I am only try- ing to explain it. I blame a. man not so much for getting drunk as I blame him for being satisfied right along with low pleasures of this sort, instead of trying to reach up {or the better sort that yields the same, re- creative reqults without bringing in their train evil and misery THE POOR MAN IS SAID 1'0 DRINK - MERBLY T0“ VARY‘ HIS EXISTBNCB Granting that the average man must. have pleasure of some sort, once and so often, is it to be wondered at then, when all things else are denied him, that, the chap drinks himself in- to a, forgetfulness of his condition ? machinery and the specialization of labor, no one man turns out the whole of a thing, but only a very small part of it. Practically no ar- tisan in these times can hold up for you to appreciate a complete product of his own handiwork and say “That is mine. and I am proud of’it." In the second place, you’ve herded him and his family, like cattle, into roo- keries and basements on foul, dark alleys, thereby depriving him of the happiness that comes from creating and owning a home. Again. you've set him to work young, with little or no education, which dehars him and the delights of a richly stored mind. Still again because of his long hours, you’ve made it largely impossible for him to get away from the ugliness of the city and to know what it is, instead. to see the beau- tiful in God's world out under the blue. For sports, which furnish a safety value for the surplus animal energy for so many men, he has neiâ€" ther the time nor the place. Friend- ships oi the right kind are denied him because he has no home to which he may invite those for whom he may care. and a club is out of the question. The best plays at the the- atres are too costly for him, likewise travel, and museums and libraries are beyond his appreciation. DRINK IS LEFT Thus, you see, one after another those forms of pleasure that are wholesome and harmless are placed absolutely beyond his power to to enjoy. What is left ? Drinkâ€"drink, because of the carnal pleasure it yields, because of its power to drive sordid memories and facts out of the mind and to replace them by a. rosy- hued world of the imagination, and drink, because it can be had at a clean, inviting, sociable saloon, the poor man’s club, and the only place where he-can- have a quiet chat with his fellowmen. For just so much as you grind a man down and take the decent things of life aWay from him, just so much he is bound to get. what consolation 3.; can out of the indecent. things. many creature comforts oflthe world above him, resorts to, grog ; the western cowboy tries to keep in a. passable humor with his rough ex- istence by gambling, the sweat-shop worker by immorality, and the gold- prospector by fighting. It Would seem that the harder a man’s lot, was in life, the more desperate he was to square things by a. reckless indul- game in whatever pleasure was at hand. Take it nearer home, if you will. and in the case of the poor man. See what has happened in the large cities where the ordinary laborer is of no more account in the great scheme of things that surrounds him than is the smallest fish in the sea. To be- gin with you’ve taken the joy of Cree.- tive work away from him, for 11mm- days, because of the introduction of _v_â€" ~ I I have always had a. way a! belle?- ‘ing that he did it, not because he *deliberately chose to do wrong, or because by his own act he Was will- ing to increasethe sum total of evil and misery in the world, but because drink was about the only kind of pleasure within his reach. Pleasure- that is the thing you have got to al- low for in nearly every man's life, and. oddly enough, that is the very thing we most commonly overlook. The average individual can't get along without a certainnmount of pleasure, or excitement, or relaxe- tion, or changeâ€"call it what you will, but whatever it is human na- ture craves it. and if it can't be got in one way it will in another. TO BREAK MONOTONY What happens to boarding schools where excessive strictness of disci- pline prohibits the normal pleasures of youth ? They turn out lads of the type who later sow more wild oats than the boys who have never been unduly repressed. What does the Chinaman, practically exiled from his country and the slave of It ng monotonous laundry hours do ? He gets even with fate by smoking op- ium and dreaming dreams of a fairer world.

Overlooking the jawing wife and the slump in stocks, the writer accounts for the poor man's resort to grog as follows : HE IS DENIED MUCH Tell Jul-Illa, Pearson and Mulligan (Burli's Falls Arrow.) A large hear was Seen by Mr. Geo. House in his barnyard, .Chapumn Valley, lately, , in chase or a pig, which he captured and hugged prepar. atory to killing and eating it. One of the neighwrs fired a. shot at it, xbut killed the pig in place of the 1hear, which marched of! to the woods jreturning at midnight to break the higsty,_aud- steal another pig. The next day Mr.- Bruin was seen by a settler. but got ofl' again. A watch is to be kept in that same barnyard for capturing and kilflng the crew- ture. Other bears have been seen or‘ are known to have been in the neigh- borhood, attacking sheep or carrying them off.

A .' Mrs. M. Doolittle and her two chil. dren left on Wednesday to join Mr. Doolittle in his new home in King. They were good citizens and will be missed by a large circle of friends but _we wish them health and pup- perity in their new home The boating season has been keep- ing up well. Last week the “Bea- ver.” “Empire" and three large scows all in dock at once made our wharf look like a head fur shipping. Capt. C. W; Burgoyne had the “Kb:- wartha." out on three flays last. Week. On Friday he went up to Lindsay, from there to (0“oconk. and Was back at Fenelon Fans in time {or the 4.30 pm. train. Not. bad ! Mrs. C. W. Burgoyne was “At.

The wri- ter of these lines sympathizes with Mr. and Mrs. Barr and their sons as only those can who have seen the one deareSt on earth taken from them in even a more sudden manner. These terrible visitations always remind one of Cowper’s lines ' "Blind unbelief is sure to err, And scan His works in vain ; God is His own interpreter, And He will make it plain." The only consolation is that our loss is their gain; The jay is theirs and the dumb grief and pain is the por- tion of those left behind in this vale of tears. May we all live our lives ol tears. May we all live our lives so as to be ready to join them when our DVD time comes.- Mr. J. Jones. jr.. has moved into his newly erected house. When paint- ed and finished it will be an exceed- irgly pretty residence. The many friends of Mr. B. H. Maybee are deeply grieved by his con- tinued illness. Dr. Wilson of Fens- lon Falls and Dr. ficAlpine of Lind- say are doing all in their power for him and we trust that their efforts will be successful; All that love and money can suggest is being done and as there seem! some improve- ment this,_week his friends hopes are raised that he may soon be out of danger. , During the summer and fall of 1902 a number of very sad and exceeding- ly sudden deaths have taken place and their number was increased on last Saturday morning by the death of Miss Estella Barr at her father’s residence. Miss Barr had been at- tacked by a faint a week previous. but was supposed to be so far reoOV- ered, that on Tuesday her father left for the shanties north of Kinmount. She became worse on Friday nkht and expired peacefully on Saturday about 3 p.m. Miss Barr was a lady that to know Was to love. Her loss will be felt by a very large circle of friends, her Sunday school class. the The sacrament of the Lord's supper will be observed in St. Andrew's church on Sunday next. A union preâ€"communion service will be held in the Methodist church on Friday evening. Half the village is oil to the woods ready for Saturday.
