Title from item.
Caption: Puck (to Mr. Carnegie) Books are already so cheap and libraries so abundant that even the poorest man has all the literature he wants. Now, why not provide respectable homes for the people who are too old to work and who were never able to save anything from their scanty wages; - and so keep them from beggary, starvation or suicide?
