DISEASE. of the Alton Provident Association, 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. -AT- inn Prices Reduced On All Our Stock of Ala., June Dr. J. C. Sir.
