There is no doubt but that a large
per cent of the degradation, disgrace,
ruin and crime among the young,
springs from the habit of night prowI
ing, corner 1oafing and kindred acts
by both sexes in city town and ham
let all over this broad country. Any
person who keeps his or her eyes
open knows this. Hundreds Of boys
and girls are out at night and we all
know that many influences for evil
and none for good surround them con
tinua}Iy. A curfew restriction may
be derided as old fashioned and pur-
but the fact remains that
there is vastly less night proving
in towns that have a curfew ordi
nance and enforce it.
The we'll informed woman may gen
orally be known, not SO much by

friends and neighbors.
No man is ever likely to accom-
plish any more than he resolutely
sets himself to accomplish The ten
dency is to drift, to float with the

REST AND RELAX.
BY EDWIN A. NYE.


Alone!
Do you know there are 4 lot OF PEG.
pie who pronounce that word with
fear? To be alone. If only for a short
time, is regarded as a bore, IL not
worse.
You wonder why?
Because they have never become ac-
quainted with themselves and do not
know how to entertain themselves for
a single hour. They really need to be
introduced to themselves.
Solitude?
There is need Of it. The mere fric-
ton of mingling with other persons
becomes wearing. however little one
may realize it. And there can be no
real culture Of self except there be oc-
casional solitude.
Watch the faces on the street.
See the set expression. the lines Of
solicitude and WEAKNESS. the worn
looks. How seldom you see q calm
src happy yscs.
saw one placid face the other day,
1t was the face OF a woman l know.
And know the cause Of her calmness
and poise.
She is woman with a good sized
family and many cares. but she is
careful to take a certain hour TO be
alone for short time each day. when
she lies down for rest and relaxa
ton.
Husband and children know and re
spect her moments of quiet withdraw
al. They know she is the sweeter and
better wife and mother because OF
that stated rest of mind and body.
Another instance:
A Chicago business man Of very
large affairs lunches alone not because
he is stingy. but because he flnds
strength in quiet moment by him
self His associates understand ant
do not disturb him.
And another:
ADes Moines lawyer In active prac
tice at eighty years says the secret o.
his vitality is in five minutes nap h
has taken In the middle of the day TO
the past fifty years.
Practice being alone.
Under the strain and tax of house
hold duties the delicate, nervous sys
tenn of women especially becomes over
wrought. Rest and relaxation CONF
as a benediction to the tired spirit.
Alone you can think your bes
thoughts and work out your specia
problems.
| All great men and women have cul
| tivated solitude.
Alone they have gained victories
over self and have then been able t
face frowning world with cheerful
| effort.

A SCENIC RAILWAY IS NOT A
MERRY GO ROUND. In the case OF
ex parte HUH, 10 Pacific Reporter. 256,
defendant applies for habeas corpus to
obtain discharge from conviction for
violating a certain Sunday rest law by
unlawfully running a scenic railway.
The statute provides that 1t shall be
unlawful to keep open on Sunday any
theater, rygo-round. circus. etc.
The state contended that a scenic rail-
way is analogous ana similar to a
merry go-round and is thereby prohib-
tied. The supreme court OF Idaho held
that there Is wide and distinguish
able difference between the two. A
scenic railway consists OF a track sew
ieral hundred feet long, on which cars
are elevated by means of a <cogwheel
attachment It is built on a general
incline, and the cars run from the
highest point by force of gravity. Ten
cents worth of amusement via this rail
way lasts about two minutes. The
merry -go-round needs no description.
for, on account of its popularity. 1t is
known and understood by all. The
court in concluding that a scenic rail-
way does not come within the prohibi-
ton of the statute said: There is a
similarity between the merry-go-round
| and this scenic railway II that each
furnishes a ride. but the character ct
tLe ride IS apparently very ciSerert
on the scenic railway from that of the
| merry go-round. One of the dis
ltinguishing features of the merrygo-
round is the inspiring and animating
sacred and patriotic music which II
furnishes. and which tends to make 1t
more public than 1T otherwise might
! be. This the scenic railway does not
seem to have. The scenic railway Is
by force of necessity obliged to make
up In scenery for the loss of horses
CRATES. zebras. elephants and other
beasts of burden that add interest and
variety to the merry go-round. Riders
of animals of the same species are en-
abled to quietly converse together
while they enjoy the music, but on the
scenic railway there is nothing to be
done but to hold on, exercise the
muscles and view the scenery.
