this conviction has not been followed by
the wisest conclusion concerning the best
means to be employed. While the press
of the State, and notably of the interior, is
discussing the subject vigorously, we re-
greet TO note that the major portion of the
expression is in favor OF a juvenile reforma-
tory. This is error. To confirm a youth
in crime, put upon him any sort of aprison
or reformatory uniform attach to him the
stigma of a reformatory. This has been
wildly illustrated by the sad outcome Of
the Industrial School at San Francisco.
What is needed is home for abandoned
and viciously-inclined children, and those
left to drift into criminal ways, not a re-
formatory. Gathered at the home"
they should be as speedily as possible
housed in homes Of worthy citizens, and
thus completely disconnected, so far as the
worlds knowledge of them may 60, from
any State reformatory institution. This
is the method of the Boys and Girls Aid
Society of San Francisco; it is the plan
upon which Massachusetts, proceeds in her
reformatory and preventive work. Wherever
tried it works well and produces the best
results Not over per cent. Of children

youths it arrests. II watches over then
carefully, shows in them such kindly inter

position it is developed and expanded into

elaborated upon the home system to sucf
extent, that it is not deemed necessary t.
do more now than to recall the public al
tention TO the fact that the reformatory
idea is well nigh an exploded one, and il
no longer entertained by those whom study
and experience has most enlightened upor
the subject. To establish a mere reform
school will be but to repeat the errors o
the San Francisco Industrial School.

had never been any truth in the report from
the first. Not that he cared any longer fo1
Susie, at least, so he said. He was quite
open in the expression of his feelings to his
mother, when, one day, the old lady got
him to talk on the subject.
"Of course, mother, l aCas very fond OF
her once. There wasn't any positive agree
ment between US, for felt ought not to
bind her while was too poor to marry, but
there was certainly an understanding-she
knew we'll enough that l cared for her, and
I knew-or thought-that she cared for me.
I always looked forward to marrying her,
some day, when my affairs had improved.
And if she had waited for me, why, you see,
by this time should have felt justified in
getting the matter settled. But, of course,
it's all over now, though she is widow"
"You are quite sure it is all over, Tom %
"Why, mother, what question"
"Well, dear, l don't know. [ thought
you might have kindly feeling for her
still, but, on the whole, it is best that you
shouldn't, as her circumstances are SO
changed"
"Certainly it is best. In the first place,
if were to 60 after her now, she might
think-no she wouldn't, but other people
might think, that it was her money want
ed, don't you see 90
"And in the second place, Tom, she has
proved yourself unworthy of your affec-
tion."
"Well, don't know that mother. If she
liked Barton better than she did me it was
nothing against her."
"T. But do you suppose she did,"
II did not think you would turn against
her," said Tom, most unreasonably.
81 am not turning against her, but don't
think that if Amos Barton had been poor
man she wonld have married him."
"Then you think her purely mercenary
81 only judge from facts"
Tom looked annoyed, and answered with
some temper that facts were sometimes de-
ceiving things-from which remark, and
his irritation of manner, Mrs. Morton
shrewdly guessed that he had not overcome
his former weakness so entirely as he had
supposed. The discovery did not please
her, for with mothers Jealous partiality
she wanted him to care for no one who was
not entirely worthy and pure, and able to
appreciate his merits as they deserved and
in this appreciation she considered that
Susie had proved herself sadly deficient in
time past. And to have her Tom consider
ed a fortune hunter-oh, that would be an
indignity she never could bear! So, al
though, she was not partial to Mary Lind
saw. or toany other girl of her acquaintance,
and did not think one of them good enough
to be Toms wife, yet she thought she could
reconcile herself to seeing either Mary
or some other in this position, rather than
to have him to take up with his old love,
who had treated him so shamefully, and
whom she could not forgive.

On every hand we hear of the knights Of
Labor and their work. They have become
one of the greatest powers in this country.
The order was formed in 1869, at Philadel-
phia, and soon spread until now almost
every hamlet has its local assembly. In
1873 a convention was called and the Gener-
al Assembly of North America established,
at which Uriah S. Stevens, the founder OF
the order was chosen Grand Master Work.
man. None Of the present officers know
how many members the order has, for it
is increasing at the rate Of 10000 year, so
that any correct calculation is out Of the
question. Any person, who stands well IN
his trade, above the age OF Is, whether
male or female, without distinction ofcreed
or color, whether tradesman, manufacturer,
employer or employee, may become men,
ber; not lawyers, bankers, brokers, profess
sional gamblers or any person who derives
a profit from the sale of intoxicating liquors..
The Executive Board of the order is COM
posed of the following gentlemen: Il. V.
Powderly, Grand Master Workman, Scran-
ton, Pa, Frederick Turner, Secretary and
Treasurer, Philadelphia, Pa, John W..
Hayes, New Brunswick, y. j., w. IL.
Bailey, Shawnee, Ohio, II. b. Barry, Sagi-
nav, Michigan.
The executive board has the power to or
der or terminate strikes, raise, order or eX-
tend boycotts, confers with capitalists and
employers, in fact controls the entire organ
ization, except when the General Assembly
is in session. The order was founded to pre-
vent the encroachment of capital on labor,
and how successfully this has been accom-
plished the record of strikes and boycOtts,
which have been successful proves. The
local assemblies govern themselves. They
have the power to boycott whom ever they
please in their own district. Boycottng is
the most effective weapon of the order.
The head of the order is Terrence Y.
Powderly. He was born in Carbondale,
Pa, January 9th, 1919. He learned the
machinist's trade and put in his spare time
in educating himself in civil engineering.
At the age of 10 he joined the Machinists'
and Blaclismiths' Union, of Scranton, and
became presiding officer. Ten years ago
he Joined the Knights of Labor, and be-
came secretary of District Assembly No. 1G.
He was active in bringing together the scat
tered threads of the order to form the first
General Assembly in 1878, and to him is
greatly due the phenomenal success of the
order. In his capacity, as the head of this
immense organization, he has the largest
correspondence and answers more letters
thanany otherman in the United States. In
the great labor movement of 1877, he was
made mayor of Scranton, and was
elected to the same office by the Democrats,
and again on the peoples ticket. lie has
been reelected six times to his position as
the head of the Knights of Labor. He is
strict teetotaler, and does not use tobac,
co in any form. His ancestors were Irish
and from them came his fountain of Irish
wit, for which he is celebrated.

Chistmas eve-and Ernest Dent waited
in Aunt James parlor. AS the anticipated
hour drew near it must be confessed he
harbored little anxiety as to the first i'm
preston his betrothed would make. His
mother would love her in the end, but she
was naughty in her manner; not altogether
pleased with his engagement, gay, rolick-
ing sister Kate would take her right into
her affectiOnate heart.
So busily thinking he did not hear Alice
till, with her hands in his, she stood direct
ly in front of him, her eager eyes seeking
his verdict. "Ernest, for your sake l
wish my appearance were more in accord
ance with your taste. tried very hard to
have it different. Don't ask any questions,
l cannot tell you tonight why" then as
a faint shadow fitted across his brow,
"You are not ashamed of me?-because, if
you are, l."
"Nay, my darling, you know me better
than to misjudge me; l was only thinking
how for once it would delight me to see you
in some delicate color. There, forgive me;
it was passing thought, and am thought
less; you are so unseltsh, my own, true
girl"
Yes, she did forgive him, but the look
had been given, the word spoken, and sOme-
how it hurt her as never before, while the
sting remained in her heart till in front OF
st. Marks Church she stopped and broke
the silence neither could seem to shake otf:
"Oh, Ernest, listen-itis joey"
"Oh, your Joe; do you know Weimer

if he lives, he will make fortune. He is
exceedingly interested in the boy; was 60
ing to fit him for the concert, only some one
got ahead of him. | must get the child
something tomorrow, just because he be-
longs to you"
After hearing that voice Alice was strong
and the excitement, together with the fros-
ty air, had given her glowing color by the
time they reached Mrs. Sherwood's.
"Dear Miss Alice" said Minnie Sher-

gsg" Lemonade is said to be one of the best
and safest drinks for any person, whether
in health or not, being suitable for all
stomachic disorders and excellent in sick
ness. Lemon juice is the best anti-scorbu-
tic remedy known. If the gums are daily
rubbed with lemon juice they will be kept
in health BY the daily use of lemon in
stead of soap, chilblains will be prevented,
and the hands kept white, soft and supple.
1t is also said that neuralgia may be cured
by rubbing the part affected with a cut
lemon. 1t is valuable in curing warts and
removing dandruff on the head by rubbing
the roots of the hair with it.

AsTOR AND GIRARD.-1t has often been
said that John Jacob Astor was, sixty years
ago, the only citizen of America worth ST.
100000. He may have been the only New
Yorker then possessed of such fortune
but the wealth of Stephen Girard, of Phila-
delphia would at that time have reached
at least sc, 100000. He died in 1881, leaving
an estate valued at S9,0O0,000, and Astor in
1913, leaving an estate of $50, 1000, 600, much
of it having been accumulated within fif-
teen or twenty years.
