His industry was great, if not
his talent. BY the time he was
sixteen years old huge, fat roll
of terrible figure studies from the
life class was hidden away in the
attic. Joe had become so en-
thusiastic in the pursuit of art
that he had almost forgotten the
prudish point of view of the Phi
listines. DR.. Hopbottom still
preached asceticism flor others,
gesticulating with his pie, and
still his fat increased. Still he
preached the simple life, the re-
nunciation of the flesh, the
temptation of the senses.
One night Joe and his friend
left a vaudeville theater in
shocked disgust at the row of
bold females in scant costumes
who were performing a vulgar
burlesque. As he went out, he
saw DR.. Hopbottom's unctuous,
grinning face in the audience,
his eyes devouring the charms of
the actresses.

THE second epoch, that of his
childhood, between the ages
of four and eight, was somewhat
clearer in his mind, although there
were many gaps he could never
account for. He was living in
South Boston, and now his name
was Michael O'Shea. His scarlet
hair had gained for him among the
children of his street the easy so
briquet of Freddy; and at first
he had not consented to the name
without many savage protests.
Living with an uncle and an aunt,
the O'Sheas, hard by the Blind
Asylum, his life was a street ur-
chin's career of conflict and rowing,
with intermittent enforced sessions
at the primary school. He roamed
from the Point to the Dover Street
Bridge; he knew the docks to the
last pile, from the land and from
the water; he felt, too often, the
missile of an opponent gang,
SNOWFALL inclosing a rock. Of his
lineage he heard only that his
mother had been a millhand in
Fitchburg, and that his father had
died at sea. This information, en-
broidered by diverse details which,
little by little, he perceived as lies,

Lent Begins March 1.

Lent comes in with March this year
for Ash Wednesday is March 1 and
Easter will be April 49, This covers a
period of forty six days, exclusive of
Easter, which is not a part of Lent.
On the face this does not look right as
Lent has but forty days, but when it is
considered that Sundays are in Lent but
not Of Lent, but are counted as feast
days, and as the period between March
1 and April Is contains six Sundays, the
count comes right.

STRIKES.

The impression of the preva-
lence of strikes is exaggerated.
Most persons fail to recognize
that they are exceptional The
average wOrkingman loses less
than one day a year in this way.
A strike lasts just twenty-three
days on the average, and the av-
erage employer carries on his
business just thirty years with
out a strike. 1t can no more be
said that labor unions desire
strikes because they are ready
for them than that the United
states wants war because it has
a large fleet and army. Union
ism has made its mistakes, but
the life Of man is short and evO-
luton is sure. There will be
the ebb and flow, and the move
ment is onward and upward
