If he is in a straitened lot, where nothing can be accumulated; where, in sickness, he must forego medicine and a physician or run in debt for them ; where every mental invigoration or refreshment is cut off, every taste for the beautiful is denied, thirst for knowledge is despise...d, education of children i? made impossible, and life is in every way narrowed, depressed, aod cramped ; and if his wife or child is driven to the workshop, to be there overworked, under- 16 SOCIAL PROBLEMS AND THE CHURCH.
