A Strange Army.

Every morning at the seeming
strange hour of one o'clock, 1000
men form in two lines before a
certain mission on the Bowery,
New York City, each to receive
at the hands of charity, his cup Of
not coffey and loaf of bread.
By actual count, one of the cold
est nights this winter, only one in
twenty-three of this procession
had anything that could, by a
stretch Of imagination, be called
an overcoat, and probably not one
in fifty had a home
Among this army of charity
seekers are some, brought h e r e
by dissipation, some by sickness,
som e by temporary run of
run hard luck" and not a few
because they have never learned
to do some one thing well, : to be
masters of a, trade instead of
slaves to circumstances.
1t is touching to see the line of
hungry men linger in the warm
room through which they have to
pass, until crowded out again into
the stormy night by those behind
them.
Farmer boys, after you h a V e
dreamed of a gay, socisl life in a
great city, of a delightful h o m e
and fine clothes, and before you
finally decide to leave the farm
give a little study to the famous
E"bread line" of this Bowery mis-
sion. Then if you still insist on go
ing, become something before you
go; study some trade or m e
profession. Don't join the great
army of drifters of which t h S
bread line" is but the rear guard
Be masters of something; not
slaves.-Ex
