Through a confession ON the part of a
Hammond 'coEe" fiend who claims that
he has reformed, the Times now has q
list of 10 Hammond young men who
are the victims of the cocaine habit and
several of them are the sons of prom
inent people In this city.
The young men are known to each
other and frequently get together to
sl,HR dendly drug which has already
cnEneshed at least two Of them so that
there IS NO hope of ever curing them OF
the habit. Others may be snyed ~
heroic measures are adopted but those
already the victims are inducing
their friends to try the dope with re-
suits that are terrible to contemplate.
THEIR FRIENDS ARE VICTIMS.
The most terrible feature of the
whole situation is the fact that two of
the young men, apparently with a
MephistO's delight in their fiendfsh
work, are trying to spread the habit
among many of their friends as pos-
sibIe.
Since the recent expose of the Times

manages to dispose of an enorm0ua

FOURTEEN MISTAKES

An English paper gives a list of what it terms "the fourteen mistakes of life. While there are undoubtedly other mistakes than those mentioned, the list is fairly comprehensive one.
 It is great mistake to set up your own standard of right and wrong and judge people accordingly, to measure the enjoyment of others by our own, to expect uniformity of opinion in this world, to look for judgment and cx perience in youth, to endeavOr to mold all dispositions alike, to look for per lection in our own actions, to worry ourselves and others with what cannot be remedied, nor to yield in immaterial nor to alleviate all that needs alleviation as far as lies in our power, nor to make allowances for the infirmi. ties of others, to consider everything that We cannot perform. to belive only what our finite minds can grasp, to expect to be able to under stand everything.
 And the last and greatest mistake of all is to live for time alone, when any moment may launch Us into eternity.

EUROPE NEEDS AMERICAN IDEAS
 OF MONEY
Mrs. Astor Declares Her Belief in Her
 Country

l believe in q republic, says Mrs. As tor in the November Delineator, and believe in republic in which money has great deal to say, as in ours.
 Money represents with us energy and character; it is acquired by brains and untiring effort; it is kept intact only by the same means. It were well if Europe were imbued more with the American ideas of money power-I do not say Iideals-that is another thing. But American ideas about developing the natural resources of the country and their common sense ntoions about work would bring about great things in Flu. rope. Best of all, there is the American idea demonstrated about us every day. that each man can bring happiness and comfort to himself and to those he loves if he will only set about it, and that education, books, pictures, travel, arc all within his reach
 l can speak with authority about our young people. l have always kept in close touch with them. They are of a new age and often have ideas different from my own old, conservative ones. And they are full of health and abund- ant spirits, embodiments of the new age of athletic developments and out-of door sport. It is perhaps true that they ire quently go into eXcesses in amusement, but they are not degenerate and they are not vicious Our young men enter seriousy upon the business of taking care of their large, financial interests, and they often take up an individual business or profession in addition. go. ing in for healthy sports only as well, earned diversion.
 Our young women are easily trained in domestic matters and taught to ap- preciate their responsibility toward the poor. There are no such barriers he. tween the very rich and the very poor as some newspapers would have the world believe. All of my friends do great deal for the poor, and their daugh- ters are brought up from infancy to look upon their charity work as an important part of their lives. When our girls marry, they take up the management of establishments in town and country, they rear large families of children and personally supervise their education at home during the critical early years. They are in love with their husbands and devoted to their interests,
 Yes, have heard that our young wo. men smoke and drink and do other ter. rible things. I know a great many of them and know them we'll; I hav& known them since they were born, .and l am quite sure there is not one in my circle who is Q cigarette fend or who drinks to excess,

SHOULD A MAN CoNFIDE HIS
 BUSINESS TO HIS wIFE7

Whether man confdes his business to his wife depends entirely upon the wife, says Mabel Potter Daggett, in the October Delineator.
 There are women who are capable of sharing responsibilities and wise in discharging them. There are other wom en-dear doll women--who need to have all the difficulties of existence simplified, all the little problems of life smoothed out and solved for them by another. When they are made that kind, they are only delightfully."- decora. tive bits in the scheme of life. So it sometimes happens that when man has married girl because of the sunshine glint in her hair, or the shadowy depths in her eyes, he has not always acquired herewith the clear brain and the steady hand that may help at the helm of his business affairs, and he cannot now ex- pect his wife to share very much the burden of his responsibilities.
 But there are other marriages more than beauty deep. Sometimes they are even those rare ideal unions that are soul deep They happen semioccasion- ally when love comes to man and a woman who are mentally and socially and every way equals. Then it is the woman s right to know and the man B right to share with her every pulse. beat of eXistence-even to the annoying de- tails of his daily business perplexities. Always she can help him endure them. Sometimes she may help him to solve them. Wherever there is man 's achievement there is always in the back ground feminine inspiration and fem mine sympathy that is the complement of his strength. Somewhere there must always be woman to whom he can go and say, "I m tired, dear v; and when she has answered, ""rell me all about it,n difficulties that have been as mountains begin to fade away like mist For every man who succeeds, this woman exists. Think about it, oh, little wife, as you turn the new gold band on your finger. Hadn I this wom- an better be you! Inevitably, when she is not. she must be the other woman.
