BE Careful What You Say.

In speaking OF another's faults
Pray don't forget your own;
Remember, those with homesof glass
Should never throw stone,
If we had nothing else to do
But talk of those that sin.
It's better we commence at home
And from that point begin.
We have no right to judge a man
Until he's fairly tried,
Should we not like his company,
We know the world is wide.
Some may have faults and who
has not
The old as we'll as young;
Perhaps we may for aught we know
Have fifty to their one
I'll tell you of a better plan
And find it works quite well;
To try my own defects to cure
Before of others tell.
And though | sometimes hope to be
No worse than some | know
My own short comings bid me let
Theafaults of others 90.
Then let us ali when we commence
To Islander friend or foe,
Thinksso the harm one word may do
To those we little know.
Remember, curses. something like
Our chickens "roost at home!"
Don't speak of others faults until
We have none of our own.

German Thorouahness.

Regardless of ones Sympathies
OccasiODed by heredity or by preju.
dice, all must admit that Germany
is, has been and will continue to be
a great nation. The masses of the
soldiers whether they be German,
French, English or Russian, a e
lighting simply because their coun-
try is at war and not because they
like to Stay their fellOw-men. If
left to the men behind the guns
there never would have been any
war. But in war as we'll as in
peace Germany has demonstrated
her thorOughness. Her army is the
most marvellous fighting machine
the world has ever seen or even
dreamed of. However, it is not on
ly as soldiers that the Germans
stand out so pre-eminently, but in
peaceful pursuits. The great poets
and musicians of Germany rank at
the head. In the colleges and uni
versities of Germany many of Amer
ica's greatest scientists have OBJ
tanned their knowledge and have
been moulded into thoroughness. In
Germany there is no slovenliness in
business of any kind. The German
cities are the worlds models and
German manufactures have cap
tured many of the worlds most de-
sirable markets, and all because of
the thoroughness of the business
training of the men of commerce.
1t is puerlle for the people of the
warning nations to think of boy
cOtting German literature, or art or
manufactures after the war is end
ed. The Germany of Goethe, of
Schiller and of all the great scien-
lists and artisans as well as of the
poets will shine in the future as in
the past, no matter how the awful
struggle may termiuate.-National

Death

Hunting Father When He Met
Death
William Parry, who was released
from Alton, ILL.,, Jail so he might
search for his father and $4,000 said
to have been left him, died penni-
less in Mexico, Mo, recently, says
the st. Louis Republic.
He had been jail on a charge of
attempting to kidnap his baby from
its mother.
Dying from typhoid fever, alone
and among strangers, William Par
ry, of Alton, ILL.,, was found in the
local railroad yards. one night re-
cent?, after he had weakly at
tempted to get on a freight train
only TO be thrown beneath the cars
to escape death miraculOusly
through the timely aid of witness
to his accident ...
From clippings found upon his
clothing, after his death at the hos
pital, Parry had led the life of a
tioater and he and the police were
no strangers. Parry is dead God
rest his ashes but lis life is a les
son worth notice to every youth
who seriou ,ly considers the call of
the wanderlust that comes to some
every time box car passes with
an open door.
He was game" as the world sees
it, for to the last he wanted to 90
home. And it was for the fulfill
ment of this desire that he came
near dying beneath the wheels of a
freight car His might have been
a life of usefulness rather than of a
parasite. Death might have come
in the midst of loved ones, with
peaceful resignation to the will of
Fate and with a mind and heart
spiritually prepared.
