Why Should Any One Work?
The Patfnder.)


Coal miners now demand a six
hour day and five-day week, and
Hlso raise OF GO per cent in wages.
Why work at all? Why bother to
ret al sweity and back? Why not
merely take your money and have
all your time to yourself? What's
he use Of working when by simply
combining together you can get any
hing you want: Work is old-fash-
:oned and out Of date. Labor is a
curse anyway. The ideal life is loaf
:ng.' Let the tramp and the Stacker
ne your models henceforth; they
:oi! not, neither do they spin. If
others are fools enough to work, let
them do it; but you have risen su-
perior to that. So start right in by
not working to-day. Strike and loaf.
The world owes you a living and
you should worry. If you want more
money any time, just take it wher-
ever you find it; and when the sup
ply is gone just have the government
print more, so there will be enough
for everybody to help themselves
How strange that this plan has never
been thought of before. So simple

"Dynamiting" bile out Of your

ing the bowels with the digestive
