HOME INFLUENCES,
They Reach Out Into the Lives of Oncom
ing Generations.

They Reach Out Into the Lives Of Oncom.
ing Generations.
Nothing but sin can ruin a home.
No misfortune, if it has not sin for an
ally, is powerful enough to wreck it.
There may be emptiness in the larder,
the house may be in ashes, sickness
may lay its hand on one and another Of
its members, even death may assail it,
but the true home lives in glorious tri-
umph over all. A part of the family
may be on the other side of the mystic
veil, children may be scattered over
the globe, but home remains blessed
fact. Rich, indeed, are they whose
treasury is filed with the wealth of
three homes, those of their childhood,
their manhood and their old age; the
first with their parents, the last with
their children.
Unconsciously, then, parents are in
auencing their children: toward
right or wrong marriage. Not for an
instant must it be felt by them that
children are necessary evil" that
household cares are only a burden, that
life would have been better and far
happier for them if they had never
married. This root of selfshness will
send its poison not only through the
home of to-day, but into the homes Of
the next generations. Too often the
vow taken to cleave to one another
for better or for worse is forgotten
as the months and years develop faults
which did not appear in the days OF
courtship, and morbid criticism and
unwillingness to recognize self-failures
breed ill-temper which turns love into
hate. It is probable that in the major
ity of households one may be sure that
for every fault discovered or imagined
in another, there is one to mate it in
the self-satisfed critic. An early rec
ignition of this truth, and consequent
humility and Tolerance, would pre-
serve happiness and give abundant har-
vest of blessing. But leaving general
and unconscious influences, there are
direct and definite questions which oc-
cur to wise, earnest and devoted par
ents in respect to the marriage of their
children. Perhaps the dsughter seems
more easily guided, and the duties of
parent toward a son more difficult to
understand and to perform, but the
obligation to faithful care is as mex
orable in dealing with one child as
with another.-Mrs. Lyman Abbott, in
Ladies' Home Journal.

But 1t Was . Wooden Leg and Didn't
Hurt Him Seriously.
Police officers detailed in charpa ~
postal wagons see more of the woes and
Ills Of suffering humanity than most
people. Late one night a short time
ago Chicago saloonkeeper called for
the ambulance from the West Chicago
avenue station, saying there was man
lying on the sidewalk near Carpenter
and Front streets badly injured and
unconscious. The unfortunate was
bundled into the ambulance and
landed in the examining room at the
county hospital. On the way to the
hospital the sufferer became partially
conscious and indicated that his right
leg was the cause of great discomfort.
He could not speak English, but the
officers understood that his right leg
had been injured. In the examining
room he made an extremely wry face.
when the physician approached, and it
was then discovered he had been drink
ing heavily. The physician felt the,
mans right leg between the knee and
ankle without drawing up the panta-
looms or exposing the skin, and found
the bone broken badly four or Eve
inches above the ankle, and the pa
tient was then removed to the operating
room. Here more complete examin-
alton was made, and it was learned
the mans right leg was broken in the
most terrible manner. When the
patient saw the condition Of his leg he
actually shed tears II was wooden
leg, and he was drunk and bemoaning

chase of another leo.
