Look Alter The Boys.
REV. A. f. DUNNING.

had once in my Sunday School
a class of boys from ten to twelve
years old. They belonged to good
families. Three or four years
later they formed club. 1t was
secret, but they said that they had
organized 1t for intellectual and
moral Improvement. They hired
a room in which they gathered
evenings. They brought in sever
al boys. One of the class was
appointed chaplain. After awhile
II was learned that liquor was
being brought into the club room.
The chaplain soon withdrew. He
is now Christian minister. One
day one of the most attractive
members of the club came and
confessed to me that he had been
drinking, and that his parents
had found it out, and he begged
me to tell his mother who was
almost insane with anxity, that he
would never, never drink again.
But he did and went on from bad
to worse till he disappeared.
Friends of another came to ask
counsel what to do, because he had
forged check. Employees of his
father told ne that he had made
false entries in their books and
defrauded them of money. An
other became engaged to a charm :
ing girl, but she broke the engage
ment because lie drank, and, in a
few years he died q drunkard
None of these boys at ten years of
age seemed likely to be exposed
to the temptation to drink.

enforced by the Monon, the st. Lou

overwork and the use Of stimulants,
on the part of railroad employees Of

ings are slaughtered annually and
millions Of dollars worth Of property
destroyed. The railroad companies
are taking none too decided a stand
against the use Of intoxicants and

this compulsory. Human life should

Bankrupt Laws.

senator Dolllver, of Iowa. is cred
tied with determination to try to
get the present bankruptcy law abol-
ished. He gives for n reason that
1t makes it so easy for young men to
rush into debt and then secure a
discharge in bankruptcy, that many
previously honest young men are
now borrowing all they can, with
the purpose of appealing to the
bankruptcy law in order TO defraud
their creditors. On moral grounds,
he thinks the law should be repeal
ed.
We agree with Mr.. Doliver in the
statement that the present bankrupt.
cy law puts premium on dishon-
esty by affording no end of loopholes
by which dishonorable men can es-
cape paying their debts. We do
not agree with him as to the practic-
al working of the law. 1t really tends
TO lesson credits instead Of increas-
ing them. Time has been when the
average merchant coul go to banks
and borrow money for his needs.
The bankrupt law has nightly
changed this. The large banks no
longer buy commercial paper. Some
still Accommodate old and we'll tried
customers, but they are gradually
Withdrawing from these discounts.
In the large cities, commercial pa
per, except that of great corpora
tions, is handled but little, small
fraction OF what was done a few
years ago. In smaller places, where
! individual borrowers are better
known, the change is notso radical,
but it is going on there The bank

way of refusing to pay and getting
a clean discharge too easy.
The true foundation of credit is
the degree of willingness felt by
bankers to loan. For they in the
end carry all creditors. And the
bankruptcy law has already, in part,
dried up the confidence of the bank
ing world in lending money upon
commercial paper and the distrust.

the banks were never so strong and
never made so few losses, but the

same as the dishonest, is finding the
sources of credit closed aud is going
out of business or being absorbed
into larger concerns Of established
capital and credit.
We have no idea that the present
bankruptcy law will be abolished
or seriously changed. We believe
that in some regard it is serving a
good purpose, but very different
one from what was anticipated by
some Of those who expected much
