EVIL ALWAYS IN lDLENEss
Much Truth In Japanese Proverb,
Which Should Read the Same
in All Languages.

There is an excellent proverb, which
has been handed down to one genera
ton after another of Japanese. 1t
ought to be in every language. 1t
runs thus: ITO do nothing is to do
evil" Perhaps it is this which makes
the Jap so busy. 1t is very hard to
catch him doing nothing. Even his
social intercourse is filled with things
to do. There is infinite bowling and
scraping and bending double before a
friend is properly greeted or tea is
properly served. But the proverb may
not be compelled to work so far as
the Japanese make it work in order
to do good. 1t is a question whether
the wise of this country realize as
they might, and as the wise should,
how evil it is to be idle. 1t is this
which leads the children of the city
into mischief. The houses are So close
together that they have lost the
chores which were once theirs. The
chores are done out on the farms or
by the city. 1t is idieness which is
the curse of the rich and of the poor.
Yet it is idleness which seems to be
the great desire OF the individuals of
our nation. in desiring it they desire
evil and they do not realize what it is
they wish.

Not Unlike People.

A noted naturalist states that one
of the strongest of animal instincts is
that of blind anger, the venting of
spite on inanimate things. For ex-
ample, animals caught in traps will
punish the sticks and stones that lie
conveniently near. 1t is the same i'm
pulse which occasionally causes a
grown person to kick a door against
which he has rammed his head.
But there are notable instances of
forbearance and patience. The wind
may blow away a robins nest time
after time. yet the bird apparently
never loses it's temper, but patiently
builds another one.
A western naturalist says that black
bears "act as some boys do on rainy
~Sundays-just as if they had nothing
but time. and the problem was how to
kill it," They will attempt 40 things,
finish none, and then sit down as If
saying, well, what shall we do next?"
Marriage is a tie, but some people
regard it merely as q slip knot.
