OUR BOYS.
Are they where they should be in order
to make good men?

Are they where they should be in order
to make good men?
Where are our boys and what are
they doing9 is question that comes
to the minds Of many parents and all
who are interested in the rising gen
GRAFTON. Are the boys where they
should be in order to make moral and
useful men? If not, who is to blame ?
Are we, as parents, not interested
enough in the future welfare of our
boys to put forth our best efforts in
directing and training these young
minds? With our free and public
schools and other institutions of learn
ing, yet how many parents there are
neglecting the advantages offered them.
The young minds are blank capaci-
ties, ready to receive instructions
whether good or bad. Parents are
their first teachers; therefore, it de-
wolves upon us to fill these receptive
faculties with useful knowledge that
will make their primary character.
Just think how careful we should be
in instructing and training them, for
so much of their future life depends
upon their early culture. Now, as a
general thing, parents can see the ne
cessity of an education, but yet so
many are neglectful in keeping their
children in regular attendance at
school. Parents are not aware of the
great drawback this irregularity of at
tendance is to the pupils as we'll as to
the instructor. The pupil gradually
loses his interest in school and prefers
the streets and alleys for his company.
which, in short time, makes him
truant and a vagabond
If you or your child do not like the
instructor for some reason, do not per-
nit that child to loiter and spend his
time idly, but keep him in school or
make him improve his time in his
books at home, if you are capable of
instructing him. one of the greatest
wrongs of today is that many parents
encourage their children in disobe-
dience at school, simply by listening
to their tell-tales and petty troubles;
whereas, if they would pay no atten-
ton to all these little trivial things it
would be better for the child as we'll
as the community at large. The fast

Is Suicide COwardly?

There are many and various causes
which lead people to commit self de-
structiOn, among which may be named
i'll health, financial embarrassment, sud
den misfortune, fear and vivid imagi
nation, and score or more Of other nc
less important factors which tend tC
make it extremely difficult to arrive at
proper or satisfactory decision OF
the above question either for or against
Constant worrying, lamenting and
brooding over these troubles naturally
impress them upon the mind to such an
extent that it possesses and completely
mOnOpOliZeS the mind with this train
of thought, debarring it of thoughts of
a more cheerful and beneficial nature.
This state of affairs, if prolonged. is
almost certain to terminate in the de-
thrOnenlent of reason and places the
unfortunate individual in misery, be-
yOnd sane comprehension, which in a
great majority of cases, terminates in
suicide or an attempt thereof.
We are aware that it is directly con-
trary to the laws of nature to permit
ourselves to become SO thoroughly i'm
pressed or possessed of one idea that it
will serve to exclude others from our
mind. Yet at times the physical force
of resistance seems to be inadequate,
as it sometimes becomes overwhelmed
and unable to cope with it. thus this
soul-destroying illusion retains COM
plete control.
In the majority of cases of self-de-
struction, the act is unprecedented, it
takes possession of the mind suddenly
and without warning. If the attempt
proves unsuccessful, the victim is un
able to explain even the cause of the
rash act or why it was committed.
This we term temporary alteration of
the mind, caused by permitting one
thought, idea or purpose to wholly alb
sOrb the action thereof. Under the
above circumstances, suicide or it's at
tempt could not properly nor justly be
called an act Of cowardice. An Incl
dent, however. which recently took
place in this state would serve to re-
verse the above decision. A young
man was caught in the act of robbing a
store but escaped his captors and a
short time afterward was seen fastening
across vacant field near by; several Of
the inhabitants started in pursuit and
were gaining rapidly on the fugitive,
who seeing that capture was inevitable
deliberately halted. placed a revolver to
his head and blew his brains out.
This act was an exhibition of gross
cOWardice.
In view of the above it would seem

CalumniatOrS.

Pay no attention to slanderers and
gossip-mongers. Keep straight on your
course, and let their back biting die the
death of neglect. What is the use of
lying awake at nights broOding over
the remark of some false friend that
runs through your brain like lightning !?
What is the use of getting into a worry
and fret over gossip that has been set
afioat to your disadvantage by some
meddlesome busybOdy who has more
time than character? These things
cannot possibly injure you, unless, in
deed, you take notice of them. and. in
combating them, give them standing
and character. If what is said about
you is true set yourself right: if it is
false let it go for what it will fetch If
bee stings you would you go to the
hive to destroy it? Would not thou
sand come upon you? It is wisdom to
say little concerning the injuries you
received. We are generally losers in
the end if we stop to refute all the back
biting and gossiping we may hear by
the way. They are annoying, it is true,
but not dangerous, SO long as we do
not stop to expostulate and scold.
Our characters are formed and sustain
ed by ourselves, by our own actions and
purposes, and not others. Let us al
ways bear in mind that 'calumniators
may usually be trusted to time and the
slow but steady justice of public opin-
ion. ."-NO Western Witness.

A National Sin.

''Has the United States national
sin ?" asks some one. 1t has. That sin
is the legaliZed sale of modern indul-
gences-licenses- commit crime. In
exchange for dollars men are author
lied to deal out poison to their fellows
a poison which undermines health, de-
thrones reason, clothes multitudes with
rags, turns happy homes into earthly
hells, crowds prisons, asylums, and
poorhouses, and literally kills thousands
every year. The terrible thing about it
is that tens Of thousands of Christian
men are directly implicated in these
crimes. Every man who votes for
candidate who favors license becomes
a partner in the diabolical traffic. If
all the good men in this country who
hate the saloon would unite to vote it
down, the Infamous institution would
not last month. 1t lives because

Pride.

Inordinate pride is dangerous form
of weakness to the man, woman or

'Pride goeth before destruction" and
"The Lord knoweth the proud afar

instances confirmative of the danger of

their grandeur are trodden under foot

An education that is not combined
with good common sense instruction

A Good Name.

/ A young man does not always find it
easy to get on in the world without
education or family influence or per-
sonal friends or property or health; but
he will find, in the long run, that it is
far easier for him to make his way
among men without any or all of these
advantages than to make substantial
progress in the world without the rep
utation of a good character, even
though he has all these other possess
everywhere, IN spite of it's frequent
slightings. Men who are themselves
lacking good character, appreciate
and value it in Others A band of rob-
bers would want an honest treasurer.
The young man whose word cannot be
believed, whose honesty is not above
suspicion, and whose personal life is
not what it ought to be, is not the
young man that the business world has
opened places for. He may have
health and wealth and family position,
and host of friend. but if he is with
out character he is at a disadvantage
in every position in life When a
young man who has lost good name
makes an honest effort to recover it he
finds that his way upward is hard
one great deal harder, in spite of
ali other helps, than it would have been
had he made right start without
these helps. Friends are comparatively
powerless in their efforts to win conf
dence for one who has proved himself
unworthy of it on former occasions.
Then it is that the young man is likely
to realize, as never before, that "a good
name is rather to be chosen than great
rlches,' even as a worldly investment,
because it is so hard to get on without
a good name, or to regain it when once
surrendered. Every young man who
has that possession ought to count it
above price, and to have care lest he
lose it,-EX.

vital necessity for the welfare of the

This enthrones in us the highest good

When the seers of old, said: "Out of
the heart are the issues of life;" ''the
pure in heart shall see God;" and "God
is love-" they gave utterance to the
highest scientific truths, which, if not
lived, prevent man from evolving that
power of Divine Harmony that would
bless and exalt him.
The corrupt spirit is that of hatred,
and the incorruptible spirit is love;
hence, there can be no consciousness
of Immortality until one is embodied
love and that cannot be unless his love
embraces all humanity, for the least
hatred left in the being still leaves
foothold for corruption to operate and

In way creditable TO long line of parade

spectators that gathered at the

usual organizations, mounted and
on foot, including the various

there were the standard bearers
marching in pairs one carrying the green
banner with the harp, and the other, the
stars and stripes.
The only innovations for this years
parade was in the length of the line of
march, a shorter one having
been proposed by Chief Marshall Thomas
III. Donahue and agreed to by the
paraders. 1t took in the following
streets: From South Water street, Canal,
Exchange place to City Hall where the line
was reviewed by Mayor Olney and the
members of the City Government, Dor

counter march to Fenner street, through
Fenner down Broad and Weybosset, across
Market Square, North Main to the
State House where the line
was again reviewed by Governor
Brown and staff, down Steeple street TO
Exchange place where the line was
dismissed. The objectors TO
this route had said that
IL would deprive a great many OF the
privilege of witnessing the parade, but
their fears were apparently not realized to
Judge from the crowds. Major Bonahue
said il the men did not march to Oiney-
vile square and the North End that the
North End and Olneyville square
would come TO them and they did. The
condition of the streets for marching was
all that could be desired and the weather
simply perfect.
