The tendency Of the necessaries and
Of the luxuries Of life is to oheapness
The man who does not recognize Cheap
ness as the hand maid Of civilization is
poor historian, a worse logician and
no political economist at all. He is a
man who must maintain that stage
coaches are better than steam cars; that
electricity is deleterious 1t is not dis
astrous to workingmen that modern
loom will weave one hundred yards Of
better carpet in day than an old negro
woman In a cabin can make out Of rags
in month We use more carpets.
Millions travel by railways to hundred
by stage coaches.

lr is fasality curious or obvious and
logical as one may OF may not believe.
that induces or impels many men, who
are out Of work. to loaf ON the street
corners. That proclaims their ldloness
at least. if IL does not proclaim something
worse. Idleneas is bad enough but ii
leads to worse faults, it frequently leads
TO crime Ia fact we might make log
ical and forcible argument to prove that
idleness Is crime A man should not
loaf. He should do something. II he
cannot do anything else he should stay
at home and care for the baby while the
wife takes holiday. If he cannot
keep house and care for the baby
he ought to learn. Meantime he might
repair the furniture, mend the broken
locks, regulate the clock. sharpen the
carving knife, Put down the carpet.
paint and paper the bed rooms and ind
other useful and obvious things which
he could do without making himself a
burden to his wife, horror to his
children aud a nuisance to the neighbors.
He should not run the risks and the
temptations ofidleness. Il is too true that
the devil employs an idle man ~ the
effect Of idleness is not to destroy the hap
piness Of or to injure Others it degrades
the man who INDUCES IL in his own es.
teen and then In the esteem Of others.
ldloness is inexcusable. We will not
even listen to an excuse. The man who
excuses itexaggeIates the fault-his own
fault-by proclaiminga helplessness that
is hrsi-cousin TO pauperism The times
are no, so hard as men are listless and
lazy.
