of

succeeds in securing the passage of
a law declaring laziness a disease
and providing a compulsory cure,
she will have solved one of the
problems of the ages. She may
rightly termed a woman
courage, for her experience a
practical worker in philanthropic
fields should her familiar
with immensity of the task she
has under taken.
Yet there is some in
determining the course of reason-
that Mrs. followed in
deciding that laziness is a disease.
The who will not work is, ac-
cording to Genesis, striving to gt
around a divine injunction
decreed that only by the sweat of
the brow should eat. But la-
is an acquired, not a natural,
habit.
Still, the better a man is
harder will be The worse
be is the prone he is to live
off the sweat of some one else's
brow. Of course, the argument
may be made that this nay of look-
at the bread and prob
is purely a mental point of
View.
There will be some trouble in
making an division of
three kinds of men who will not
work because they find a
job to their liking. And, last of
all, but probably to Mrs. Do-
mind the most important
class of patients, are those who will
not work because the world
them a living.
Mrs proposes to cure
the diseases of laziness by
labor, preferable in a stone-
yard or over a saw buck. This
course of treatment is no rest cure
and so will probably lie considered
unfavorably by afflicted
Yet as the medicine
scribed by Mrs. will pay
for worth of provisions a
day for a married family,
the end might justify the means.
And as laziness is the
drains upon charities would be
materially reduced.
