The Massachusetts Legislature last year authorized savings banks un der proper restrictions to enter the life insurance business, and the first bank to take advantage of the law Is that of which ex-Governor Douglas Is President. The legislation was urged both by organized labor and by the representatives of capital, and much Is expected of the new Idea. At a time when various banking and Insurance reforms are under dlscus . eion, It Is interesting to note what the Massachusetts law provides. The act permits banks to establish Insurance departments for the bene fit of depositors, to Issue policies for not more than $500, and to make an nuity contracts not to exceed $200. There are to be no agents nor col lectors, and any profits to be divided among annuitants and policyholders. The banks undertaking this line of bus iness, furnish proper guarantees, and the State assumes general supervi sion. Warbler and Caterpillars. The enormous number of insects that breeding warblers must secure to feed their young may be inferred from the fact that each young bird requires fully half its cwn weight of Insects each day. As the young are fed very largely on caterpillars, and as they are reared at a time when these insects are most plentiful, there Is no doubt regarding the restraining Influence exerted upon the Increase of such insect life throughout the North Temperate zone by a family of birds so abundant and widely distributed as the warblers. BRAIN FOWEB Increased by Proper Feeding. A lady writer who not only has done good literary work, but reared a family, found in Grape-Nuts the Ideal food for brain work and to de Telop healthy children. She writes: "I am an enthusiastic proclalmer of Grape-Nuts as a regular diet I formerly had no appetite In the morn ing and for 8 years while nursing my four children, bad Insufficient nourishment for them. -. "Uuable to eat breakfast I felt faint later, and would go to the pan try all eat cold chops, sausage, cookies, doughnuts or anything I hap pened to find. Being a writer, at times my head felt heavy and my brain asleep. "When I read of Grape-Nuts I began eating It every morning, also gave It to the children, including my 10 months' old baby, who soon grew as fat as a little pig, good natured and contented.

Read "The Road U WeUvUls." to gkf a. Duchess of Sutherland's Cripples Trentham Hall, For Generations a Show Place 01 Eng land, to Ee Turned Into a Factory For Unfortunates. People who have read Disraeli's "Lothalr" will remember his descrip tion of Brentham, that splendid Eng lish place, "an Italian palace of free stone, vast, ornate and in scrupulous condition." Brentham is really Trentham Hall, one of the seats of the Duke and Duchess of Suther land. It Is a beautiful estate, but that Is of no great significance, for there are many beautiful estates in England. What is of significance, however, is that this home of titled men and women Is to be turned Into a workshop for the unfortunate of the earth for those who are handi capped by some deformity. The Duchess of Sutherland Is at the bottom of the movement that has brought this about. She is very democratic for a peeress, though not so pronounced a socialist as her half sister, the Countess of Warwick. So democratic is she, however, that she took her sons away from the fash ionable institution of learning where they were and sent them to a parish school with the sons of the farmers. It was a socialist, Miss Margaret MacMillan, who first turned the at tention of the Duchess of Sutherland to tho need of practical work among the "Potteries" the "Potteries" being that part of England comprised in the counties of Staffordshire and Worcestershire where the interests of the Sutherlands He. As the name implies, poeetry making is one of the chief industries there. The duchess attended one of Miss MacMUIan's lec tures, and afterward, without reveal ing her identity, she had a long talk with the lecturer with whom she formed a friendship that has en dured ever since. Soon after that talk a large party of crippled chil dren were invited by the duchess to Trentham Hall. Then and there a guild was formed. The first venture was in artificoal flower making, after the methods of France. A teacher was secured from France, and this teacher visited the homes of the crippled children and instructed them. Then a room was hired, and the work began really to grow. . In two years the industry was so big that a building was leased In the town of - Hanley and other handi crafts were taken up. At the Provi dence Works, in Wilson street, Han ley, to-day, there are cripples of both sexes who are skilled as enamellers, jewelers, printers, bookbinders, die stampers and metal workers about three hundred workers, paid at union rates and making, the fast workers, quite as much as if they were able bodied men and women in the thick of the outside world. But the guild, at first supported and managed by the duchess almost without assistance from any one else, grew beyond her. There was a staff of instructors and a business staff, but the duchess, as president, had to look after the business personally. The demand for the goods manufac tured by the cripples increased, and the founder of the guild, who hither to had navigated only in social waters, found herself adrift on the great deep of the trade world. With out the training of a business woman she found herself in charge of an Society Reporter at the Fire. The regular reporter was taking a vacation and the editor was busy in the office, bo when it was learned that on the previous evening there had been a fire in a remote part of the city the young woman who writes the society news was sent to bring in a report ot it for the paper. She came into the office an hour later with the following interesting account: "Quite a number of people in this part of the city attended a fire last night at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Blank, in Thirteenth street. Some went in carriages and buggies, but a majority walked. The alarm was sounded about 9.30, and many who attended the fire had just re turned from church, consequently they were already dressed for the oc casion. "Mr. Blank was not at home, being out of the" city on business, hence the affair will be quite a surprise to him when he returns. Mrs. Blank wore a light percale kimono and had her hair done up in kid curlers. - "The firemen responded readily and worked heroically to subdue the seething flames. Most ot them were young and fairly good looking. They were dressed in oilcloth coats cut short, with trousers to match. Their hat rims were narrow in front and broad behind, and sagged down in the rear. The chief's hat was orna mented with an octagonal brass spike which stuck up above his head like a born, giving him the appearance of a unicorn. "When the flames broke out through the. second story and cast a lurid hue over the surrounding build ings the view was one never to be forgotten. At a late hour the sight seers went home, and all felt that they had passed an evening full of in terest and excitement" Nebraska (Kan.) Sun. The Trouble With Carr. "I rather like your. friend," Mrs. Page said, graciously, after Carr had gone home. "He is good looking and agreeable, but you can't call him a brilliant conversationalist. The Law ton girls talked all around blm." "Unfortunately," replied Mr. P'ge, "Carr cannot talk on a subject unless be knows something about it" Youth's Companion. industry whose demands upon her were exhausting. She was on the verge of despair, when a friend came to her assistance a well-known edi tor. This man visited the workshop, went into the fullest details and he decided and told the duchess that the only way out of the difficulty was to make the guild a regular business concern. It was done. The name was changed from the Potters' Guild of Handicrafts to the Duchess of Suth erland's Cripples' Guild, Limited. The shareholders have agreed to apply their profits to the training school and the chnrltable work of the guild. Within a few minutes the capital ot the company was subscribed. The duchess was chosen chairman. But more workrooms and better workrooms were needed, and so the Duke of Sutherland came forward with his splendid offer. He trans ferred Trentham Haft and the estates surrounding it to the company, free of rent. True, Trentham for several years had been abandoned as a ducal residence, because he River Trent, which runs through the grounds, had been so polluted by the factories on its banks. But though impossible for a residence now Trentham would bring a great deal ot money if sold for manufacturing purposes. So the duke's offer is none the less gen erous. r In the days when Trentham Hall was used by the duke as a residence the park and grounds were free to the workers in the districts round about. And beautiful grounds they were and are. The garden front, It is said, is almost unrivalled in Eng land. Then there is the lake, almost a mile long, with wooded islands here and there. On one side ot the lake rise the hills, on the other stretch the green fields. The hall Itself was built from designs by Barry, and cost $750,000 in the days when labor and material cost less than half what they do now. For generations Trentham Hall has been one of the show places of England. To have it transformed into a factory for the handicapped to work in is like a so cialist dream come true. Trentham Hall is such an immense pile ot buildings that it will accom modate a small army, and several thousands crippled workers can be employed now, therefore, Instead of a bare three hundred as at Hanley. The workshops will be as the smaller ones were equipped with the best tools and machinery of the highest grade. The crippleB all work the regulation hours at their trade, except for such time as is devoted to lecture and instruction. The ma terial is all supplied them. Some work from patterns, but the more gifted execute original designs. The workers are like one big family, it is said, though the working rules and regulations are absolutely busi nesslike. All the meals are supplied the workers, in addition to their pay by piece work, and abundant recrea tion, consisting ot games, ot reading aloud by one of the staff, and of mu sic, is furnished them. New York Tribune. . I - The Philosophy of Tlpplnir. Is restaurant tipping a necessary and incurable evil, and does it per haps result in benefits to the patron that he does not appreciate? Such would seem to be the conclusion to be drawn from an exceedingly enter taining article in the current Har per's Weekly, written from the stand point of the waiter. "Suppose every waiter," says this apologist, "got a regular salary with no chance for ex tras. Do you suppose he'd be jump ing hurdles for a lot of fussy 'people, all kicking about better things than they get at- homo? Do you think he'd present the glad smile to those he'd like to choke, break his neck making everybody comfortable, and then listen to their hard-luck stories or more painful jokes? No, sir; he'd serve the stuff just as hegot it from the kitchen. He wouldn't go back and fight for tidbits and extra-hot food.' He'd be in no hurry to serve any one and pile up work for himself. The customer would wait because the waiter wouldn't; and probably he'd never come back, and that's where the owner would lose. The stupid waiter starves. Do you know that in order to hold good waiters the cheap hash-slinging joints have to pay higher wages than the swell restau rants? There's not the opportunity for tips in the cheap places, and the waiter must follow opportunity like a bird of prey. He simply has to be clever enough to get tips, and he has no social standing to make him bash ful. There are two methods; one is to get them spontaneously, the other to force them out. Most people tip only because they're ashamed not to." Normans and Saxons.

That "colds" are due to "catching beat" is another one of the curious paradoxes due to the modern inves tigations of disease, and by "colds" is meant all the acute inflammations of the respiratory tract. Including pneumonia. Eskimos never have pneumonia at home, but they nearly nil die of It when they come to New York. This disease Is now the most fatal one In the heat of Panama. Feary states that none of his party suffered from coughs and colds in the Arctic, but after their return they have all had such diseases. "Tropical' colds" are the persistent forms of bronchitis and so hard to "throw off" or cure. It Is well to inquire, now that the benefits of cold air are be ing recognized, whether our winter colds are not really due to the un wholesome heat of our houses, which are hotter in winter thnn in sum mer. If so, we do not "catch cold" when we leave the house, but "catch heat" when we enter it. Every new fact seems to point to the neces sity of a reform in our methods of overheating our houses.
