that a special series Of "Talks to
Parents on the Training of Children"
by William ]. Shearer, A NJ, Phi. D.,
Superintendent Of Schools of Eliza
beth, N. j., will begin next Sun
day.
Very frequently attention is called
to the fact that upon the children Of
the present will depend not only the
prosperity, but also the very life Of
the nation. How seldom is empha-
sized the truth that the future happi-
ness Of parents and children gener-
ally depends upon the character Of
the training the children receive.

tide tfs bachelor over one OF the keenest
embarrassments of her position.
II she cares to follow out rules laid
down by the smart set about leaving the
drawing-room and entering the dining
room, she must be more than careful to
manage It cleverly or else she may nnd
that she has unintentionally thrown q
wet blanket where she intended to scat

easy to laughinely request friend to
play host and then skillfully lead the lit
tie procession with any guest that
chances to he nearest her. Naturally the
''host" comes last and then all are seated
as soon as the hostess takes her place.
Name cards are a jolly and pretty
way to seat guests, apd when the names
are written plainly upon them avoid those
little delays and breaks that are 80 un-
pleasant, but that seem so unavoidable at
times.

will never be popular. 1t is one thing to
be well bred and stiff and another to be
well bred and cordial, and in this respect
the bachelor is well qualified Early in
her industrious life she learns that arms
length cordiality is by far the. hest. With
the score of folks, blunt. rushing. scurry-
ing workers frank, sincere manners never
fail TO be appreciated and so she works
on the plan of winning respect by ability,
friendship by personal worth and admira-
ton by simplicity and sweetness.
One of the very best things in Miss
Bachelors life is that money counts but
very little. And isn't 1t lucky for her
that it doesn't?
When she invites guests to dine with
her. il she be wise, she will study the
simple. the unaffected and let gorgeous
ness take care of itself. There is no rea-
son for her spending many pennies on
decorations and she would be more than
foolish TO be much out of pocket for SER
wants hire. and when It comes to squan-
deTing a fortune on singers, musicians
and what nots as a means OF entertain
ment she has reached the very pinnacle
of folly If her friends are too base to
enjoy a jolly little dinner and a merry
evening afterwsrd they had far better
stay at home. AT least they aren't worth
fussing and feathering over.
But one thing is certain. IL Miss Bach

course. If she fancies a low cut evening
frock it is perfectly PROPER but at times
it is apt to look trile far fetched. A
simple gown, but such as the wife OF the
millionaire next door might covet, is far
prettier. and 10 and behold she is pre-
pared to receive dainty frocked as the
finest lady in the land.

l walked in the woodland meadows.
Where sweet thrushes sing;
And I found on bed OF roses,
A bird with a broken wing.
| healed the wound; and each morning
1t sang its old sweet strain,
But the bird with the broken pinlon
Never scared as high again.
I found a youth liie-broken
BY SIMS seductive art;
And touched with Christ-like pity
took him to my heart.
He lived with a noble purpose,
And struggled not in vain;
But the soul with broken pinion
Never scars so high again.
But the bird with broken pinion
Kept another from the snare,
And the life that sin had stricken
Raised another from despair.
Each loss had its compensation:
There were healings for each pain;
But the bird with a broken pinion.
Never scars as high again
