HIS SYMPATHY FOR THE TOILERS.
It is Sad to Sec the Children in the

???
Labor and Capital. When will tbe
lung protracted struggle ceas.\ Away
bark in history there was a war that
lasted thirty years, but this war hai
lasted longer than that and s?cms to
grow more bitter as the years roll on.
In tlio good old times it did not atfeet
tiie south but like a pestilence it
spread and there seems to be n > remedy.
All of tiie women?most all the
men. outside of the capitalists?hav
heretofore sympathized with the to 1ers
iu their demands for less work an i
better pay. They have bitterly denounced
tbe heartless managers who
would wear out the life of a child before
it gets grown?who would keep
them caged in factories from ia ly
morn till lamplight, with n >t an honi
for recreation. No May day, no \ lay
day, no ball game, nor marbles, n r
fishing, nor frolic of any kind for t .o
boys; no hunting wild flowers or hi.o Itberries
for the girls, no youthiul pleasures.
no recess, no Saturday; but from
year to year it's
"Work?work?work, in the dull December
light.
And work?work?work, when the
weather is warm and bright."
How sad it is to see them toi! a3 if
in a treadmill, and to hear them sigh
as they glance from the windows o
their daily prison, and with longing
eyes, whisper
"Oh! but to breathe the l reatli o[ til
woods and 11 ?w?:rs sweet.
With the .sky above lr.y head and the
grass beneath my feet."
And Oils is sad. pathetic, and but for
hearties legislation and 1 gislatois,
would have long since been rente die !
It is the good side of human nature
that arouses sympathy for the poor,
and Yeigh Hunt never wrote a sweeter
line, than that of Abau Hen Adhctn's
plea for entrance into Paradise:
"Write me as one who loves his fellow
man."
In ruminating about the wants o*
the poor 1 have often thought that the
greatest want and the I. st 1 ion to a :
toiler was a home. Home?on - of the j
sweetest words in any language. Its
best definition is in the heart, for lan- |
guage fails to express it. Indeed there
are some languages that hav no word
for it -no synonym. The French has
none and suiistilues only an aim io or
dwelling place. The best definition
found in the old SanrUirt. the sa-rei
dialect of tli' Hindoos and Persian;;.
The word is Kshema and means a permanent
place of rest and s "curity. j
Would that all the poor, all the toilers, j
all the women and children in the land j
had that?a permanent abode?a place j
of rest and security. No landlord to
call for rents- no expiring lease, no uncertain
title; but a home where the
good wife can plant her own vines and
adorn her own yard with (lowers an l
feel that they are hers and her children's.
Why didn't Mr. Carnegie thinlc
of this and give homes to the poor,
instead of boobs. Fifty millions of dollars
would have given c unfcrtable
homes to one hundred thousand poor
families?and given a permanent place
of nxst and security to at least half a
million of the toilers. The time was
win 11 a Methodist preacher was not entitled
to a home no more than a Roman
Cathoiic priest was to a wife. He
must abide for a year in any hour.'
that was cheap and vacant. He must, b >
the exemplar of humanity and nn-< 1flshness.
for they said that the Sav or
wos horn in a manger and ni:; soft' si
bed was hay. Hut there is some lucre
scripture that demands the 1> st of everything
for the priesthood, and that
says; "Touch not My anointed, and d 1
My prophets no harm. A hotter c.vtllzntion
now provides a good comfortable
parsonage in almost every town
and village and I am -i t i of it. n U so
much for sympathy f.u* th > pr -eher,
but for his goo I. Ion r-mY ring an t
patient wife and h> growing chiHiu 11.
Woman loves her hone and lov ; to
adorn it with fruits and f wers. When
the Mothndis-f g^t p; ,ng enough to
build a parsonage they hoitld n it s. p
at the finishing of the h n:.;e, hut have
a permanent committe > of lide. to
plant vines and roses an 1 mak gravel
walks, and establish a garden w.tii
such tiiltigs that do not pass away and
perish with the year. Plant fruit t: ces,
make an asparagus bed and don't f >rgot
the strawberries and raspb rries,
and here and there plant som * of the
old time garden herbs, su-h as sage .vnd
balm and parsley and e.damns for a
sweet breath and mint for the children's
colic. Fix the place up for a
home and when the go d wife leaves it,
of course, she will have it clean and
leave it with regret, and her successor
will be happy and talk about h r successor
will be happy and talk about her
to the neighbors. If I was a bishop I
would allude to this at the general conference.
and lay much stress t.n what
John Wesley said, that "Clenalinoas
was next to Goldiness."
