W;-JONES, WHOLESALE BUTTER MERCHANT, ,38, QUEEN STREET, AUCKLAND.' , 'OLD AGE PENSIONS.' MANY "good people believed that it •WaS quite a simple matter for Parliament to give all our old folks a pension after reaching 65 years of age; but lawmaking, like any other science, is not as easy as it looks. And there have been more obstacles discovered in the path of this well-intentioned measure than there are persons qualified to draw pensions. The well-being of the aged poor and needy is the recognised duty of those better able to battle with life, and what 'Tom Hood wrote fifty years ago does not apply to-day— ' 'When he is forsaken, Withered and shaken, What can an old man do but die?' The sticking-point which the Parliamentarians have found so difficult is >• where to draw the line between deserving and undeserving claimants to pensions, ihe distinction at present is ■ decidedly Vague; it is 'that he is not notoriously of drunken and immoral habits.' This is very obscure, for even Judges and Magistrates have failed to define the exact meaning of 'drunken/ there are so many grades, beginning with 'sampling,' and through the condition of being 'three sheets in the wind,' and lighting one's pipe at an electric lamp globe. •£? wi, a VeryYcry sirn Pl(2 clause would have made the Act so clear that even a Chinaman would have made no mistake about it., Sdmething of this Sort:— WHEREAS it is equitable that all the deserving aged in the colony should receive pensions, and .WHEREAS it has been established, by the experience of ages, that drunkenness and immorality are the prime causes of poverty; and WHEREAS it has further been demonstrated that the general use of SURATURA: TEA has had a beneficent effect on humanity in general: BE it therefore enacted—That the Registrar shall issue pension certificates to all applicants who can produce proof of having habitually, used SURATURA TEA fo£ T &P» e£i°s!. ? f two years ah"", upwards. .
