"HERE was great excitement one
day in the palace of tho King OF
Woodland. for the golden box In
which the beautiful Princess May
kept her jewels was lost. All the lords

every pebble.

who came walking down the path with
stately tread. THE king says that to
the one who finds the box of jewels he
will give 10000 pounds in gold"
Under a rose bush lay a little page
named Roland. His duties were to walt
on the princess, 10 take her dog out for
a walk. and to ride by her side when
she went on her daily spin through the
park. He was a handsome lad. and his
rich clothing of purple and silver titted
his shapely limbs nicely. On his cap
sparkled a great diamond, which clasp
ed the noding plume.
II think can find the Jewel box" he
whispered to himself, as he lazily
watched the clouds sailing by. Il will

princess. After a while 1 will be the

trouble to search. Presently a curly
head was poked under the bush. It was
Ivan. a cousin to Roland. But Ivan.
who was an orphan, was poor and
worked in the kings garden. and Ro-

Ivan had q brave heart and good sense
and did his work well

Roland sprang up in temper and
aimed a blow at Ivan, but the latter
was too quick to be hit. Stepping aside,
he struck swiftly at Roland. and the

Honor Thy Son and Daughter

tonOr thy father and thy mother, tnat
thy Nays may be prolonged in the land
which, the Lord thy God giveth thee
So runs the commandment 1t is good
and is approved by the experience. of the
aaes.
But so is its converse-honor thy son
and thy daughter, that their days may
be long in the land in which they We're
born that their days may be- free from
the reproach of unworthy parentage.
Not long ago there was state iegis-
lator who took to the wrong path He
hearkened to the voice of allurement
and accepted money wrongfully. The
state sent him to the penitentiary.
In his home sat a son. young man
of 10. The shame of his fathers con-
yiction weighed on him. He could not
face his. friends and neignbors. He could
not bear to be pointed out as the son of
the man who had betrayed a trust.
So one night he shot himself dead
None of the family could give any
reason for the shooting" the news report
said st
Life spread itself before this young man
overcast by a fearful cloud. His own
shame he might have lived down, but his
fathers was too heavy for him to bear.
There is lesson here for all fathers
and mothers. Great as is the duty which
the children owe to the authors of their
being, equally great is the duty of the
parents toward their children. They owe
them, besides proper support in their
early, tender, helpless years and the edu-
cation that shall fit them for life, the
remembrance of parents lives honestly
and decently lived, that the sons and
daughters may face life with the heritage
of a good name.
For the childrens sake"
What stories of sef-sacrifice, of, toll
of endeavor might not be compiled under
that title If all We're known. All honor
to the fathers and mothers who live those
stories.
Let the selfish, careless, unheeding par
emit beware lest his sins be visited on
his offspring, as the good book warns.
And not alone the good book. Here
Is what Juvenal. the pagan satirist, says:
Let naught which modest eyes or ears
would shun
Approach the precincts that protect thy
son.
Far be the revel from they halls away
And of carousing guests the wanton lay.
HIS child's unsullied purity demands
The deepest reverence at parents
hands.
Quit for his sake thy pleasant vice in
time,
Nor plunge thy offspring In the lore of
crime

Stick-to-it-iyeness


We all know The man who could do
good work--if he would
| He abounds in every line of human
endeavor. He Is not exactly careless
or lacking In ambition, for often he works
by fits and starts
He doesn't last.
|. He will not stick at anything long
enough to accomplish good results or
to do all that he could He is often
a procrastinator, putting off today's task
until tomorrow. He fails to realize that
the ease of doing thing decreases by
geometrical progression as 1t is put off,
that is tomorrow it is twice as hard as
1t is today, the next day 1t will be four
times as difficult. the following day eight
times. and so on until 1t becomes impes-
sible.
Some one asked Anthony Trollope, the
novelist whose works were very popular,
few decades ago and are still read
by many, for his recipe for getting
through so much work.
THE best recipe l know for novel writ
Ing" said Throllope, lis a patch of cob
bler's wax on the seat of my chair And
take great pains to sit upon it,
He possessed the secret of stick-to-it-
iveness.
DR.. johnson said, "A man may write
at any time if he will set himself dog
gedly to it," Same idea as Throllope's,
you see, but not expressed SO figura-
lively.
And man may not only write, but
do anything else thatiis Within the com
pass OF his powers il he Will set fhimself
doggedly to it.
1t is perseverance that counts not
genius. Some of the wisest of men have
expressed disbelief in the inspiration that
goes generally by the name of genius.
For example. Edison said that in his opin-
ion genius is one-tenth inspiration and
nine-tenths perspiration. He is shining
example of wonderful success achieved
by hard work, although, of course with
the endowment of tremendous brain
power
There is slang phrase which expresses
the idea of perseverance as we'll, per-
haps, as any short formula can. 1t IS:
Go to It,
If you have anything to do that is
worth doing. go to it.
And after you have gone to it and
you find that it takes longer than you
thought at the outset

Is still read and is accounted among the
worlds great storehouses of wisdom.
How soothingly his words fall on the
ear Of the person impatient with In
feriority and wrongdoing!
Let US try to analyze them.
First BE. not angry that you cannot
make others what you wish them to be-
Some of us have wished that we could
remold the world nearer to the hearts
desire, as Omar Khayyam says and
many Of US have desired TO work a change
in those about us.
When we are embittered by their oppo-
sition or Infatuated by their stupidity.
what would we not give to be able to
make them what we wish them to be!
How easy 1t would be If we could only
make them see things as we view them
or convince them that we are in the right
and they are in the wrong
So certain are we of ourselvesl
There Is the self confidence that is
good. for 1t lends strength to the arm
and keeness to the brain in doing the
work that must be done. Such Is the
self reliance that is founded on the strong
rock OF consciousness of right. No storms
of opposition should be permitted to
shake 1t.
But there is also the self confidence
which is mistaken and which is merely
stubbornness in the wrong. That is the
spirit which makes wish to make
others what we want them to be. heed
less of our own shortcomings.
For it 1t not true that We cannot make
ourselves what we wish to be?
We know well what Wa should like
to be, but we permit our limitations to
bar the way. We know for example.
that the attainment of certain end re-
quires the exercise OF industry and un-
remttting effort, but we 90 in our old.
slotfful, unavailing way-until the golden
time of opportunity Is no more.
We see the light of righteousness and
willfully blind ourselves to it. That is
the weakness of cur human nature.
We should not be angry, therefore.
because we cannot remodel the world
and its conditions and our neghbors to
suit ourselves. since in our hearts We
know that 1t is hard to bring ourselves
to make progress toward the goal of per-
lection which lies before us all.
