ne Mccompaiued John i)ow, Jr.; through
department after department..
"How many people do yon employ?"
. "Nearly 800 on our pay roll - men and
boys."
"Keeps you pretty close. 1 suppose

trary, niy father goes away whenever
he desires a change: 1 go off every .fall,
hunting and fishing stay away two and
three weekx been away six: and the
shop never missed us."
Doctor Jayne's look of wonder in
vited the explanation, given with par
donable pride. ...
System - method, doctor. If i do
aay it myself, Dr. Jayne, yon wont find
a factory in the country, giving employ
ment to as . many hands, where every
thing runs as smoothly as at Dow's.
We do everything methodically here
all the departments divided npon system
atic lines, regulated like clockwork.'
"Yes." saiii the doctor, "l have been
told a thousand miles away from home
that ; Dow is regarded as the model es
tablishment of the country."
"The only way to run a factory," said
Dow. Jr., in a matter of fact way that
impressed the doctor, who was making
a ronnd of the workshops in quest of in
formation he deemed essential to the
completeness of a book he had in hand.
'How do you keep track of your peo
ple? So many coming and going. 1 sup
pose you don't know your own opera
tives." .
Dow, Jr., took out his watch, glanced
from it to a clock at the end of a room
they were in and said: -
Just wait a minute and youH 'see.
Stand near this window, doctor." '
The doctor observed a number of men
and boys coming into the factory yard.
All - carried dinner pails or baskets in
their hands. They trooped into the mill
in droves, by twos and threes, singly,
laughing,-, talking, pushing and shoving'
each other, - until they entered the de
partment the doctor was in. There the
How of good natured chaff ceased as the
operatives took their places at the ma
chines they attended to. As they passed
the timekeeper's office the doctor heard
the timekeeper and his assistant repeat
ing in monotonous tones:
"Thirty -six, seventeen., three hundred
four, forty -five, eleven, seven hundred
one, two, nine, twenty-one. five hun
dred," as the arrjval of, the operatives
was recorded.'. -
Suddenly a gong sounded the doctor
started; - simultaneously the long, nar
row belts and the big, broad belts be
came taut; the monster flywheels re
volved; the long. line of pulleys over
nead" whirled; the machines, big and'
little, champed as they seemed to whet
their teeth on red hot and -cold iron,
munching it in their jaws like, ravenous
monsters and tossing the iron out again
like so many husks or empty shells after
they had " absorbed . the kernel. The
sound that filled the room as iron met
iron.- welding., cutting, ; ehaving - and
pounding, was deafening; the, whirling
pulleys and eccentric movements of the
machinery added to the confusion.
-. Seven o'clock precisely, and to a sec
ond every man. woman and boy in Dow's
factory was at work.- -:
Doctor J ayne readily' excused Dow
Jr., who was called; away bya'hand
soroe young fellow, a friend evidently,
and looked wouderingly at the opera
tions of a machine beside him.- A very
small boy attended the machine.. ' The
movements of the small boy's arms and
hands were so regular that Doctor .layue
insensibly associated him' with the ma- -chine.
It was difficult to tell where the
machine ended and the boy began. The
small boy never made a false move.' The
bit. of iron vraa lifted: with one hand
from 'one point, . the same piece in
another form was caught up dexterously
thirty seconds later f i "u the machine. J
aj enough seemingly the same instant. '
- However, as the machine manipulated
thirty pieces in a minute, it followed, as
a matter of course, that the small boy
was not slinging the same piece of iron
at himself through the machine as rap
idly as appearances indicated. The small
boy's eyes were, never off the machine:
his hands seemed to be a part and parcel
of it. It made the doctor tired to look
at hiin. He looked at the boy-inachine.
or machine-boy fully ten minutes before
he discovered that the .boy's foot was a
part - of . the mechanical - operation.
Hands, eyes, feet all were going all
on the jump.
"Curious, isn't it?' '
Doctor Jayne turned to find Dow. Jr.
at his elbow. t . .
" "That boy makes l50.0iK) movements
every day. First he picks tip the blank
from the tray, puts it in the groove,
while he removes with his other hand
the piece coming out here. If you notice
every time be reaches out his right hand
he lifts his left foot, presses this treadle
and he has to toes the piece from the
machine to the elevator."
"What's his name?" ,
"YouTl have to ask him. All we
know is that he runs u umber eleven."
- "He doesn't look eleven." said the doc
tor. Dow. Jr., smiled.
"We have them at all ages." Then.
addressing the boy: "You'll have a holi
day tomorrow Well Bhut down."
- The-small boy blinked both eyes and
nodded, and Dow, Jr., led Dr.. Jayne
through the other departments.
- When the doctor returned to his office
tie tried to estimate the probable length
of : time, that the very small boy who
operated number eleven in Dow s fac
tory could keep it up. There were
fifty-two weeks in a year, sixty working
hours in a week in round numbers.
Nearly 50,000,000 motions in a year.
Then the doctor drew a mean in esti
mating the pulse1 what looked like a
very neat calculation caused the doctor
to ponder profoundly. If a man or wom
an had a little rest recreation now and
then it wouldn't be so bad. but the out
look for the small boy was not encour
aging. " ....
Somehow the doctor could not dis
miss the small boy from his mind the
next day. He heard the whirling, whirl
ing, whirling of the pulleys; the clamp,
clamp, tlawip a irsm; rwnoJled the oil

mons was-unexpected, but; Pr-j Jayne
was one of the professional men who be
lieve they ewe something to their fellows.
He accompanied his visitor to a squalid
part of the city, ascended a long, dark
flight of stairs, and was ushered into a
meanly furnished room, provided with a
lounge and an old fashioned truckbed.
The lounge was falling apart.. -The
truckbed had a thin straw tick on it
and a ragged quilt no blanket. On -the.

There were foul smells in the alley
below the window. The house had a
sorir- smell The walls were -damp.
Wretched poverty was stamped on
everything in the. pum: there was a
sound of drunken revelry in the upper
and lower rooms and in the alley. -
"What is the matter with him?" 1
An old. old woman, with snow white
hair, ejes dimmed with age and palsied
hands, rose from the lounge with difficulty.-
and in a voice - scarcely louder
than a whisper said: .
"It's like a fever, sir."
She stood beside the bed as the doctor
spoke ty the boy. "Turn your face this
way and look at me." - - -':
The little .limp form turned -slowly
over and Dr. Jayne looked down into
the bright eyes, on the burning cheeks
of the boy he had observed in Dow's fac
tory. The doctor looked at bim intent
ly., felt his pulse, then, in low. measured
tones: ' . ' -
"A crime! a sliameful crimel ' Over
tasked murdered slow murder mur
dered by inches!" . Then, turning to the
old woman. "What made these marks
on his wrists and arms?"
. The boy -turned his face away. The
old woman looked distressed. Her hands
were moving up and down her faded
gown; they caught each other and -fell
helplessly away as she answered in that
lond whisper that was more effective
than any volume of sound uttered by
human lips. . - . -.
"His father my son beat him!" - .
-What! Beat a little fellow like that?"
The doctor., in spite of his familiarity
with degradation and brutality, was very
angry. . V- '"
"My son ; drinks does nothing - but
drink. These holidays, sir people treat
him he gets drunk somehow and
scolded scolded so. and 1 couldn't help
it. sir I couldn't." .' .
Her wretched gown was up at her
eyes, but the doctor was . occupied with
the. boy. There was something' here
worse than fever. The boy's nervous
system had received a severe shock.. He -questioned
the boy . closely, went to a
drug store near by, returned, adminis
tered some fit the medicine he brought,
left instructions with the grandmother
and returned to ; bis office, reflecting
upon the problem of life more seriously
than he had ever -done before, and he
had the reputation, of ' a. very consider-'
ate, thoughtful man. ". , '
' He visited the fever stricken boy early
the next morning. . '. ., . - .
"He didn't, Rleep inore-r-than an
hour, sir, all night," the grandmother
whispered. ' wringing . her- -bony hands
helplessly. . - . -
The doctor' looked at his patient, who
was' tossing his hands and moving his
head. ' . v -
. "He's been flighty all the time."-
The doctor turned the torn quilt down, ':
felt the boy's body, his head; timed his
pulse then suddenly turned to the win
dow and looked out . i
When the old woman spoke to him he
met her look with a steady gaze. There
was no sign of emotion; his voice was a '
trifle lower perhaps.
"Do you think" " '"'" .' -.. ,
" "It is very hard to determine. The
chances are against him. Have you any
other means than this boy supplied

The old. woman shook her head. The
doctor made a mental note. Then he
administered a powder, looked long and
earnestly at his patient, turned and left
the house with a preoccupied air.
He returned again at noon.

"Are you you the doctor's ' been
'tending my kid?' - ' ; '
' Dr. Jayne shoved him aside with as
little concern as he would push a dog
from his path, but before he had stepped
on the stairs the drunken wr-etch added:
"'Cos 'cos you're not wanted any
longer. , The boy's . dead dead, d'ye

The doctor was going np stairs; ' sud
denly he paused, descended and ad
dressed a slatternly , looking woman,
who stood in a doorway. -
"Is the boy dead?"
, ; "Died half an hour ago." .
