rather a revolution by means of a reformation. And yet there is no

since it uses the human waste in collecting what would be the natural
wastage of the city, and devotes each to the service of the other. 5. It
is _systematic_ and therefore bound to be as immensely superior to the
present haphazard mode, as a regular Army is to an undisciplined mob. 6.

enormous expenditure_ and avoids the necessity for harsh, repressive,
unpopular legislation, and increased taxation. 8. _It benefits the
public._ (a) It removes a public nuisance. (b) And yet it satisfies the

daily food and a sufficiency of it. (c) It restores their self respect.
(d) It teaches them habits of honesty, industry and thrift. (e) It opens
up to them a pathway of promotion. 10.
