Addressing the member of on organ isation called the Mothers and Fathers club last Monday evening In Chicago on the subject, "Child Culture." Mary A. Livermor took issue with President Roosevelt and President Eliot on the race suicide question. She said: "We need to listen more to talk about the culturg of fathers and mother than we do to the culture of the child, it seem to me. There are two mighty factors that enter Into the making of In dividual and of nations. These facts are hereditary and convincing. There are men and women who are unfit to be the parents of chlldsen. At the present time we have to depend upon tnvironment. In many cases it is bet ter to take children away from their . natural parents so that they may have a chance to do better. The need is not more children, but better ones. It would not be race suicide if we were to have more homes Into which only two or three children were born. Quality and character signify more than a horde," ' - This utterance strikes a truer note than most of the mass of criticism provoked by the president's speech contains. So long as humanity re mains heir to the passions which have held sway since apples got ripe in Eden there will be no lack of progeny of some description which will perpetu ate a race. Whether that progeny be the offspring of the well-to-do, at whom President Roosevelt aimed his remarks, or the children of the multitude who eagerly accepted the approval and the license hi speech conveyed probably matters little. History shows that eprouts from the latter have furnished as good and great citizens as scions of the former. The evil .which the president sought to deprecate of childlessness among the classes Is not greater than that complained of by Mrs. Livermore of too much license among the masses. As she suggests, it would be far better if quantity could be sacrificed for quality, for a few generations at least, but that would be Just as Impossible as would be the regulation of the classes. A man is not privileged to take from his neighbor a loaf of broad, to borrow a postage stamp from the government, or to cast two votes at an election but he can endow another human being or a dozn of them with the results of years of vice and profligacy; with dis ease which will Wight their lives for ever: with a tendency to crime which will inSuie a thousand lawless acts; and then he Is privileged to bring them up In the same school of vice and crime In which he was developed. -. The sweet sentiment of the innocence of childhood and the honors of matern ity lose their charm and their worthi ness In some of the specimens which are inflicted upon an unoffending earth.

He is not only the victim of his parentage but la completely at the mercy of hi surroundings for a period of year after birth. Woe be unto the audacious perpetrator of an outrage, who dare to bring Into thl cold world an Immor tal being without ample provision for a proper endowment of health and vir tue, and provision for Its nurture and training, soj that it will have a fair chance In the world and the world will have a fair chance with It.

Many English doctors are now. con vinced that the eating of pig's flesh In ... J differentforms is greatly responsible for the Increase of cancer. They point nut that it is most common among the poor, whose chief meat is that of pigs, while the disease is extremely rare among the Jews. - It has been estimated by an expert in the employ of the government that .tgric ultural machinery reduces the number of men employed to do a geven amount of work to one-third, while manufacturing machinery reduces the number to one-fiftieth.
