as he had gained the favors he
sought
The sexual fascination is a pow
erful one, but that alone never
kept a man and a woman happy
comrades and constant lovers for
life.
There must be other attrac-
tons; other interests; other ties.
Most important of all, there
must be mutual respect and abso-
lutte confidence.
There must be a strong and
beautiful foundation of friendship
in every marriage which proves
happy and lastingly sympathetic.
About this foundation passion
flowers will grow and Irvine; but
when autumn winds blow and
frosts come, and the vines perish,
the strong, beautiful foundation
remains.
This man is seeking to Irvine
vines and flowers about the frag-
lie trellis of youth, and the first
wind will cast it all to earth and
there will be nothing left.
And the vines he seeks to train
about this trellis are poison ivy.
Let the girl beware of such
lover. He is not her friend. He
is her worst enemy. He does not
love her. He loves only his own
appetites and passions. The man
who really loves a girl guards her,
not only from all men, but from
himself
He does not despoil what is his
own. He does not strip the flow
ers from his own beautiful plants.
Better die of loneliness and sor-
row than to yield to such a selfish
and unworthy lover.

Mothers! WarnYOur Girls of Lies Lures

TT is more than probable that
many parents of young girls
will read this article and
consider it an improper" subject
for discussion.
And it is more than probable
that several of these daughters
will read it and regard it as their
own experience, and wonder how
their secret became known.
This one young woman whose
story is given here has arrived at
a manageable age and is be-
trothed to the man of her choice.
He is several years her senior,
but says he will not be in a posi-
ton to marry and establish a
home for two years.
He has given the girl a ring,
and declares he is most anxious
to make her his wife.
Meantime, he asks her to con-
slider herself his wife in reality
now, and to show her confidence
in him by giving him all the priv
ileges of that holy state.
He assures her that her refusal
is proof that she does not really
love and trust him; that she
doubts his honor and his word
He also assures her that all en-
gagged people regard the matter
from his standpoint, and that her
conduct is prudish and silly.
All over the world such men
are to be found.
1t is their method Of testing the
weaker sex.
In many small country towns,
where American girls are I'M
chaperoned and unprotected by
foolish parents, and allowed to go
about freely with their admirers,
Lothario of this order is not
infrequently able to engage sew
eral trusting girls at one time,
under strict VOWS of secrecy ana
on the plea that financial or fam
lily circumstances are such that
marriage is out of the question
for years TO come.
This type of man almost inva-
riably demands the full conf
dence and proof of love ana
trust" as he terms it, of each of
his secret tiancees.
And, as rule, he never mar
ries any one of them.
He disappears from the town
after a time and establishes HIM
self in pastures new.
The Rev. Mr.. Richeson was a
man Of this type, but he paid for
his amusement in the electric
chair.

Gospel of Play
From EDWIN MARKHAM.

WYE have long heard the gos-
wv pei of work, and now
comes the equally valid
gospel Of play. 1.-THE Church and
the Young Mans Game" is the
title of a book from Doran's,
written by f. J. Mines, presi
dent of the National Indoor Game
Association.
The craving for, amusement"
says Karl Gross, in THE Play of
Man" "is as fundamental and ir-
resistible rs the craving for food.
We come into the world with two
primary instincts. hunger and
playfulness. Which antedates the
other is not certain. But in the
course of human evolution the
exercise of the game-impulse has
had a large coordination between
mans physical and mental ma
lures. Moreover, this co-ordina-
tion-or, more specifically, the
subsection of the body to human
volition-furnishes the basis of
morality.
"A prompt muscular response
to volition is the basis of self
control and self-control is
the basis of character. That
is to say, games are prep
aration for life. Long prior to
any sense of obligation toward
work the child gets his elemen-
tary ideas of form and color,
cause and effect, pain and pleas
ure, as well as his sense of rela-
tionship, justice and integrity,
through play activities. We learn
to live by play. and that, too,
from ideal methods of instruction.
Contrary to the old traditional
opinion, more rapid, vigorous and
symmetrical development takes
place under the stimulus of play
than under that of toll. The only
exception to this is that in which
the task is so fittingly adapted as
to become itself form of pleas
ure or actual amusement. Phil
lips Brooks said: It's fun to be
minister
Work is a necessity; play is a
pleasure. Work is endured; play
is enjoyed. The joy of work eX-
lists rarely, save in the minds of
poets and dreamers, who have
never experienced the drudgery
Of common labor. John Ruskin
may sing of our pleasure grow
ing out of our work like the color
petals from a fruitful flower
But as we see it down on earth
in the city, for instance-as we
observe it among the hands on
the farm the paddles on the
railroad. or among the clerks and
office force of business in the
monotonouS grind. of everlasting
toll, work would not be tolerated
were 1t not the only means of get
ting the necessities of life."

Peace of AmienS
BY REV. T. B. GREGORY.

TT was one hundred and twelve
years ago-OctOber j, 1901
that the preliminary articles
of peace between England and
France We're signed in the city of
London; and the defnitive treaty
was subscribed at Amiens on the
27th of March following.
Europe rejoiced at the termina-
ton of the long and bitter strug-
gle, but to those on the inside the
peace was not worth the paper it
was written on, and the sequel
proved that the fears of the cabi-
nets were only too well grounded.
The First Consul was only
playing for time and never in
tended to allow a piece of parch-
ment to stand between him and
the goal of his inordinate ambi-
ton. The ink with which the
treaty was written was hardly
dry when Napoleon began his ag-
gressions. Piedmont was an
neXed, as was also the Island of
Elba; Switzerland was occupied
and Holland was bullied into sub
serviency to France. When Eng
land protested, Napoleon insulted
her envoy and dared her to re-
sent his action, England's an
swer came on May IS, 1903, in the
shape of a declaration of war-a
war that was to last, with a brief
respite, until 1915.

Unity of Effort.

The following from the Lankin Re.
porter hits the nail squarely on the
head and applies equ. lily we'll to every
community in North Dakota, large or
small. The Reporter says:
"Town and Country people together
can do a great deal for their commu.
nifty as . whole that neither could do
alone.
Better by far that all the money and
efforts of our community be combined
and concentrated in producing the
highest efficiency in community at.

scattered as to result in mediocrity or
total failure.
1.-THE farmer must give his undivid-
ed support to the town institutions to
which he looks for service of any kind;
the merchant, also, in planning and
management of village institutions,
must give consideration to the needs
and wishes of the farmer.
"Our public institutions must be SO
organized and SO conducted as to
merit and receive the undivided sup.
port and patronage of the entire pop
u alton. as we'll as to serve with equal
effectiveness all members of the com
munity.

A NOVEL contest was pulled of at
~ Sharpsburg, Pa, the other day
when a beautifully be-plumed and be-
ribboned ladies' hat, valued at S25,
was hung on the topmost bough of a
very tall tree, and was offered as a
prize to the first female who dared to
shin up and get it. Tbs temptation
was too great to be resisted BY any
born woman, and several of the la
dies made desperate tries without sue
cess, when finally tn" crowning glory'
vas plucked by Mrs. Meta Walker, an
old married woman of 300 pounds
weight, who fairly paralyzed the
squirrels by the ~alacrity with she
mounted aloft, snatched up the Gov
eted treasure, and with a proud shout
of ''Eureka!" etc., gracefully slid
back to terra arma. 1t is needless to
add that Mrs. Walker was not ham.

narrow style of skirt.
