stand how a uian can be wicked

one of their sweet results had been
that some of the families enslaved
to those delectable institutions
never saw auy money from one
year's eud to another. They were
continually iu debt at the comitany
store; whatever they needed they
must get at the company store;
the only inheritance they could
leave to their children was this life
long and hopeless account at the
company store. Even when the
purchases were made at reasonably
fair prices the thing was a swin
dle. The employer owned the
store. He therefore iu effect paid
the men ' in goods at retail
prices that be had bought at whole
sale price. Hut the cases where
the prices were reasonable were
few, and where the employer made
diligent use of his opportunity the
gauie was burglary. Some years
ago, wheu I was investigating the
anthracite coal mines of Pennsyl
vania, I found that the run of
prices at the company's store av
eraged thirty tier cent higher than
Ibev should have been, and the
miners were coaiiielled to buy at
those prices or be discharged. At

The Spoiled Child.
Iu "The Autobiography of An
Ouly Child," iu the Noveinls-r
hvcrylMMiy'R,the anonymous writer
sums up Iter casu iu the following
fashion :
'In spite of lielter judgment I
fear every one of us who are onl
children in bis heart likes himself,
having iu short a monopoly of his
parents. Aud that is Ix-cause we
are, most or us, hihiich1, as is the
common report aUnit us. 'He is a
sweet-tempered child,' they say,
'but spoiled;' meaning that he is
imperious, selfish, self-willed;
meaning, in fact, that be hits uot
had normal aud necessary opposi
tion. Indulgent parent atv, quite
capatilo of spoiling thus half a
dozen, but it seems sad to say that
the child's chances of remaining
unspoiled, iu spile of his parents,
increase with the iiuiuIht of his
brothers and sisters, because his
parents' attention cannot lie cen
tered on liim, and the conditions
thus become more nearly normal.
'Conversely, it is almost im
possible for an only child to remain
unspoiled, however wise bis parents
merely because the conditions of
his life cannot be normal. Inevi
tably, he is overemphasized; in
evitably, his wishes too ol'teu con
trol; he is not forced to make a
sufficient number of adjustments
to others, and so misses bis full
efficiency. This, and uot his lone
liiiess, is the ueeja-r reason foe re
garding the only child's Christmas
and his solitary playroom as pa
thetic. From out of my gwu ex
