1T Is not hard to explain why the war

corn to the troops at 81, gold. for pack

only one item. q
The end Of the war to thess men means

toned to reading similar stun in the vel

HAVANA, March %, via Key West, Fla,
March 29.-At this writing Havana is quiet
1t lacks full Information as to the extent
and significance of the Presidents mes
sage. yet seems to realize fully from the
outlines given that the United States has
undertaken an early settlement of the
Cuban question. The opinion of many Is
that If the present week passes without
an outbreak there will be none. Predic-
tions cannot be made for many hours
ahead, yet the Indications now are fos
tranquility. 3
The disposition among Spanish classes OF
all degrees Is to wait for action from the
government in Madrid. Whatever policy
the Sagasta ministry determines is likely
to be supported here.

With great tact Florence Hull Win
terburn, in the January 'Woman's
Home Journal" handles the subject of
family quarrels under the caption, "A
House Divided Against Itself
Most family quarrels are frictional
disturbances that the oil Of affection
would smooth out, if we but knew it.
And most breaks between married peo-
pie could be healed by time, if they
would but give time chance. Between
a man and woman once bound together
by this tie there are memories potent
CULTS of discord, if they have only been
wise enough to be loyal to one another
in the respect of silence as to what be-
longs to themselves. 1t should be in
the marriage service, if it would do any
good, this vow of silence about each
others faults. The old formula, for
better, for worse means nothing to
most who repeat it. They mean in
their hearts not to put up with worse.
but we have to put up with some
thing wherever we are in the world, and
the question is, shall we not do better
to stand by our choice in life, like brave
soldiers loyal to color, and earn the
respect of the world, rather than exhib-
1t the miseries our poor judgment has
brought upon US, and gain only OPP
probrium in consequence? For pub
licity doubles trouble

DUTIES OF CHRISTIAN LIFE.
No Virtue in Daily Action Unless
1t Is Established in the Soul.

1.-THE obligations and duties of the
Christian life are not all external,
writes Cardinal Gibbons, pointing out a
Ladies Home Journal" They are
IL inly material, and must proceed from
the heart There is no virtue in ones
daily actions unless it be first estab-
lished in the soul, and is only an exter-
nal expression of the souls convictions
or prolongation of heartfelt sentiments.
Yet the external practice of Christian
duties, pertain to the integrity, if not to
the essential character, of the Christian
life. The interior sentiments soon per-
ish without external expression, as life
and bodily powers become extinct with
out due and proper exercise or employ
ment.
However, as the external duties are
rot absolutely, and under all circum-
stances. essential, they vary both in
number and frequency, according to en-
vironments and opportunities. A bust
ness man cannot do all that a clergy
man is expected to do; man in trade
not what a man in leisure can accom-
plish: nor a man of the world all that
is possible and easy or how much time
they can call their own, can and are
obliged to perform daily acts of prayer
and religion, and accomplish many
duties of virtue and charity. There is no
condition of life which is incompatible
with the dictates and principles and pre-
cepts of the Christian life"

tear up his clothes and everything else
upon which he could lay his hands, be-
coming altogether unmanageable. NJ.
lizard, however, observed that whenever
the boy looked down from hight he
became at once frightened and subnis-
sive and on one occasion when he
had run amuck," the Superintendent
neld him out of a window on the
third story. and made out that he would
throw him down. Cruel as this proceed
ing appears. it had the desired effect,
and from that day the boy became quiet,
neither did he ever afterward attempt
to tear up his clothes. BY degrees he
vas persuaded to put on clothes, but the
attempt to teach him the alphabet on
the deaf and dumb system proved as
frultless as his essays at speech.
For some time NJ. lizard persevered
with his strange pupil, but with no re-
suit; and although he was treated with
all humanity, the attempt to civilize
this unfortunate wild child ended in his
ceath. AS to the case of Peter the Wild
Boy, which became the chief topic of
conversation in most drawing rooms
during the year 1926, it is Questionable
whether he has really any right to take
his stand among wild children. This
child had evidently been abandoned by
his parents, but that he had known civ
ilization can be gathered from the fact
that when captured he was wearing a
shirt collar. and seemed rather pleased
than otherwise to meet With his cap
tors. George L., whose parsimony was
notorious. actually allowed him pen
sion of ESQ a year on his being sent to
England, and he was placed in a farm
house near North Church, in Herts.
Whether Peter would, had he lived, have
ever learned how to speak is doubtful,
for in all proba bilty he was an idiot.
Death, however, claimed him in III, his
life, says a contemporary biographer,
being a melancholy spectacle of savage
idiotism and uncivilized nature.
