Afterward there was a reconciliation.

the elopement-uamely. that she had
never worked for a living.
Which was q poor boast.
Certainly she was poor, and II she
did not work who worked for her?
In place OF being ashamed OF her
self she Is ashamed Of her poverty and
considers it something less than an in
suit that 1t should be said she ever was
employed In q shop or department

That IL one way in which class dts

an honest laborer 10 ashamed OF his

that other persons should take the cue
and look down upon him and his

Wish to call you attention to the
manner in which people are accosted
when passing down North A street by
the Y. NJ. c. A. because Of u lot OF boys
who seem to make habit Of sitting
in the windows and calling TO passers-
by. One dislikes to let his daughter
walk by the Y. NJ. c. A., fearing that
almost any time that some boy may
make an insulting remark to her. l
know from actual experience that
there are some boys who continually
sit in the windows after the hours OF
four and six. in the afternoon and yell
at young ladies, who pass them. and
have shown no signs whatever of con-
Quoting themselves In 4 proper man
ner, and We think the boys themsei
YES should have self pride enough to
keep them from treating ladies' other
than they would like to have their
own mothers or sisters treated. But.
in view of the fact that they do not.
it seems that some measures should
be taken at this public institution to
prevent the boys or young men from
calling to peonle on the sidewalks as
| they have done heretofore. This is
extremely humiliating. and the young
ladies and women who have had such
experience with the boys making re
marks to them without the slightest
provocation. will sanction the above.

From Far and Near
English the Universal Language.
rom the Atlanta Journal.

From the Atlanta journal.
1t is deeply interesting and re-
markable circumstance that the Chin
ese government has issued an edict
making English the official language
for scientific and technical education
throughout the empire. The action is
particularly significant. Here Is the
most conservative nation OF history, a
people who are estranged by tempera-
ment and tradition from all that is
western and modern. They have chos-
en- English as the official language OF
their scientific and technical schools.
All this means that the English people
are the greatest factors in our present
day civilization. and it means. further
more, that II the old disaster of Babel
tower is ever to be undone it will be
through the English language.

Aviators and Insurance.

From the Topeka State Journal.
Aviators have been barred from the
privilege of taking out life insurance.
This won't be much of a hardship on
the successful ones. Every time they
make a trip of any account they win
small fortunes. that will be able to
keep the wolves from the doors of
those who may be dependent upon
them when the seemingly inevitable
accident comes along.
