THE CURFEW LAW

Parents should keep their chill
dren in at night, after the sun goes
down. They learn more badness
running around the neighborhood
than you can cure; they learn to
steal, to commit depredations on
property; they learn to be inmor-
al; they learn to practice immoral
l.ablts; they learn to swear, to lie,
to cheat. The darkness is a cover
to them. They can do things and
not get caught. They insult good
citizens; they are the bell ringers
OF the neighborhood; they go in
gangs; their numbers make them
bold; they are not out for anything
that is good they ought to be home
i'll bed, or else at home reading and
studying. Let them play in the
daytime. They ought to have time
to play, to be sure. See that they
learn their lessons; teach them re-
spect and obedience to authority,
and don't let them run the streets
night They will sow the wind,
ind reap the whirlwind, if you do.

COMFORTING WORDS
Many a Florida Household Will Find
Them So

To have the pain and aches Of a
bad back removed; to be entirely free
from annoying, dangerous urinary dis
orders is enough to make any kidney
sufferer grateful. To tell how this
great change can be brought about
will prove comforting to hundreds of
florida readers.
A. Oerting, seaman. of 419 L. ST.,
Pensacola, Fla, tells how to do it. He
says: 'From experience with Doan's
Kidney Pills can strongly recommend
them to anyone in need of a good med
icine for the kidneys. Kidney COM
plant and backache caused me suf-
fering at intervals for years. The first
or second attack 1 did not mind, but
as time went by they grew worse and
at times laid me up. l could hardly
walk and it was a difficult matter to
straighten after STOPPING while the
kidney secretions were irregular and
unnatural. Doan's Kidney Pills cured
ME. From personal experience I know
that this remedy can be depended upon
to fulfill the representations made for
it."

MORE MONEY FOR
FIGHTING MEN


shorthanded of enlisted men. At
many of the army posts the compa-
MES are hardly more than skele-
tons. Several thousand more men
are needed to fill the commands

5000 more men at once and will
need 5000 others before the year

Cut into commission. Enlistments
have been slow for some time, for
various reasons, one of the chief
or them being the low pay as COM
pared with compensation to be had
in civil life.
However, if increased pay and
better allowances will have the eff
feet of bringing forward the need
ed men, recruiting should take on
a squirt pretty shortly, under the
terms of the new military supply
Bills. That for the army increases
the pay Of both officers and enlist
ed men, the latter being put on
the same footing with the enlisted
men of the navy, who have hereto
fore had a slight advance The
navy bill provides that officers of
that service shall be advanced to
the rate of pay of army officers of
the corresponding rank and have
similar allowances. Thus the rates
of compensation in the two services
will be upon practically the same
basis, for the first time, and in
both cases the pay will be the high
est ever authorized in time of
peace.
There will be no serious objec-
ton in any quarter for giving the
men more money for their services

study along lines that were I'M

A Matter of Habit.


Before New York dairymen's con-
vention Mrs Marshall, one of the pro-
prietors of a dairy farm, gave knock
at some of the dairy advice so freely
floating around at present: 'In every
movement looking to the reform or
betterment of degenerate conditions,
the existence of which has been per
fectly obvious to thinking people,
there arises class of 'just-discovered-
1t maniacs' who fairly froth at the
mouth in their zeal to Guido each other
in correcting the abuse. For a few
years the dairy has been the target
of surplus wrath. 1t has been special
lied, scrutiniZed, sterilized, pasteur-
iZed and paralyzed. Some of the lat
est items since the reformers have had
their fling are: There is nothing but
dirt in the dairy, and you keep ever
lasting at it. And you tell every
body Of your gymnastics to keep the
diaries sanitary, and you shout it from
the housetops, and you write it to the
dairy papers, and soon your labors
will be all done, for nobody will want
your milk or butter"

WHEN LOST IN THE WOODS.
How to Keep Your Bearings and Find
Wiy OFT


"What should you do If lost in the
woods?" Young foresters taking the
civil service examinations for govern
ment service used to find this question
a favorite. Later most of them have
had more than one occasion to put
their answers to Il practical test. One
Of the commonest experiences of peo-
pie who go to the woods is to stay
away from the trails and familiar
landmarks and lose their bearings,
says the Boston Transcript.
Every man who goes into the woods
should make up his mind that in case
he is lost he will observe few simple.
common sense rules of conduct. In the
first place. he should resolutely refuse
to be frightened. srhe immediate effect
Of the discovery that one is lost is
usually complete decentralization. The
victim falls into panic of fear and
wants to extricate himself immediate
ly. He runs about In different direc-
lions, helloing until what little sense
he had left is completely gone. Avoid
that. II you should miss your trail or
be In doubt as to your whereabouts,
the best course is first to sit down
where you are and think over matters.
1t is not a serious affair: be assured of
that. There are few regions In the
United States where man is not
within a days walk of some settle
ment.
If you have so lost the sense Of di-
rection that you cannot make up your
mind what course to take. 1t is usually
best to follow a stream. In a rough
country there is almost always flowing
water. Streams always lead to settle
ments. The way may be long and the
"going" tortuous, but stick to your
stream, and It will bring you out.
Keep an eye on the sun II 1t Is out
and get your directions from It, Study
the contours of the hills and noun
tatns, the appearance Of the trees and
Of the stream. Try to find something
familiar. Don't look for moss on the
not safe guide.
Don't throw away food or clothing
In order to travel faster. You will
probably need both.
Keep your confidence. When every
thing else is gone. hold ON to that. Get
ting lost In the woods is. after all, I'M
der certain restrictions a rare kind of
sport. There Is certainly excitement
enough about 1t to stir the most jaded,
with plenty Of opportunity for the ex-
ercise Of GOODNESS and common sense.

How to Eat Arioht.

Here are Horace Fletcher's rules for
eating, which are given to all patients
Of the Harvard Dental School dispen-
sary, says Worlds Work:
Eat only in response to an actual
appetite, which will be satisfied with
plain bread and butter
Chew all solid food until 1t is liquid
and practically swallows itself.
Sip and taste all liquids that have
taste, such as soup and lemonade. Wa
ter has no taste and can be swallowed
Immediately.
Never take food while angry or wor.
ried and only when calm. Waiting
for the mood In connection with the
appetite is a speedy cure for both an.
ger and worry.
Remember and practice these four
rules and your teeth and health will
be fine.

How TO Treat Kitchen Walls.

II tiles are out Of the question, oil
paint is the only available wall cover
ing for kitchen and should be finish
ed with a coat Of enamel, says the
ST. Louis Post-Dispatch. The kitchen
walls will require washing quite as
much and almost as frequently as the
door. White tiles make the finest pos
sibie covering not only because they
show dirt, but because they can be
easily cleaned. This requirement must
be met with any other substitute, and
this. to a considerable extent, Is given
in a good way by oil paint finished
with enamel.
