A nervous, irritable mother, often on
tho verge Of Mysteries, il unfit to care
for children it ruins child's DISPOSE
ton and reacts upon herself. ~ The,
trouble between children and their
mothers too often is due to the fact
that tho mother has some female weak
ness, and she is entirely nn1{t to bear
the strain upon her nerves that govern
ing children involves; it is impossible
for her to do any thing calmly.
The ills of women actlike q firebrand
upon the nerves, consequently nine
tenths of the nervous prostration, ner-
vous dependency. "the blues" sleep
lessness, and nervous irritability of
women arise from some arrangement
OF the female organism.
Do you experience fits of depression
with restlessness, alternating with
extreme irritability? Are your spirits
easily affected, SO that one minute you
laugh, and the next minute you feel
like crying?
Do you feel something like ball ris-
ing in your throat and threatening to
choke you; all the senses perverted,
morbidly sensitive to light and sound !;
pain in the ovaries, and especially
between the shoulders; bearing down
pains; nervous dyspepsia, and almost
continually cross and snappy?*
If so, your nerves are in shattered
condition, and you are threatened with
nervous prostration. .s>: K 1
Proof is monumental that nothing in
the world is better for nervous prostra-
ton than Lydia E. Pinkham's, Vege-
table Compound; thousands and thou
sands of women testify to this fact.

spect, as, for example, q grave look
if there is profanity In your presence,
will put an end to it.. am persuaded
that the habit of cigarette smoking,
which we all deplore IN boys, would
vanish from the face of the earth if
the girls would only show by look and
word that they disapproved it, and
would not have cigarette smokers num-
bered among their boy friends.
There are great many things which
boys and girls may do together In
the department of nature study this is
peculiarly true. Excursions to study
birds or find flowers, involving tramps
through the fields, or mountain climb
ing, are doubly pleasant if a party Of
young people go in company.
To add zest to such study every one
must he enthusiastic. There is no
room for the lad who is bored or the
girl who lags behind and takes little
interest. Girls are as able to endure
fatigue and take whatever comes in
the way Of hardship as boys, if they
are properly dressed for their expedi-
tons. Only silly girl sets out for a
mountain climb or a walk across coua-
try dressed in Organdie or lacvn, with
floating ribbons, with picture hat and
tight shoes. The girl VINO is good
comrade wears loose, easy fitting cos
tunes for out-of-doors, has no float
ing tags or ends, has cap or sailor
hat, and wears shoes with broad soles
and low heels properly adjusted to her
feet.
Tennis, basket ball and golf are
games that boys and girls may play,
with no odds on either side, but with
no end of fun. For the rougher games,
such as football and baseball girls are
content to assume the role Of specta-
tors. They know the points Of the
game, and their sympathy CT GERS the
players, while they are proue to wear
the colors of those whom they favor.
l wish l could make you see friend
ship as it looks to me. 1t is not a
mere pleasure OF the moment. It is
not enjoyment only. 1t is chance
to help somebody who needs help, a
chance to make this old world a
brighter place. We get from it~what
we give. If we are selfish and unwill-
ing to make a sacrifice, we shall never
be friends in the best sense.
Perhaps can illustrate what mean.
You have just seated yourself with a
book. that you have been trying 20
read. and for which you have had no
leisure You have reached the mo st
exciting part of the story. In comes
your brother with request that you
will mend a rip in his glove, or in
walks a neighbor who is rather dull
and stupid boy. 1t is test OF your
amiability and altruism, whether you
care more for your own pleasure, or
for the brother and the brothers
friend. These little things, mere trif1es
apparently. show character. Through
out life there are chances for thou
sand petty self-denials. Some of them
make the difference between beng
friendly and being selfish. Friendship
never thrives in the soil of selfishness.

Remember the Living.

Floating around, credited merely
to an exchange are the following sp-
propriate and beautiful thoughts:
People kiss their dead who new
er stoop to kiss their living; they
hover over open csskets with hys-
terical sobs but fail TO throw the
wealth Of affection about those who
are fighting the stern battles OF life
How unheedingly we permit the
opportunities for carrying sunshine
into the lives of those We love tc
pass by. A word of cheer TO q
struggling soul in life is worth more
than all the roses in Christendom
piled high on casket covers. The
dead cannot smell the fragrance oil
the flowers, but the living can ;
scatter them broadcast in their
pathway, therefore, and pluck out
the thorns. A cherry smile, and
an affec,ionaie look, will cause q
rift to break in the lowering clouds,
and permit the glorious sunshine to
gladden. the live. OF those we love.
