SHORT SERMON ON SUBJECT that
GETS TOO LITTLE ATTENTION
Those preCOCiOuS Young LaSSieS
Who Fall From Grace Largely
Through Mistaken Kindness of
Fond Parents. Worth the Reading
by Young and Old.

In every town there are lot OF foolish
girls, usually in their teens, who know
more than their mothers and c0nse.
quently ignore maternal advice and fout
the opinions of all their elders as being
old fogyish and altogether unworthy OF
their serious consideration.
These silly little creatures bring the
lines OF age which worry and uneasiness
make upon the faces of their parents.
Mothers and fathers become gray through
constant care for their welfare, and in
the end many loving hearts are broken
through the thoughtessness and way.
wardness Of these "smart alec" girls.
In the beginning these girls are seldom
actuated by motives of evil. They parade
the streets when they should be at home
engaged with their books, or in assisting
with the household tasks. They get
their foolish little heads full OF crazy
notions about the boys, the glare and
glitter OF what they conceive to be life,
and they scorn the simple, homely affairs
which make for their contentment and
happiness. They have no time to devote
to the study OF domestic affairs. They
may learn the mysteries Of fudge and
layer cakes, but bread. making is too
lowly an art to claim their attention
They waste their time in reading trashy
novels, some of which are vicious, others
merely silly, maudlin love stories. They
cram their foolish little heads full OF use.
less, injurious thoughts, and loaf while
their mothers wash the dishes. They do
no good in school, for they neglect their
studies to talk with cheap boys who are
much worse than they. They overdress
and become pert and brazen. They lose
the best instincts with which they are
endowed, and never think seriously of
the high and lofty things of life. They
trifle away their prospects OF worthy
womanhood and play tag with all the
dangers which beset the path OF girlhood.
Sometimes they are saved from them.
selves. and. realizing their folly, in time
become useful members of society, en-
petent, worthy business women, worthy
wives and mothers; but far too often
they miss the goal and never reach the
estate of true womanhood. They make
business for the divorce courts, or be-
come vampire.wives who prey upon their
husbands, Il burden to society and a
detriment to all influences that tend to.
ward home making. Far too many OF
them take the worse path, the path that
takes hold on hell, and those who go
that way may never return and must
pursue the road of lost women, the most
hopelessly lost of all Gods creatures.
Right here in Walla Walla there are
many OF these "gadabout" girls. There
is still hone for most of them and it is
the duty of their parents and friends to
intervene to save them. They should be
shown the hollowness and mockery of
their follies and the dangers to which
they eventually lead. Help the silly
girls before help comes too late. 1t is a
part of good citizenship which none can
shirk and expect to look conscience in
the face.-Walla Walla Union.

A COMMON HoTBED.

ed as early as January, or they may
be delayed until in March.
There are various methods of con-
struction, from the excavation or pit,
two or more feet in depth, walled up
with brick or planks, to the simple box
set above ground and tilted ON one
side for the slant to the sash.
Where hotbed frames are set on top
of pile of fermenting manure the ma
nure should extend beyond the edges
of the frame, otherwise the frame may
become too cold about the outside and
the plants suffer. 1t is generally pref

of an inch or two of any coarse ma.

the amount of manure. Hotbeds in
tended to hold for two months should
have about two feet of manure as a
rule. The manure should be put into

point about this particular implement

equally great.

A Union of Preachers.

CIergymen are in the poorest paid
profession in the world. so far as
pecuniary rewards go, and we have
often wondered why some of the
more enterprising of their number
did not form an association with the
avowed purpose of wTinging more OF
the '-sinews" that are aS necessary
in the ministerial as in any other
life, from the people who like to
have their spiritual needs attended
to and who would feel disconsolate
without any churches at all.
The fear of being considered mer-
cenary has, no doubt, prevented q
great many pastors OF churches from
demanding that they be paid salaries
in some way commensurate with their
work and thought The old idea
that the religious teacher should take
no thought for the morrow is hard
to eradicate.
But a beginning has been made: a
light has begun to dawn, and in our
most Eastern State. In the Minis
terial Union OF the eastern Maine
conference of the Methodist Church,
formed the other day. is the nucleus
of what may become a great move
ment embracing the entire country
with its beneficent arms. One of the
chief purposes of the union is TO
impress upon the missionary board
at its next annual meeting the ap-
palling meagerness of the salaries
of its members and the necessity of
adding to them sums that will make
life worth living.
What can be thought of the exist
ence of a clergyman who receives, as
a number in the new union do, an
average of but so cents a day? Is
that the way a servant of God should
be equipped to carry on his work ?
The average salary of the thirty-nine
men Of the conference is but S526.67.
The Methodist Church and most OF
the other churches ought to awake
TO the fact that this is an age of
increasingly better return for brain
labor in all the other professions
save that Of the ministry. The mig
gardly recompense given to the pull
pit is keeping young men of the best
minds and highest qualities of lead
ershiD away from the divinity
schools. No boy cares to look for
ward to a life of practical poverty.
especially when he realizes that his
intellect is to be his only support
and that 1t may win him rich prizes
in other professions. In this is the
true secret of the dearth of able
young ministers. The old-fashioned
"calP' to life of piety and penury
has almost vanished from the earth
