Book Description
This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1892 edition. Excerpt: ...take all the work he can get and still work very irregularly; but there are others who are either constitutionally lazy or with whom the habit has become engrained, who do not care to work more than three or four days a week. Nor would more money come to the home if they earned it. If such men make more they drink more. Laziness of this type is an important cause of poverty, and hence of pauperism sooner or later, though it would hardly appear on our lists. Some of those who ask aid from lack of work belong to this category. if it were not for drink, sickness and old age could be better met. Drink must therefore be accounted the most prolific of all the causes; and it is the least necessary. It is hardly too much to say that it is principally a matter of fashion. Amongst the upper classes the fashion of drinking has passed or is passing away. Amongst the middle classes it is accepted rather as a social necessity than as a desirable personal indulgence. Men meet and adjourn for a drink, to which one must treat the other, but which both would as soon, or perhaps rather, be without. Drinking to excess is no pleasure to any one. Amongst the poor, men drink on and on from a perverted pride. The whole thing is so baseless that it is conceivable it might very rapidly come to an end. The cure lies, I think, not so much in a total abstinence propaganda---though that is indirectly useful--as in the raising of the whole standard of life. Laziness Unwillingness to work is closely connected with self-indulgence in other ways, and there is no known cure except the pressure of "neither shall he eat." Men who never work when it can be avoided, if without property, usually drift into pauperism unless they have relations to sponge upon, or a wife...
