Which Befel the Optics of the Good Young
Man of the "Globe" Yesterday.
How do you get through with Sunday? is
question as common as the approach OF
the day itself, once week. Sunday in its
sunshine, or it's rain, its heat, or Its cold, is
much like it's more ignoble companions, the
weekdays. But custom doth edge it round
and about with observances. Some feel tn.
sanctity and rest of the holy day; others as
sumo it. It is becoming and it pays to be
religious. How do you pass the Sabbath?
THE MOTHER
gets the family of children washed up fol-
the days observance, keeps a vigilant eye
over the flock in church, superin-
tends dinner, is put out because
the soup is smoked and be-
fore the day is over, wishes for Monday,
because the children will be at school.
THE FATHER.
He renews the casual acquaintance OBJ
tanned during the week with each member of
his family. Has his attention called to
Bobby's boots. Swears he bought pair
only last week. Adele, the favorite daugh-
ter, reminds him that she has worn her
cloak two winters. He snoozes after dinner
and dreams of numberless orders for Mon
day. Dinner doesn't suit him. He tnm-
bles into bed with the prayer, ''Thank God,
tomorrow is Monday
THE DAUGHTER.
She wonders whether Charlie will be
round tonight, and passes the day in be-
wilderment until Charlie comes.
THE SON.
Having arrived at the age of puppydom
has some difficulty in knotting his cravat.
Borrows pas razor for shave, on the sly,
goes to church, and has the self -conscious-
ess of being the observed of all observers.
Sophie and he discuss the weather at
Sophie's papa's house on the sofa. Sunday
is bully day to him.
THE SMALL BOY.
Bother Sunday, yer can't play and-and
oh, wish it was Monday!
THE PREACHER.
He aggravates his bronchial affection by
preaching q so cent. sermon for $4,000
salary.
THE FASHIONABLE LADY.
She longingly looks at the seal skin
sacque. loo warm for it, and she signs.
Exquisitely arranged, carrying velvet
bound and gold mounted prayer book, she
rides to church, minclngly walks to her
rented pew, leans her head upon her dainty
kid glove and prays:. ''Thy will be done on
earth as it 10 in heaven"
She raises her head, and takes an inven
tory of the dry goods Ill the establishment.
Home again, che Tolls the day away.
THE LAWYER.
He needs only brief mention. He OBJ
serves the law-of custom.
THE SERVANT GIRL.
It's her day out. She and Tom are to-
gether. She shows up quite styishly in
mistress dress, borrowed for the occasion.
THE SALOON KEEPER.
He "pulls down the blinds" and allays the
thirst of Sunday sufferers. His customers
are just the same as they who seek nip on
Monday, Tuesday, etc. But they come for
it through by-ways.
THE COMMERCIAL TRAVELLER.
He stays over Sunday, ogles the girls, and
fatters himself he's made mash. sI viii
come this way again.
THE TELEGRAPH OPERATOR.
All night long he listens to the click of the
wires, which brings the worlds Sunday te
Monday readers
THE POLITICIAN.
Like the Irishman's flea, he is everywhere
He knows every alley-way in the city, ano
finds enough "holes in the wall'' to under
mine all the structures IN town. But
he gets in his work, and rubs his hands
contentedly at "the good days work'' on
Sunday.
THE POLICEMAN.
He is on his beat. Out of the twenty
four hours, he can't beat leisure moment
from the wotchful care over his ward-the
city and her people.
THE EDITOR.
He slaves to serve the people; to expose
fraud; to instruct the masses. His mission
allows him no rest. Eternal vigilance is
the price of bushel of wheat, not measured
in q brass kettle.
THE DOCTOR.
There is sickness and suffering; agony
a I'd death on the Sabbath.
THE BUTCHER AND THE BAKER
The people eat on Sunday.
THE REPORTER
BE comes down to the office and helps to
get out the paper, eagerly demanded on
Monday.
Is Sunday day of rest?
