April 2.--There are thoso who are pessimistic enough to declare' thlt We live in an age which, instead of beinl’ better, is in many respects worse than those that preceded lt. I have always maintained that this theory is fallaclous, that it is because I TERE TI ii iwouln Puicr mill until In su Most of the Cancoction Sold in Paris Would Not Be Recognized by any Self-Respecting Cow PARIS- Abrll 2.-After prohibiting tea, coffee, and chocolate on the ground ‘hat lhel' encourage gout, I-‘rc-nch hygienists have now placed their ban on milk. What is sold as such is said to be u concoction not to lie recog- mz"‘-I Ill' Hill' S€If‘\'05lN.‘cling cow. In the case of the genuine article-which is declared hardly to exist--even if the our ideals have grown that we are, apt to see the flaws all the more dis-f tlnctly in the various systems whichf have always attempted for the better~i ment of the world. lflo man can read, "Oliver Twist" without realizing that the old Poor Law as administered by Bumble was an iniquity which words- fs.il to describe, but when Dickens, who was the greatest phllanthropist oi’ our time, and who, by his genius, did more to better conditions than any-I one living, described the workhouse and its terrors, the country woke up' to see that something was wrong, and much was done to ameliorate, but much remained to be done. ` A great deal Q the work that was undertaken then was only patching, and when we drew bs_c'.< the curtain and looked into the real state of the' patiper. we became aware that we 'had only touched the fringe of the ques- tion_ Sitting Two Years A commission, however, has been sitting for two years. and seldom has? the report of a royal commission been received with such interest and ap- proval al that on the Poor law, which has just been made public. The mass of evidence which has been collectedg on the subject forms a classic on pov-i erty, but the significant thing about' the report is that it deals a death blow! to the Guardian. and Bumbledon is dead forever. The system was wrong; let it go. The most important part of the new recommendations is t-he sul:-division of the pauper class, the dealing with the deserving poor in such a manner as to retain their self-respect, and with the loafers and cadgers in such n. way as to force them to work. The scheme was; si-gned under two heads, the majority, report. Among the names on the min- ority report was that of Mrs, Sidney VVebb, who with her husband has, worked for the amelioration of the Poor law for many years, and \vho is an expert on the subject. More uttcn-5 tion will probably be paid to thi=..slgna- ture of the minority owing to the fact that Mr. and Mrs. Webb had prepared it book embodying the differences that the minority suggested, which was published on the some day as the re- port of the Commission. und therefore their practical and widespread knowl- edge will be given in concrete form. Mnny Comrrflttees The principal point En the report is the reclassification or the lui-\ltutlons.| It recommends that children should he dealt with by tthe education authorities. the sick by the health authorities. the insane by the asylum committees- “Hd cases of distress by distress commit-_ tees, and so on.
