It S Your Business.

And, Margery, SO quiet. so silent,
she bushes 80 easily. does Mar
gerry. Have a care for MargeTy.
She never needed you when she
was little and helpless half so much
as she needs you now, poor girl.
Her feet are set on the very edge of
the swift stream that runs so close,
SO frightfully close, to our own
very doors these days. Make Mar
gery's home her haven and have
Margery's friends there by the doz-
en-, and when the young fellow
comes to ask for Margery be glad
and make her father be glad, too.
It's your business-this business
of the girls, little mother; you can't
escape it, you can't help the respon-
sihility Of it; you must bring ia
Their to his senses, and he'll love you
the better for every time you win
an honest battle for the plain hu-
man rights of your plain human
daughters even against him.
Father isn't a brutal fiend. He's
just a man, that's adjust a self
ish, self centered. tyrannical man.
It's your business to show him the
error Of his ways and TO do it with
a heart full of love and gentle de-
votion. too. for the sake of the
girls VINO are more than life To you
and to him. tOo-When YOU come

with him once and for all-and
then stand by what you say and
stand calmly and with dignity.
Don't fib to him; don't help those
girls to deceive him; it won't do; it
won't do at all; they will deceive
you, too, if you once begin that.
Invite the girl friends to the
house and invite them often. If ia
Their begins to grumble about being
overrun with a fiat full of young
fools, laugh and go right on invlt-
ing. Your house will be lonely
enough soon enough. If father
doesn't know how to get his joy
out of the joy Of others, he'll have
to learn; that's all-or go without
joy most of the time.
There's little Mary all shy laugh
ter and soft allurings. What are
you going to do with little Mary?
Have her meeting men at other
peoples houses, and getting talked
about? Not if you are the right
sort of a mother. You'll have those
men at your own home and you'll
know them. too. and if father isn't
crazy he'll want you to do it when
you really talk it all over with him.
There's Kate, the athletic girl, the
gay, the lively. What about Kate?
Is she going to be ashamed of her
own home and finally make her
own home ashamed of her? Is that
what YOU brought her into the
world for? No, no. Not if you
have to face a very tyIant to get

His Strong Appetites

The man of genius is, of course,
endowed with strong appetites and
emotions and passions as rule.
He is subjected to greater temp
tation than his more prosaic broth
err But just In the degree Of his
genius he is given the brain power
to rule his emotions If he falls by
the wayside he possesses the
strength to rise and go on. His
fall can be understood and for
given: but when he vaunts his po-
sition in the dust and mire de-
claring it to be the privilege ana
right of a genius to dwell there
and when he bids those who are
not in the mire to do him homage
and to consider their own clean
garments as an evidence of Their
lack of temperament" it is as
gushing and pitiable in one.
Talent is very small thlhE
genius itself is small thing Wile"
compared to CHARACTER. Fol
all works of all the arts pass anu
perish. while Character lives rle.

thousands who do the same sort OF
thing which our temperamental
geniuses wish to have regarded as
evidences of special talent.
There is a much larger com
munity of low, ignorant and vicious
beings with whom the "tempera-
mental genius" puts himself on
level when he makes his own
standards than can be found IN
higher walks of life, among the
gifted and great.
