Want Help from tho CITY.

The Roanoke Light Infantry, which
has made such a creditable show at the
encampments and different places of
meeting over tho State, finding their
present armory too small, have cir
culated petition asking the city coun-
Gil to donate $50 per month to assist
them in paying the rent for larger and
more commodious hall in the old Bridge
water Carriage Works building. This
company has been called out four times
within the past year to protect prison
ers, and tho services rendered were
creditable to the city as we'll as them
selves. Heretofore they have depended
wholly on themselves for support, and
they cannot keep it up and retain their
present standing with the infantry COM
panies OF Virginia without the support
of the city or State.

A mother does spend herself too free
ly for her children when she gives up
her own rights to them, effaces herself
so that they do not recognize her supe-
rior claims, makes II difficult for them
to 'honor" her, as the Fifth Command
ment demands that they shall do, writes
Elisabeth Robinson Scovil in her help
ful department in the September Ladies'
Home journal. 1t is u wise selfshness
that makes the mother insist upon
keeping her proper place in the fami-
ly as the crown and center of home,
tenderly loving her children, serving
them in all Legitimate ways, but seeing
that they take their fair share of the
burdens of life, instead of weakly bear
ing them herself.

eration of Mankind.
only desire to establish the PROPOSE
tions that, in order to lead moral life,
IL is necessary to observe certain Sc
quence in good actions; that IL man Is
serious in his aspiration to lead n good
life the practical manifestations of that
desire will necessarily unfold themselves
in n certain order, and that in this order
the abstemiousness (self mastery is the
first virtue which he will have to cult
vate. In the pursuit of the virtue of alb
stemiousness he must again observe n
certain definite order, and the first step
therein will be abstemiousness in food
fasting.
In the practice of fasting the first
thing from which he must abstain, If he
really and truly aims at leading good
moral life, Is animal food, and this for
the intelligible reason that, not to speal;
Of the passions IL engenders and fosters
the consumption Of animal food Is plainly
immoral, because 1t demands an act
which does violence to our moral senti-
ments-viz.. murder-and is encouraged
and kept up only by mems greed of gold
and their appetite for savory food. The
reason why the first step in fasting and
in right living Is abstinence from animal
food has been admirably formulated.
not by one man only, but by all ma
kind in the persons Of its most accredited
representatives during the course of hu-
man history.
But why, one may ask If the illegality
Il. o., ,immorality-of consuming animal
food has been recognized by mankind
for such long period, have people never
theless persisted down to the present in
ignoring this law? This question natr-
rally suggests itself to those who al
prone to be guided less by the light Cf
their own reason than by public opinion.
The answer to the question, however, is
that all moral progress land moral pros
ress is the essence of all progress what
ever is work of time, is accomplished
slowly, but that the sign of genuih
progress, as distinguished from casual
advance, is its uninterrupted continuous
ness and its ever increasing rapidity.
The vegetarian movement ought to fill
with gladness the souls of those who
have at heart the realization of Gods
kingdom upon earth, not because vege-
tarianism itself is such an importai
step toward the realization of this king
dom (all real steps are equally important
or unimportant), but because it serves
as n criterion by which we know that
the pursuit Of moral perfection on the
part of man is genuine and sincere, in
asmuch as it has taken that form whit :
it must necessarily assume, and has truly
begun at the very beginning.
1t is impossible not to rejoice at this,
just as it would be impossible for people
not to feel glad who, after having vainly
endeavored to reach the top of the house
by attempting to climb up the walls
from various sides, at last meet at the
bottom step of the staircase, and crowd
ing together there feel that there is no
way Of reaching the top except by as
cending that staircase and beginnin.

It has been truly said that men Of
tongue are not always men Of thought.
The greatest takers are not generally
the most profound thinkers. Men Of CAB
are not always men of brains. And yet,
with the great majority of people, sound
is preferred TO sense; and the man who
talks the loudest, and especially II he
talks about something which neither
he nor those who hear him understand,
is considered the greatest man. But
when it comes TO acts, and words to be
translated into deeds, and work instead
of talk is required, then men of
thoughts, men of brains, men of practi-
cal common sense come to the front
and there worth is recognized. If
many persons would think more and
talk less, and talk about what they
understand, it would be better for
themselves and for others.
