i ir nl f i S i i TWENTY FOURTH YEAR They Never Strike There ia one clas9 of laborers who never strike and seldom complain Thoy get up at iive oclock in the morning and do not go back to bed until tun or eleven at night They work without ceasing the whole of that time and re ceive no other emolument than food and the plainest clothing They understand something of every branch of economy and labor from finance to cooking Though harassed by a hundred respon sibilites though driven and worried though reproached and looked down up on they never revolt and they cannot organize for their own protection Not even sickness releases them from their posts No sacrifice is deemed too groat for them to make and no incompetency in any branch of their work is excused No essays or books or poems are written in tribute to their steadfastness They die in the harness and are supplanted as quickly as may bo These are the house keeping wives of the laboring men If these women had the time to rest which their husbands spend in dram shops and dissipation and if they had the money to apend which their husbands squander on liquor and tobacco they would bright en their homes with comfort and sun shine rear their children in respectabil ityand cause lifes desert to rejoice and blossom like the garden of theLord Communicated CITY CHURCH ANNOUNCEMENTS Christian Sunday school at 10 and Christian
