1.-THE WORKMAN"

The American Tract Society has published a sens-
BILE. il somewhat preachy, little book by the Rev. j.
p. Thompson. ID. d.. L. D., called "The workman
His raise Friends and His True Friends" DR..
Thompson does not look upon the men who sulk
around street and talk about the rights Of
tho workingman and the injustice shown in tho dis
trbution of wealth honest of toll but the
real enemies of those who depend upon their labor
for their bread. He does think that luxury and
extravaganza necessarily a financial damage to
the community For instance. he says:-
lately saw the Queen Of England denounced for
spending much money upon the marriage OF her
son, the Duke of Connaught, when many poor
out of employment. hut II the Queen had
wished to help the poor what should she have
done-have given them charity or given them work |?
Now in tact, the marriage festivities at Windsor
gave work to hundreds for many days. and by vis-
itors and by various outays brought large sums of
money to the town. And so IL often happens that
what the poor denounce as luxury proves a service
able outlay upon themselves
Dr. Thompson thinks that the workingman in
America has little TO grumble at his lot. He
has personal freedom that is his in other coun-
try and his career is as he moulds 1t. He says:-
In these United states we have already all the op-
portunitee material and INDUSTRIAL and all the prii-
clples, poll teal and moral. which are required to
produce society in winch every man shall feel that
honest work brings him an honest support, that an
