I would say that you should ask your
self, Am I competent to fill the place

If / feel that / am not, it is nv duty

illness of a man will not allow him to
to strive on account of failure.
Failure strengthens the energy that
is in the true man or woman.
A man never turns to the wine
glass or dram shop to drown his trou-
bic, for if is a man he is well aware
that this weakens energy and blunts
perception. A shadow of a man con-
tradicted this assertion; I told him

One Cause of Unhappy Marriages

Dear Aunt Jennie Can you tell
me what has become of all those that
we're writing for our Chat column?
I enjoyed reading their letters,
whether I agreed with them or not.
Sometimes to disagree with people
draws them out, and we get some
thing rich. Tennessee Boy walked up
the young people when he said the
girls had rather have a fast young
man han a sober, steady one. This
is easy to explain, but the explana-
ton would not look well on paper.
One thing about the good young man
is, he does not like to initiate the
frog; he had rather see into what he
is leaping before making this impor-
tant yet solemn leap. The fashion of
leaping in the dark and finding, when
the light is turned on, that the only
chance for happiness is to leap back
wards marriage and divorce) is too
common in this age.
There is not forethought enough

Dear Aunt Jennie:-I will drop
in a few minutes to chat awhile, for
I do like your corner very much. If
I do not write often, it is not for lack
of appreciation of the kindness of
The Progressive Farmer.
1t has been a busy time for most
people on the farm. The crops have
to be attended to. The girls and
boys that expect to attend school
must be made ready; and they ought
to make the best of their opportuni=
ty, for they will o have to take
up life's burdens. There may be
some that will not have as many bur
dens as others, but all will have some.
Everyone should put on the whole
armor of life and be ready to battle
bravely.
I think there have been some very
good letters in "Social Chat" Ny
name was called some time ago, but
L could not respond at once, but L
hope this will be all right. The let
tiers from the city Chatterers and
those from the country are both read
with pleasure. I enjoy living in the
country, for it is where Natures best
things come from. We had plenty
of peaches this summer. We have
had grapes ever since July, and will
have some until frost.
I will give a recipe for killing
flies; it is simple: Take yolk of one
egg; one spoonful of ground black
pepper and two spoonfuls of clabber
or butter milk. I hope all who test
it will report results.

From one of our farm exchanges
we copy the following:
"There is an old story about the
farmer and his wife who were not
satisfied with their home and decided
to put their farm in the hands of an
agent for sale. Soon thereafter they
read of a beautiful place which they
decided would exactly suit them.
They called on the agent, only to
find that it was their own farm they
had so much admired, and as the
agent had stated the facts they at
once withdrew it from the market.
They had overlooked the good things
around them until a stranger had
pointed them out. This is a very
common experience. We usually
think the other fellow has an easier
time or a better business because we
don't know all about his troubles or
disadvantages, and because we don't
fully appreciate our own good
things"

guard is the long-exerted, irresistible
influence of his childhood years when
his father as comrade and friend in
stilled into his soul the belief that
truth, honor and decency are the
finest attributes of man. "He may
falter and he may do some foolish
things; but if he is sound at heart,
and if that has been done for him
which it is in a fathers power to do,
then he will in the end come out un-
scathed in his completed manhood"

school days can greatly aid education
by getting the children interested,
for soon they will be men, and the
country, and political affairs, as well
as those of the church, will be upon
them.
I wish those of the Chatterers who
have children or brothers and sisters
going to school would try this plan,
and let us hear from them as to what
success they have.

For Parents of school.children.

Dear Aunt Jennie:-I wish to tell
you and the Chatterers what a pleas
ant, and / think, profitable time we
are having in our home since the lit
tie boys have started to school. /
speak of the little boys because there
are only three little children in our
home, and they are boys. There are
more of US, but we have already fin
ished our school days.
The night after the first day of
school the three little boys we're all
speaking of what had happened that
day. l joined in their conversation,
and soon asked what we're their les
sons for the next day. Each one was
eager to show.
I looked at each lesson, and spoke
well of them, aund then told the little
boys to learn each lesson and recite
to me. This they did. When we
were through it was bed time. The
next night l started by asking what
they did that day, and was highly
pleased to know that each one of the
boys was standing at the head of his
classes. We quit our conversation
and they went to work on their les
sons for the next day, and rel soon
ready to recite to me.
We have been keeping this up ever
since the first night. In it [ find
pleasure. The teacher has found time
to write a note of gratitude for such
good lessons. Excuse me, but here
is a sentence from her note: "It is
a pleasure for me to have them In
school; they are always on time, and
always know their lessons"
It seems that these little boys have
taken greater interest in their school
than ever before, and I believe that
it is due to the home people mani

flowers and grasses in the decoration
of the home, and remarks by way of
comment:

more young people become discour-
aged and Disguised and leave home
because of it's ugliness and the many
inconvenience under which they and
their mother accomplish their daily
tasks, than for a dislike for the labor
itself. Surrounded by those who love
them best, and with the home made
comfortable and attractive, as it may
easily be with little or no expense, it
is difficult to draw them away-ex-
cept a companion who offers them a

Aunt Jennie's Letter.

hoFO SoON "
week.
Search Words letter has caused
me many serious thoughts as to the
duty of parents toward their children
and their training, not only for
proper r~ecitations in school, but for
life when school-days r over. 1t
is we'll to feel an interest in their les
sons. but their general department
should elicit more persistent watch
care. Teach a child to love his books,
and he will learn to study. Let him
learn to love his cigarette and fail
to tell him the harmful effects pro-
duced by it, and he will smoke. Let
him win his first bet, and see if you
can hold him. You would not let
your colt run away once and risk his
good behavior thereafter. Teach
your children from the first the glory
of s~elf-control, and remember that
it is better to teach them to rule their
spirits than to teach them to con
quer cities.
I know that it is the custom to
leave the care of children in their
tenderest years to the mother. She
is always present to watch, warn,
amuse and enjoy their varied child
hood experiences, to exult in their
success and bewail their failures-in
fact, to be again a child with her
children. She gains an influence and
establishes an intimacy that would
be utterly unattainable in after
years when the impressionable period
has passed. Do all fathers realize
this fact, or are they cheating them
selves by not grasping it? "Otterly
unattainable; " why? Simply because
you have shirked the undertaking,
and do not know your boy. He is
simply a boy, you say. Well, yes,
and no. He is your boy, and do you
remember your own characteristics?
Help your boy to be a man. Show
him that you love him and extend
your sturdy hand to help him across
the slough of despond and tempta-
ton. Your experiences in life's bat
tie will help you to help him. A man
has been a boy; a woman does not,
cannot know her son as his father
should. There comes a time in every
boys life when he realizes that his
mother is only a and that she
cannot know just how he thinks of
things. Then it is that the fathers
aid is most helpful, but if he has not
learned his A B Cs how can he read?
And if he has failed to bride the
colt does he expect to saddle the
horse or hitch him to a buggy and
drive him at will? If he does, he is
not wise; for unless he has had some
forethought his afterthought will
not profit him much in the manage
ment of his horse or boy. When that
boy goes out into the world, be must
stand alone. There are no onven
tionalites to hold him back; he is a
man and believes that men may do
