RULES FOR MOTHERS.

Rev. w. B. Willard of the Morgan
Park Congregational church. Chicago
formulator of the twentieth century
decalogue for fathers has ten up-to-
date commandments for mothers
They cover many mothers little
Whims and decry private card parties,
neighborhood gossip and vanity. In
brief they are as follows:
1. Thou shalt have TO man except
thy husband.
2. Thou shalt place no pleasure
organization or missionary society
before thy home.
3. Thou shalt not waste thy hus-
bands substance on gay rafment and
vain show.
4. Thou shalt not let the petty
vexations of the household disrupt the
family harmony
5. Thou shalt not regale thy family
with idle gossip.
6. Thou shalt not fret because thy
neighbours house is greater than thine,
nor repine when she smiles conde-
scendingly from her limousine to thee
in a trolley car.
put up whist party prizes lest thy
moral advice to thy children become
mockery.
s. Thou shalt not declare to the
conductor that thy 13-year-old child is
of half fare age.
9. Thou shalt not shine with imita-
ton jewelry.
10. Thou shalt not allow thy Bible
to gather dust and thv divine worship
to be governed by the state of the
weather
Rev. Mr.. Willard based his sermon
yesterday morning upon these ten
for mothers.

THE HIGHEST IDEAL.

Suggested by reading the late Sam
Walter Foss' poem entitled. The
House by the Side OF the Road"
Should we live, Is you say, by the
side of the road.
And be but friend to man,
We hardly should follow the WORTH
est line
Or live by the noblest plan,
For to tread in the paths of the
sweetest of lives
That ever this old world trod,
we rather should choose, than the
plaudits of man,
To merit the plaudits of God.
And to live by the side of the road
alone.
And be but a friend to man,
Is too dull and slow in this work-a-
day world
To honor the Hottest plan;
For oftimes the one who would do
the most good
And bless and brighten the race,
Receives but the hatred and scorn of
the world,
Not honor or treasure or placel
My friend, the hist'ry and lives of
the past,
From Jesus to humble John Brown,
Will show when the world takes
higher plan,
Some martyr has laid his life
down;
1t has taken the toll, the sweat and
the blood
That the best of our kind may give
To lift from the mire this stubborn
race,
That the Christ-life within may
live!
The picture you paint is too easy by
To show forth the noblest in men:
It's struggle and battle and sacri-
fee, too,
Net to smile" at the door of your
dem"
Truths suffering army of brave
pioneers
Have marched down the steps of the
past,
They Lave conquered disease and
cannibal lust
Discovered new lands so vast,
But they had more to do in the ages
swirl
Than 10 live at their ease and plan
How the days should go by in "the
house by the road
While being "a friend to man.

Those popgun wiseacres in the Ham
mond, Ind, high school who solemnly
resolved that Shakespeare should be
excluded from the school literary
course on the grounds that he was
the George NJ Cohan of the Eliza
bethan age "a cheap grandstand
player and an immoralist,' should
have the prompt attention Of their
parents and the school authorities. At
this distance it looks as though the
best thing to do would be to spank
them and send them supperless to bed.
