EDUCATIONAL
VALUE OF HABIT.

There is no subject more import
art than of habits. for character II
but another name for habit. 1t is
that condition of the mind or body
which Is manifested in the tendency
to unconscious repetition of acts or
states. for habits are not formed by
mere resolution or purpose, not by a
single effort or by series of ftful
efforts, but by repeated and coutlnu-
Gus ac ivity. Every act of the soul
leaves us an enduring result, an in
creased power TO act aud a tendency
To act again ia like manner, and
every repetition of an act Increases
this power and tendency. And when
this resulting tendency becomes SO
strong that an act Is repeated withGIt
conscious voluntary effort, the rssG't
is called habit
Horace Mann said, "'fabit Is d
cable. We weave a thread for 1t
each day, and it becomes so strong

the truth of the situation from the
poor woman about week ago. 1t then
developed that this suffering unfortu-
nate is the mother of the Honey Boy
child whom the stranger brought to
St. Vincent's on New Years Day.
The truth was not discovered until
after Mrs. Rogers, a lady of evident
refinement and good address. had ap.
piled to the Sisters of St. Vincents for
a charge. Mrs. Rogers request was
not an unushual one. Children who.
ike Honey Boy" are without parent
age. and without home, are often given
out to well recommended people who
are not so fortunate as to be blessed
with childhood Although this lady
had 10 particular choice the little rosk-

at once. His appearance of health and
sood cheer appealed strongly to Mrs.
Rogers and she pursuaded the Sisters
to let her take charge of the boy and
TO raise him as an adopted son.
With the understanding that the
child would always be in the custody
of the asylum and that Mrs. Rogers
would surrender it at an any time
that the parents would present the
proper claims, if at all, Mrs. Rogers
was given custody of the five-year-oId
youngster. He took kindly to his new
mother and she left. promising to
abide by the regulations Of the asylum.
When the Italian woman was dis.
charged from the Charity Hospital a
week ago she discovered the loss of
her boy. The other TWO children were
found i'm custody of friends. Heart
broken, she appealed to Sister Agnes
and that good woman got in touch
with the Sister of st. Vincent's. The
holhtf went there something more
than week ago. Mrs. Rogers was To-
Gated in Chicago, and when the police
were appealed to it was agreed to al
low Detective Scheffler to go after the
child. The dispatch from Chicago, an
aouncing thar he had left with his in
FAINT charge. tells of the successful ter
of the visit.
