The Drinking-House Over the Way
(An Advertisement)
The room was so cold, so cheer
less and bare,
With its rickety table, and one
broken chair;
And its curtainless windows with
hardly a pane
To keep out the snow, the wind
and the rain.
A cradle stood empty, pushed to
the wall.
And someway that seemed the
saddest of all.
In the old rusty stove the fire
was dead;
There was ice on the floor at the
foot of the bed.
And there all alone a poor wom
an was lying,
No need to look twice to see she
was dying;
Dying of want, of hunger and
cold.
Shall I tell you her story, the
story she told? . . .
No, ma’am. I’m no better, my
cough is so bad,
It’s wearing me out, but that
makes me glad.
For it’s weariness living where
one’s all alone,
And heaven, they tell me, is just
like a home.
Yes, ma’am, Fve a husband, he’s
somewhere about,
I hoped he’d come in when the
fire went out;'
But I guess he’s gone where he’s
likely to stay,
I mean to the drinking-house ov
er the way.
’Twas pot so always, I hope you
won’t think
Too hard of him, lady, it’s only
the drink;
I know he’s kind hearted, and oh,
how he cried
For the poor little baby the morn
ing it died!
You see he took sudden, and grew
very tad,
For we had no doctor, our poor
little lad!
For his father had gone, never
meaning to stay,
I’m sure, to the drinking-house

RUTH KOFFMAN,
County Clerk
FRANK CRONK,
I Chairman
over the way.
And when he came home, it was
late at night
And 1 was sp tired and sick with
the fright
Of staying at home with the baby
alone,
And its cutting my heart with its
pitiful moan.
He was cross with his drink, poor
fellow, I know 0
It was that, not the baby that
bothered him so,
But he swore at the child as it
panting lay,
And went back to the drinking
house over the way.
I heard the gate slam, and my
heart seemed to freeze
Like ice in my bosom, and there
on my knees
By the side of the cradle, all
shivering I stayed;
I wanted my mother, I cried and
I prayed.
Yes, it was easy, his dying, he
just grew more white
^nd his eyes opened wide to look
for the light;
And his father came in, it was
just break of day;
Came in from the drinking-house
over the way.
Yes, ma’api, he- was sober, at
least, mostly, I think;
He often stayed that way to wear
off' the drink;
I know he was sorry for what he
had done,
For he set a. great store by our
one little son.
And straightway did he go to the
cradle bed where
Our baby lay dead so pretty and
fair.
I wondered how I could have
wished him to stay
Where there was a drinking
house over the way.
He stood quite a while, ma’am,
did not understand,
You see, till he touched the little
cold hand;
Oh, then came the tears, and he
shook like a leaf
And said it was drink that made
him all the grief.
Our neighbors were kind, and the
minister came,
And he talked of my seeing my
baby again,
And of the bright angels; I won
der if they
Could see in the drinking-house
over the way.
And I thought when our baby
was put in the ground.
And the man with the spade was
shaping the mound.
If only somebody would help me
to save
My husband who stood by my
side at the grave.
If only it were not so handy to
drink;
The men that made laws, ma’am,
sure didn’t think
Of the hearts they would break,
of the souls they would slay 1
When they licensed the drinking
house over the way.
I’ve been sick ever since, it can
not be long,
Be pitiful, lady, to him when I’m
gone;
He wants to do right, but you
never would think
How weak a man grows fond of
the drink.
And it’s tempting him here and
tempting him there,
Four places I’ve cbunted on this
very square
Where a man can get whisky by
night and by day,
Not to reckon the drinking-house
over the way.
There’s a verse in the Bible the
minister read,
No drunkard shall enter heaven,
it said;
And he is my husband and I love
him so,
And where I am going, I want
him to go.
Our baby and I will both want |
him there.
Don’t you think dear Jesus will
hear my prayer?
And please, when I’m gone, ask
some one to pray
For him at the drinking-house
over there.—Selected.
