this devotion of a son to her. And
l never yet knew a boy to ''turn
out" badly who began by falling
in love with his mother.
Any man may fall in love with
a fresh girl, and the man who Is
gallent with the girl may cruelty
neglect the worn and weary wife,
But the boy who is a lover of his
mother in her middle age is a true
knight who will love his wife as
much in the sereleaved autumn as
he did in the daisied springtime.
A NEW YEAR AND BETTER THINGS.
The old year glided away so
smoothly, day succeeding day,
month following month, with no
abrupt endings that we hardly
noted the passage of the hours.
Winter melted into spring, spring
fingered awhile with her birds and
flowers, then warmed into sum-
mer. Summer fruits ripened and
and dropped into autumn's lap,
and autumn amid a shower of fall
ing leaves moved on towards win
ter again. The old year ends
promptly at the midnight hour and
goes out in the solemn darkness
and again the circle is complete.
If the old year had it's hours of
bitter sorrow it had its times of
holy Joy. Many of the dear old
friends live only in memory but
we have hosts of new ones. The
true hearted meet the now year
with a hope and a prayer that in
it's day they may "rise on step
ping stones of their dead selves to
higher things" The housewife
and mother are among the many
who desire to attain greater excel
lence. With her it may mean a
desire to be self for-getful and to
observe to a letter the principles
in the motto "keep sweet" or it
may be an effort to give up her
mind to work that is unpleasant
OF disliked. Or it may mean a
stronger effort to systematic her
work; to do it better with less la
Dor or perform it in a orderly fash
ion, where before she had done it
in a slipshod or desultory way.
If the motto skeep sweet" was
lived up to in the new year would
not our little world of home be the
better for it? Even if it's influence
reached no further would it not be
worth the while2 To "keep sweet
one must possess a happy uncon-
seriousness of self and enthusiasm
about the little things that fill the
hours.of every day and an alb
scence of malice and envy. One
must have a bright outlook ON life
and a courageous heart. Such an
outlookland such a heart are in
valuable to the housewife. They
cheer herself and those under her
influence. "The hand that moves
the world" surely should pulse
with high courage that comes from
a brave true heart.

AMI BOYS,

o., all the love affairs in the
world, none can surpass the true
love of a big boy for his mother.
It is pure and noble, honorable in

mean a love which makes q boy
gallant and courteous to his moth
er, saying to everybody plainly
that he is fairly in love with her.

He who knows how to enjoy and
not endure, is ill fitted to 60 down
the stream of life through such a
world as this.
We say to u friends, one and
all, cultivate the home virtues, the
household beauties of existance.
Endeavor to make the little circle
of domestic life a cheerful, a kind
ly and a happy one. Whatever
may go wrong in the world of
business and trade, however ardu-
Gus may be the struggle for fame
or fortune, let nothing maj the
purity of reciprocal love, or throw
into its harmonious existence the
apple of discord.
The mother who radiates peace
radiates strength also. The rest
lessness, the noise, the rush of the
life of today, make it all the more
necessary to maintain within the
home IN atmosphere of serenity
and sweetness so that, the thres-
hold once crossed, the outside
noise and clatter and strife are
left securely behind, this is, per-
haps, an old fashioned conception
of home. Many woman now-a-
days want to turn the home into
the street, so to speak, and make
''the worlds work" everything
and the home nothing. But a
restful home, once experienced, is
a Joy above the promises of pro-
gress to disturb; and a restful-
and intelligent-woman alone can
make it.

THE ESKIMO SMOKER.
He Dearly LnveS Tobacco and Not "a
Mite of IL L. Wasted.

'No man is foudcr Of tobacco than an
Eskimo, said an arctic traveller. The
Eskimo depends for his tobacco solely
on the white man. For Il pound Of it
he would sell his Oldest son.
1T is odd to see an Eskimo smoke
He chops his tobacco fine and mixes it
with chopped willow twigs so as to
make II go further. Then he cleans out
with a picker of bone the small stone
bowl of his pipe and then he plucks 4
lock of hair from his dcerSllin suit and
rams it down in the bottom of the pipe
bowl so as 20 prevent any of the finely
chopped tobacco from escaping into the
stem.
Finally he lights the pipe and smokes
It in swift series of long. strong puffs
so that there may be no waste. Each
puff IS inhaled deep down into the
lungs, and the first pulr's smoke Is still
streaming from the mostrils long after
another puff has been started. There
must be, yOu see, no waste. There
must be none of that vain combustion
Of tobacco without benefit to the sQok-
er which goes on continually among us
often the most experienced Eskimo
will smoke so hard and fast that tears
will stream from his eyes. he will cough
violently, and sometimes vertigo and
nausea will seize him"-New York

PEFYS AS A PLAYGOER.
The Time When Women First Ap-
peared on the English Stage.

In the methods Of producing plays
pepys period of playgoing was coeval
with many most important innovations
which seriously affected the presenta-
ton of Shakespeare on the stage. The
rhiof was the substitution Of women
for boys IN female roles During the
first few months Of Pepys' theatrical
experience boys We're still taking the
wom.u's parts. That the practice sur
yivod in the first days Of Charles H. s
rciga we know from the well worn an
ecdOto that when the king sent behind
the scenes to inquire why the play Of
Hamlet" which he had come to see,
was so late IN commencing he was an
SWcrcd that the queen was not Yet
shaved But IN the opening month Of
1861 within five months Of his first
visit to a thcater, the reign Of the boys
ended. On Jan. 3 Of that year Pepys
writes that he first saw women come
upon the stage" Next night he makes
entry Of a boys performance of a wo-
mans part. and that is the final record
OF boys masqueradlng as women in
the English theater | believe the prac-
tlce now survives nowhere except in
Japan. This mode of representation
has always been Il great puzzle to stu
dents of Elizabethan drama 1t is
difficult to imagine what boys in
Shakespcarc's day. if they were any
thing like boys Of our own day, made
Of such parts as Lady Macbeth or
Cleopatra Before. however, Pepys
saw Shakespca-e's work on the stage
the usurpation of the boys was over.
1t was after the Restoration, too, that
scenery, rich costume and scenic ma
chluery became to Pepys' delight, reg
ular features Of the theater. When
the diarist saw Hamlet done with
scenes" for The first time he was most
favorably impressed. Musical accom-
paniment was known TO prerestora
ton days, but the orchestra was now
for the first time placed on the floor OF
the house IN front Of the stage Instead
Of in side gallery. The musical ac
compartment of plays developed very
RAPIDLY, and the methods Of opera were
applied to many of Shakespeare
pieces. notably to The Tempest anC
Macbeth" From "Pepys and Shake
speare." by Sidney Lee, in Fortnighty

THE CODE OF HONOR.
DueIIng az Ii Was In France In the
Time of RicheIieu.

The passion for dueling, which had
cost France, it was said, between
1000 and 5000 lives during the twenty
years Of Henry Tvs reign, was at Its
height when his son came to the
throne. The council of Trent in 154s
had soJamnly condemned the practice
Of single combat. impartially includ
ing principals. seconds and spectators
in its penalty Of accommodation. In
1902 an cdict of Henry pronounced the
"damnahIc custom of dueling intro
duced by the corruption of the cen.
tury" to be the cause of so many plte-
ouS accidents, TO the extreme regret
ana GiSpirasure of the king and to the
irrcparabIe damage of the state, +'thai
we should count ourselves unworthy
to hold the scepter If we delayed tc
rcpress the enormlty of this crime"
y whole series of edicts followed tc
the same effect, but it was easier to
make cdicts than to enforce them
Degradation, Imprisonment, confsca-
ton Of property, loss Of civil rights
and death were the penalties attached
