Poverty Must Exist.

1t seems to be a prevalent impression that
its existence is only a consequence of the
present UNEQUAL Strbuton of the worlds
wealth. Hence the upsplnging of anti
poverty societies and other plausible pro-
ects for setting things to right ana for the
general d fusion of influence among men.
But this hypothesis is totally uutenable.
All the worlds wealth put together, if
equally distributed, would not suffice to
make the worlds people rich, or even to
relieve them from pressure of want-a
pressure which in that case would be uni
verSal. : For what the world has to live
upon from year to year is only the aggre
gate annual product of all the industries of
the world: and what this amounts to in
civilized lands at least, has been pretty
we'll ascertained by inquiries deliberately
conducted under public authority. From
the results Of such inquiries it is quite
apparent that if this aggregate product were
to be distributed with the most rigorous
impartiallty among all the inhabitants of
the countries investigated. it could at most
only supply the simple necessities of life.
and nobody would be in what are called
circumstances of ease.
To come down. however, from general
tiles to statements little more definite, we
may observe that Mr.. Edward Atkinson of
Boston--a gentleman who has devoted some
years to the study of industrial statistics,
and whose familiarity with facts entities
his opinion to the highest consideration
has furnished us with all estimate which
throws. from our own country at least, "A
very vivid light upon the point in question.
AS the result of his inquiries he concludes
that the annual production Of all the indus
tries of the United States cannot exceed
5000 per head of the population. which
would give total of S12. 900. 600 900. An
equal distribution of this product would
give each family of five persons in a pOpu-
latlon of SO. 600, 600, or II. OOO 600 families,
distributive share of $1,000 per annum.
Now. suppose that One-third of these fam
lilies. or groups of five. manage to secure an
average share of 50. 900 per annum. the
remaining two thirds would be reduced to
an average of $500 only. Suppose one half
of this third to be fortunate enough or
skillful enough to increase their av. age to
So. 900. the remaining one halt cOnti..ujng
at 50, 0O0 the average share of the two
thirds would fall to $3.50. or $50 per head
per annum.-FOrum.

Straw Thoughts.

Life without laughing is dreary blank
The blows that wound most are often
those that are never aimed.
Jealousy is the homage that inferiority
pays to merit.
A republic is not founded OIL virtue but
on the ambition of its citizens.
Memory like true friend, is made the
frmer by being trusted.
He who can plant courage III the human
heart is the best physician.
A PERSONS character is better revealed by
his hobby than by any other characteristic
Every mans life lies within the present,
the past is spent, and the future is uncer-
tain.
Our greatest weakness is not in, falling.
but IN not righting ourselves up again.
Our three greatest enemies are selfish
ness, doubts and ill-temper
A good deed is never lost; he who sOws
courtesy reapS friendship. and he who
plants kindness gathers love.
A few books we'll studied and thoroughly
digeSted, nourish the understanding more
than hundreds that are but gargled in the
mouth.

Wonderful If True.

Some forty years ago there was in lower Canada
old mill, which was run by twelve men divided
into two crews. each crew working six hour shifts
Thus the mill was kept running n ght and day. 1t
so happened that there was no time piece about
the establishment. How to tell the time to change
the shift bothered them Il good deal until a happy
thought struck one of the men. He went to the
nearest town and had five hundred candles made
that would burn just six hours each. Strange he
did not buy clock which light have been done
for less money; but he was not posted on clocks
he preferred trusting to candles. All went along
smoothly for time. but one night in midwinter
the crew tn at went on duty at p M, thought
their candles burned very slowly and that mid
night was long time coming. Presently they be-
held the morning breaking in the st,and yet the
candle was only half burned away. When they
came to investigate they discovered that it had
been so cold that the blaze had frozen sometime
during the forepart of the night They bought
clock next day and TO- prevent its freezing up put
it in the oven of the cook stove.

What Statistics Show.

Here is statement worthy of consider
alton. 1t was made by G. S. Griffith. pres
ident of the Maryland Prisoners Aid AssO-
citation. over his own signature. He says:
''Intrmperance has created the largest per-
centage of the misery. poverty. insanity and
crime. Statistics show that at least ninety
per cent of those incarcerated in the pris-
ons of Maryland can trace their downfall.
either directly or indirectly. to strong drink.
and eighty-five per cent of those in our
almshOuses can trace their unfortunate con-
ditiOn to the same cause" This man is a
statistician. He is a shrewd observer of
human nature. a student of law and its
operations, and he unQualifiedly asserts
that where the saloon has been closed.
drunkenness has almost vanished. and crime
of all kinds has decreased in like proper
ton. He knows prOhibitOry laws can be
enforced whether against liquor or larceny
He has gone through the experiment and
can speak with authority. Let those who
oppose prohibition. and advocate high Ii
cense. stand up andScontradict him if they
can.-The Progressive Age

Sunday Services.

Services conducted by the Catholic Chap
lain. His text from the Gospel of Luke. and
treated of the miracle performed by Jesus Chr st
in ia sing the widows from the dead. The
following is a brief outline uf his remarks:
This story is truthful incident in the LIE of
| our Lord We behold the picture before eyes
of this poor woman fol owing the body of her only
son TO the grave. We can understand her feeling
OF unspeakable or ef in behoIdne this son-her
only support-taken away: the multi
tude following the remains TO the old burying
ground. Our blessed Savior met the cortege as
by accident and being moved by the deep aff1ic-
ton and troubles Of this poor widow, His loving
kindness prompted Him to allay the bitterness of
her sorrow by bringing the support of her old age
back to life again. 1t is such a Savior that we
| need in this world, one who can sympathize with
us in our aklcton 1t is only in Jesus Christ we
can find such savior. There IS an irresistible
longing in the soul for happne ss that is above
earthly possibilities God the source of all ha p
piness As thu hart panteth for the fountain of
cooling water so man panteth for the fountain of
God. Men in all times have had strong concep-
ton of the existence of a God. The ancen t
Greeks erected altar to the ship of the uu-
known God. When st. Paul first preached to
the Athenians. he said, L to speak TO you of
the unknown God whom you worship How shall
we account for ali these strange longings in the
hearts of men? How shall we explain this God?
Oh that God would become man again that would
solve it, Then we could be like God.
Under the old regime the knowledge of the COM
ing of Savior what caused the offering up of
sacrifices and the worship of idols The ancients
knew ard believed mat God wouli send His son
to save the world. This SAVIOR did come. He
became Il man. not for d ~ but for ali time He
did not with grand kingly pomp. but like the
poorest of the poor. Born in stable at Bethle-
hem He lived and mingled alwa.s with the poor
God sent his Son to teach mankind the way to
live true life. Let us always remember that God
is Man. and that as brothers. Remember
His words the when He said 20 his
Blessed Mother, Mother. be Did thy son., and to
st. John, Son, behold thy mother Go to Him in
prayer and ask Him to help you. He will take
your His shoulders, and when this
life is over will reward US in the kingdom which
God has prepared forever and ever"

The hot days of the past week were productive

The hot days of the past week we're productive
of some very unique architecture as visit to the
vicinity of the excavation will show. Old boards
sheet iron, stor es and everything that could be
utilized has been gathered up by the boys and
woven into shelters to protect them from the suns
scorching rays while waiting for the wagons At
one place may be little bower only large
can find shelter. But one gang has excelled all the
others by erecting grand pavilion with seating
capacity for tn rty more and standing room for
ten at the least. The boys know when to seek
shelter without being told.
The long wished for organ has at last been
purchased. And it is one that is well worth wish
ing and waiting for. The instrument is of Clough
& Warren make and intended for chapel and
church services. and has sixteen stops controlling
ten sets of reeds, the latter being supplied with
qualifying tubes which render the tones smooth
and resonant. The mechanical stops of the
latest pattern ard add materially to the capab-
throws on the full organ. and the swell not only
increases the volume of sound but also by Il simple
mechanism throws open slat like arrangement
at the back of the organ TO allow of its free
egress. The various 500 stops are distinct and
individual in their tones and in the hands of d
good organist are susceptible to many and beauti.
full combinations. The organ IS said to be one of
the best in the city AMI the inmates may well con-
graduate themselves on its possess
