A BOYS TRAINING.

A boy in Wisconsin only 10 years OF
age named Hans Anderson has been
sentenced to the penitentiary Tor lie
for shooting an old man, nelghbor'
The bows parents lived in clearing
in large woods and his father peat
him and maltreated him until his lie
was a burden and he killed the ola
man in order to get his money to run
awav from brutal father. What
more could be expected from boy
whose own father was habltually cruel
to himY With mind filled with hate
and revenge, without any OF the ten
der influences of paternal love ana
gentle control, the only wonder Is the
boy did not kill his own father, the
question naturally arises, whose iault
was thisY and who ought to have been
punished, the father or the boyY HIS
father perverted all his best feelings
and made him a brute, and, although
both moral and civil law will hold the
boy guilty, the father is really more
to blame than the boy.
The father or mother who Will make
brutes of their children by cruel and
unnatural treatment must expect they
will reinforce the criminal classes. II
is said that punishment Il
some times necessary to subdue an
incorriglble boy, but has anyone ever
known an incorrigible boy to be con
trolled and reformed merely by physi-
cal punishment? On the other hand,
many are controlled and reformed by
kind treatment. A thrashing may in
fuence a good boy, but scarcely a bad
one. Solomon may have spoken from
experience when he said, Spare the
rod and spoil the child" but we doubt
whether Solomon's licentious life in
his old age would have been prevented
if David had thrashed him every
morning before breakfast Physical
punishment administered to human
being or n brute should always be only
in the last resort. The man who can
not manage his son or his horse with
out reckless resort to the lash has no
business with either. In what ratio
was ever boy or horse whipped in
cold blood? The wrong doer may be
very setwilled, but generally the
excuse for the whipping is because
sometimes it is impossible for the
whipper to control his temper. The
world has grown out of so much else
that is iuhuman and disgraceiul and
it is time that men and women were
governed by more humane ideas in
the treatment of their children. The
lash of temper is the remnant of bar
barism, and while nations have abol-
ished it, it still falls with kissing
cruelty on the bare backs of the young
and tender used by the hand that
ought to guard and protect from every
cruelty-Oh shame where is thy sting2
Oh reckless whip where is thy vic
tory

A Grateful Mother,
Boy Only Twelve Years old-Chronic
Catarrh-Great Discharge from
Nose and Throat.

The Pe-ru.na Medicine Co., Column
bus, o. Gentlemen-It is with great
pleasure that / write of the benefit de-
rived from your remedy, Pe-ru-na.
NV little boy, twelve years old, has
always been troubled with catarrh
very bad several years, and L had
great fears of his going into consump-
ton. He had bod cough
that could not check,
and his head was in a ter
rible condition, His head discharged
so much for years that it was charge
on my mind to keep him supplied
with handkerchief. had to use
every rag that l could get at hand.
1t was astonishing how he could dis
charge so much from his nose. L
commenced to give him Peru Ia
month ago, and the discharge from
his head is entirely stopped, and also
his cough. He now does not have to
use a handkerchief at all. The Peru
ma seems to act like magic in his case.
[ feel as if cannot find words to ex-
press my gratitude for the medicine,
but do regret that L never tried it
before. thought there was no cure
for him, and had given up trying to
have him cured; but when l saw the
disease 30 thoroughly explained in
the paper by DR.. Hartman [ thought
would try his medicine. never
will be without Pe-ru-na in the house,
and ] will recommend it to all my
friends,
Very sincerely yours,
MRS. A. E. ACKERMAN,
E. Grand Ave., Chippewa Falls, Wis.
A cold in the head which a single
bottle of Pe-ru-na will cure, soon be-
comes a case of chronic catarrh, which
will require many bottles to entirely
cure. A sore throat, which one bot
tie of Pe-ru.na will cure, soon becomes
chronic pharyngitjs or enlarged ton
sils, which will require many bottles.
A slight cough, which, without ves-
tige of doubt, would soon disappear
with the use of Pe-ru-na, becomes
chronic bronchitis, which require
persistent use of Pe-ru-na for some
time. Every practicing physician
sees many cases of consumption each
year due directly to a neglect of
coughs, colds, etc., which, if Peru-na
had been kept in the house and used
according 10 directions, WOulu nave
been prevented.
If the following advice could reach
every household in the land, and with
such elOquence as to win obedience, it
would convey blessing to each of
value that would be difficult to exag-
crate. The advice is this: Get bottle
of Pe-ru-na, read the instructions on
the bottle until they are thoroughly
understood, do exactly as they direct,
and no catarrh, cold, cough, sore
throat, bronchial pleurisy, pneumonia,
or any other climatic disease will dis"
turb the peace of the household so
long as this is continued
Send to the Pe-ru.na Drug Manu-
featuring Company of Columbus,
Ohio, Tor free pamphlet Oh the treat
menE of Catarrh, La Grippe, Coughs,
Colds, Consumption, and all the eli
matte diseases of winter. -,

The Charge Would Not Stick

assembly has taken action in the case
OF Bretz, the Populist member, VINO
made open charges at the time White,

senator several Years ago, that White

mittee of the assembly who reporter
that they were unfounded, and the a.,

WOULD you call 1t contretemps? 1t

not understand spoken Gaul, although
we know what gall is, but was it
something of the kind, sort of differ

have the same opinion? Well, what
ever it may be, about the same time
the Texas legislature was instructing
Mr.. Mills to vote for the anti option
bill that gentleman was standing in
his place in the senate OF the United
States and making the strongest state
rights argument against the bill that
1T has been our pleasure to read for
come time. He demonstrated most
conclusiyely that the anti.opion bill
carried with 1t gross and palpable in
reference with state affairs that be-
longed solely to state and not federal
Jurisdiction and that it invaded the
common rights of every citizen to
make any contract he chose to make
for the future delivery of wheSt, corn,
oats, cotton or anything else he might
desire to sell. Mills knows what he
is about and any such Instructions as
these given by the Legislature will
weaken his confidence in its ability
to instruct properly.

The wish of the population of the
1900 or 1000 white residents of Hawaii,
generally Americans, that the island
be taken into the American Republic
cannot for mon eat be entertained.
1t would be a violation of the policy of
the United States to acquire foreign
and distant territory with an actual
autonomy of and with other states of
Union. In view, however, of the fact
that it is important that American in
terests should be protected on the is.
land and stable form of government
given it, there isnothing in American
policy to prevent us from extending a
protectorate to any form of govern
ment that may be established on the
island by the revolutionists. The
present queen has been peacefully de-
throned; inundated, it is true, by the
Americans demanding it with arms in
their hands, but it must be considered
that the queen attempted to dispossess
all Americans of their rights acquired
by long citizenship on the island, and
that they were compelled to protect

THE STURDY HONESTY or REPUB
LICAN CHARACTER.


Honesty is a quality controlled very
much by Intentional ideas. Men
are governed very much by their en-
vironments. A man who would be
honest in some circumstances would
be dishonest under the influence OF
other circumstances. A man Is brave
under certain circumstances who
would cringe in apparent cowardice
under other surroundings.
The effects of a war upon a people
are always demoralizing, and it de-
ponds upon the people whether
the moral degradation is last
ing or whe her they recover
from an abnormal condition oil
immortality and dishonesty and re-
assert their natural condition of puri-
ty and honesty Our civil war left
the people of this country with very
loose morals and very indefinite
idea of genuine honesty. This thing
was not confined to those who en-
gagged in trade and who had been
tempted by the circumstance Of wal
to peculate upon their respective gov
ernments, but it entered every de-
partment of society and of govern
ment. 1t unfortunately was day
when powerful corporations were ask
ing for large governmental subsidies
to prosecute important trade develop
ment, to aid internal improvement
and open up foreign traffic by steam
ships. The lobby at Washington
crowded the corridors of the capito
and with brazen etfrontery moved
onto the floors of the house and sen
ate, rafting crisp greenbacks and
offering short road to fortune Il
the representatives controlling the
amount of the subsidies for which theil
corporations were solicitors. The very
fact that these men were not indig
nantly spurned from the floors of con
gress was an evidence that there were
were willing and listening ears anC
that the material composing the mem
bership of congress was malleable anc
ready to be fashioned into the obedi
ent tools of the subsidy beggar. Ii
was a noted fact that when q member
of congress was asked why he did moi
favor such and such subsidy, as the
improvement contemplated would
benefit his constituents, that his ans
wer would be, at has not been made
interesting to me-" That was the cue
by which lobbyists were governed
We do not pretend to say that there
were not many exceptions, members
of congress who could not be corrupted
by any bride, but we do say that these
subsidies were obtained by corrupt
methods to which many men yielded

superiority and all their lives
suffered from it. Nota
BILE illustrations might be
given, but we do not revive the story
of this condition of affairs to smircE
the character of any man but rather tt
congratulate the country that there
was sufficient sturdy honesty in
American character to furnish the
Ieaven OF publication to purify the
lump and that this corruption, natur
ally following a civil war, was abnor

had vigor enough in their character
to reassert and re-establish the nor

The chemical analysis of milk is not
complicated nor difficult, says The
Industrial American. A small dish
is accurately weighed and the weight
noted. Into it is now introduced a
small portion of milk, and both are
again weighed. By subtracting the
weight of the dish from the weight of
both, the weight of the milk is found
and carefully recorded. The dish is
p aced over a steam jet, ana the water
OF the milk evaporates, leaving a resi-.
due. 1t is this residue which passes
under the name of "solids.u A last
weighing of the dish with the milk
residue, less the weight of the dish,
