everything low in price, costing little
money, that is cheap; that is worth
reading. Some is merely worthless,
some other is not only worthless,
but absolutely harmful. We must
learn to separate "The wheat from
the tares." 1t will not do for us
to let pernicious literature lie in our
houses. While we want our children
educated and well informed, we
don't want them misinformed, and
a vicious book, a paper with low
ideals will do great harm, especially
to the young mind.
Now, viewing Mormonism, poly
gamy, and plural marriage as
do, / would be criminal in
my own eyes, and In the sight of
my Maker too, I believe, if l permit
ted that kind of literature to lie in
my house, to come under the eyes of
my young daughter. That is the way
/ see it. If we wish our children to
be pure and high-minded, we must
keep high ideals ever before them.
Let us see that there is plenty OF
good, clean, wholesome reading mat
ter in the house at all times, and
have it lying around, don't be too
"clean a house-keeper" about Its be-
ing put away; let it be scattered
about where it will catch the eye.
Let us not be like the Pharisees of
old, let us put the more weighty
matters" forward, ahead of little
dust, little disorder. If our homes
are made inviting, if our children
are allowed to lay a paper, or
book down where they are, they will
doubtless "go back and finish the
piece when if it is put away, they
may not.
Give the young folks all the
chance in the home you can. don't
believe in forcing children in school
for too long at time, although
when / write, that, some one may say
| don't believe in education; but
DO; still there are lots Of ways to get
what we want besides by force. l
have seen some children, children
with fine minds, that had they been
mine, l surely would have taken
them out of school. They had grown
tired. were not studying, were learn
ing to idle their time away, and
learning little of value.

HEk farmers ana farmers wives,
is no reason we should not
read other things than agricultural
papers. Of course, we should read
them, and get all the information
about our profession we can, but we
should not stop at that. We as citi-
zens, should take some political pa
pers to keep informed about the do
ings of our country in that line. If
we don't know of our country's do
ings, politically, we will not know
what legislation to urge our law
makers to institute. And we can
read one or two good weeklies. We
should do that in the interest of
good government, for who should be
more interested in good government
than the farmer, since he is in the
great majority?
Every family should take and read
one or more good monthly maya
zines, for they give one wider
range of thought, and are not so
transient in their nature and infor-
nation. They give us better
grasp on things, for their writer's
are the best informed men of our
day, and therefore, they give us the
best thought of the times.
Then every house mother should
take at least one good woman's
magazine for herself and her daugh
ters, it will aid them in innumerable
ways, not the least being the infor-
nation she will gain about her
house-work and raising children. It
will also give her and them the
thoughts of the best writer's in all
things pertaining to women's world,
not only in "styles and fashions,
but in the weighty matters OF life.
But with all these papers to read,
we should buy and keep good books,
and read them. Books Of poetry APP
peal to most young people, II they
are aided and encouraged to read
them, and poetry helps one in ex-
preston, and uplifts ones mind.
What is more useful after a hard
trying day, than book of good
poetry? And we can get them in
simple, inexpensive binding, that
most any one can buy. And we can
get books on history and biography
that add so much to ones mental
store.
Now. because I bring in the Bible,
the Sunday school literature, and all
relifSaus reading last, is not to make
them least. No, no. But that they
are the most important is so plain
that it is potent to every thinking
mind l can't understand the mind
that could think otherwise. No, we
must read our Bible and Bible helps,
and encourage our children to do so.
Because we are hard working people
is no reason we should not be Bible
readers and Bible scholars. Our
Saviour was a hard working man,
working at that hard, precarious
calling, a carpenter, before He be-
came "a fisher of men" Paul was
tent maker" Luke was physi-
1 clan All hard working men, setting
us the example that though we work
with our hands, often in the dirt
! and CRIME of poverty, we can and
should cultivate the mental and
spiritual part of our nature. Search
the scriptures, for in them We think
We have eternal life; for they do
testify of Me-"
There is no excuse for any one
not being we'll informed in this day
of cheap literature, cheap publishing.
But we must watch the kind OF
cheap literature we read, and watch
doubly close what kind our children
and young folks read. 1t is not
