It's the outcome of systematic organtzation—s very potent business principle of ours and one that is absolutely necessary to success. We introduced it in Wasli- ington, experimentally, vears ago.

When re- lief reached there not a soul in the place had had 9 morsel to eat for twenty-four bours, as provisions, cook stoves, &c., were all blown away.
