darkness from our world and brings

A CHEEKY Good Morning" often
sends a ray of sunshine streaming
through the innermost recesses OF a
household, resting there all the live
long day, and again follows hasten
ing footsteps into the mart of bust
ness, lighting up and Frightening 'the
way of the world" as 1t goes. A
hearty Good Night" often soothes
many a troubled mind to rest. and
heals the wounds which have either
come anew to a struggling soul, or
been re-opened by the harsh words or
deeds that are spoken or done in
season or out of season, as the daily
battle of our life progresses.

Mothers train your boys to be neat
in the house. They should be taught
to look after themselves. and TO keep
their hats and coats in their proper
places. Teach them this habit and
you will save many annoyances. and
you will also do a kindness to the
boys by teaching them neatness and
self-respect.

A single bitter word may disquiet
the home for a whole day. but like
unexpected flowers which spring up
along our path, full of freshness and
beauty, SO do kind words and gentle
acts and sweet dispositions make
glad the home where peace and bless
ings dwell. The heart will turn low
ingly toward It from all the tumults
Of the world, and home. "be 1t ever

Marriage is not necessarily a bless
ing.It may be the bitterest curse. 1t
may sting like an adder and bite like
a serpent. Its bower is as often made
of thorns as of roses. 1t blasts as
many sunny expectations as IL real
ICES. Every improper marriage is
living misery, an undying death. An
lilly mated human pair is the most
woeful picture of human wretched-
ness that is presented in the book of
life; and yet such pictures are plen-
ty. But a proper marriage. a true
interior. soul-linked union is a living
picture of blessedness. unrivaled in
beauty.

you will also do a kindness to the
boys by teaching them neatness and
self-respect.
The main thing with children is TO
have them well started with good
principles which they will carry
through life. Obedience, truth. unset
iishness, purity are essentials. and
these can all be lovingly cultivated,
and will flourish in the right home
atmosphere.
The old-fashioned office boy, who
swears smokes cigarettes and is i'm

novels in a corner. or loafs when he
is sent on an important errand, is
fast disappearing, and 1t is predicted
that in the course OF time the office
girl will have entirely taken his place
The boy that knows more than his
parents goes TO the wall in the city.
Success depends upon industry, obed-
fence, economy and purity. Brown
hands clean tongues and hearts are
in great demand in the city. A coun-
try loafer becomes a city and neither
country or city has use for either.
Don't expect others to be sweet,
and polite, and thoughtful, so long as
you adhere to the selfish principle
that people must take you as they
find you" When your friends begin
to grow careless and disrespectful,
stop and think whether you are not
getting back a reflection of yourself.
Take time to read and read a gem
of poetry, or to sing a sweet song to
your children. Above all take time to
study with your children the shading
Of leaf, the bird. the bee, the

tai; take time to watch the trees in
their grandeur, the stretch of mea-

No boy, no girl, can ever come to
be utterly bad who remembers only
love and tenderness and sweetness
as associated with father and mother
in the old-ume home. Give them
manly and womanly example, give
them training, give them the inspi-
ration of devoted lives, give them the
higher deeper things. Do not sare
SO much as to whether you are ac-
cumulating money, so that you can
leave them a fortune. We really e.
lieve that the chances are against that
being a blessing for boy. But leave
them an accumulated fortune of mem
cries and inspirations and examples
and hopes, so that they are rich in
brain and heart and soul.

His Mascot Ring.
Harry Corson Clarke has a mascot
that he wouldn't give up for all the
wealth of the Indies, Klondike and
Nome combined 1t is a curious ring,
and 1t never leaves his hand, waking
or, sleeping. It has a history, but It's
origin no one knows, and probably
never will know. 1t is a broad band
of antique silver. ornamented with a
sinuous snake design and strange
hieroglyphics. Sunk into the band lie
Ceylon cats eye, flanked on either
side with a diamond. It came into
Mr.. Clarke's possession in this wise:
Several years ago John Bookwalter
of Springfield, Ohio, brought from the
old country shipload of antiquities
and curios. As soon as It arrived the
Ladies' Aid Society gained permission
to put the whole collection on exhi-
bition, became the willing victim Of
depleted treasury. Some Of the prom
inent society girls acted as guides"
Mr.. Clarke, who was in the city on
professional visit went to the exhi-
bitioi, became the wiling victim of
oae of the guides, who did" him after
the manner of all guides, society or
otherwise
OF all the curios, however, that at.
tracted the actors attention, none
proved irresistible save the ring
above described, which had fallen dur
ing the process of unwrapping from
the two hundred years or so Of cloth
which swathed the body of one of The
two mummies in the collection.
Whether or not it originally
adorned the hand of the mummy dur
ing life, who could, or can, tell? At
all events its mystery and its beauty
combined aroused mad desire for
possession in the breast Of the come
dian, but neither for love nor yet
money would its owner part with 1t.
When, therefore, Mr.. Clarke visited
Springfield the following season and
the self-same ring was presented to
him, his joy knew no bounds-and
he has regarded it as his mascot ever
since.
