They are doing the best they can, and we have always hoped that in the end they would suc- ceed in establishing upon a permanent basis a class whose influence should make for grace of life, and act 194 MARRIAGE AND RACE DEATH as a leaven upon our national crudity."* And D. Parkes Cadman, (a New York divine), exclaims to a convoca- tion of young men: "You want to be patient witli the millionaire; he is a new product, so don't cuff him around too hard." For the poor who are slain in New York tene...ments by the Astor rentals it is buying a "leaven upon our national crudity" rather dear. Part of the wealth of our butterfly Astors and many other millionaires comes from tenements where the poor putrefy for the purpose of doing away with our national crudity. "There is hardly a factor connected with the public health of New York more important than the condition of the tenement houses," the N. Y. Medical Journal says. Dr. S. A. Knopf, specialist in tuberculosis, exclaimed in an address that "he would like to take some well known philan- thropists to the densely crowded tenement districts of New York, and show them the sufferings of mind and body of the consumptive, who must die, not iecause his disease was incuraMe, tut because there was no place to cure it."* Would it not be an act of rudimentary wisdom for New York to take the rentals which her dis- solute society women are burning in vanities and drinks to abolish national crudity, and employ it in abolishing disease and saving the people's lives?
