We would be taking more than our

effort. Sir Arthur predicts an almost
universal acceptance of spiritualism
in the United States within ten
years, but granting that he is right,
who will be the gainer? According
to the spiritualistic doctrine, as we
understand it, the Protestant, the
Roman Catholic, the Mahometan, the
Buddhist in brief, adherents of ev
ery faith all have an equal chance
for happiness in spirit land. The
one essential here below is spiritual
development, and the "heathen Chi
nee" is all right if he gets it from
the book of Confucius, or poor Lo ii
he is properly in- pirod by legends oi
the Happy Hunting Ground. So why
do not the spiritualists leave every
one else alone, to work out their fu
ture in their own way? The answer
is, of course, the universal human
tendency toward proselyting, which
now thanks be to an all-wise Prov
idence take on a much milder form
than the rack and thumb screw of the
Middle Ages.
The newspapers think it worth
while to report the case of a street
cleaner who never got round to get

a dav off until after fifteen years,
says Colliers' Weekly. That is wor

who works fifty weeks ought to have
the other two weeks off every year.
And that goes for the women, too.
We haven't noticed the papers play
ing up any of the numerous cases of
wives who have been doing hnuse
rlcaning and housekeeping for more
than fifteen years without a single
day off, in which to forget that they
are married.
