LIVE STOC1C
Toronto, Nov. 1 -There was a fair
run of cattle offering at the Western
Market this Inoreing as far as quanti-
ty went. but the quality of the
stock was again poor. Trade on
this account, was slow in some lines,
although for the better cattle thercu
was a good demand. Quotations
generally are about steady.
Export Cattle -There were praati-
cally no exporters on,the market. One
or two pdor lots were offering, - but
they sold as heavy feeders. The mar-
ket is dull and prices are !Quoted un-
changed. 1.,:•'xtra choice are quieted at.

mand for good butchers' at top quo-
tations, but -the offerings of the class
are of rotigh to --orninon grade' arid

rieties. Quotations are about steady.
So it g7""'n..".."'.'"."'".....es on from day to day.
Every night the struggling victim
promises himself that be will break
the babit and next day when he feels
a little bad (as he is quite sure to)
breaks, not the habit, but his own
resolution. It is nearly always a
tough fight, with disaster ahead sure
if the habit wins.
There eave been hundreds of thou-
sands of people driven to their
graves through disease brought on
by coffee drinking alone. and it is
quite certain that more human mis-
ery is caused by coffee and tobacco
than by whiskey, for the two first
are more widely used, and more hid-
den and insidious in the effect on
nerves, heart and other vital organs,
and are thus unsuspected until much
of the dangerous work is done.
Nwo, Reader, what is your opinion
as to the real use the Creator has
for these things? Take a look at
the question from this point of view.
There is a law of Nature and. of
Nature's God that things slowly
evolve from lower planes to higher,
a Sturdy, steady and dignified, ad-
vance toward more ISerfect things in
both the Physical and Spiritual
world. The ponderous tread of evo-
lutionary development is fixed by
the Infinite and will not he quick-
ened out of natural law by any of
man's methods.
Therefore we see many illustrations
showing how nature checks too rapid
advance. Illieois raises phenomenal
rops of corn for two or three years.
f she continubdl to do- so every year
or farmers would advance in wealth
ar be3rond those of other sections or
ountries. So Nature interposes a
ar every three or near years and
rings on a "bad year."
Here we see the leveling influence
t work.
A man is prosperous in his business
or a number of years and grows
ich. Then Nature sets the "leveling
nfluence" at work on him. Some
f his investments lose, he becomes
uxurious and lazy. Perha..es it is
-hiskey, tobacco, cohee, women,
ambling, or soine other form. The
ntent and purpose is to level him.
Keep him from evolving too far
ahead. of the masses.

But Dame Nature sets her army: of
'levelers" at work. Luxury, ,over-
eating and drinking, licentiousness;
waste and extravagance indulgences
of all kinds, then comes the wreck.
Sure, Sure, Sure.
.7717 -'"""---he law of the unit is the law of
the mass. Man goes through the
same process. Weakness (in child-
hood), gradual growth of strength,
energy, thrift, probity, prosperity,
wealth, comfort, ease, relaxation,
self-indulgence, luxury, idleness,
waste, debauchery, disease, and the
wreck follows. The "levelers'. are
in the bushes along the pathway of
every successful man. and woman
and they bag the majority.
Only now and then can a man
stand out against these "levelers"
and hold his fortune, latTle and
health to the end.
So the Creator has use for Whis-
key, Tobbeco and Coffee to level
down the successful ones and those
who show signs of being successful,
and "keep them back in the race, so
that the great "neld" (the masses)
may not be left too far behind.
And yet we must admit that same
all wise Creator has placed it in the
power of man to stand upright,
clothed in the armor of a clean cut
steady mital and say unto himself,
"I decline to exchange my birthright
for a Mess of potage.",
"1 will not deaden my senses,
weaken my grip on affairs and keep
myself cheap, commau and behind in
fortune and 'fame ,by drugging-,withwhiskey, tobacco h or coffee, life - is
too short.- It is hard enough to win
tho good things, without any sort of
handicap; so a man is certainly a
"fool. trader" when h&" -trades
strength, health, money, and the
good things that came with power,
for the half -asleep condition of the
"(hugger" with the certainty of sick-
ness and disease ahead."
It is a, matter each individual
must decide for himself. 1 -To can be
a leader and semi -god if he will, or
he coal go along through life a drug-
ged clown, a cheap "hewer of wood
oe carrier of water."Certain it is that while the Great
Father of us all does not seem (
"mind' if some of his children are
foolish. and stupid, he seene3 to select
others (perhaps those he intends for
some special work) and allows them
to be threshed and castigated most
fearfully by these "levelers."

When it man tries to live 'upright,
clean, thrifty, sober. and =drugged,

what the Creator intends he should,
happiness, health and peace seem to
come to him. Does it pay?
