a PICTURE.

| AS a rule. we should prefer to hanr
! up ouly beautiful pictures for the pub
| liz gaze
But even the hideous picture--if it Is
true-nuy have its USES. Here is one
A wealthy citizen of New York was
suing another wealthy citizen ioI
alternating the affections of the fol
mer's wife. The wife was put Cd int
witness stand.
This is part of her testimony:
Describing some of the lively times
with gentlemen" friends, she told ri
one luncheon at a cafe: Il took the sill
yer sugar bowl. and the gen,tctHru
gave me Two knives and forks Az,
two spoons | hid them under toy
cloak"
Continuing. she said, "One of the
men tried to take the brass lamp. but
1t was fastened" whercat the wumafl
smiled and said. y always took lhiIg~
for souvenirs wherever we ate" she
also remarked significantly:
1--WE all had more than the usual
amount of champagne"
Doubtless
Questioned concerning her life with
her husband, the woman testified:
my husband made me drink. IL
always got drunk at dinner. We used
to make him comfortable on two
chairs. He was cruel to me and called
me she devil"
And this:
He associated with n low woman
/ used to joke him about her and lis
taste"
Asked concerning her divorce pro
ceedings. she admitted she had gont: to
Dakota, where she and gentleman
acquaintance lived at hotel AS broth
er and sister.
This is not page from Balzac
Ii is The printed testimony in u court
of record in New York
You don't like it?
Well it is rather ''impressioniSftc."
as one might say But it is true And
it is typical In an adjoining colnmn
of the same newspaper is another ret
elation of high life' almost as nan
seous.
This Hogarthian but realistic picture
OF vice in velvet is a iii compani"tr
piece to the crude wickedness of the
sums
To fifty characterize the picture IL
words is impossible. ALI that may bc
done is to hang it up, for contemporary
study
How shall we label it?
Suppose we put under it the familiar
words:
LII fares the land. to Fastening ills prey.
Where wealth accumulates and men land
womenD decay.

A BRAVE WOMAN.

This is story of woman's steady
courage
She is janitress.
For several years she suffered the in
Fiction of drunken husband, who
finally left her the heritage of bitter
memories and two small children.
To support herself and little family
she took charge of building That
was twenty years ago. She Is still
janitress of the place
Out of her earnings she gave to her
children what she was denied-a com.

she threw up dixie against posi-

The flood came
Inheriting disease from the father,
the children died, one after the other.
shortly after they had reached tlreif
majority.
The illness, the expense of the fliner
ais and the two headstones side by sid
in the cemetery took the woman's en
tire savings.
She went back to work the next day
after each of the funerals. her face q
shade grayer. but with q sad smile OF,
her features for those who knew her
And now she has thrown up onr
more barrier against misfortune in On
other little bank account And always
she Is welcome everywhere because of
the sunshine In her face
Never in twenty years has she
troubles.
Asked one day the secret of heI
brave fight. she replied:
ut never changes a thing to com
plain. and people do not like It."
A commonplace tale?
1t is not. It is story of unusual
bravery and of a woman who. though
uneducated. is in the possession Of an
unusual philosophy Read 1t again:
ut never changes a thing to com
| plain, and people do not like it"
About the most useless habit one
may acquire is that of complaining OF
ones difficulties. The condition is
merely made worse by self centered
whining and moping.
And certainly people do not like

He who is forever finding fault with
his situation in life becomes an intol
cradle bore. If he can help himself
he should do so: if he cannot help him
self he should grin and bear it-apd
keep still.
The world is quick to respond to the
plea of real distress, but 1t has no pa
thence with a gutter and chronic
grumbler.
Let the wilmer scrub floors like this

"Third.-An aunt cared for me until

the malign influences of heredity and

this young man what he became
1t is difficult to see how he could
have been other than he was.
While he pleaded guilty, who is real
ly guilty of his unmaking?
His parents are guilty. Society is
guilty
So long as parents may throw of
responsibility for their offspring as Il
peddler throws off his pack. so long
as divorces are granted for trivial
causes. SO long as boys are permitted
to grow up without guardianship. So
long as society licenses men TO make
boys drunken. so long will we con
tinue to make young convicts.
And still stands the Nazarene over
