A DIFFERENCE IN THE HARVEST

It is often common remark in re-
gard to a young mans character, she
is only sowing his wild oats," and the
manner in which it is said shows that
the evil conduct on his part is kindly
CLOSED over as if such things were
really necessary factor in forming
his character. But let a young woman
commit ever so small an indiscretiOn,
and the hullabaloo that is raised about
it is simply immense. The scandal will
follow her to her grave. No one says
she will be all right when she gets
through sowing her wild oats. Indeed
wild oats sowing seems to be male
prerogative. The girls own sex will
point the finger of scorn at her, while
at the same time, perhaps, they are
keeping company with young men
whose characters are so black that
charcoal would make white mark on
them. The woman must be stoned So
cially, but the man can 60 scot free.
We claim that "what is sauce
for the goose is sauce for the gan
DER When young man or a
young woman starts in the business
of sowing wild oats let there be an
equal distribution of the crop that is
reaped; let the social stripes of correc-
tion be impartially administered to
both. If the young woman is ostra-
cized let the young man be kicked out
of decent society. That is the kind of
medicine we would deal out.-Water-
Vile (Minn.) Gazette.
The mirror. (Stillwater, Minn.) 1894-1925, 1897-05-20

A young man in business nowadays
with an ambition to be successful must
also be careful of his social life. It is
not enough that he should take care of
himself during the day. 10 social dis
sipations at night can be traced the
downfall of hundreds upon hundreds
of young men. The idea that an en-
plOyer has no control over young
mans time away from the office is
dangerous fallacy. An employer has
every right to ask that those into
whose hands he intrusts responsible
ties shall follow social habits which
will not endanger his interests upon
the morrow. So far as social life is
concerned, young men generally run to
both extremes. Either they do not go
out at all, which is stagnating, or they
go out too much, which is deadly.
Only here and there is found one who
knows the happy medium. A certain
amount of social diversion is essential
to everybody, boy, man, girl or woman.
And particularly so to young man
with career to make. To come into
contact with the social side of people
is broadening: it is educative. "To
know people," says writer, "you
must see them at play Social life
can be made study at the same time
that it is made a pleasure. To know
the wants of people, to learn their
softer side, you must come into contact
with their social natures. No young
man can afford to deny himself certain
pleasures, or reasonable amount of
contact with people in the outer world.
1t is to his advantage that people
should know he exists: what his aims
and aspirations are. 1t is we'll for a
young man to keep himself honorably
in the eyes of the public. His evening
occupations should be as widely diff
ferent from those which occupy him
during the day as possible. The mind
needs change of thought as we'll as
does the body change of raiment.
Gall work and no play makes Jack a
dull boy" contains vast amount of
truth.
At the same time, nothing is more

and quick caress the mother bestows on
her child. Ah who can fathom the
depth of that love or tell of the whis-
pered longings, the higher aspirations,
the brighter hopes and purer thoughts
that may be stealthily lurking in the
shadowed recesses of her mind, as that
mother gazes in shame and silence
upon perhaps the only link to, the only
desire for existence.
And when boyhood's days have
flown, and we are fighting the battle
of life away from the home of luxury
or simplicity, does memory fail us?
All, no. Risen in fame or sunk in ig-
nominy, at the shrine of fortune or
poverty's door, in distant lands, here
or there, as it may be, memory rolls
back the curtain of the past and we
see that mother, constant, loving, ten
der. true; gazing with moistened eye
on the bOyish picture ever dear. Each
mornings dawn intensifies the look of
love and yearning; each evening soft
ems with hope the longing of the morn,
and then, when the evening chapter
has been read, and the weary soul
seeks rest in peace, then see that aged
mother sink to her knees to offer up
each night as the weary years 60 by,
an earnest, trusting, silent prayer to
the Giver of good, the Guardian of
life.
The father may fail and friends for
sake, time and distance rush between,
yet while hope lasts and life fingers
the mothers love ne'er fades or falters.
The pollen may fall, the rose may
wither, blighting frost may kill the
bush; still, deep in the soil of infinite
love, its root holds firm to sprout and
blossom. Can not each of us here to-
day contribute from memory's record,
incidents which evidence its bridging
of time and distance o'er-leaping the
abyss of sin and crime to hover, like
heavenly halo, above wasted mis-
spent life?
All! reader, on every human wave of
eternitys sea rises cleaning crest of
maternal love, sweeping onward to
dash against rugged waste line or
sink in calm and peaceful rest. But
then, who can say what payment may
be given, what reward there be in store
for her who held it not too great price
to pay for pain and care, for sorrows,
toll and fear, holy sanctified, an eter
nal love?

HASTY JUDGMENT.


n..,,ss..s"
Don't be too hasty to construe
The motives of another.
Let charity with mantle true
Enfold your lowly brother.
You cannot know what tenderness
Within his heart is hidden,
Nor why at grief and sore distress
His tears will flow unbidden.
Though rough his hands and deeply lined
With coarse trademarks of labor,
By these you may not gauge the mind
Of him that is your neighbOr.
His garb may be of common grade
Well patched and sadly faded
Not by this scale should he be weighed,
Nor by this standard graded.
To glance at ocean deep and wide
When summer smiles enwreath it,
Is not the way to gauge the tide,
That swiftly runs beneath it!
A plummet and deep-sea line
Must be employed to sound it.,
BY these we may the truth divine,
Rejoicing when we've found it.
The rugged rocks that hilltOps crown
May be devoid of beauty
To guard some treasure deeply down
May be their bounden duty.
To find the jewel in the clay,
There must be constant labor;
'Tis by hasty glance we may
MiSjudge worthy neighbOr.

young man carries himself in his

him in his business career. No matter

We know well enough that ants are
the mCst advanced of all the insect
world, that they can talk to one an
other and have regular laws and regu-
lations i'll their tiny colonies. But the
last discovery about them is, perhaps,
the most astonishing of all. A natural
ist has been makirg observations on
their toilet and has discovered that
each insect goes through cleaning
process as elaborate as that of a cat,
only not performed by herself, but by
another, who acts for the time as lady s
maid.
Ants of the genus alta were the
subject of these observations. These, he
found, slept in relays for about three
hours. When they woke up, they would
stretch their limbs just like warm
blooded animals Even under the micro
scope he could watch them yawn. Then
begins the toilet. The assistant starts
by washing the face of her companion
and goes on to the thorax and legs. The
attitude of the cleansed is one of in
tense satisfaction, resembling that of a
dog or cat when its head is being
scratched. She lies down with all her
limbs stretched loosely out, she rolls
over on her side, even her back, per-

creature takes in being thus combed and

One day in October 1888, Lady A.,
living in Rue du Bel Respiro, Paris,
found that she had been robbed of Il
sum of 3, 500 francs. She notified the

nicknamed "le Petit" not on account

she could not name the thief, he would

companies to the royal table with an
air of affectionate solicitude and sees
that they are partaken of at the proper

Edison's Marriage.

The idea of the great electrician Edi-
son marrying was first suggested by an
intimate friend, who told him that his
large house and numerous servants
ought to have a mistress. Although "a
very shy man, he seemed pleased with
the proposition and timidly inquired
whom he should marry. The friend
somewhat testify replied, "Any one. ="
But Edison was not without sentiment
when the time came. One day, as he
stood behind the chair of Miss Still
well, telegraph operator m his en-
ploy, he was not "a little surprised when
she suddenly turned round and said,
Mr.. Edison, can always tell when
you are behind me or near me. 1t was
now Miss Stillwell's turn to be sur
prised, for Edison fronted the young
lady, and, looking her full, said, I've
been thinking considerably about you
of late, and if you are willing to marry
me would like to marry you. Tho
young lady said she would consider the
matter and talk it over with her mother.
The result was that they were married
month later, and the union proved a
very happy one. San Francisco Argo-

"You luke at it, SIR" was the reply.

A Disastrous Phrase.

What great consequences sometimes
result from the quick wit of man who
sees the full bearings of an event is il
lustrated by an incident in the life of
the late Colonel John Tracey. In 1884
he was reporter OH the New York Star
and did work for the Democratic ma
tional committee. He was at the Fifth
Avenue hotel when the delegation of
olergymen called upon Mr.. Blaine. He
was listening carelessly to the addresses
which were being made, when his ear
caught the phrase, party of rum, Ro-
manism and rebellion, which the Rev.
DIR. Burchard uttered. He knew that it
was the intention of the reporters to
give small space to the speeches and
thought the chances were good that the
now famous expression would not be
quoted. Seeing the use to which he
could put it for the Democratic party,
he rushed to telegraph Office and sent
a short dispatch to several papers and
to the party headquarters. There was
time enough before election for the re-
mark to do its work and not enough for
any sufficient antidote TO be applied. 1t
is admitted that the expression had a
marked and perhaps decisive effect upon
the election. Tracey's alert mind had
affected the future of the country i'll a
thousand ways. Buffalo Express
