BEAUTIFUL PAINTING.
Perraulrs Awakening of Love-"

ECl oult AWdhCIiIly VI LONc.
The beautiful oil painting, "The
Awakening of Love-" by Perrault,
which was exhibited at the Paris Sa-
lon, and was afterwards purchased by
the Doliber- Goodale Co, for their ex-
hibit of Mellin's Food at the Worlds
Fair, has been returned from Chicago,
and will be exhibited TO the public,
free, at The Youths Companion Office,
Columbus Avenue, Boston, for a few
days before it's departure for the Cali
fornia Winter Exposition.
The many friends of Mellin's Food
who saw the picture at the Worlds
Fair, as well as those who were pre-
vented from visiting Chicago, will,
we feel sure, welcome the opportuni-
ty to examine the beautiful gem of
modern art at their leisure. The ex-
hibition of this exquisite work of art
in The Youths Companion Office re-
calls the magnificent colored repro
duction of it which appeared i'm the
Worlds Fair Number of The Youths
Companion last May, and also the sig
niiicant words which prominent
writer uttered on that occasion in
reference to it: GAS the Greek ma
irons gazed earnestly on the statues
of their ideal gods, with the hope that
their children might embody such
beauties, SO should modern mothers
keep before them this ideal of per-
feet child"

MORNING.
Above my head the birds are singing,
The air is sweet with breath of flowers,
Beneath my feet the grass is springing,
The Sun11g hit falls IN gO1den showers
Der messy stones the brook is flowing,
Its silvery murmur greets my ear,
The wind against my cheek is blowing,
There's Joy and gladn everywhere.
Far up above white clouds sailing
Like fairy ships on seas of blue,
Earth's children glorious morn are ha1llng,
The earth is fair, and fresh, and new.

THE MONROE DOCTRINE.
A Declare tion Opposing Foreign Inter
ference with CisAtlantio AnAirs.

A Declare tion Opposing Foreign Inter
ference with Cisatlansio AfAirs.
Briefly apd broadly stated, the Mon
roe doctrine is our national policy Of
opposing the interference of European
powers with the political affairs of es-
tabiished popular governments in the
American hemisphere. It's origin, as
related by the New York Times, was As
follows: In 1922, At congress- of Eu-
-opean powers 1T Verona, Italy, there
was discussed project for aiding Spain
to recover her sway over her revolted
American colonies. This aroused
strong Indignation in the United States
and the sentiment: America for the
Americans" became q popular cry. In
the following year-ises-PresSdent
Monroe, after careful consultation with
his secretary Of state, John Quincy
Adams, and with Thomas Jefferson, in
corporatea in his annual message the
following declarations: That we
should consider any attempt on their
part to extend their system 20 any por-
ton of this hemisphere as dangerous 70
our peace and safety" and that we
could not view any interpretation for the
purpose of expressing Cindependent
American govornments) or controlling
in any manner their destiny by any Eu-
ropean power In any other light than
as a manifestation Of an unfriendfy dis
position toward the United States"
These declarations at once became
known as the Monroe doctrine. They
received popular approval at the time
and have always been advocated since
then. During the late civil war Louis
Napoleon. in contempt of the. doctrine,
sought TO establish Archduke Maxunil-
ian as tituiar emperor Of Mexico. Owing
TO the occupation of the national forces
at home the effort then met with only
q diplomats c protest, but in ordinary
tines such . measure would rouse the
country TO active opposition. Ia inter~
national affairs Of to-dAy the doctrine
has its application Ia the way Of de-
terrne European tnt-gues or armed
interference with independent AneTi-
can governments
