THE RELATION OF MITES TO
NIGHTS

Some writer has said, in substance,
that there are no breaks in history
that it is continuous record of the
forces influencing humanity, and the
only breaks we note are those in the
forces productive of hlstOry.' In
other words, the ideas producing his
tory continue their activity through
those periods. even, which leave no
records behind by which to trace it's
progress. Long periods of silence are
found in history: many breaks in his
tory producing forces are noted, but
the actuating ideas are continuous in
their course. Like an empty boat on a
mighty river, driven by the current
first to one shore, then the other, yet
always advancing with the current, so
human ideas of the past must go with
with the current of progress. Like
the empty boat they have served their
purpose and, discarded by their users,
they now only serve to point the
method of advance.
Inc current or history is StreWn
with these empty ideas in every form;
their value lies in pointing the ever
increasing strength of those forces
which make the history of the race.
The forces which move humanity
today or tomorrow, all tend toward
one result: the uplifting of humanity,
the betterment of social life and con-
ditions. True, there may be back
currents, eddies and dead waters in
human affairs retarding, for time,
humanity progress; but sooner or later
the leaven of right--of human right
foments humanity and the current of
events, which, had they been unrestrict-
ed, would have run smoothly in its chan
mel, pour forth on every side sweeping

life are at the bottom of the mistakes
and carelessness in nearly all crimes?
Are not parents partly responsible for
their wayward sons destruction, dur
ing their youth? The precocious
child, especially, should receive our
most careful attention, for there is
more than grain of truth in the old
adage that genius at five is madness
at fifteen.'' 1 am myself convinced
that precOcity is quite as often an indi-
cation of morbidity as it is of genius.
In rare instances it fulfills its promises
but it only does so when the overactive
and unequally developed brain receives
proper nOurishment and judicious ex-
erciSe.
If the early training be wrong, dis
appointment is sure to result, and "the
huddled knowledge" as Disraell says,
"like corn neglected in we'll stored
granary, perishes in its own Masses
Parents neglect of their children,
is unjustifable; it leads to sure destruc-
tion. The nobleness of life depends on
it's consistency, cIearness of purposes
and ability; and these must be i'm
pressed upon the youth of the country

ideals, even while it destroys the exist
ing ideals.
Could we pick up every moving
force in our existing social life, and
trace its every step backward to its
origin we would find that somewhere,
single indivual set in motion, by
word or deed, this force; and whether
it be in art, science or literature, in
religion or philosophy, their develop
ment as social forces to existing
society has been impregnated by war.

DOES CRIME PAY?

The question that should present it.
self to the view of a criminal, is: "Does
Crime Pay?" Is the easy life and the
pleasant dissipation of few weeks or
months sufficient recompense for the
years of burdensOme toll, the harsh dis
cipline and the odium of long and
tOilsome term in prison?
No one has reached years of discre-
ton who has not heard of the anxiety
and anguish which is brought into the
family of the man who has committed
a felony. After crime followed dis
grace, anguish and degradation.
Leaving out all considerations of
morality, the life of the criminal is
harder than that of the humblest toiler
at the most menial employment How
does a young man come to live
criminal life? Is it not that crime is
largely the outgrOwth of corrupt asso-
citation? Many young man is ruined
by his associates; doubtless, his first
offense was joined in without any in
tention or thought of becoming thief.
Getting taste of money dishonesty
gained and spent in dissipation, the
steps to crime are rapidly and easily
made. From mischievous, marauding
and incidental thievery, they soon
branch out into crimes of more seri-
Gus nature, and become hardened
criminals. How long does man
follow criminal pursuits without detec-
ton? Or is there ever one out of ten
who escapes the law after life of
criminal pursuit without being con-
fined in prison for long period of
years? When once a man is led into
crime he sinks deeper into the mire of
evil; he goes blindly on, not caring
what the danger he may be in.
Now, the question is: Does such
career pay? Let me here anticipate
the question which is no doubt fOrmu-
ating in the readers mind: "Do not
all crimes involve risk?' Has there
ever yet been man who has made a
fortune of crime? There is no recorded
prosperity in criminal annals. What a
man gains dishonesty he spends in ex-
travagant living. Living beyond ones
means is the besetting evil of social
life; it not only costs money but
character.
Gambling is but branch that leads
to crime. Thousands have first been
made aware by its destinations of their
own moral weaknesses, of which before
they had no suspicion. A man who
makes his living by gambling is re-
garded as criminal, for no man can
make sufficient living out of gam
bling without cheating those ignorant
of the game. The man who is known
as professional gambler is nothing
but card sharper. And how many
thousands of families are annually
ruined by these card sharpers?
Honesty is the only policy that is
worth following. No sane person
would wish to wrong another if GER
tain that he would be simultaneously
or inevitably wronged in the same
degree. We never deliberately wrong
another except for some personal graf
iicatlon or supposed advantage to
ourselves. Even those who lead the
most irregular and sinful lives are
always prompt to discern and resent
wrong perpetrated by another, and to
appeal to tribunals of justice. But
above all else, is it not that lack of
proper training in the early years of

UNBIDDEN OBSERVATIONS.

AS we glance over the lines that have
been inspired by great and noble minds
minds that are long since spent and
laid to rest-we drink in every word
with "feeling of unquenchable thirst"
Each word seems to be laden with the
sweet breath of the flowers, and borne
on angel wings to the hearts of suffer
ing humanity. In every sentence there
is balm and inspiration for the higher,
the nObler and the better.
AS we read we look ahead upon the
path which must yet be trod, and crave
the possession of that high ideal as it
is imprinted upon our own mind, hop
ing, thirsting, lOnging-longing for
something which seems to be out of
our sphere and beyond our reach.
Luxury and wealth may abound; our
lives may be one continual summer of
idleness and pleasure; still, we are un.
satisfied.
So the question forces itself upon us,
can humanity ever be satisfied this side
of eternity? If so, when, where, and
with what? 1t certainly will not be
with self, as we are, for that would
mean little purgatOry all of our own.
What do we see in the lives of the
noble, or in the literature which has
been handed down through the ages to
the people of the present day, which
fills us with such admiration, and fires
our hearts with a longing for the pure
and true? Is it the outward being of
the noble, or the Silken finish of the
manuscript which calls forth our ad-
miration? All! no; it is that noble
character in the heroes which enables
them to enjoy life in its fullest sense,
and see in their surroundings that
which is beautiful and lOvable. That
is what we admire and what we long
for, for it seems almost superhuman in
purity and beauty. and humanity by
nature, was formed to enjoy such.
Now, if character is what beauties
the present life and insures the future,
humanity need thirst no longer, for our
path may be smoothed by each indi-
vidual effort. Sound the key note to
character which is honesty the
rest will vibrate in harmony. Pay the
tribute we owe to ourselves and to our
manhood, then, the beautiful and noble
will rule supreme, and peace and unity
will dwell among all mankind.
Let us hope for such day, land
while we "hope'' it will not hurt to
pray,) and let the intervening time be-
tween this time and that be wholly de-
voted to the upbuilding of true and
noble character, and nature, which
means victory.
"Honesty is the quintessence of all
noble natures, and conscience the true
pilot of life." Is this imagination, or
is it reality? G. J. c..

TRUTH SHALL CONQUER.

The man is thought a knave, or fool.
Or a bigOt plotting crime.
Who for the advancement of his race,
Is wiser than his time.
For him the hemlOck shall distill;
For him the ak be bared
For him the giDbet shall be built;
For him the stake prepared;
Him shall the scOrn and wrath of power
Pursue with deadly aim;
And malice, envy. spite and lies
Shall desecrate his name.
But truth shall conquer at the last.
For round and round we run;
And ever right comes uppermOst,
And ever is Justice done.
Pace through thy cell, old Socrates,
Cheerly to and fro;
Trust to the impulses of thy soul
And let the poison flow.
They may shatter to earth the lamp of clay
That holds light divine,
But they cannot quench the fire of thought
By any such deadly wine;
They cannot blot thy spoken words,
From the memory of man.
By all the poison e'er was brewed
Since time its course began.
Today abhOrred. tomorrow adOred,
So round and round we run,
And ever Truth comes uppermOSt.
And ever is Justice done.
And live there now such men as these
With thoughts like the great of old?
Many have died in their misery.
And left their thoughts untold,
And many lived and ranked as mad.
And placed in the worlds cold ban
For sending their bright, far-seeing souls
Three centuries in the van;
They tOiled in penury and grief.
Unknown if not maligned;
ForlOrn. fOrlOrn, bearing the scorn
OF the meaneSt of mankind;
But the world goes round and round
And the genial seasons run.
And ever Truth comes uppermOst
And ever is Justice done.
