The Saeredness
Of Sparkling"

Among the complaints of a Cleve-
land man who has sued for divorce is
stated the grievance that his step
daughters persisted in having young
men stay late at night.
"Reminiscences proving OF no avail,
he punished them; whereupon his
wife, who approved their conduct,
bundled up her belongings and, taking
her daughters, left him forlorn.
Served him right!
The man who sets himself counter
to such thoroughly established in
stitution as sparkling" puts himself
in the attitude of the bull that planted
itself before the locomotive, and he
must expect painful results.
For Sparkling is here to stay.
But for it, life would become at a
certain age, not worth living and race
suicide would become indeed a matter
Of serious apprehension.
How foolish in us ever to forget
What weakness in us ever to let the
mists OF age obscure our memories Of
experiences so sweet and sacredl
Into every healthy human life this
experience must come as the dearest
delight Of existence, and the most
fruitful Of good. not to the individual
alone, but to civilization.
The man whose life was never mel
lowed by a midnight kiss stolen from
not too unwilling lips cannot ripen at
the core.
The throbbing thing where his heart
ought to be is only a pump.
His mind and his emotions are
soured and shrunken, as is shaded
melon that never knew the quickening
thrill of the sunshine.
We who are grown old and heart
hardened may sheer at It now and
think that young hearts should be cal
loused as old ones are; but time was
with US when we looked forward
through the seven days to Sunday
night as the golden time of the week.
And our fathers did it. And our
grandfathers. And our great grand
fathers.
II is an ancient human custom that
did not originate with our own youth,
nor fade with it.
Our children do it, in spite of our
frowns.
And our grandchildren will. And
our great grandchildren.
Generations come and go, but
sparkling remains.
The delicious nights when the fire
burned low. and the lamp. too, hold a
hallowed place in the memory of every
heart.
The low. fire and low light cast a
sweet, softened glow that lasts all the
way to theG grave-yes, lights us be-
yond it.

WESTVILLE.

Westville, July Rain yesterday

Mrs. w. II. Grace and little daugh-
ter, Won CieI, were over Monday and
Tuesday.
Mrs. f. Bullock stopped off Sunday
with her father. after having been to

Mrs. Walter Willie was over for
the Matthews-Neel 81 edding.
One of the prettiest weddings to ever
take place in our little city was
soIemnized on Tuesday, June 25th, at
the Methodist church, when Miss Addy
Matthews became the bride of Mr.
Ray Neel. The bride. who was attired
in a beautiful imported travelling

Where is that garden of YESTERDAY.
The garden which was our joy?
The plot where we labored with hoe
and spade;
TWAS pleasure without alloy.
Where are the onions and melons we
So proudly stuck in the ground?
The produce with which we would
supply
The neighbors for miles around?
Where is the garden sass we would
raise
Sufficient for all our needs?

which could come nearest without
hitting" there is pretty sure to be a
hit now and then not exactly to be
cataloged as pure accident.
Nor is the occasional wounding and
killing the worst result of desperate
plays.
There is far worse result, and 1t
is not occasioned, not in the least &C
cidentaI, but inevitable.
That is the brutalizing of the minds
and hearts of the boys who take part
in it.
Familiarity with the debasing allure
ments of outlawry and crime is the
most dangerous thing that boys can
cultivate.
Better almost that boy should be
shot in the outlaw play than that he
should have stamped upon him by it
the impression that romance and hero
ism lie along that line.
So long as in the theatres we ac-
cept VIGOROUSLY bad men as heroes we
must expect boys not only to do the
same, but to pattern after that sort
of heroism.
The career that a boy regards as
heroic and romantic and initiates at
play is the career that most profoundly
influences his whole after life.
The youthful Napoleon playing with
his wooden soldiers was developing the
qualities of the great general not more
surely than is the boy who plays at
being a bandit training within himself
the instincts and characteristics of
crime.

It is a common and always possible

border line between make believe and
reality.

By shoveling the snow from the

you leave it three or four days.
II only. one or two parties in block
shovel the snow from their walks IT
does no good. Everybody must do 1t.
A good way to make the furnace fire
burn all night is to bank It with ashes.
Ashes are cheap.
Ears which have been frozen should
be rubbed with snow and bathed in
Ice water. Never use warm water.
Snow cream is a delicious little con-
lection to serve at an evening junction.
Anyone who ventures out of doors
in this kind of weather should bundle
up well and pay particular attention
to the throat. There is nothing better
than one of those oldfashioned yarn
mufflers that you can wrap around the
neck four or FIVE times.
