The Law of Association

Y IKE attracts like. The chemist well
 understands that law. He knows A that certain atoms have an affin- ftv for each other-the law of chemical sfsinitv The law is true of people as of atoms Those that are alike mutually attract each other because the law of the spiritual world is the same as the law or the natural world.
 That is to say
 If man is brutal in his feelings, coarse in moral fiber and loud in his conduct ne will attract to himself those that are brutal and loud and coarse. If he does not find his sort his sort will ma hlH.
 Contrawise-
 If one is fine in his instincts, quiet in his ts stes and modest in his conduct he will find himself drawn instinctively to- ward those who are fine and quiet ana modest He whose conduct Is upright and whose life is pure and whose ideals are high will be naturally inclined toward those whose conduct and morals and ideals are like his.
 Like enjoys like
 Ire man of upright disposition and pure morals cannot enjoy the companionshir of the low and the criminally inclined Such association would be painful And the greatest punishment the criminal could undergo would be to put him 1T daily contact with the morally clean.
 Like assimilates like.
 That is the subtle law of the mind It is as true as the law of gravity. as true al the law of specialization. that a human being in changed, transformed into th' Nkeness of the being whom he loves ant ed,nires. If he loves and admires th' rood he will be gradually fashioned int fhe likeness of the good; if he loves ant adrnires the bad he will by the same law bs transformed into the likeness of thu bad.

 cruelty and disappointment. Put yourself ip her place. | Might you have done better? Maybe you have merely been more fortunate than she.

 You Must Fight, Boy
 After all is said my son. success in this world is a matter of hard fighting.
 If there is in you no joy of fight, no love for a scrimmage, you are not likely to score much of a victory.
 Of course I do not mean fighting men physically. That is poor business l mean you must have real thrill in attacking and overcoming things that get into your way, a joy In Jumping over barriers.
 Where shall fall in?' said the new recruit to the fighting colonel. Like a flash was the response: Fall in any where. The fighting Is good all along the line.
 And so it is of life-the fighting is good | anywhere along the line. | There's heat and cold to fight. | And your own laziness. | And ignorance of yourself. | Oh. there are plenty of foes to fight! | The knights of old had no more of it than you will have when you get into the battle line and go up against the things outside of yourself and inside of your | self.
 | And if you have formed the bad habit, even in boyhood, of lodging all the hard blows that fall you will not fight the | good fight.
 The fighter is made by fighting. | The bigger the obstacle in his front, | the heavier the task put upon him, the greater the emergency looms, the moro does the spirit of the fighter rise to | do brave battle.

Sometimes the thoughtless youngsters laughed at her poor speech and awkward recitations. That hurt. And sometimes late at night when the children were in
 bed tears slid slowly down her face on to the garments she fashioned
 But she was plucky.
 And now after three years of hard
 study ii the schools and toilsome nights
 at the machine Mrs. Jacober is shortly to have her diploma. And then? This determined young widow of 32, with three kideens to keep will take a short course in a summer normal school, and
 next fall she will begin teaching In the
 Chicago public schools where position awaits her.
 These are the short and simple annals of Hannah Jacober.
 You can fill in the outlines. Especially
 will every woman understand the strug-
 gle of this lone woman to care Tor her little ones, do her housework and earn
 living, to say nothing of attending | school.
 Why do I tell this story?
 Because it is an unusual hero1sm of 2
 woman. Because no woman-or man.
 either-ever made a braver fight under
 stress and strain. And because some despairing soul may
 read it and take heart again. Your Mother If you should begin now and devote
 every minute of your life until your
 mothers death you could not begin to pay a tithe of what you owe her. When it comes to paying mother you
 are utterly bankrupt. Again and again she has risked her
 life for you. She did that at the begin ning-went cheerfully down into the valley of the shadow that you might be-. Heroism of moth erh ood! In the history of the world there
 have been few brave men who would
 dare to risk their lives for some cause that is dear to tn em, but every woman risks her life for her babe. And that risk is but the commence
 ment of her cheerful sacrifice. To her child she will give her health, her
 strength, her affections. while the breath of life Is in her. To the child
 she will give tenderness and watchful- ness and ceaseless devotion always and forever.
 | And for that devotion, vouchsafed to you until this day, what have you given in recompense to her? | You have given attention to her needs? You have made her comforta- ble? Of course you have done that. You could hot do less But you ought l You % % eusa to saes your m4ehsr n {

When those shells are hurled like a thunderbolt against the hardened steel armor plate of battleship the impact brings out the tremendous force of de- struction pent up inside them. So of the man who is hurled by the hand of fate against the hard conditions of moral life Provided he is of the Maxim make! The impact the striking force of the man. as he goes against hard circum- l stances make him a dangerous explosive to the circumstances. Sure must fight if I would reign. Increase my courage, Lord. So runs the old hymn, which is true in both life and religion. You must fight, boy.
 What She Did
 Her name is Hannah Jacober.
 She occupied high school position in her home in Germany and until her mar riage had worked at nothing more labor ious than needlework. Five years ago the Jacober family came to America, the husband occupying good salaried position. A year afterward he died.
 Mrs. Jacober was left without sup port and with three small children. She was too proud to go back to the father
 
 the wolf knocked at the door of her little flat. She could speak but little English, and it was some time before she could get sewing to do But Mrs. Jacober was brave. With fingers unaccustomed to toll she learned how to use a sewing machine and fashion garments. Early and late she ran her machine to earn bread for her little brood. That's nothing. you say; thousands of women are glad to do that. But wait.
 This woman did the sewing early in the morning and very late at night in order that she might attend high school in the daytime Mind you, she was nearly 30 years of age, she spoke broken English and she must go into the classes of boys and girls In their teens.

She Had no Mother


 This is the sad story of Mrs. Anna Pearl Ryan, mother of a 4-year-old boy at 19
 Mrs. Ryan was arrested in Chicago for cashing a check in Memphis, Tenn. and admitted her guilt. Which looks bad. But wait until you hear her side of the story, an experience told by the little woman, scarcely more than child, as she related it at the police station be- tween sobs:
 My husband won my heart and we were married when I was a mere child My mother was dead. Married at 14 my baby was born when I was scarcely 15
 At that time weighed only S3 pounds and I don't weigh much more than that now. My husband stood more than six feet tall and was powerful man. After awhile he wearied of me and began to abuse me shamefully. When could stand his cruelty no longer got hold of one of his checks for $60, cashed lit and ran away with my baby.
 T have worked my fingers nearly to the bone to keep my baby and I went to South Dakota and to Iowa and Mis- Isouri and then here, trying to keep them from arresting me- Psthetic d tho story iq, ono can reed ! btfHoW tno una< 1Ac erp4'sx o{ eNq
