for few hours. When the mother re-
turned she went to particular cup
In the cupboard to extract therefrom
one-haif dollar. In this cup is kept
the family pin money, and Julia's
motner knew that she had put fifty
cents there before she had gone out.
But the half dollar was gone. There
was an expression Of anxiety on
Julia's face and mother scented mis-

Did you take that money!" asked
the mother, somewhat severely.

Does any first voter realize the null
meaning OF American citizenship?
To be a fullhedged citizen OF the
United States. at the entrance to
young manhood. is one of the greatest
privileges in all the tide OF time. No
catisen Of ancient Babylon. or Greece,
or Rome. could claim anything re-
senbling such heritage, in enlighten-
I'd freedom. unlimited opportunity,
useful development and the capacity
for real happiness. The young Amer
icaA citizen is the heir Of all the ages.
But his priceless heritage carries
with It an equal measure OF RESPONSE
bility. His duties are OF the highest
order ever known to man. To perform
them properly should be his chief con-
oerl at all times. By this test of eff1-
cieacy will his usefulness be recorded
for this and future generations.
There must needs be two political
parties in our Republican form of gov
ernment. But before a young man
Joins either party. he should deliber-
ately apply the supreme business
tests to both. viz: Which can give
the best reason for its existence:
which looks to the future with the
greater confidence of benefiting the
human racer"
Any young man entering business
should be glad of the chance to be-
come a member of an established firm
with years of success behind it.

And so In choosing his political
Affiliations the first voter should study
thoroughly the platforms. principles
and records of the great political par
ties, before allying himself with eth
or. He will find this task both agree
able and instructive. II he goes into
tho record OF facts impartially, there
cannot be the shadow OF doubt in
his mind as to which way hiA duty
may lie. He will find that the Repub-
lican party is a great constructive,
patriotic league. whose upper register
of fame contains the names of most
great Americans who have lived and
wrought during the last fifty-eight
years. He will be reminded that from
Lincoln to Taft, with one single excep-
ton, every president of the United
States has accepted the inspiring Re-
publican doctrine. He will learn that
it was under tho leadership Of the Re
publican party that our Union was
preserved and the stain OF slavery
vsshed forever from the Stars and
Stripes; that Cuba was freed and
started her on her career Of destiny:
that the Philippines and Porto Rico
were rescued from three centuries of
Spanish tyranny. and are being pre-
pared for self-government; that the
Panama Canal is being built-making
the old-world dream Of centuries come
