Frontmatter: Common Sense, Terms of Subscription. News: Duty! Thou Great, Thou Exalted Name!, At a Quarter past Seven in the Morning, I Commenced Work, Which Was in a Cellar, Ten Feet Underground, Six Gas Jets Burning the Whole of the Day, If This Country Is to Be Protected from Serious and Pressing Dangers, Some Remedy Must Be Sought for the Inequality of Conditions so Clearly Brought to Light by You, and Some Means Must Be Found for Making Life More Hopeful for the Industrious Poor, The Lukewarm, and Those Who Do Not Work Sincerely and Humbly, Will Be Rejected by God, Character and Circumstance, To Contributors, No Thoughtful Person of Any Class Can Be Contented or Can Avoid Grave Misgivings and Apprehensions When He Reflects That Every Twentieth Inhabitant Is a Pauper, The Effects of Shop Labour of the Kind Named on Females under 21, and on Males under 21, Is of Necessity Injurious, as Impeding Their Growth, and the Natural Development of the Organs of the Body, Special Notice, But Suppose Again, In the Workhouse of the Parish of Liverpool the Whole Average Cost Per Inmate, for "Provisions and Necessaries" and "Clothing" for the Year Ending Lady Day, 1885, Amounted to Three Shillings and Three Halfpence Per Week, What Is Human Life, in the Great Majority of Instances, but a Mere Struggle for Existence?, The Fact of the Assistants in Shops Having to Stand Entirely Is Very Injurious, to Young People Particularly, The Following Extracts Are Taken from the Evidence Given before the Select Committee on the Shops Hours Regulation Bill Which Is Contained in the Blue Book of 18th May, 1886, Sir Thomas Chambers Is Possibly One of Those Whose Gratitude Consists in a Lively Sense of Favours to Come, but in Case This Should Meet the Eye of an Alderman, We Append Some Instances of the Development of Peace Which May Help Him to Digest His Next Dinner, No Spectacle Is More Alarming than That Which England Presents, in the Midst of That Opulence Which at First Dazzles the Eye, But It May Truly Be Said That Men Too Much Conversant with Office Are Rarely Minds of Remarkable Enlargement, It Is Impossible for Me to Find Language Strong Enough to Convey a Hundredth Part of the Mischief Which I Have Seen Arise from the Excessive Hours of Labour of Shop Assistants Who Have Been under My Professional Care, They Eat and Drink and Scheme and Plod and Go to Church on Sunday, The Age of Chivalry Is Not over, It Is Dawning Now in His Present Generation, La Vie Des Oisits E'est La Seule Qui Coute Cher, Peutètre Mème Il Est Un Vol Social Que De Consommersans Rien Produire, If Nothing but Evil Can Come from Neglected Indifference, from Indiscriminate Almsgivings, from Panic-Stricken Legislation, from Socialistic Revolution, Are We to Sit Still and Do Nothing?, It Is the Great Error of Reformers and Philanthropists of Our Time to Nibble at the Consequences of Unjust Power, Instead of Redressing the Injustice Itself, Referring to the Sheaf-Binding Reaper of Hornsby, of Grantham, One User Writes, The Working-Class Is the Only Class Which Is Not a Class, It Has Been Declared by Social-Democrats That the Starvation Wages Paid to Girls and Women Are a Shame and a Curse to Our Civilization, Oh! the Jubilee!, Britons Never, Never, Never, Will Be Slaves, How We Form Character Now, Expensive Apostles, The Blind Reverence for Things Ancient Is Indeed so Foolish That It Might Make a Wise Man Laugh, If It Were Not Also Sometimes so Mischievous That It Would Rather Make a Good Man Weep, It Should Be Inferred That among Social Causes, Those Initiated by Legislation, Operating with Average Regularity, Must Not Only Change Men's Actions, but by Consequence, Change Their Natures, The Social Revolution of China, To Die Be Given Us, or Attain!, Good and Bad Results Cannot Be Accidental, but Must Be Necessary Consequences of the Constitution of Things, and It Is the Business of Moral Science to Deduce from the Laws of Life, and the Conditions of Existence, What Kinds of Actions Necessarily Tend to Produce Happiness, and What Tends to Produce Unhappiness, Some Men Do Not Believe in the Power of Education; They Do Not Think We Can Speak to the Divine Sentiments in Man, and Do Not Try, Weekly Expenses of a Farm Labourer with Wife and Three Children, Philanthropy, as Contradistinguished from Justice, Is Rather an Unreflecting Feeling than a Rational Principle, What Is to Be Done?, Worth Remembering, On the Average, in the Busy Season, I Have Been at Work till Eleven O'Clock at Night from Eight in the Morning for Six Months, as a Rule, and Sometimes Seven Months in the Year, The Hours in the Entering Room of a London Wholesale Establishment, in My Case, Were, in the Busy Season, (about Six Months in the Year) from Eight in the Morning till 11 at Night on the Average, The Price of Progress, Multiple News Items, Your Business Is to Go to Him and Say, "Here Is a Wrong, Right It", A Boy or a Girl Employed 14 Hours a Day Would Absolutely Require Eight Hours Sleep as a Minimum, My Wife's Sister Was in a Shop at Bow; She Was Employed from 7 O'Clock in the Morning till 10 O'Clock at Night the First Five Days in the Week, until 12 O'Clock on Saturdays, and She Was at Work on Sundays as Well, A Deep, Half-Confessed Sense of the Injustice of Life Is Becoming the Living Creed of Men Who Curse the God of the Churches and the Rich, Our National Wealth, Men Who Would Not Dream of Offering Starvation Wages to a Kitchen-Maid, or Even to a Clerk, Acquiesce Resignedly to the Supposed Necessities of the Market, Which Involve the Cutting down of Prices to a Point Only Reconcilable with the Bankruptcy of the Dealer or the Starvation of the Worker; and as They Do Not Intend to Become Bankrupt, They Do Intend to Starve Their Fellow-Citizens—Beginning, I Must Admit, with the Women, And the Blacks Are Emancipated over the Water There—And This Is What You Call "Having Your Own Way Here, Is It?", The Teachings of Experience, Le Plaisir Rend I'ame Si Bon, It Is a Law of Human Progress That Thought Tends to Work Itself Clear, The Patrimony of a Poor Man Is in the Strength and Dexterity of His Hands, and to Hinder Him from Employing This Strength and Dexterity in What Manner He Thinks Proper, without Injury to His Neighbour, Is a Plain Violation of This Most Sacred Property, The Average Wages of Young Assistants up to the Age of 18 Are about £12 a Year, Questions That Require Answers, Dream, O Youth! Dream Manfully and Nobly, and Thy Dreams Will Be Prophets. Editorial: We Live in a Market Where Is Only so Much Wheat, Wool, or Land, and If I Have so Much More, Every Other Must Have so Much Less, We Find That There Is Scarcely One Statute Connected with the Administration of Public Relief Which Has Produced the Effect Designed by the Legislature, and That the Majority of Them Have Created New Evils, and Aggravated Those Which They Were Intended to Prevent, Sauce for Geese and Ganders, "We Have Been Suffering for a Century from an Acute Outbreak of Individualism, Unchecked by the Old Restraints, and Invested with Almost a Religious Sanction by a Certain Soul-Less School of Writers", The First Step Must Be to Rid Our Minds of the Idea That There Are Any Such Things in Social Matters as Abstract Rights, It Comes in so Many Forms in This Life of Ours the Knowledge That There Is Something Sweetest and Noblest, of Which We Despair, and the Sense of Something Present That Solicits Us with an Immediated and Easy Indulgence, To Provide for Us in Our Necessities Is Not in the Power of Government, Our National Poverty. Business: The Fund Available for Those Who Live by Labour, Tends, in the Progress of Society, While Growing Actually Larger, to Become a Constantly Smaller Fraction of the Entire National Wealth, Did They Really Mean It?.
