\ WORD TO YOUNG MEN.-One of
the meanest things a young man can
do, is to monopolize the time and at
tention of young lady for year or
more, without any definite object, and
to the exclusion of other gentlemen,
who, supposing him to have matrimon-
ial intentions, absent themselves from
her society. The selfish "dog-in-the
manger' way of proceedings should be
discountenanced by all parents and
guardians. 1t prevents the reception
of eligible offers of marriage, and
fastens upon the young lady, when the
acquaintance is finally dissolved the
unmerited appeilation of "firt." Let
your actions with women, young man,
be frank, honest and noble. That
many, where education and position in
life would warrant our looking for bet
ter things, are culpably criminal on
these points, is no excuse for your
short coming. That woman is often
injured or wronged, through her holi-
est feelings, adds but blacker dye to
your meaneSs. Young man, beware
lest through your actions, some young
lady, beautiful and lovely, may be left
an old maid by your impertinency.

Huw many Nebraskans realize how large
some of the eastern life insurance COM
panies now are? If all the state and
national banks in the whole state of Ne
broska were merged into one colossal
bank, the assets of this bank would not
equal forty per cent of the assets of just
one of the New York companies. Now
while these eastern companies can fur
nish to Nebraskans good safe insurance,
The Midwest Life can do the same thing,
and the premiums paid 1t will remain
in Nebraska. Other things being equal
which is the saner course for the people
Of this state: To patronize eastern life
insurance companies, the direct effect of
which is to make stronger the financial
institutions of the east; or to patronize
Nebraska companies, the direct effect OF
which is to keep money in Nebraska and
to develop her own institutions

BOSTON, May 24.-At the meeting of the
National League of Unitarian laymen to-
day the following from President Taft was
read by Secretary Burdett:
MY Dear Mr.. Burdett: In accepting for
another year the position of honorary
president of the National League of Uni
tartan laymen, 1 am glad to express my
sense of responsibility devolving upon the
laymen, not only Of our own church but
of all the churches, as churchmen, to
uphold the religious ethical principles for
which the church stands, and apply these
principles actively to the solution of the
civic, SOCIAL and Industrial problems that
today are confronting our country. We
look to the churches and kindred organiza-
tons for the preservation of these ideals
and we should hail every fundamentally
which is adopted for their PRONUNCIATION.
"One of the most pleasing signs of the
times is the rise of organizations within
the church, by which earnest men com.
bine for the purpose of increasing the
strength OF the church as a body, making
it a power for the amelioration of socla
conditions and carrying its message int
all lands. BY such organizations, properly
dir1cted. can the ideals for wNch we
stand, such as charity, forbearance, civil,
righteousness and human brotherhood, b.
applied to the working out of our nationa
destiny.
Sincerely yours,
