To break off bad habits, under
stand the reason and all the reasons
why the habit is injurious. Study
the subject until there is no linger.
ing doubt in your mind. Avoid the
places, the persons and the thoughts
that lead to the temptation. Ere.
quent the place, associate with the
persons, indulge in thoughts that
lead away from the temptation
Keep busy idleness is the strength
Of bad habits. Do not give up the
struggle when you have broken
your resolution once, twice, thous.
and times. That only shows how
much need there il for you to strive.
When you have broken your resolu-
ton, just think the matter over, and
endeavor to understand why it is
you failed, so that you may be on
your guard against recurrence OF
the same circumstances. Do not
think that it is an easy thing that
you have undertaken. II is folly to
expect to break of bad habit in a
day which may have been gathering
for long years.

him. With the resolute courage of
his race, he gladly promised that he
would plow and sow, cut wood, and
milk the cows, if she would only
keep the farm. So this brave moth
er and her son commenced their
work. She sold part of the farm,
and paid every dollar of the debt.
Thomas procured q horse, plowed,
and sowed and planted. The moth
er, with her own hands, split the
rails and completed the fencing.
But the harvest was still far away,
and the corn was running low. The
mother carefully measured her pre-
cious grain, counted the days to the
reaping time, and finding that it
would be exhaused long before that
time at their present rate of con-
sumption, she resolved to live on
two meals day herself that her
children might not suffer. Then, IS
the little store rapidly disappeared,
she ate but a single meal herself,
concealing her self-denial from her
children, until the blessed harvest
brought relief. That year it was
very abundant, and the wolf of
hunger never came SO near their
door again. .
Still, there many years of hardship
and self-denial, In which the brave
woman had to be father and mother,
teacher and preacher to her chill
dren. She was the wise and tender
friend, guiding them in the right
way, and inspiring them to choose
the best things in life. She still
lives to see her great reward, "and
her children rise up and call her
blessed"
The nations capital. honored as it
has been by noble women, has never
received within its doors a grander,
more heroic, and nobler woman than
it will have in the person of the
mother of President Garfield, and
she is not only an object of the
nations admiration, but the recip-
lent of its homage.

Loving Home.

Nothing to us appears 80 beauti-
full in human experience as the re-
ciprocal affection of parents and
children, especially after the latter
have attained maturity, and, it may
be, formed new relations in life. We
have seen the loving and lovely
daughter, after she had become a
wife and mother, seize every oppor-
tunity of visiting the paternal home
to lavish her affectionate attention
upon her parents, and, by a thou
sand graceful and tender kindnesses,
assure them that though she was an
idolized wife and happy mother,
her heart still clave with ever
strengthening feryor to father and
mother who watched over her in
fancy and guided her youth. 1t has
been our privilege to know such,
and as we have witnessed the out
pourings of love and happiness be-
tween these devoted and glowing
hearts, we have felt that surely much
Of heaven might be enjoyed here if
all families were equally attached.
And would that every daughter
knew what pure joy she might create
in the parental bosom by constant
keeping alive of the spirit of filial
devotion, and seizing frequent op-
portunities to make it manifest in
little acts of gentleness and love,
notwithstanding the child may have
become parent. 1t is always the
same dear child, and never so dear
as when it keeps up the childish con-
fidence and love of its earliest youth.

Cruelty TO Sailors.
MANY WRONGS THAT ARE INFLICTED UPON
THE SONS OF THE SEA.

The San Francisco Union SAYS : IT is
very difficult to obtain seamen in San
Francisco at present, though high pre-
miums are being offered. The reasons
for this state of things are complex, but
the general treatment and condition of
sailors in all seaport towns is so bad
that they would be hopeless fools if they
did not seize every opportunity of aban-
doning that avocation. Sailors are. in
fact, slaves. They are slaves moreover
whose health and safety nobody cares
anything about. At sea they are treated
worse than dogs. On shore thew are
the victims of systematic, merciless and
constant robbery. They are swindled
IN the most barefaced manner by the
boarding house keepers, set of vile
sharks who ought long since TO have
been put under police regulation. 1t
may be said that the cases are rare in
which the sailor gets any profit out of
his longest voyage. He is very lucky if
he makes enough to buy himself de-
cent outfit for his next voyage. For the
most part all he gets is a few debauches
on drugged liquor. His wages are liter
ally stolen from him, and when he has
been thoroughly stripped he is shipped
again, and his new advance is pocketed
by the villains who have him in charge.
All these facts are notorious. There is
hardly any pretense of disguise about
the system of robbery described. Yet
the sailor finds no protection or relief
anywhere. If at any time spasmodic
effort Is made to procure legislation in
his interest the villains who live off him
send an agent to the lobby and the rem.
edlal measure is quietly straneled.
There Is ample room here tor some zeal
Gus philanthropist of the Plimsoll kind
to make a record San Francisco has
acquired a particularly evil reputation
III this connection and not without
cause, for she harbors among the class
who exist by plundering the seamen
some of the worst wretches that ever
cheated the penitentiary and the gal
lows. There is, however, no politics in
tins question, and so it does not interest
politicians. 1t is true that the State is
dlsgraced that commerce is injured ::
that civilization is made farce of: that
wrongs innumerable are committed in
connection with the subject but. then.
the sailors are Il nomadic people, who
not-be depended upon to help poll
ticians, and moreover they cannot bring
any "sack" to the front to plead their
cause. So the old evil work goes on.
and in stringent times a little kidnap,
ping is done and a sensational article or
two Is written about the matter and then
1t Is dropped. Nor is it all clear that a
time VIII come when Legislators will take
more interest in this onestion

railway, the Chicago, Rock Island and
Pacific, has inst issued very complete
map of the United States, corrected to
date and giving all the new places upon
the roads In Colorado, Arizona and New
Mexico, and also upon the Southern
Pacific line to San Francisco. It has
also published new and tasty
paper called The Western Trait, which
gives information of great value TO all
interested i'll the growth of our Western
Territories. Mr.. L. st. John, the wide

Agent at Chicago, will mail these pub
locations, post free, to all who drop him

The man or woman going west of Chi

it is the model railway. We cannot do
better, in closing, than to say send him
