Hard work.

How many men like hard work? Many
of us are ready enough to tax our minds
or our muscles to the utmost for a GER
tain object, but it is the object we love,
not the labor. If we could obtain the
end we covet without exertion, which Of
us would toll and sweat as matter of
choice? Horace Greeley, who was one
of the hardest workers of his day and
generation, used to say that nine-tenths
of those who profess to be enamored Of
work are mere hypocrites.
Adam himself was an indolent fellow.
Had it been otherwise the cultivation of
the soil would not have been imposed
upon him as penalty for his disobedi-
ence. He was quite taken back when
told that he must live by the sweat of
his face. He would have preferred the
life of a gentleman of leisure, and most
of his descendants take after him In
that particular. Nevertheless we toll
with an energy and perseverance that
do honor to our-shan we say to our
greed?
But mark our cunning. All the time
we are inventing labor saving machin-
cry, manufacturing dumb slaves to do
our bidding, while we look ON and ad-
mire their energy.-Pomona Progress

No less an authority than the presi-
dent Of the Institute OF Civil Engineers
has declared that the sulphurous vapor
produced during ths combustion of coal
is most beneficial TO the inhabitants OF
London. disagreeable as 1t undoubtedly
is.
As many as $50 tons OF sulphur are
thrown into the air in one winters day.
and the enormous amount OF sulphurous
acid generated from it deodorixes and
disinfects the air, destroying disagree
able smells emanating from refuse heaps
and sewers and killing the disease germs
which find their way into the atmos-
phere.
There may be good deal OF truth in
this view, but there is undoubtedly am
other side TO the question. II Is an old
comparison that doctor and his drugs
bear q relationship to the patient and
the disease like that Of policeman to-
ward householder attacked by gar
roter. The policeman lays about with
his truncheon: sometimes he hits the
householder. sometimes the garroter.
and the good or III which results from
his interference viii depend upon which
party happens to get the most and tho
heaviest blows.
This simile is admirably suited TO sui
phurous acid in London fogs. for al
though IL may be beneficial to the Lon
don householders by destroying mi
crobes 1t certainly frequently does them
harm by attacking their lungs and
bringing on hronchitia and asthmn
which sometimes prove rapidly fatal. TO
