TOOTH" was the basis of justice.
Then there arose,here and there.
a Portia to temper with mercy the
socalled justice which Shylock de-
handed.
And now we are beginning, not
only to season justice with mercy,
but to have larger conception of
justice.
Under the old methods of pun
ishment the state engaged in a
wholesale manner in the business
of making criminals.
Boys and men who committed
any offense which landed them in
Jail we're henceforth outcasts.
IF man served term in prison,
henceforth all avenues of employ
ment were closed to him.
The larger idea of justice shows
us that society is in degree re-
sponsible for it's criminals. And
the criminals react upon society.
Instead of being considered SIM
ply as rebellious chooser of evil,
the criminal is now regarded as
morally unbalanced and in many
prisons treated accordingly.
Efforts are being made to edu-
cate and train the minds and hands
of prisoners. Those who desire
to learn a useful trade are given an
opportunity to do so.-William =

THE MAIDS soLILOQUY.

A man or not a man: that is the question.
Whether tits better in this life to suffer
The sings aud arrows of the sewing circle
Or take man with seven bold kids to love me-
Without blessed virtue. To we'd, oh JOY!
To we'd! and by such act to say end
The old maids jibes and other natural knocks
That maids are heir to- it's contamination
Devoutly to be wished To we'd for life;
To hitch perchance to worse! Ay, there's the rub!
For in a marriage knot what ills may come
When one has given up single life,
Must give me pause. There's the respect
That makes this man. sweet man, 80 hard to please.
For who would bear the troubles of fiat
The husbands tongue, the landlord and the rent day.
The smell of neighbours meals the pays delay
The insolence of tradesmen, their tough deals,
When myself might the quietness have
OF nv fond parents homer Who'd stay in my shoes
But that the dread of life much per,
THAT miserable problem to us born
Which makes the swain and glad-faced girl-lover
Think and think all day. puzzles the will
And makes me rather lead the life do
Than lead another that know not of.
Thus wedding day makes towards OF us all
And thus the happy thought OF doing better
Is sioked DER with thought of gloomy things
When landlords ugly movers pitch and tumble
The barreled brica- brac and boxed up glass;

Few use the grand prerogative of mind.
