By the YouAg,

The universal fraility Of our human
nature which dislikes TO be told OF faults
must be taken into consideration whsn
we converse with our grown!uD chill
dren. After they pass tho ags Of 1lo1
IS they usually betray greater sensi-
tiveness than before to even reasonable
fault~Anding. BY the timo they reach
10 or 20 this tendency has become .
marked trait They have then become
substantially like the rest Of US. Even
from the lips Of loving fathers or moth
ers and in strict privacy they want
nothing but the same sort Of honey on
which our own souls love to
feed. They wish no allusion made
to the facts that they are ac-'
quiring nasal tones; that their
gait is awkward; that their taste In
dress is uniformed and even bad; that
they have not good judgment In choos-
ing associates, and SO on. Private dis
courses upon the wiles of the world and
the weaknesses of youth and its prone
ness to wander they wish none Of. What
ever medicine of that sort is to be given
must be administered in small doses,
interjected with skill into conversations
upon ordinary matters, and sugar.
coated, II possible, with artful COM
pliment, though it should be always de-
served. Even the best and dearest of
our carefully brought-up young people
are likely to have their year or more Of
obstinacy and "pig-headedness" or their
permanent streaks of funreasonableness
and contumacy. Therefore, they would
betterreceive most of the telling strokes
that mold into shape before they reach
the age Of IA. From that time up to
the age of what is called "discretion,"
which does not arrive with most of us
before 25 Gf then), the youth, in judg-
ment and sense, is really not much su-
perior to what he was at from seven to

An E0ec,1ye Tr1m.s,r.

The stitching in of large cords, al
most as big around as-one's little fin
ger, is an odd but smart style intro
duccd of late. There are cloth gowns
with skirts corded in this style almost
to the knee, and the cords are run
across the tops Of bodices to form yoke
effects and around the tops of sleeves.
A black silk tailor gown was trimmed
in this way, with not sign of rufae
or plait. There was such an air of quiet
elegance about this gown that one
found 1t easy to forgive the show Of
pride on the part of the owner a. she

vided that in case the State shall
cease to use the land Tor experiment

A Spanish View.

The Correa. Espanol, the organ of
the Spanish Colony, published at the
City of Mexico, takes the following
view Of the results OF the Spanish
war:
Civilization disappeared from
Cuba with the disappearance of the
Spanish flag. No spectacle could be
more repulaive. The American sol.
diers have converted the beautiful
park into camp. There they eat
and drink, and wallow freely like
hogs on summer day.
ooh what sad page to the history
OF the human rHce is the Unit ed
Statse writing in Cuba and the
Philippines. What a step backw ar
in the path Of civilization has been
taken Ivy North America in letting
loose ita cynical and immoral SOL
dier on these unhappy countries"
