Whate'er we be, King. Subject, Clod,
We're Partners all of US of God.
In days of joy, in hours of stress,
We're out upon His business
He's placed His matters in our care,
In weather foul, in weather fair,
And whate'er profits are to be
Are ours to share in lavishiy.
Profits of Love, and smiling Grace;
Profits of Power, Fame, and Place,
According TO the manner we
Conduct our Agency.

Contradictory Negligence.
BY JOHN, d. BARRY.

In the excitement of work it takes an excep-
tiona kind of worker to be careful about his tools
to test the ladder he steps on, the rope or the
chain he uses. Often he does not even stop to
think of the risk. Maybe the foreman is driving
him like mad. The workman works on in the ex-
element of some task that demands violent out
put of energy. In his absorption he forgets every
think but the task. Suddenly something happens
and he is hurled to his death, or he finds leg or
arm chopped off, or he receives the head or the
breast blow that incapacitates him for life.
Under these circumstances it seems hardly gen.
erous for an employer to complain of "contribu-
tory negligence"

Everybody will commend the motives of those
