A GENERATION or so since it was the
practice of parents to bring children
up in the way they should go, confid-
ing in the scriptural assurance that
when their offspring were old the
same way would be followed. There
might have been sometimes a trihe
too much severity, and the reins were
in most cases drawn rather more tense
ly than was necessary, but the parents
thought they were doing their duty
and tried their very best to do it.
When they sent their boys out into
the world with serious iniunctions and
many Secret prayers, it was in the
faith that they would do honor to the
training given, to their families and
their country.
And they usually did. Now and
again there was a black sheep among
them, but they were not a generation
OF useless dudes or specializing gam
blers. These were the fathers OF the
present race OF young men. and they
will answer for the fact that scandal.
social or business was thing almost
unknown in the days OF their youth and

COLUMBUS fought one. OF the brav-
est of fights for the validity and truth
of the Scriptures. When, after many
years of indomitable struggle with
poverty, incredulity and scorn, he at
last was permitted to present his
case to the great council of Ferdinand
and Isabella, he had to champion the
Bible as warranting his conviction Of
the existence Of an antipodal world
1t was the Bible, nevertheless, that
was interposed between him and the
realization of his project. One of the
doctors declared his idea heretical be-
cause the Bible had reported God as
saying that he would place heaven
over the earth as as vault; he would
spread it like a tent and incline it
over the earth. The mind OF Column
bus beheld divine truth in the declar-
alton. God had extended the heav-
ems over the earth as vault, but the
extension covered a globe, not half
globe. as the less imaginative and less
instructed doctor of the court held.

of the afflicted, writes the New York
Sun. But the oft-repeated prescrip-

make no impression upon her until
the time OF her own need is at hand.
The simplest and perhaps the surest
remedy for wrinkles is to battle the

restores the elasticity OF the skin.
Eat nourishing food containing oily
substances, stop worrying and fret

never go to sleep without removing all
the powder from the face and giving il
its bath. Gentle but brisk rubbing
with the finger tips, marking all the
lines and rubbing in the opposite di-
rection, is q help, but the bath is best.
However, the best way to get rid Of
wrinkles is to avoid causing them in
