One hears IT said that tine rich com

do not compel the poor to work; ma.

law Of nature, imperatively laid on all,
young and old. male and female alike:
and lasting the whole lifetime. All
that the rich do is to show the poor
what to work at; and this they do,
not becauea they are rich, for a rich
fool cannot do it, but because they
have the twofold power Of seeing

to-day began with no capital but their
inherent power; and what we call
capital is merely the register Of that
power, the evidence that the power
has been exerted; but the inherent
