The HerOineS of Home.

Some eighty years ago a certain Montyon left
to the Academic Franchise a sum of money to be
given, in small prizes to the best examples of 'vr
tue" of the year In awarding these prizes, the
academys committees have with great good sense
shown partiality to virtues simple and chronic
rather than to her spasmodc and dramatic flights.
In Paul Bourgeois report for this year found
numerous cases, of which this is type:
Jeanne Chalk eldest of six children, mother in
sane, father chronically ILL., Jeanne, with no money
but her wages at a pasteboard-box factory, directs
fully maintains the family of eight which thus sub
sists, morally as we'll materially by the sole force
of her valiant will In some of these French cases
charity to outsiders is added to the inner family
burden; or helpless relatives, young old, are
adopted, if the strength inexhaustible and
ample for every appeal Details are too long to
quote here but human nature responding to the call
of duty, appears nowhere sublmer than in the per-
son of these humble heroines of family life.
1t was an old philosopher who declared that wom-
en- excel men in the power of keeping up sustained
moral excitement as witness the cases of illness
nursed by wife or mother. Where can one find bet
ter examples Of sustained endurance than in those
thousands of poor homes where the woman sue
cessfully holds the family together, doing all the
work. supporting the family, and keeping the home
associations sweet
The true heroine is indeed the heroine of the
home aspiring to no dramatic or exciting flights
of heroism, conscious only of doing her best and
blessing to home community and society

The Right Kind of a Boy.

A good boy is the natural product of good home,
and all the efforts of philanthropy to make boys bet
are consciously imperfect substitutes for the nat
ural influences of healthy minded home. The great
and over-shadowing peril of boys life is not, as
many suppose, his bad companions or his bad looks,
his habits; it is the peril of homelessness. I do
not mean merely homelessness which may exist even
in luxurious houses-the isolation of the boys soul,
the lack of any to listen to him. the loss of root
to hold him to his place and make him grow. This
is what drives the boy into the of evil, makes
the streets his home and the gang his family else

story of the whose house was empty" and pre-

that boy cannot bear it is himself. He is by

In paper read before the Teachers Association
of Bingham County, Mrs A. " Scott, talented
lady of Idaho Falls, among other things made
the following pertinent deductions:
One thing which cheapens the profession is
professional teachers and unprofesSonal teaching.
People who not naturally fitted for such work
make it their occupation, and therefore do not do
it Justice.
To be a good teacher requires all the necessary
elements of success in other lines and sometimes
more.
The relations of the teacher to the community

Pensions For Mothers.

Professor Charles Zueb1n, of the University of

a pension system for mothers:
Every mother, whether rich or poor should be
