and prosperity of cities that have suffered. When
the great fire devastated London nnd left the metropolis -
tropolis a pile of cinders and ashes , it was thought
that all England was ruined. But standing now
on thc dome of St. Paul.'s cathedral , and looking
out over the stately buildings that were mnde possible -
sible by that cleansing fire , England understands.
When destruction overwhelmed Chicago , the cit-

was n giant's task , hut carrying the burden developed that generation

And the news from San Francisco tells us that the citizens are
made of heroic stuff. Alrcady they are beginning the work of clearing -
ing away their ashes. 'rhey have' decided to lay their foundations
broader nnd deepcr. They are beginning to say : "This hour of
tronble is an hour of flaming opportunity , when we can show the
wholc world how strong men and wom n can meet an emel'gency. "
Already the tales of heroism and fortitude are sufficient to make a
new Iliad. 'rhe loss of material things is nothing when manhood is
so great and victorious. Who knows but that these people nre to lift
up standards of character and are to exalt the whole fifteen hundred
millions of the family of m n ?
Once more the l1Uman race must remember Christ's paradox :
"Blessed are they that mourn. " Looking at the great immortals , we
cry out : 'Who are these in their bright array ? And the an5wer is :
'I'his is Lincoln , with his scarred face ; this is Robert Bruce , with his
wanderings and his broken heart ; this Socrates , with his cup oj
poison ; this is Paul , the exile and the hero ; this is Aeneas fleeing
from burning Troy ; this is Abraham , driven out of Er , going out tc

influence and makes them golden and immortal forever.
When long time has passed men may begin to understand the
mystery. To-day , midst our tears and our bewilderment , we wit
trust. Let us believc that God is in His sky. Perhaps the people
of San Francisco will have to save up their hard problems and some
day ask their hard question before the throne of God. In that houl

of the fami1ie whicl
applied for its assistance in 1905 had been deserted by the husband 0
wife. Another society found that during tJte same period one in te :
of the families asking ils help had been deserted. Reports of othe
charities show similar facts. It should be said that the man of th
family is the usual offender-that rarely is a woman guilty of this un
natural crime.

send 1\10ney for its support. Hard luck attends him , he drifts fror
place to place , gradually becomes alienated , and finally ceases to com

which case the deciding quarrel is usually the culmination of a 1011. .
series of bitter wrangles , in which the blame often must be shared b

The Cost of Food.
Those who have made an exhaustive
stully of lho cost of food assure us that
thIs Item ranges about the same in th"
different markets of the country , al. .
though In some places ono supply may
cost more and another less than In a
place hunllreds of miles nway. These
who have gardens of their own. or who
are able to buy directly ( rom the ( arm
of n neighbor , with no Intervening mld-
tlle-mnn anll no ascentllng scale 01
profit from protlucor to consumer , may
IIvo moro cbeaply thlln their friends who
possess no such advantage.
In the country , ( or Instance , the enl
money actually expended may bo laid
out for meat when the butcher maltei
his wealdy round with his cart. Olhe.
articles of food are raised on the farm
anti the thrlfly housewlfo has thE

the nearest town for other things that
Bhe needs. Country tlwellers should
IIvo much better , nil things considered.
than their city cousins. The latter , how.
ever , neell not go boyonll their means 11
they purchase with tllscretlon and Buffer -
fer no waste fn the household. In a
great city a visit to the marltet , hert ]
or there. Is a revelation of the com.
merce of the globo. Fruits. vegetables ,
Ilairy products , meat. overyUllng in
splendid variety shows how Interde-
pcnllent we are , and how swiftly trains
ply and sleamers race across the sea ,
that the world may be fcd. Duyers
have only to choose from an bun i i-
and attractive bill of fare.
The crying sin of American housekeeping -
keeping Is willful waste. The amount
of good ( oed that Is dally thrown away
I by people of limited means Is positively -
ly shocleing. One houselteeper in ten
I talces proper care of left-overs from the
table , and suffers nothIng to be lost
through forgetfulness , or cast by n
I thriftless maid into the garbage pall.
,
The average maid despises small economics -
omics , but this Is no reason why she
should not be taught to practice them.
. The cost of IIvtng In a thousand homes
might annually bo Illminlshed by a
tenth without n single person In the
household incurring the slightest self-
I Ilenial.
In n thoueanll homes , too. moro
careful buying and moro careful savIng -
Ing would result in a gratifying sum
in the banle at the entl of each twelve-
month. If the cost of living is higher
than It once was. . we must remember -
ber that the wage-rato Is also hIgher
and that the country is not in the
least Impoverished , but. on the con-
L trary , exceedingly well-to-do. We
, may share Its prosperity If as Individuals -
uals we look out for waste.
