Such one is that with which a gray
haired grandfather continues to awaken
his youngest daughter, though she Is

bina- Marie, it's another day. Do you

This father seldom fails to include in
the thanks OF his breakfast grace an
expression of gratitude for the light OF
another morning, and when the day is
over he leads the household in a service
which differs wholesomely from the for
NAL and severe family worship Of
time-honored usage.
When the evening meal Is concluded.
while all are gathered still around the
table, the cloth is cleared and the book
in convenient size, is handed to a son
or daughter, who reads with intelligent
expression some thoughtfully selected
passage Of moderate length, after which
all heads are bowed reverently while
the father offers a short prayer.
The prayer dwells upon the welfare OF
humanity at large, rather than upon the
needs of the little circle, thus bringing
to those needs their truest satisfying
by merging them in the wider needs Oh
the great world. 1t is a prayer of out
look and uplift-a prayer of finite

IN THE MORNING.
Call Children to the Days Duties
With Kindly Greeting.

It is proverbiaI that a rude or unpleas-
ant awakening in the morning is as bad
for the health as 1t is ruffling to the
temper.
Physicians deprecate the calling OF
children to the days duties with un-
kindness or tmpatience, or getting
them up" as it phrased. by the use OF
rough treatment or practical Jokes.
While the more heroic methods are
dying out along with the popular faith
in the fallacious adage. EARLY to bed
and early to rise makes man healthy,
wealthy and WISE" yet in many fami-
lies the measure OF fretful impatience
dealt out to children in the process OF
awakening them Is great enough to
darken the morning sunshine.
That the impatience is born of the
cares and unhappiness Of the elders
does not cause it to find slower response
in the children upon whom IT is visited
Indeed, the instructive perception of its
origin, instead of affording to the child
ish mind an excuse, brings with 1t a
sense OF injustice. which II itself an
added provocatdon to resentment
So many parents err In this matter OF
morning courtesy to their children that

1t cheer for the day, together with an
undertone Of sympathy for the worries

A Fable Up to Date.

A learned dog was one day carrying a
copy of Browning to his home In cross
ing a stream he saw what he thought
was another dog and another book. He
was somewhat near sighted, but he
loved books, and he grabbed for the
shadow and lost the substance. AS he
sat ON the bridge and watched his book
drift down stream he grasped an idea
He knew that all dog nature is alike
and he arranged net down stream te
catch all that might drift into it. Ther
he advertised the bridge extensively and
soon he had one Of the finest libraries
in the land, which cost him nothing.

pledged by it's history and declarations.

Mr. Bryam's effort TO explain away
the fatal platform declaration in the
Nfe-tenure clause is one of the most
painful and opaque things we have ever
read. We venture the assertion that
Mr. Bryan cannot himself explain what
he meant by his explanation. We give
it in his own words, and it will be seen
that neither eloquence nor a diarrhoea
Of adroit words give it lucidity:
They complain about that plank
which declares against life tenure in
office. They have tried to strain 1t to
mean that which it does not mean.
What we oppose In that plank Is the
life tenure that is being built up at
Washington, which excludes from par

DR.. Arabella Keneally, In the HUI

She is but an ephemeral eruption on
the face Of progress, an eruption that
will shortly fade and show the world a
new complexion of things" If you
want a real hard thing said of woman,
go to a woman. There Is not a man on
the face of the footstool who could have
spoken SO harshly of even the new
woman, no matter how he might have
tried. However, the occasion Of DR..
Keneally's rap at the new woman is
found in her vigorous protest against
what shall we call 1.-THE shame, the
consciousness Of sex among women. Un-
Questionably 1t is true, as she protests,
that there is q false education which
unhappily obtains among women, teach
ing them to be ashamed of that which
ought to be their glory. Why the prom
Use Of motherhood should make any
woman ashamed the doctor cannot un-
derstand. But 1t Is probably, as she
surmises, because from their earliest
years girls find the subject of sex ta-
booed as belonging to the indecorous,
as a topic which, II broached at all. Is

rily dismissed: one which 1t is not nice

of the human mystery that gave them
birth. That this degradation of the
most important Of human functions
leads to incalculable evil Is not to be
denied. II such protests as DR.. Ke-
neally's will serve even in some small
degree to remove the false modesty that
now cloaks a great evil, she will not have
written In vain.

THE FINANCIAL QUESTION.

There is not the slightest doubt that a
great majority of the people Of the
United States are in favor of larger
use of silver in the money transactions
Of the country. The question is how can
this be brought about with the least
shock TO business and to what extent
can 1t be safely carried? Nearly every
one you meet claims to be q bimetal-
list, but there is a wide difference h
ideas as to what bimetallism Is. The a,d-
vocate OF the free and unlimited coin
age of silver at a ratio OF 16 to claims
that he is in favor of a bimetallic stand
ard, while those who favor the present
system declare that they are the true BIZ
metaalists and that free coinage Of sill
yer at 16 to l means silver monometal-
hsnh The arguments in favor of each
OF these positions would fill volumes
The Record Union" is fully In ac-
cord with the demand for a larger use Of
silver. We believe that there Is safe
middle ground upon which those having
the best interests of the country at
heart can unite and secure the desired
result-an enlarged use of silver-with-
out encountering the dangers feared
from the free and absolutely un-
limited coinage of silver at a ratio Of
16 to 1. To accomplish this we would
make all kinds of silver coinage legal
tender for sums of $50 and less; issue
no bills or coin of gold, or based on gold,
for less than $40; coin the bullion now
in the treasury amounting to $50, ,000,-
OO0- This would practically make silver
a legal tender, for nearly all domestic
bills can be paid in silver. This course
would put in circulation four or five
hundred millions of silver, because
transactions will necessarily be in sill
yer. since there will be nothing in the
gold form Of less than $40. There is
nothing in the Republican platform to
prevent that party from adopting this
solution Of the question

the hostess would call her own coach

Also, for another pretty trait, there
were ladies, but not great ladies, who
gave frequent card parties and found
their hospitality profitable on account
Of the "card money" At that time

Pebblelike beans.

A curious case of "mimicry" has
been noticed on the coast near Manila,
in the Philippine islands. The seeds Of
bean fall among quartz pebbles, and
so closely resemble them in shape, size,
color. luster, hardness and stratifcation
as to be distinguishable from them only
by a very close examination. The beans
range from third of an inch to an inch
in size, and vary greatly in shape also,
some resembling well rounded beach
pebbles and others mimic pebbles that
have been broken across. The color
varies from dark to light drab, some
with greenish tinge, while others re-
semble pebbles Of chalcedony or crystal
lized quartz. Nearly all show series
of dark bands, suggestive Of stratifica-
tion. All are hard, and clink when
shaken together. r.-Rochester Democrat
and Chronicle.
