WOMAN'S
POINT OF VIEW.

The moral standard is low-I have said
that before and 1 have reasons for reg
peating It with greater emphasis. Great
stress is laid upon the term smart" and
we are losing the dividing line between
shrewdness and dishonesty. Boys are
urged TO smartness and permitted to
cross the line without knowing 1t. and
the men into which these boys grow will
be decidedly crooked in morals, How
can we expect anything else?
The other day an office boy had sick
leave for half a week. sent for his wages
on Saturday, and on Monday announced
the fact that he had found a new post
ton. which announcement was made
through another party. He did not have
the moral courage to do his own errand,
for he knew that it was not square. and
he is just beginning his business career.
The child has been started badly, and
apparently no. hand has been stretched
out to turn his face in the right direc-
ton. It is easy to imagine the manhood
OF such a child, and It is serious to re-
feet that he is only one Of a class, much
larger than we dream. perhaps.
Fidelity and fairness may not always
bring the reward they merit. but they
pay better dividends than crookedness.
There are right and wrong. but no sub
divisions. and our future is largely In
fuenced by out beginning. Lies are
abominable, cheating is dishonorable, and
thickness is OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES are the
precepts upon which to feed boys and
girls. But precepts need to be pointed
by example, so an untruthful mother or
a smart" father may be multiplying what
ever precepts they try TO teach.
/ presume that modern life is respon-
sible for the difficulty of being abso-
lutely truthful In daily life. The child
hears a maid declare that his mother is
not at home, when ne knows her TO be
upsairs and near enough to hear every
word of the conversation at the door.
He is told that there is no more candy
instead OF hearing that he is not to have
any more just then, for good and suf1-
Client reasons. Is ne growing up to re-
spect the truth? Hardly.
1t was good teaching that made family
honor something 10 be treasured When
blood and birth were placed before money
boys and girls had pride In the family
name and the family traditions. Now
they are growing into men and women
who want to forget many things of their
childhood. There is much for which to
honstly blush in hundreds of families,
and are not the children going to learn

Thnmh Sucking.

At FIVE months the flow of saliva usu-
ally becomes much increased and the
baby "drools.'' This is sign that the
teeth are trying to push their way
through the gums. Baby will bite his
finger and put everything he can get
hold of into his mouth. II the child has
never had the thumb sucking habit be
careful that he does not form it now.
Should he show a tendency to form It.
put a small bag on his hand or dip the
thumb in a solution OF quinine or aloes.
A piece OF cardboard bound on the arm
and long enough to reach a little above
and below the elbow. so that the arm
cannot be bent, viii often prove an efTec-
tive means of preventing thumb sucking
when all other means fail. This habit is
not only an ugly one to see, but It
spells the shape Of the finger, and also
the mouth.

Some people contend that true love
cannot exist without jealousy; that it is
the eye OF love quick to see and report
to the heart when any one is trespassing
on its property They further maintain
that the person who isn't Jealous is to
some extent Indifferent
But is such a contention true? Isn't
love that is not jealous the finer, higher
kind?
Jealousy is surely an obtruding OF self,
and the more self enters into love the
less pure it is The jealous person is
thinking of himself and his rights and
not Of the other. He believes some one
Is taking what belongs to him only. or
that the other Is giving what Is his alone
or is not considering him sufficiently. He
is suspicious. If jealousy grows too great
within him. he does not always believe
what the other says. If he doesn't go
this far, he mistrusts. Surely all this is
not the highest type Of love.
The finest love is the one that never
considers self. that thinks only OF the
happiness Of the other. If the one loved
enjoys the society Of a certain person.
the finest love instead OF feeling a quick
jealousy OF that person. instead of mis-
trusting whether this liking is the pure
friendliness II would seem, rejoices in
the others happiness. It isn't suspicious
it doesn't doubt: It is simply glad in the
others JOY.
There Is usually trace of smallness
and meanness in the nature that is jeal-
ous' and the greater the Jealousy the

Eastern Railroads Grant Large
Increase

Following the lead of the Penn
sylvania railroad. which gave q
6 per cent wage increase to 1875, :
600 employees, came the announce
ment from the Philadelphia and
Reading railway today Of SINH
lar advance.
Like the Pennsylvania, the
Readings increase affects all en-
ployes who receive less than $500
month. Readings advance,
however, does not include those
employees whose wages have been
adjusted within the last ninety
days. The increase announced to-
day affects 1000 employees.
The prosperous condition of the
railroads and the high cost of liv-
ing are given as the reasons for
the increase by both companies. -

Word was received yesterday
that George Schlottman had arriv-

for teams to haul the car of goods

The Chamberlain Bridge

The railway bridge on the Mil
waukee line over the Missouri riv-
er at Chamberlain, would be an
important link in the line of travel
between the eastern and western
parts of this state, il any such
bridge existed for such length of
time as would accustom the travel
ing public and freight shippers to
use and depend upon it, but it has
been such An uncertain structure,
yielding to high water. heavy
water, heavy winds and natural
decay on divers and sundry occa-
sions and almost invariably when
it was most needed, as the case the
present spring for instance. The
railway company is of course a
great sufferer by these frequent
Interruptions and the wonder has
been that it has not long remedied
the trouble by building 4 substan-
tial bridge which it is amply able
to do as is evidenced by its recent
construction Of a line to the Pacif-
ic and the expenditure of millions
in other directions. 1t certainly
is not delaying the construction of
a safe and durable bridge at that
point through any lack of financial
ability, and it is evident that it has
already lost in traffic an amount
that would probably have bnilt the
structure. This peculiar situation
gives rise to q suspicion that the
company has not yet decided upon
its permanent crossing in that
vicinity. 1t is surmised that it is
awaiting developments. In the
meantime the settlers along the
line from Oacoma to Rapid City
and the adjacent country find their
enterprise hampered and the de-
velopment of their towns and farm
ing sections greatly retarded. 1t
becomes very serious matter when
it is considered in connection with
the welfare and interests of the
hundreds of settlers who have been
induced to settle in that section by
the assurance of ample transporta-
tion facilities, and the settlers re-
alizing this have made every effort
to induce the company to apply
the only remedy by building 4
substantial bridge. They have
appealed to the state railway COM
mission. but that body finds itself
without adequate authority in this
case. The Missouri river being
q navigable river, its bridges are
under federal and not state juris-
diction, and even if this was not
the case the board is restricted by
law in its authority to do no more
than determine the unsafe charac-
ter of = bridge and notify the CON-
pany whose duty it is to put the
bridge in good order. -Yanktoo

One Mans View

UHe mans view
1t has been said by one. not 4
a citizen of the United States. that
one of Americas greatest draw
backs to real greatness is tho mate
desire that it's citizens possees for
their commercia pursuits.
Poetry, art, literature and Ill the
finer senses, he says. are sacrificed
to the god of busines.
TO any fair minded person it is
apparent that this stigma upon our
nation is true, and furthermore
that year after year as commercial
prosperity continues and Is values
continue to increase this stigma is
becoming more and more applica-
ble. Men have become so imboed
with the thought of material wealth
that many have forgotten I'll else,
in the mad rush for gold.
To illustrate, let me- bring one
concrete example to show how the
business idea at times takes abso-
Lutte possession Of the Americans
mind, dethroning him from his high
estate as moral creature as his
brothers keeper and as an instru-
ment for the uplifting and better
ing of mankind and makes him
merely machine of flesh and
blood whose object in life is only
to do or not to do as the opportu-
nifty for increased business may
indicate. That example is the
liquor traffic as licensed by the
American people today.
This awful condition exists in
the United States as q monumental
disgrace to the nation for no other
reason than that the 'man-for-
business-only" element sanction it.
1t is not mad love for drink that
prompts him to advocate high
license. 1t is not the love for
drink that prompts our national
congress year after year to avoid
battle against our present sys-
tenn of government license, which
all concede is wrong. 1t is busi-
ness coupled with fear of political
dethronment; backed by the still,
small voice of the large constitu-
ancy to be found in nearly every
town and community, who repre-
sent the 'for-business-only' land
many of those prefer to be known
as christian gentlemen) congress
man crawl back in their shell on
the subject of liquor and the saloon,
make a huge noise over q Ballin-
ger controversy or some other
trivial matter and utterly ignore
their privilege and certain duty to
unseat that evil which is destroy
ing the very vitals of our national
life. 1t is not the love for drink
that makes men vote against state
prohibition or county option it Is
business They see the awful CAL
amity Of hundreds of men tem-
porarily thrown out of business;
they see the closing of breworiss
and distilleries that have brought
thousands of dollars annually in
to the banks of their state, and
their hearts grow faint at the
thought of shutting of this choice
revenue.
