THE MOUTH.

A boy was compelled by his teacher
to write an essay on "the mouth" for
some infraction of the school discipline,
and this is what he said: "Your mouth
is the front door to the face; it is the
aperture to the cold storage OF your
anatomy. Some mouths look like
peaches and cream, some look like u
hole in brick wall to admit new door
or window. The mouth is hotbed for
toO.hache, and the bung hole of oratory.
The mouth is the crimson aisle to our
liver: it is patriotism's fountain. and
the tool chest for pie. Without a
mouth the politician would be wander
er on the face Of the earth and go down
in an unhonored grave. 1t is the gro
GERS friend, the orators pride and the
dentists hope. Itputs some men on the
rostrum and some in Jail. 1t is tempta-
tion's lunch counter when attached to a
maiden, and tobacco's friend when at
tached to a man. Without 1t married
life would be like a summer dream and
dude would lose half his attraction"

Some person or persons in Reynolds
willie are violating the law BY selling
cigarettes 10 boys under the age pre-
scribcd by the law. We don't know
" ho is doing this. but IT remains fact,
Just the same. that boys can buy cigar
cites in this town. Cigarettes mean
misery and death 10 the boys who hab-
itually smoke them, and II the ladies of
the w. G. r. U want to do n good work
they should have the cigarette law
posted in every business place, whore
cigarettes are sold, and inform the pro-
pretor thereof that If the law is not re-
spected Il will be enforced. We don't
believe there is a business man In town
who would object To this, especially
when he knew that all were expected
tO obey the law or get into trouble. IL
is Il common thing on our streets to see
boys from tO Ii years of age pulling II
cigarette. The following is the opinions
of Prof. j. A. McLaughry, superintend-
eut of the public schools of Sharon. Pa,
on cigarette smoking:
''Ir parents could 500 the effects Of this
noxiOus habit us | see II, and as our
teachers sec 1t, they would not rest un-
til they had succeeded in keeping the
cigarettes from their boys. 1t is ruin

physically. II Is an every day occur.
ence for teachers to talk with me con
cerning pupils who are not keeping up
the work with their class, aud 30 per
cent. of these pupils are boys, and in n
large majority OF cases the teacher will
attribute the cause to cigarette smok-
ing. The cigarette smokers can be
distinguished from the others almost rs
readily as the poor readers can be dis
tinguished from the good readers: the
oireisive odor, the sallow skin, nervous
ness, defective memory and application
To study impossible. Tho practice is
not permitted on the school grounds,
and we strive to teach them the evil
effects, but Notwithstanding this the
growth Of the habit is alarming. Par
ents sometimes complain because their
boys are not making more rapid pro-
gress and lay the blame on the teacher.
No teacher can develop the mind OF a
pupil when he Is taking into his system

making wreck of his body. The great
enemy to the public schools, the chief
obstacle to building character is the
cigarette, and | wish our newspapers
would arouse the public to action and
impress upon them the fact that this is
the most important question of the
hour, and public sentiment may be such
that u boy will feel it is II disgrace to
be seen with cigarette, rather than
feel AS he does that 1t is making man
of him. The question Is often asked
Where do they get the cigarettes when
there is law against the sale Of them:
1t is not at ali probable that they are
purchased by older persons and Civ
EN- to the boys. Some persons are un'
doubtedly selling them illegally, and
they should be detected and punished
to the full extent of the law. 1t Il
hoped that the people will interest
themselves in this matter"

"There is always a remedy for heavy

"There Is always a remedy for q heavy
heart" writes Ruth Ashmore in the
March Ladies' Home Journal. 'It may
be in work-it oftenest is. II may be
in thinking out the joys that have been
given to you, and the sorrows from
which you have been saved. II may be in
helping others by sympathy, or in
whatever way help is most needed
But the heavy heart can always be made
light II self is forgotten, and the needs
Of others are remembered, and as far as
possible, relieved. Not one of us can
learn to become light-hearted in day.

is the lesson of life, this knowing how
10 lift our hearts up and give from them
help unto those who are in need. 1t is
a good tight-this one against allowing
ones self to be submerged in personal
griefs-it is good fight, and out of 1t
you can come conqueror il you will.
Do you intend to give up the fight and
fall by the wayside overcome by heavy
heart, or to go along through life as a
brave woman should? You must decide
this early In life. And you will, feel
sure, decide to do that which is right,
and then your heart will never be heavy
nor your conscience disturbed, unless
you fall. And when you fall, thank
God, you can always rise again II you
keep up brave heart"
