J. J, Kelso,
superintendent of negleoted and depen-
dent children for Ontario, a man who
has had much experience in dealing
with the subjects of poverty. He cion -
tends that if all charity were suspended,
although there would 'be some hardship,
this would only exist until those affect-
ed learned that work was the only way
in which help could be obtained.
The opinion of Mr. Kelso in regard to
the children of worthless parents is that
charity for their sake often educates the
children as idlers and beggars.-. He is in
favor of compelling the parents to sup-
port the children in a proper manner or
taking the children from them, the pre-
sumption being that if each parents had
any affection for the children they
would prefer going to work to being
deprived of their offspring.
Mr. Kelso, whose experience entitles
his opinions to weight, may be right,
although the majority of people will be
inclined to think that he is 'somewhat
extreme in his views. There can be no
doubt however, that the best kind of
charity is that whioh educates people to
help themselves. The Ottawa Oistlzen
conceding that Mr. Kelso may possibly
be right in his ideas of the relationship
of charity and pauperism says:
"But obviously the question is not
thereby solved. The real problem ie to
ascertain the cause of those conditions
necessitating charity. Charity is im-
mediate relief and as snob .may be
abused, and undoubtedly is, but well
disposed persons oannot suspend their
kind offices to investigate aooiologioal
problems nor will they.
"Mr. Kelso advocates a well -thought -
oat and organized plan for providing
work for those in need, not •necessarily
high paid work, but with anfficient
remuneration to sustain life until more
permanent employment oan be abtaiued.
Under suoh a plan, provision would be
made for the infirm and siok.
"Mr. Kelso is facing a great problem
—one ages old and one that goes right
to the roots of oar civilization. Work
for all is the dream of some' of the most
earnest workers in the world. The
problem of why thousands starve while
others roll in plenty is pressing today as
it has pressed for centuries. It is the
solation of this problem that is the ideal
of the highest political science,"
The instinct of the hunting dog re-

deputy game warden's dog came to a
"point" at the coffin, and presently
began to paw at the box. It was then
discovered there were 500 partridges in
that coffin. '

THE C9TY ®F pOfyIP�IL
Profoundly Interesting to the Scien-
tist, From Every Point of View.
Strangely, weirdly fascinating is
Pompeii. Its narrow streets, so many
centuries ago gay with the life of a
Roman pleasure resort, to -day echo
to the sound of footsteps, so that
one instinctively treads quietly, as
in a place of mystery. But a little
imagination is needed to picture this
haunted city as it was when the aris-
tocrats of. Rome, including the great
Cicero, occupied villas in its suburbs;
when it was famed as a place
of
trade, and a community of wealth
and luxury. One thinks always of
udnderof the blest of skies ine in l�emenwhen
and
women danced and feasted and there
were only the sounds of laughter and
singing. An English artist, however,
contrary to custom, has sought to
show us that Pompeii was much like
other cities—like cities of to -day for
that matter, and that it was not un-
acquainted with the dreariness of
• rain and deserted streets.
The artist's conception, is described
freely by Pierre Gusman, who says :
"Besides the footways there ran a
stream which collected the water
from the andtan yards
and fell into kitchens a gutterthe beneath the
footways. A great deal o$ refuse must
have fallen into the stream, but this
difficulty was met by an abundant
supply of water all along the footway
from aqueducts now destroyed. It
was carried by numerous leaden pipes
(on many of which may still be read
the Claudii'jethe of
intosto eaorrmarble foun-
tains. From these fountains the wat-
er ran in all directions, Bushing
the
street and falling itt last into large
openings beneath the footway or at
the end of streets, ending in a cute
de -sac.' There was a very good water
supply for domestic purposes, and
every house had its own tap. It
Pom-
peiians
would arena, however, thathe
must have been ol'1iged to
wade ankle-deep in mud, even on a
fine day, when they crossed the road.
But this was not the ease. At once
indolent and practical, the citizens
avoided this discomfort by laying
down one, two or three fiat stepping
stones at the same height as the
footway at equal distances from one
another. In many streetsthe heavy
antique chariots, passing e
over the same track, have worn ruts
in the flagstones deeper than those
