| Summary | "Appletons' Popular Science Monthly, August 1899" by Various is a scientific publication written during the late 19th century. This periodical offers a collection of essays and articles on various scientific topics, reflecting the thoughts and advancements of the time. Its content likely includes discussions on social issues, scientific discoveries, and critiques of contemporary practices in public charity and social policy, aiming to inform and engage a general readership interested in science and its effects on society. The opening of the publication introduces an article by Franklin H. Giddings, which critiques the inefficiencies and abuses within the public charity system in New York City. Giddings highlights the significant funds allocated to private charitable institutions that lack proper oversight, questioning the efficacy of such expenditures compared to public administration of poor relief, which he argues has historically been plagued by even greater mismanagement. By providing a detailed analysis of past practices and current shortcomings, Giddings sets the stage for a broader conversation about the responsibilities of private and public agencies in addressing social welfare, emphasizing the need for vigilance in safeguarding public interests.
