CAUSE AND EFFECT
Good Digestion Follows Right Food.

Indigestion and the attendant dis

Those who are still young and

that, as dropping water will wear q

heavy. greasy, rich food, finally cause

WHY NOT STATE WORK?

Why not state work. Why should not every man or
woman, with two hands and willing mind have work
proportional to his her strength AS much work
desired and always food shelter and clothing in return?
Think it out. In these days we hear of lot of men
who want work and food AS if there is not and should
not be, always abundance of BOTH There is abun
dance of both. Work-which things to do to
make old earth productve-s like the of air
around We breathe the latter, when feel the
need, and we ought to have work freely.
1t is the existing of men and in communities
their coming together in crowds and living shoulder
to shoulder; that has made the problem of work and
poverty Is it not then, problem to be solved by the
whole crowd-by the community?
Why should not the community provide 1865 days
in the year, opportunity to wordsworth at living
wages! It is than question of furnishing
the TOOLS and land is of the chief tools Work pro-
duces things of value and those who took the states
offer of work would create the food the clothing the
shelter which they need There would be real tax
upon the thrifty There is not any real question OF
''pauperizng' the community. There is competition
from lot of people who exchanging their work for
the necessities of life There is tax, burden from
a number of people who creating the things they
consume.
1t is all question of furnishing the tools. The tools
may be land and farm Implements they may be ledgers
planes and saws workshop, broom factory road
on which to pound stone, warm room with some
yarn and knitting needles in which old lady may sit
and knit mittens. That is all matter of detail. The
point is this The state-the communicative city,
county, nation-ough to raise the first cost by tax
the whole community and then furnish oosset up the
farm the shop, the place to knit, and be ready at all
times to dspense-not aims but a chance to work Let
this work be for wages and let the profit go to those
who make it.
This is the only enlightened way to deal with this
growing and always present problem of the needy There
will always in a community, be the weak, the thrftess

should be solved as we solve the problem of city 8
