loved Rome just as much as he ever did,
in fact his love for his country had
grown with his age so much that now
his entire thought was for the welfare
of Rome. The procession was led by
men Of his own ago who were not SO
feeble, their breasts we're adorned with
many medals, and their brows were
marked with many scars--mute wit
nesses Of their courage on msny battle
field. AS they marched by the old man
they were singing and the chorus Of
their song was. I'VE have been strong,
we have been strong" The old man S
countenance fell as he said: eyes, I
know you have been strong, but your
strength is gone, What, o what, will
become of Rome?" Just then the
young men and middle.aged men came
marching along The sight of these
stalwart men was an inspiration, they
were in the prime Of their manhood
and strength, they were singing and
their chorus was: 1--WE are strong. We
are strong" The old mans counten-
ance fell again as he said, Eyes I know
you are strong, but your strength will
soon fail. 'Then, O Then, what will
become of Rome2" Just then the boys
came marching by and they too were
singing, and the chorus of their song
was, "We will be strong, We will he
strong" The old man Strengthened up
on his staff and tears of joy ran down
his face, as he exclaimed. "Now let
me die in peace, I see in those boys
Rome's strength for the next fifty
years." Well may we apply this to
our nation. Our fathers fought we'll
the early battles. but their strength is
almost gone. The moral battles Ct this
nation must be fought by each genera.
ton and the great battle of this gener-
alton is between the saloon and the
home. The saloon must be driven out
or the American home will be destroyed
If the home is destroyed the nation
cannot stand. We, the young and
middle aged men, are responsible for
the victory Or defeat of the home. 1 |
believe we can save the home from
overthrow and thus save the nation to
this generation. And if we train our
children right they "ill carry the white
aag of prohibition Oh to victory in the
lifetime Of the using generation. But
we must strain every nerve, we should
organize Sunday schools into Bands of
Hope, Lnyal Legion. or Boys Brigades.
Our children will be better prepared for
the fight than we, better equipped in
education and discipline.

CONSCIENCE MONEY.

It 1o Alnoot Always Returned - eho
Rlghtfal Owner Sscretly.
The paying Of conscience money II
rare enough In itself, but it IL seldom
that such money II paid in person.
More frequently the payments are
made in such manner that they cam
not be traced to the sender. The
senior member Of . manufacturing
firm In one of Troy's suburbs had sim
gular experience in the matter Of con-
science money one day recently. Thir-
ty years ago he was engaged in man
uxacturing business In this city and
employed large number Of women and
girls at the factory. It is likely that
among this number there were at least
a few who were not strictly honest. but
only one has been troubled by . guilty
conscience sufficient to cause her to
make restitution. This one, now an
elderly woman residing in Philadel-
phia, came to Troy . few days ago and
went to the Office of her former en-
ployer. She would not give her name,
but explained that when employed -
an operator in the factory thirty years
before she had ON . number OF occa-
sions 20 falsified her time sheets ~ to
be able to draw more than the sum to
which she was entitled. Her con-
science had troubled her all these years,
and by the direction Of the priest to
whom she had confessed she had come
ON from Philadelphia to make restitu-
ton. The manufacturer tried to -
sure her that the past was gone and for
gotten, and a. he had never had knowi-
cdexe OF these false time sheets it would
Be best to let the matter drop. He did
not want her money, but would freely
and fully grant his forgiveness, Il that
ra: what she had come Tor. "But you
must take the money" insisted the
woman, crying pitifully. II cannot say

TRIBUTE TO AMERICANS,


AT l01e comes q DIV Oh OpPxcC1etlOA
from : source whence It has long been
withheld. A young Englishman, who
has been doing the rounds of the Amer
lean citics, writes home in praise Of N,
and, better still, an English weekly,
the Gentlewoman, publishes it. az fol-
lows: 'sThe Americans simply love;
they are 10 wonderfully sympathetic
to one. There h no trouble they will
rot take, or personal Inconvenience
hey win not suffer, If in any way they
can render one . service" The name OF
this extraordinary young Eng1ishman
is not given or it should be blazoned
forth. !.
The weekly paper, In reproducing
the extract, takes its cue from 1t, and
urges Londoners and all English folk
to appreciate the ''boundlcss Kindness
and hospitality which they (Amer-
icans) heap upon vi" J" and be ready to
receive the strangers right royalty"
in return. It calls attention further
to the unprecedented influx of "men
and women from all parts Of the
United States" who are now crowding,
and will for the next six weeks crowd.
London, and then separate for wander
ines all over England, and makes .
plea that they be we'll treated. There
il q bit Of policy in its concluding ad-
vice, which every one who has suffered
the extortionate impertinence of the
London tradespeople-an imperti-
nence none the less because it II often
enveloped in fawning servility-will
say hearty " amen" to: I'm these
bad times Of depression in trade, 1T
would be as much to our advantage
as to theirs, not only to welcome. but
retain the Americans in England ~
long as possible. Not all Americans
are rich, though most are generous.
We are sadly in need Of their dollars,
hut need not be extortionate, for al
that"
One is provoked and indignant to
think of the thousands of dollars these
crowds Of Americans" will spend, not
only in England but through Europe.
before the autumn will send them
home again. Provoked because many
OF the thousands will go for things
that will be bought under the impress
sion that if they are the same price
they are better than can be bought at
home, while, if they are cheaper than
the same goods here, it will still be sup
posed that they are Of the same
quality.
A woman buying gloves in Paris
last summer was surprised at the price
charged her for the make of gloves
she was accustomed to buy for con-
siderably less in New York.
"Ah, madame" said the glib shop
girl, 'but we send only our 'seconds'
to New York" OF course this was
wholly untrue. It is absurd to sup
pose that skilled American wholesale
buyers are going to be imposed upon
with seconds of anything, much less
gloves, whose quality is known guam
tity every time to an expert in the
trade.
The same woman's experience in Lon
don was similar. Prices were always
equal, and often greater, than in New
York, but stress was invariably laid
on the superior wearing qualities, .
stress that was expensively disproved
in the case Of most articles. Tourists
from this country are looked upon
abroad every time as geese to lay golden
eggs. They are geese to give their gold
for the value they get, nine times out
Of tenn. T. Times.
