Summary: "Appletons' Popular Science Monthly, October 1899" by Various is a periodical scientific publication written in the late 19th century. This edition features a collection of essays and articles covering a range of topics within the realm of science and society, exploring contemporary issues and advancements. Particularly notable is the discussion surrounding public charity and its implications, raising questions about the effectiveness and morality of existing charitable practices in the context of modern urban life. The opening of this edition begins with a thought-provoking essay titled "The Help That Harms" by the Right Reverend Henry C. Potter, which delves into the complexities and consequences of charitable aid. Potter scrutinizes the relationship between individual responsibility and societal assistance, highlighting how public charity can sometimes foster dependency rather than encourage self-sufficiency. He presents historical perspectives on charity, contrasting earlier communal support with the modern institutional approach, and raises essential questions about the true impact of charitable initiatives on the dignity and independence of those they aim to help.
