Mrs. Morris said her baby was
stricken with Group. She start

as she went out her front door
she met a masked man who or
dered her to keep quiet at the
risk Of her life. She screamed
"My baby is dying, | am going

robber, dropping u revolver in
his pocket.
Mrs. Morris, frightened, led
him back into the louise. He
asked for vinegar, sugar and wa

which he forced down the IN.
fant's throat. Then he rubbed
olive oil on the chiId's chest and
worked and worked for an hour
before he told the mother it was
out Of danger.
"You must have a baby your

Farmers Letter.
BY CAPT. T. F. PECK
Al PLACE FOR TIE FAR
MER,S BOY,

farmer's asking his wife about
Their son, who is fast becoming
young man and who will at al
~ ,ss any time, take notion"
to leave the farm and go to Il e
city in search of his fortune.
What is it that drives him
away from his country home?
What is it that makes him at
m lment's notice pack his few
belongings, cast farewell look
at the old place, turn the hill
and become lost in the great out.
81 le? What is it that lures him
t, IAN easy life" over there in
the city where all men live in
luxury and none have to toll as
he has toiled for years, yes, ever
since he can remember? 1t is
not the boys fault, nor is it
really the boy himself. that
makes him leaYe the farm just
when he needs it most aud when
it needs him equally as bad. 1t
la the cold, bare fact that to him
the farm means only hard, hard
work, little rest on Sunday,
and then hard work again, that
drives him off. He is hungry,
not physically, but mentally,
craving for future-as to what
he cares little, but it must be a
future-and so far he has not
found any outlook for future
there between the pillow handles.
He just goes along from day to
day blowing the corn, hoeing the
cotton and thinking, thinking,
thinklng-growing as he works,
growing in ideals, growing into
manhood and allowing natures
new ideals to steal upon him.
He says nothing for he has nc
one to say it to. Father is toe
deeply engaged in figuring out
this thing and doing that thing
to think of stopping, even after
supper, to give his son thought
or word. Oh, yes, he thinks of
his son too, in his quiet mo-
ments, but somehow, he doesn't
seem to fully understand just
why his son does not seem to
take the interest in the place
that he used to, and puts it off
reminding himself that he too,
had his troubles as a young man
and conquered them, and SO
must his boy.
Now that is Just where the
trouble lies, and until we enroll
papa aud mama in one firmly
united movement for the good Of
their son, until they decide to
examine his case, pronounce it
curable and then set about the
curing of it, and until they do
begin to apply these remedies,
they should not be surprised if
their son should get up some
morning and tell them that he
believes he will go to the city
and try to make place for him.
self in the world.
No. No! A thousand times
no. His place is at home and
he must be kept there if our
country is to live and grow
strong We have far too many
wrecks filling our cutters and
jails and penitentiaries now
without inviting the last of the
good blood into the same condi.
ton. Keep that boy at home;
keep him there if it takes an OK
team. We'll howf" some one
asks. To that We will answer,
why just keep him there. !"
Look down INTO the inner soul of
that boy, read what is written
there, answer his natural and
perfectly normal pleadings for a
larger life and you have solved
the problem. Just as sure as
fate the time will come when he
no longer will care solely for the
creek on Sup day, when he will
20 longer think with his father
