The Magazines. EXPERIMENT IN HOUSING FOR BUSINESS WOMEN. For over twenty-five years there has been a recognized need for provision In city communities of protected boarding houses for young women at work away from home. The Young Women's Christian association has maintained such places in many cities during this period and others of a similar character have been carried on successfully for a long time. They have been on a charitable and educational basis administered to serve the needs oi girls beginning their working careers on imall pay. One chief aim has been to protect the girls from moral dangers, and so far as the Young Women's Christian association houses are concerned there usually has been a strong evangelical influence brought to bear to keep these young women in the path of virtue. Such houses if successful are after all schools for training girls safely to lead lives independent of the ordinary protections of home surroundings. They should therefore yearly graduate a number of their residents as being fitted both financially and morally to carry themselves with a uonsiderablo degree of security and success on a wholly Independent bails. Given a group of such young women they should represent a higher ethical, physical and business standing than a group of those who have not enjoyed the same opportunities. Only In such results should a uubsldlzed boarding-house find a reason for its existence. In Boston these subsidized institutions provide generously for those who are eligible. There is, however, a further problem. It concorns the physical quite as much as the moral strength of those earning what la regarded fair pay. The need is to euplly to employed women of all sorts of occupations earning from nine dollars to fifteen dollars a week u means of finding comfortable board and room with parlor accommodations, preferably under the same roof, for what they can afford to pay and yet pay for all they get. To provide such an establishment to meet this need there must be household management of the highest grade of Intelligence. In order to pay for this there must be a sufficiently large number to provide for to secure the best results out of wholesale rates and methods of buying and to reduce the individual proportion in the cost of management itself. Eleanor TI. Woods in Charities and the Commons. A MUCH NEEDED PRECEDENT. New Haven has passed an ordinance against ticket speculation so drastio and so precise that it bids fair to change the conditions of the football season. This ordinance provides that every ticket to a place of amusement shall boar upon its face a statement of its original selling price. If any one attempts to dispose of this ticket for more than Its face value he Khali be subject to a fin of from $10 to $100. The ticket speculators In the City of Elms had been planning for their customary pickings on November 16, when Princeton plays Yale. Such an ordinance strikes at the root of .their trade, and they are banding together to test the constitutionality of th law. If the rule can be enforced, there will be no such thing as profit in ticket selling, with the result that the football authorities of the two colleges will be able, up to the last minute, to control the distribution of Keats. Under such a system the public will not obtain the tickets to the exclusion of the belated but deserving graduate. At Cambridge also this year there are to be some eight thousaud less seats for the Harvard-Yale game. This move, together with the New Haven ordinance, will make for college sport for college men. Moreover, if the new law at New Haven is enforced, it may cast over ticket speculation in general a shadow which will stretch even to the sidewalks of llroadway. From Collier's for November 16. ST.

BY MOTOR TO THE SOUTH POLE. Karly next April in all human probability the mystery of the South pole will be solved, so writes Wm. George iu the Technical World Magazine for December. For the stout little oakbreasted sealer Nimrod will have anchored under the towering ice-cliffs of King Edward VII Land, and a dash will be made over the level ice v;ith the help of automobiles of very novel pattern: Siberian ponies, special instruments, and all the aids that science can suggest. But foremost among all the novelties of the Shackleto:i expedition are the steel motor-cars, specially hardened to withstand an enormous degree of cold. They win transport no passengers, being solely for the haulage of stores and provisions a matter of vital importance, as witnessed by tho terrible outbreak of scurvy among the members of the discovery expedition. Theso motor cars the very first to be used in polar exploration have special sets of wheels for varying qualities of ground or ice. And when wheels are impossible altogether, sledge-runners may be fitted instead; yet the cars will still forge ahead, hauling their long trains of sledges over the Ice driven by twenty-horse power motors of nnlque pattern, ppeclally designed for the purpose. Nothing has been left to chance. The

CASH 3X3 petrol has been tested In amazingly low temperatures, artificially produced by chemists of the British government. Great reliance is placed upon these automobiles; bu teven should they fail, there are the Siberian ponies to fall back upon. These will travel much faster and farther than the dogs usually employed all through the long and thrilling history of polar exploration: and moreover these sturdy little horses from the Siberian steppes will require proportionately less to eat. In Shackleton himself, with Captain England, his commander, and Dunlop, the engineer, the expedition has a trio . of unique experience and daring; so j that no matter what surprises the mys-' terious southern continent may have in store when its great ice-mantle is crossed, and its terrible volcanoes cir cumvented, it is hard to see how sue cess can elude these explorers. THE QUESTION OF PURE MILK When the Second International Pure Miik Congress, at Brussels, on ! September 12-16. li07, recommended j tho universal pasteurization of milk as tho best immediate means of improving the milk supply, the pasteur-ized-milk movement Nathan Straus inaugurated in New York City more than fifteen years ago became a world policy. Delegates from thirty-one nations gave indorsement to the plan. The donation by Mr. Strauss of a complete pasteurization plant to the City of Brussels, made at the conclusion of the conference, is the latest forward movement in the pure-milk campaign in European cities. Following this international action comes ths report cf fbe renlt cX the

The Complete

SB! work of thirty-five experts selected by the milk conference held in Washington, some months ago. This report recommends the grading of milk into three classes certified, inspected, and pasteurized. Certified milk is from Inspected dairies, from cows proved free from disease; this milk is to be frequently analyzed, to contain not more than 10.000 bacteria to th cubic centimeter, and to be not mor than twelve hours old when delivered co the consumer. Such milk is to be sold raw, and labeled "certified." Milk not quite up to these requirements Is included In the same grade, but is to be marked "inspected." Second-grade milk is that not produced under the conditions named. which must be pasteurized and sold under the pasteurized label. The third grade consists of milk of unknown origin, to be classified and pasteurized at central pasteurization plants under the personal supervision of officers of boards of health. While these are, as yet, merely suggestions, their importance is shown by the fact that the Secretary of Agriculture co-operated with the milk experts, that by direction of the Presi dent the Agricultural Department Is j investigating the milk question, that it is probable the next Congress will be asked to pass a Pure-Milk law largely along the lines of the experts recommendations. A vigorous puremilk campaign seems foreshadowed. These things lend additional importance to the giant fact that 4,000,000 persons are engaged in furnishing 80.000.000 inhabitants of the United States with milk. Not all these sell milk to the coneumer, but a number slightly la excts cf that sTrtn repr

CREDIT 'SNUFFBOXES. Ones Held an Important Part In the Councils of Nations. No longer applicable is an old diplomat's advice to "take snujf often and slowly," yet according to the Hon. John W. Foster, author of "The Practice of Diplomacy." the time was when snuffboxes held an important part in the councils of nations. The present which the Spanish government tendered to General Pinckney in 1705 and which congress withheld from him was j a gold snuffbox. j The British plenipotentiary who attended the conferences at the close of the Napoleonic wars received as preaeuts twenty-four sntiTlose of the value of l.(TO each. Richly Jeweled boxes were tLe diplomatic fashion a century and 's .re sign, bi.t the fashion has chanced. As a reminder of the olden time. Sir Charles Russell, afterward lord chief justice of England, the British seuior counsel in the Bering sea arbitration at Paris in 1S03. a great collector of historic snuffboxes, carried a previous one and was constawtiy onering its contents to his colleagues. After the treaty of vag concluded with Persia the American minister to Turkey., w ho f'ned It, wrote to the
