Texas is the healthiest country in the
world We recently came across San
Antonio paper, in which it was stated, in as
many words, that the remains Of man,
killed forty years ago, were discovered plow-
ing in Central Garden. In no other state,
and in no other city in the state, is the air
so salubrious that the remains Of man,
killed forty years before, can be seen plow-
ing. The attention of inyalids is called to
this astonishing evidence of the salubrious
quality Of the San Antonio atmosphere

A Mothers Influence.

It is hard for a young mother
who has not yet overcome the way
ward tendencies of her own youth
f,I nature, to realize the influence
che exerts over her little one. She
is constantly surrounded by criti-
cal imitators, who copy her morals
and manners. AS the mother is,
so are the sons and daughters. If
q family of children are blessed
with an intelligent mother, who is
dainty and refined in her manners,
and does not consider it necessary
to be one woman in the drawing
room and an entirely different per-
son in her everyday life, but who
is the true mother, and always a
tender. charming woman, you will
invariably see her habits of speech
and perfect manners repeated in
her children. Great, rough men
and noisy, busy boys will always
tone their voices and step quietly,
and try to be more mannerly when
she stops to give them a kind word
or nleasant smile--for a true moth
err will never fail to say or do all the
kind, pleasant things she can, that
will in any way help to lift up and
cheer those whose lives are shaded
with care and toll. The mother of
to-day rules the world of tomorrow.

Character.

There is structure which every
body is building, young and old,
each one for himself. 1t is called
character, and in it every act is a
stone. If day by day we are care
full to build our lives with pure,
noble, and upright deeds, at the
end they will stand a fair temple,
honored by God and man. But as
one leak will sink ship, and one
flaw break a chain, so one mean,
dishonorable, untruthful act or
word will forever leave its impress,
and work its influence on our char
acter. Then let the several deeds
unite to form a day, and one by
one the days grow into noble years,
and the years, as they slowly pass
will raise at last beautiful edifice,
enduring forever to our praise

BY His Language.

Nothing SO strongly indicates the
man Of pure and wholesome
thought as habitual purity of
speech. By his conversation,
among his own kind, you may al
ways pretty accurately form an
opinion as to the moral worth of a
man. 1t is there where no re-
straint is supposed to be placed up
on his words, that you discover his
true nature. If he is given to
looseness of discourse, or if his mind
wanders to the discussion of sub
jects prescribed in mixed company
OF respectable society, YOU may just
~ mark him as one with whom as
ISOLATION is undesirable.-Zion' s
Watchman.

Homes Needed.

Amid all the efforts made for the
elevation of the masses, very little
or nothing has been done toward

with plenty of good water. Nearly
all the murders and suicides com
mltted in New York City the past
year have had for their theatre
miserable tenement rooms, whose
heat, filth and discomfort might al
most tempt well-disposed man to
drink and forget his misery" and
being drunk to be reckless both of
his own and every ones life, where
life had SO little to make it desira-
bic. Poisoning with filth ought to
be as unlawful as poisoning with
prussic acid, and the same laws
that condemn bad fish and meat
and unwholesome fruit, should also
condemn all dwelling houses unfit
for pure and healthy existence.

to consider themselves mercifully

free for their deserts. Preachers

Family Prayer at a Tavern.

Rowland Hill was once driven by
storm into a village and compeli-
ed to spend the night. When it
grew late the landlord sent re-
quest by the waiter that the guest
would go to bed.
Mr.. Hill replied, IL have been
waiting long time expecting to
be called to family prayer"
Family prayer! 1 don't know
what you mean, sir, we never had
such a thing here"
"Indeed then tell your master
[ can not go to bed until we have
had family prayer"
The waiter informed his master,
who in CONSERVATION bounced into
the room occupied by the faithful
minister, and SAID, "Sir l wish you

$50 am I" was the reply: "but l
have been expecting to be sum
moned to family prayer"
"All very good, sir, but it can
not be done at an inn"
"Indeedl then pray get me my
horse. I can not sleep in a house
where there is no family prayer"
The host preferred to dismiss his
prejudice rather than his guest,
and said, 81 have no objections to
prayer but | don't know how"
"Well then summon your peo-
pie and let US see what can be
done"
The landlord obeyed and in a
few minutes the astonished domes-
tics were upon their knees and the
landlord was called upon to pray"
Sir | never prayed in my life,
[ don't know how"
"Ask God to teach you," was the
reply.
The landlord said, folding his
hands, God teach us how to pray"
That's prayer my friend, go on,
cried Mr.. Hill joyfully.
81 am snre | don't know what to
say now, sir"
Eyes you do; God has taught
you how to pray, now thank him
for it."
Thank you God Almighty, for
letting us pray to YOU"
Amen! Amenv exclaimed Mr..
Hill, and then prayed himself,
Two years afterwards, Mr.. Hill,

Make Home Cheerful.

Make home cheerful, good people
in middle life-bright, winsome
and beautiful to your young sons
and daughters. One way in which
you can do this is by furnishing
them with liberal supply of good
reading. The meager provision
made for the mind, in houses where
the provision for the body is gener-
Gus, is something which we can
never understand. How can young
or old thrive on diet composed of
the country paper once week
and the Sabbath-school library
books brought home by Tom and
Jenny? The fact is they starve,
and leanness comes into their soul.

serious, and from serious to horror
as the reading went on.

Party Candidates.
[selina Ala Morning Times, Nov. II

[Selina (Ala,) Morning Times, Nov. H.
Ever since 1910 Monmouth county,
N. j., has elected a democratic state
senator until this year, when a re
publican was elected by about 900
majority. Cause.-The democratic
nomination of man who had served
a term in the penitentiary for politi-
cal crookedness. The party deserved
defeat for trying to impose upon the
people such man.
Party leaders, conventions and
caucuses must learn that the people
will not longer submit to the party
lash to the extent of voting for in
competent or unworthy candidates
for public office. However I'M
pleasant it may be for the two great
parties, there is a growing desire
among the people to vote for the
best men regardless OF party. This
spirit was forcibly instanced in the
election last week of Seth Low, re-
publican, mayor OF the democratic
city of Brooklyn. and in the election
Of Maxwell, democrat, as state
treasurer of New York. The
stronger and more extended this
desire to elect the best men TO Office,
the less corruption we will have.
The laws will be administered better,
and there will be less stealing, and
it will soon teach both parties in
the country to nominate none but
good men for office.
