BACKBoNEIEss HUMANITY.
Wake Co.. N. G.

1t is the home indulgence of early
life that is responsible for so many
specimens of backboneless humanity.
There T many mothers of the in
indulgent kind, who have not in
their hearts to make their children
do anything that is unpleasant to
them.
The frequent "school headaches
r accepted seriously, and the les
sons are Stunned for that coveted
run in the garden, or that jolly play
in the house. IF music be unpleas-
ant for little miss, still in the grind
ing drUdgery of scales and lingering,
music is dropped because she has no
taste for it, and it is cruel to force
her inclinations. So with the broth
er's Latin and arithmetic, geography
and history.
The mother maintains the abnor-
mality of her children all through,
and makes that childish petulance
and childish dislike of initial drudg-
cry the measure of their mature re-
quirements. Nor can she correct
them when they do wrong. She
makes kindly excuses to them and
for them, and puts excuses into their
own mouths to save them the pain
of a frank confession and herself the
anguish of i~nf1icting a deserved pun
ishment.
She wishes, poor soul, to be all
that is sweet and good and loving to
her children, but she has not strength
of mind nor force of will enough to
make them feel that everlasting
truth of consequences and respon-
sibilities. She wants them to be
good without the need of training,
and to be happy without the draw
backs of sorrow for w~rpngdoing and
the bitterness of suffering in punish
ment.
She thinks if she makes them strong
and healthy and happy they will
necessarily be good, and she does not
see that all the while she is weaken
ing their moral fiber and making
them self-indulgent, unable to resist
the pains and m~isfortunes of life,
and sure to become in the end a
member of that purposeless species
known as backboneless humanity

AN IMPORTANT QUESTION.

Mr.. Glenn, the superintendent of

Gently explained the nature of the
X-ray to a gathering of colored chill
dren. After the meeingt was over a
colored youth called him aside and
wanted to know if he was in earnest
about the machine. Mr.. Glenn as
sured him that he was.
"Boss, I wants ter ak you eff er
niger ct chicken kin you lookin him
an see chicken?"
"Why, yes, Epraim," said Mr..
Glenn.
"Well, boss, I wants ter ak yer
one mo- question. Kin you look in

come from?''

MORMON MARRIAGE CEREMONY.

Known Among MOrmons as the Reformation,
Mrs. j. K. Hudson tells how a
Mormon marries GA Third Wife,, -
in a story by that title in the New
Lippincott for January:
Ranged along the wall in a solemn
row sat the brother of the bride
groom, his mother, his daughter,
and the mother of the bride. Claris-
SEES mother was but the ghost of
herself of yesterday; then strong
and erect and content now tremb-
ling in her chair as if she would
again fall to the floor, her appealing
eyes UNDECIDED, for her daughter had
been placed so that she could not see
her mother.
Almost as quickly as the company
was seated-no time being permitted
for scenes that we're disliked by the
the head of the church-the voice
of Brigham Young rang out loud
and confident. Addressing the first
wife he said care you willing to
give this woman to your husband to
be his lawful wife for time and for
all eternity? If you are you will
signify it by placing her right hand
within the left hand of your hus-
band"
The broken, wretched wife reached
across the altar, and lifting the deli
cate hand of the girl with her own
work-stiffened fingers laid it in the
broad, o~utstretched palm of her hus-
band. Thus was the plural marriage
c~onsecrated and the holy institution
of Christian wedlock desecrated-in
Christian America.
Long afterwards I knew that I had
witnessed one of the tragedies in
what was known among the Nor
mons as the Reformation, and
among the Gentiles as the Reign of
Terror.

the lives of children, often deter
mining the comfort and welfare of
the mother, child and others. So.
the discipline of the child should
have begun at least two years back
of the physicians stated time, and if
we are to believe in the cumulative
effects of heredity, back of the birth
of both parents as far as possible,
though of course this lady could have
no influence in the training back of
her own years of discretion and Sc
lection of friends and environment.
We as farmers and live stock
breeders, study these matters deeply
for the values to be secured, but ig-
more the natural laws laid down by
the Great Ruler of the universe in
our own families.

Prof. r. A. Fessenden of Ale
ehany. addressing the American As
ISOLATION for the Advancement OF
Science, says the earth must be at
least 500, 900, 900 years old.
He said that biologists used to
think that there was unlimited
time for evolution, but Lord Kelvin
showed that the time was not un-
limited. and must be somewhere ike
200. 600, 900 years. Later he has
brough the time down since life was
first possible on this planet to less
than SO, 600, 900 years.
Lord Kelvin's estimates are based
upon certain assumptions, the most
important being that the radiation
co-effcient from the earth has re-
NAMED constant. IF the radiation
c~oeficient was several times larger
than at present, the age of the earth
would would have to be increased
very considerably.
A rough estimate of all sources of
possible error had led him to the
conclusion that we are justified in
saying the age of the earth since life
was possible on it is not less than
500, O0O, 900 years, perhaps less, and
consequently Lord Kelvin is not jus
titled in his statement that life could
not have been originated on this
earth.-Ex.
