JUSTICE AS SHE Is ,JUSTED.

The following, which we clip
from the telegraphic columns of
the Minneapolis Journal, does not
require any fore paws or foot notes
to explain the hellish cruelties
which some people may commit
with impunity and receive a nomi-
nal fine where life sentence in
prison would be more appropriate
Owatonna, Mimi, May 2S.-George
White and wife of Blooming Prairie
were convicted in the municipal court
of cruelty treating Willie Litteg, half
brother of Mrs. White, 8 years old. His
parents live at Aurora Park, Chicago.
He was brought here last fall and ever
since has been the victim of cruelty at
the hands of White and his wife. The
complaint was made by the officers of
the school district. The testimony
showed that they had for some trivial
delinquencieS or failures to do what
they required of him, punished him in
the most cruel manner. They filled his
mouth with paper and set fire to it;
beat him with an iron poker, after a
heavy club had been broken; made him
sleep in straw stacks night after night
in the coolest weather last winter, so
that his feet were badly frozen. Three
toes on one foot and the great toe on
the other having already come off,
making him cripple for life His
hands are now badly swollen from be-
ing compelled to milk six COWS twice a
day, and he was punished if he failed
to thoroughly milk them. The court
gave them the maximum punishment
800 each and costs, 1854. They
raised the money. The boy was sent
to the state public school for the
present.

IT is sometimes difficult to dis
Germ between the honest man and
a professional hypocrite at first

case when placarded religion is
used as shield. A short acquaint-
ance, however, is usually sufficient
to reveal the fraud. Look out for

A STAGE-STRUCK young woman
in the east has consented to the
amputation Of a middle finger in
consideration of fee of $1,000. It
was done in answer to a surgeon S
advertisement, he having rich
patient who desired a new finger
grated ON her hand to replace one
injured by disease. This may be
a good way in which to get some
cheap advertising for the young
lady, but we are inclined to have a
very poor opinion Of the qualities
Of young woman who will thus
deform herself for a few paltry
dollars.

to cook palatable dishes.

MANY besotted, worthless
wretch has been brought to gen
uine realization of the beauties of
life and the good he might accom-
plish in it by a simple "Good
morning" or other kind word from
one whose true worth he intuitively
appreciated. Whenever you meet
those whom the world despise give
them a kindly word Of cheer. If
you are good enough to put such
high value on your worth as to
necessitate the stunning of erring
ones you are certainly above the
possibility of evil contagion from
them. Perhaps a word Of cheer
from you would touch the mystic
chord of good and thus arouse with
in one a desire to mend his ways
and be as you are. Do not shun a

Before everything else the
young woman has a right to ex-
pect from her husband tenderness,
sympathy and faith,'' says Ruth
Ashmore, writing in the June
Ladies' Home Journal of "What to
Expect from a Young Man" ''But
sometimes, in his eagerness to
make all life fair to her, he fancies
she is a doll, and not a woman.
And doll is a very selfish toy: it
demands careful treatment all the
time, and it gives nothing but a
pretty appearance in return. 1t is
the foolish wife who expects in
fallibility in her husband. She
forgets that there is a difference
between the housewife and the
house moth. She should expect
from her husband politeness at all
times, and a certain gentleness
that every man, possessing the real
instinct of a man, gives to woman.
But she should not expect from
him too much. She has no right
whatever to ask of him permission
to live lazy life herself, and to

A New YORK state senator who
recently attempted to murder a
prominent editor on account of ar
ticles published in his paper, en-
tered a plea Of guilty to an indict-
ment charging him with aggravated
assault. He was sentenced to pay
a fine of 500 and serve one mi
mute in Jail. Wasn't that nice, for
the poor senator?

A MAN in Kingston, N. Y, is la
boring under the delusion that he
is the homeliest man in the world

avoid possible rash act whenever
he confronts the looking-glass. If

such an admission what a weight
it would take from the hearts of he1

THE ERRORS OF THE PAST.

IT IS not very uncommon to
hear one whose life has not been
what he thought it should be say,
"If [ could only be a boy again
what different life [ would leadv'
Such a sentiment touches a re-
sponsive chord in the heart of
every mortal. It matters not that
the world may select a certain
man and in speaking of him ex-
claim, "There is a smart man, a
happy man, or a successful man,
The one alluded to will tenderly
harbor the wish to be a boy again,
to live over his life and eradicate
the mistakes HE knows he has
made. We all seek perfection, but
no mortal will attain it. A wise
Providence has willed it that no
matter how high we climb the lad
der of earthly fame or wisdom,
there is ever an unattainable height
before us which is continually
drawing us onward to it but which
our finite powers cannot reach.
The scientist who makes discov-
cries in the planetary system that
cause his name to be heralded
throughout the civilized world,
knows better than his ignorant
fellow man how far removed is the
most advanced of the human race
from a possible perfection.
Thus it has been, thus it ever will
be. Man has never been thorough
ly satisfied, nor can he hope to be
on this earth. But as a remedy
for past carelessness why not be il
man again in experience instead of
wishing for the impossible? We
cannot return to boyhood; we can
not live our life over again in years:
but we may in deeds, aided by the
experience Of the past. If we
allow the prime of life to pass
without making an effort to re-
deem the mistakes of youth and
early manhood, old age will find
us wishing to be in that prime
again. Why not start in NOW
TO any and all men whether in
prison or out, we would reiterate.
why not start in now? The pres
ent is all we have to work on: ONLY
the EXPERIENCE gained in the past
is ours. Why not start in at
once with that experience as a
capital to carve out and give life
to the ideal existence we so often
depict on the tablet of the mind
In all likelihood we will not reach
the ideal we may have pictured
but in the effort to attain it we
will improve our present condi-
ton a hundred fold. Do not be 6

THE MIRROR is weekly paper published

in 1887 by the prisoners and is edited and man
aged by them. Its objects are to be a home
newspaper; to encourage moral and intellectual
improvement among the prisoners; to acquaint
the public with the true STATUS of the prisoner;
to disseminate pathological information and to aid
in diSpelling that prejudice which has ever been
the bar sinister to a fallen mans Self-redemptiOn.

conduct of their children? This
is a question that is certainly de-
serving Of the sincere attention Of
all parents who take the slightest
interest in life aside from the
mere form of existing as comforta-
bly, as possible. It would be the
acme Of pusillanimous subterfuge
for any man to attempt the trac-
ing Of his present misfortune or i'll
luck to the carelessness of parents
during his youthful training. Still
it is admitted on all sides that Gas
the twig is bent so will the tree
grow" Youthful impressions are
indellible; they remain with us
and influence our every act
throughout life. The question is,
were the good influences Of the
home life in youth sufficiently
strong to counteract the evil in
fluences acquired by all children
in their mingling with others out
side the home circle?
It is but natural to infer that all
parents would instinctively i'm
press their children with the loft
lest views Of life possible to the
child's comprehension. Yet out
side the family circle the character
Of the child is ever being fashioned
by what is seen and heard from
companions. 1t is mere matter
of which impressions have been
the most forcefully implanted in
the plastic nature of the child.
To a sceptic the strongest proof
of a guiding Providence is the
very helplessness in youth Of the
future lords Of creation. In every
other species Of existence we see
the power of self-sustenance given
almost simultaneously with life.
But lordly man must be fed and
guarded carefully for generation
that he may be able to properly
fulfill his part in life. It is Sec
ond nature with the human mother
that her child shall have her I'M
divided attention long after the
ability to satisfy the natural crav-
ings of the body has been reached.
Do parents in general take the
pains they should in moulding the
character of the child? The ma
jority in all probability do. But
we have that minority ever with
us who, through gross ignorance
or carelessness, raise children about
the same as farmer would hogs.
They are anxious to have their
children strong and sleek appear
ing, with a smattering of school
learning and a stereotyped dose Of
religious education, and there the
matter ends SO far as they are con-
cerned. Moral training! Why,
that is Greek to them. "Teachers
and preachers are paid for that. !"
They have never discovered that
mothers training in moral matters
must erect the foundation for
teachers and preachers to build
upon.
Between the ages Of three and
seven years the mother can do
more in the building of a child's
character than the combined efforts
of the profoundest pedagogues will
attain in after years. Providence
has implanted in the maternal
heart fountain of knowledge in
spired by love that can do more
for the welfare of the human race
than all the academies and uni
vnrSities IF the world WOn]d to
God that all mothers fully appre-
ciated the power vested in them.
We are proud to chronicle the fact
that no mother wantonly over
looks this power; but many, yes, too
many, do not exert it to the extent
that they may. 1t is principally
