fered them, something just as enter
tanning and interesting as they would
find elsewhere.
| Boys of this age love to read books
of adventure and prowess, they fairly
revel in such stories, and If the par
ents do not provide something clean
and elevating, ten to one, the boys
will save up their money and buy
yellow-backed books of loathsome,
blood-curdling detective stories. They
will not read these at home, they are
too wise. Well do they know such
things would be quickly destroyed.
Consequently they will go elsewhere
to enjoy their book, possibly with
older and more experienced fellows.
Now fathers and mothers, would 1t
not be far better to read together
and discuss boks that are just as in
teresting as these and are not at all
harmful? For instance, some OF
Ayers or Henty's excellent books for
boys,
1t is the same with papers! VIII
You have your boys nightly visit the
usual loafing resorts, and read and
hear discussed the murders, scandals
and sui -ide, or shall they become alb
sorbed for whole evenings at time,
by the interesting things told in the
American Boy" or Success? 1t rests
with you, parents, choose We! Boys,
too, are interested in games and why
should they not be. 1t Is an innO-
cent, harmless amusement If enjoyed
within the protecting shelter Of
home. But mothers think what the
outcome may be. II from mere preju-
dice your boy is driven to learn and
enjoy these games mid curses, BIAS
phemy and yile-tongued SANDERS.
God pity the mothers, but many
poor boy has begun his downward
career, because Of lack Of sympathy
and interest in this respect, at home.
Mothers, fathers, do you ever give
moments thought as to how your
boys and girls shall spend their
evenings? Mothers, plan with your
children something that will be a
pleasure for fathers evening home
coming. They will enter heart and
soul into the arrangement. And
again, the father and children may
plan and execute some little surprise
on the patient, loving stay-at-home
mother. They will be amply reward
ed by the look of pleasure beaming
on her face. Mothers, be chummy
with your daughters, give her your
sympathy instead Of laughing at her
plumbers. Keep your hearts young
by entering into all her pleasures.
Let us have children spend their
evenings at home, whatever the cost.
A little precaution, little pains, a
little .forethought now, may save both
you and them years of anguish, suf-
fering and remorse. The most we
can do for the children will be but
little, when we consider what a
pleasure and comfort they are II
brought up in the fear and admin
ton of the Lord And parents we
will not be held guiltless If we fail
in caring for these the greatest gift
of God:

They are the treasures of hearts and
of households,

His sunlight, still sleeps in their
AZ tresses,
His glory still CLEANS in their eyes.

Gently passed through the house OF
representatives by Congressman
French, granting to the northern
Idaho insane asylum four sections OF
government land. 1t was the pur-
pose OF the asylum, should the land
be transferred, to place the tract un-

farm those inmates of the institution

fected, and who were sufficiently ra-
tional and physically capable Of doing

Heyburn's Objections.
Senator Hepburn takes the position
that 1t would be unfair to the resi-
dents Of that part Of the state to turn
at large number of insane persons.
II inmates of the asylum should be
put to work on the farm, he says they
would have every opportunity Of
breaking away, and once beyond the
limits Of the asylum grounds, he be-
lieves they would be a menace to the
community. He does not believe II
wise to bring about any such situa-
ton, and for that reason will not con-
sent to the passage Of the French bill.

PORTLAND POSTOFFICE CASHIER
INDICTED FOR THEFT

Embezzlement Of postoffice funds
to the amount of s409O.7S is charged
against Charles A. Straus, fomer fl
nancial clerk and cashier in the Port
land postoffice, in an indictment re-
turned by the Federal grand jury
yesterday. The misappropriatlon of
funds is alleged to have been COM
mitted by Straus between January,
1902, and June 1, 1908, when he
severed his connection with the gov
ernment service. Mr.. Straus is un-
der bonds to appear for trial when
the case is called in the United States
court, probably the latter part of next
month.
The government is protected
against loss by reason of the alleged
defalcatlon by a bond furnished by
Mr. Straus through the United States
Fidelity & Guaranty company, for
whom Hartman & Thompson, of this
city, are local agents. The misap-
preparation Of postal funds is alleged
by the government to have been made
by Straus between April l, 1906, and
April II, 1908. Mr.. Straus insists
that the apparent shortage in funds
handled by himself as an employe Of
the government is due to mistakes in
his reports to the postoffice depart
ment. He contends that the affairs
of the office were in unquestionable
shape when he formally relnqulshed
the position May 81, last.
