but the truth. You cannot enter into any Office
under government without solemnly pledging
yourself to perform your duties to the best Of
your power, saw in Congress a man with the
frosts of so winters on his venerable head, who
had been for Is or Is years member of Con
gress, yet that venerable man, John Quincy Ad-
ans, had each year in succession to swear, and
solemny pledge himself to support the Constitu-
ton of the United States, before he could take
his seat in the House of Representatives And
how is it in society? Why, young man can
not become a husband until he has soemny
pledged himself to do that which he has been
telling his girl for months that he would do =
and who ever heard of young man revolving al
the idea of making such pledge The
Hon. speaker concluded by saying that the free
dom Of this country was owing to pledge. Wher
the fathers of the Revolution, in l776, signed
the Declaration of Independence, they conclu
ded that noble document by solemnIy pledging
themselves, their lives, and their sacred honor.
There was no reason then why they SHOULD
not take the pledge; and if they valued the inst
tutions under which they lived, he called upoI
them by every consideration that could be ad
dressed to men, and patriots and freemen, t.
come up and pledge themselves to that withou
which everything in our institutions and our Con
stitution must dissolve like the baseless fabric o
vision. prolonged applause.)
The resolution was unanimously adopted.

lesson You can hardly begin to soon. One Of
the most successful parents that have known,
said that this point was usually settled between
him and his children before they were three
months old. But it requires constant care to
keep up the habit of obedience, and especially to
do it in such way as not to break down the
strength Of Childs character.
Teach your child to be diligent, The habit
of being always employed is great safeguard
through life, as well as essential TO the culture o
almost every virtue. Nothing can be more fool

Mle Beautiful Legend.

We find in late sermon of Theodore Parker,
the following story. The subject of the dis
course is ''Test;"
"They tell a story that one day Rabbi Judah
and his brethren, the seven pillars of Wisdom,
sat in the Court of the Temple on feast day dis
putting about rest One said that it was to have
attained sufficient wealth, yet without sin. The
second, that it was fame and praise of all men.
The third, that it was the possession of power to
rule the state. The fourth that it consisted on
y in happy home. The fifth, that it must be
in the old age of one who is rich, powerful, fa-
NOUS surrounded by children and children's
children. The sixth, said that all that were
vain, unless man keep all the ritual law Of
Moses. And Rabbi Judah, the venerable, the
taest of the brothers said, 'Ye have spoken
wisely, but one thing more is necessary, he only
can find rest who to all these things addeth this,
that he keepeth the tradition OF the elders
There sat in the Court fair-haired boy,
playing with his lilies in his lap, and hearing
the talk, dropped them in astonishment from his
hands and looked up-that boy of tweIve-and
said, Nay, nay, fathers, he only loveth rest, who
loves his brother as himself and God with his
whole heart and soul. He is greater than fame
and wealth and power, happier than happy
home, happy without it, better than honored age,
he is a law to himself and above all tradition
The doctors were astonished They said when
Christ cometh shall he tell US greater things
Aud they thanked God, for they said, the old
men are not always wise, yet God be praised
that out of the mouth of this young sucking, has
His praise become perfect"

Secret Of Unhappy Homes.

Why goes forth that man on Saturday even
ing, from the roof under which his children live!
WHY turns he from the engaging little attempts
to detain him, and roughly moves them away,
while he loves them dearly Why sits the mother
BY his fire, suen, disconnected, unwilling to speak
the kindly word, while his heart is yearning for
converse and enjoyment! Why flies the cruel
speech to her for whom the bosom's strongest af
lection is nourlshedl And why, searching into
deep depths, why does man become SO often a
tyrant, so often criminal in his home! Truth
has to be told but, oh! listen to it kindly, for ii
is hard to tell. 1t is because woman does not
truly appreciate her mission in domestic life
Under the present condition of existence, she has
become weighed down by cares. AS wife, she
is different from what she was as Mistress
She is employed in drudgery for her children and
household She neglects her Dress she forget;
her manners Her husband sees the change;
does not perhaps find sufficient excuse for it from
the condition she abors under. He flies to the
tavern and billiard table, and she increases in
sourness and aspersity as she increases in years
That much is owing to the present circumstances
Of social life is true; but that much of 1t is char
oeable TO a sad submission to those clrcum
Stances. is also but 100 true. 1t is more or les
in the power of women to make their domestic
life more attractive to their husbands, and NOR
holy in its discipline and ends, than they now do

The 0utrageS at Washington.

We wish to keep this subject before the minds
of our readers till we have impaired to them
something of the feelings that exist in our own
minds in regard to it. If the events which have
recently transpired at Washington, had taken
place in any Of the southern states, we should
view them in light somewhat different from
what we now do. True, in that case, we should
have deeply sympathized with the attempt made
by these 20 or so unfortunate Americans to
obtain rights of which they had been uniustly
deprived, and should have deeply regretted its
failure. So, in regard to the violence offered to
the freedom of the press, in the effort to drive
the Era and its editor from the District of Co.
lumba by force we should have looked upon it
as an outrage which ought to consign its perpc-
traitors to the penitentiary, even if it had hap
pened in the remotest corner Of the republic
But, that such things should occur at Washing
ton, excites our Indignation What is this Wash
ingon--this District Columbia! And how, and
by whom, and for what, was it dragged from its
native obscurityl 1t is the common capital OF
nation which proclaims to The world as the
prime article of its political creed, that all men
are created equal, and have an inalieuabie right.

when the strong oppressed the weak, and took
from them by force the produce of their soil,
justice rose up sorrowing, and leaving earth flew
back to heaven. And when the weak overcame
the strong with falsehood and deceit, and got
from them by cunning what they feared to take
by force, truth rose up sorrowng, and leaving
earth flew back to heaven. And when the in

Education of Children,

The restraint which accompanies obedience is
indispensable to moral improvement. The pro.
blem to be solved is TO make children obedient
and, at the same time, to leave them in full pos
session of their liberty and, in order to give a
religious character to all the acts of lle let chill
dren feel that, in submitting to reason, they are
submitting to God.
The time is now gone by, in which the philo-
sophy Of Locke was hailed and admired hence
forward, the qualities inherent in the mind must
be cultivated, developed, and improved. Know
myself, said the ancients, and know thy soul
which soul is represented in the revelation and
in the holy Scriptures as a breath Of the Divine
Spirit. 1t must be admitted that the soul has
faculties inherent to its nature, which faculties
are exercised, not formed by external relations
The ideas of truth, of justice, of goodness, Of
God, need not be forced on the memory, as they
exist in the human SOUL and rs arts and sciences
are rapidly advancing, as the wisdom of the an
cient philosophers is, comparatively speaking,
common to most individuals Of the present age,
why should not the great work Of education fol-
low the admirable progression of human i'm
provemenn
Let children be brought up by the medium Of
feelings and affections; let these feelings and af-
fections be converted into principles reveal to
children the existence Of their conscience; teach
them to listen to this inward monitor; they will
then learn to reflect in early life, which will al
ways be an incacuabIe advantage. Let child
rem, also, according to the words of the Prophet.
Trust to their own soul;' let them be made ac-
quanted with the true, the just, the beautiful,
and let each child retain its individuality, which
constitutes its own neculiar unuius Narrower
to render obedience essentially moral, it must be
an act Of free will, of submission to Just and ra-
tional command in order not to destroy selfes-
teen, confidence, and prudence; thus causing
the infant will to become, in able hands, pow
erful means of turning youthful activity to good
purposes. When the work has been thus happi-
ly commenced, it will be easily continued; and
the child brought up in the principles so earn
estly advocate, will be an enlightened, and an
exemplary Observation-Disclosures Ri9trey.

The Cultivation of Potatoes.

The cultivation of potatoes has become So
precarlous for the last four or five years, that it
may be of service to publish an account of ex-
perlmcnts, even if they have proved unsuccess-
full. will therefore state my experience, such
as it is, with hope that it will be of more or
less benefit to those engaged in the same calling
as myself
| have planted on a great variety of soils, in
GLIDING heavy clay loan, rich in animal and
vegetable matter, and on light, sandy Ioam.-
In the latter, have always succeeded in rails
ing sound potatoes, and consider such soil
the most certain Of producing a sound, healty
crop.
In 1915, planted my potatoes in April, May,
June, and July. Those planted in May, found
succeed BEST and the vines of those planted late
decayed early in September, soon after the young
tubers began to form.
On the 18th of May, 1916, planted an acre
of potatoes, on moist loan, suitable for growing
Indian corn. One part of the field, MANFRED
with newly-sacked lime; one with wood ashes;
one with charcoal; one with bone dust; one with
poudrette; and another part with plaster, lime,
ashes, and salt, mixed, The result was that the
largest yield and the least rot, occurred where

the hill.
Observing that the two rows of potatoes next
to the corn, which occupied part of the last
named field, were entirely free from disease, and
produced well, last season, u747,) IpIanted a
lot alternately, with two rows of corn, and two
rows Of potatoes, in the same field, manuring the
whole with lime in the hill. Those produced be-
tween the corn were all sound, and continue SO
to the present time, and were abundant in their
yield; whereas, the others, planted by themselves,
were more or less affected with disease. A por-
ton of the ground was SUBSIDIZED to the depth OF
Is inches On this part, the produce was one
third greater.
From my experience, as above, would re-
commend potatoes to be planted AMONG Indian
corn, in the month of May, in a light, sandy
loan, or some other dry soil, subsoiIed Is inches
deep, with gill of newly-slacked lime, applied
to each hill.-D. Amer. AgriCuturiSt.
