sELF-CENTRED LIVES
BY the Rev. Charles Sickle.

BY the Rev. Charles Stelzle.
1t is Righteousness that exalts q
a tt mot "self-righteousness.' -
This is also true of the individual.
self-righteousness is just as deplorable
in a trades unionist as it is in q
churchman. When the much exploited
Pharisee passed away, they did not
bury with him with thecopyright on
all the goodness and the loyalty that
had ever been developed.
When poor discouraged Elijah
wanted the Lord to take away his
life, it was on the plea that he alone
of all the Israelites, had been loyal
to the God of. their fathers. 49,:
II, even only am left; and they
seek my life. to: take it away. he
said. .a~ .-..: -
But Elijah was reminded that there
were fully seven thousand in Israel
who hadn't bowed the knee to Baal
nor kissed him. :
Elijah's declaration was probably
due to a fit of the blues. That kind
of thing is responsible for the spirit
that sometimes grows among many
really loyal trades unionists. Per-
haps It Is more pardonable than the
spirit Of self-righteousness, but it all
so is provoking to the loyal "seven
thousand" who have been true to the
demands of the hour. ..<
1t all resolves itself into this fact
most Of us are too self-centred. We
come to believe that our little plan
Is the most important, and, there
fore We think that our little lives
are counting for the most. Now 1t
may be that We really have a pretty
good thing. And it Is. quite likely
that in most things we are absolutely
honest. But frankly, there are others
whose lives and whose plans are
counting for just as much as ours, but
they are operating in different ways
and they are Influencing different
constituencies. Let US give them
credit for what they are doing. They
are working out in all sincerity their
own lives, and that is we'll. It is
all that we have a right to expect OF
them. And so, whether it be self
Righteousness or a fit Of the blues
that has swung us out of harmony
with the best movements of modern
times.-let us swing back. We are
injuring no one but ourselves by
holding aloof from our fellows.

Do Not Tease Children.

Parents, do not tease your children
Teasing not only ruins their tempers
but will mar their characters as we'll.
A "sneaky" disposition and untruth-
fulness Is the result. Nearly every
one loves to see an innocent child.
one whose thoughts do not wholly
turn to sweethearts and love affairs.
Children are naturally innocent, but
their little minds are eager to grasp
any knowledge. whether good or bad,
and you may mold them whichever
way you will. Another way Of poison
ing the mind is the reading Of novels
cheap ones, especially. Better never
let them read at all than to read
these. A child whose mind is filled
with novel nonsence is not going to
care about going to school. You will
more often find him on the streets.

NURSERY.
Care of Children's Hair.

So many mothers neglect their
children's hair because they are "just
children" which is a sad mistake.
their hair should be properly washed
and Immediately afterward oiled or
hair vaseline used, which keeps it
soft and prevents breaking. Also the
use Of night caps is g. wonderful help
and makes very little extra work.
Girls hair should be kept clipped
until they are II years old and they
will have much nicer hair when they
are young women. Sometimes these
few little attentions add much to their
beauty in after years and mother will
get her part of the credit.

FIRE LOSS WAS
SMALL THIS YEAR
Fire Chief Miller Reviews
Last Eleven Months and
Makes Suggestions.

That fires in this city have been
fewer and less damage has been done
here than in any city in Indiana during
the past year has been reported by
Chief Miller of the local department.
Last year the total extent of fire loss
was $7,S2S, and approximately the
same amount of damage was done this
year. Sixty-seven box alarms and
ninety-four telephone alarms were
turned in during the year of 1911, and
a similar number have been recorded
this year The running expenses of the
company, not including the cost of the
new fire truck, will be approximately
S25,521.83, as the report of last year
showed that amount. AS many as l.
1874 gallons of chemicals were used
last year
The fire conditions of Richmond
were never better than they are at
this time according to the fire chief.
These conditions will be still better
when the building code, now being
drawn up by the council and CONNER
cial Club, is enforced, Chief Miller be-
lieVeS.
A suggestion was made to Mayor
Zimmerman that the old fire engine be
repaired and put into service. This en-
