What Should Be Done with Parents.

What Should Be Done With Parents.
1t seems remarkable that with about
sixteen thousand new criminal stat
utes recorded each year nothing has
yet been done for the regulation Of
parents.
Children are daily, nay, hourly,
subjected to modification because
their parents commit some breach OF
modern etiquette or betray hopeless
ignorance on some vital point, and
this goes on day after day and year
after year and nothing is done about
1t.
Too much, of course, should not be
expected Of our modern parents; that
they know nothing of geography is,
for example, not necessarily to be laid
to their discredit. But that they are
hopelessly ignorant of slang, that they
sniff at cigarettes and rouge and that
they like to see plays where the vii
lain meets his just due and virtue its
reward, and that they wear shocking
ly old-fashioned clothes, are all mat
ters for public as we'll as private con-
Germ.
What are we to do with parents
who never drink anything stronger
than lemonade, leave their spoons in
their coffee cups, refuse to sit in roof
gardens until midnight and dislike to
ride in a motor going more than thirty
miles an hour?-Life.

PUTTING 1T RATHER NEATLY
Piece Of Humor That Lifted Dlffident
Professor to the Highest
Summer of Joy.

1t is told that after Professor Ay-
toun had made proposals of marriage
to Miss Emily Jane Wilson, daughter
of Christopher North, he was, as a
matter of course, referred to her ia
ther. AS the professor was uncom-
monty diffident, he said to her:
Emily, my dear, you must speak to
him for me. / could not summon
courage to speak to the professor on
this subject"
Papa is in the library" said the
lady.
Then you had better go to him."
said the professor, land / will wait
here"
There being apparently no help for
it, the lady proceeded to the library.
"Papas answer is pinned to the
back of my dess," said Miss Wilson,
as she re-entered the room.
Turning around, the delighted suitor
read these words:
With the authors compliments. =

HEART RIGHT.
When He Quit Coffee.

Life Insurance Companies will not
insure a man suffering from heart
trouble.
The reason Is obvious.
This is a serious matter to the hus-
band or father who is solicitous for
the future of his dear ones. Often
the heart trouble is caused by al un-
expected thing and can be corrected X
taken in time and properly treated. A
man in Colorado writes:
Il was T. great coffee drinker for
many yeaSs, and was not aware of the
injurious effects Of the habit till ]
became a practical invalid, suffering
from heart trouble, indigestion and
nervousness to an extent that made
me wretchedly miserable myself and
a nuisance to those who witnessed my
sufferings.
II continued TO drink coffee, how
ever, not suspecting that 1t was the
kcause of my ill-health, till on applying
FLOR life insurance was rejected on ac-
count OF the trouble with my heart.
Then / became alarmed. found that
leaving off coffee helped me quickly, so
] quit It altogether and having been
attracted by the advertisements of
Postum / began its use.
"The change In my condition was re-
markable. All my ailments vanished.
My digestion was completely restored,
my nervousness disappeared, and,
most important of all, my heart stead
led down and became normal, and on
second examination was accepted by
the Life Insurance Co. Quitting coffee
and using Postum worked the change"

Creek, Mich.
There's a reason" and Il is ex-
planned in the little book, THE Road
10 Wellville," in pkgs.

HOW TO KILL CUT WORMS
Use Of Poisoned Bait Has Been Fairly
Successful in Destroying
the Pests.

The use of poisoned bait has been
somewhat successful in destroying cut
worms. In small garden it is possi-
BILE to dig them out and destroy them.
OF the bats used. clover is the favor
ite. A goodly pile of clover should
be cut, and while it Is still fresh and
green 1t should be wet down with
paris green and water, then, late in
the afternoon so that It will keep just
as long as possible, twist punches Of
this wetted clover into wads, more or
less compact, and throw out over the
fields at short intervals. The cut
worms will hide under such wads of
fresh green food in the morning aft
er the nights travel, eating a little
of the poison before hiding away.
Poisoned bran, sweetened with
little molasses and made into moist
balls the size of plum has been rec
commended and Mr.. Sirrene of New
York recommends dry bran mixed
with dry paris green sowed on the
surface of the soil. Care must be
taken Of such poisoned bats where
animals or poultry are liable to get
on the field. The worms bury them
selves before dying and so are not
found on the top of the soil.
The habit of passing the winter in
partially grown condition suggests
fall plowing as a means of destroying
them, unless this is undesirable for
cultural methods.-From. Exp. Station

Thackeray's Kindness of Heart.

Thackeray was the gentlest satir-
ist that ever lived. AS editor Of the
Cornhill he could hardly bring him
self to reject MS. for fear of hurting
his would-be contributors. The story
of his actually paying for contribu-
tions that he never printed, in order
to conceal the fact that he had reject
ed them, may be true or false. We do
not remember exactly how the evil
dence points. But even if it be a
story, such stories are not told of men
made of the stern stuff of the Thack-
cray commonly misknown.
