It was the season of Lent, and the
vicar of a certain village church was
solemnly and impressively exhortlng
his congregation to determination,
abstinence, and repentance. The
beadle, who is accustomed to sit be-

the owner of the biggest mouth In the
district. Unfortunately he felt sleepy,

Studying Health Insurance.

The National Civic federation has
instituted inquiries into the methods
in foreign countries of insuring wage
earners against misfortune, and as a
result the social service department
of the federation is considering the
desirability of recommending legisla
ton to provide for compulsory insur.
ance for illness.
A committee has been in London
to study the operation of the national
insurance act of Great Britain. En-.
ployers were asked about the cost
of the insurance and its relation to
business. Wage earners were asked
to give information regarding the ef
fects on wage rates, on the conditions
of employment, and on their general
welfare. Changes in the cost of poor
relief and any reduction in the death
rate from preventable diseases were
investigated.
This general survey will prepare the
way for an investigation by commits
sion next spring, when an effort will
be made to bring together all infor-
nation which will serve social insur.
ance purposes in the United States.

The CHARM

The experience of Motherhood is a trv-

unctly an epoch in their lives. Not one
woman in a hundred is prepared or un-

sell. VI course nearly every woman
nowadays has medical treatment at such
times, but many approach the expert
ence with an organism united for the
trial OF strength, and when it is over
her system has received shock from
which it is hard to recover. Following
right upon this comes the nervous strain
OF caring for the child, and a distinct
change in the mother results.
There is nothing more charming than
happy and healthy mother of children,
and indeed childbirth under the right
conditions need be no hazard to health or
beauty. The unexplainable thing is
that, with all the evidence of shattered
nerves and broken health resulting from
an unprepared condition, and with am
pie time in which to prepare, women
will persist in going blindly to the trial.
Every woman at this time should rely

this interesting Quaker settlement
began late in October, 1856, when,
astride mule, weary and travel
strained, he rode into the little town
of West Branch, halted before it's only
tavern, The Travellers Rest, and from
the proprietor, James Townsend, re-
ceived Quaker welcome which until
his death he never forgot.
"A little over a year after his first
visit to the Springdale neighborhood.
Brown reappeared late in December
1S57-this time with some ten COM
panions and for purposes which he
seemed not anxious to have known.
The men were lodged with a Quaker
William Maxon, about three miles
northeast of the village of Spring
dale, Brown agreeing to give in ex-
change for their keep such of his
teams and wagons as might seem
just and fair. Brown himself was
taken into the home of John H.
Painter, and all were welcomed with
that unfeigned hospitality for which
the Friends have always been known.
During their stay in this pleasant
community many friendships were
formed between Browns. men and the
young people of the surrounding
country; and when the 9th of April,
1858, arrived, the day when these men
were to depart for unknown scenes
and adventures, among those whom
came to bid them farewell scarcely
dry eye could be SEEN"

that mans thoughts are more liable
to bring on dyspepsia than the food
he eats. When a person is cheerful
and hopeful, his stomach can digest
practically any kind of food, while if
he is way down in the dumps. the
simplest food will lie for hours in his
stomach undigested. Anger creates
a poison which is absorbed into the

Is Conscience Safe Guide?
Then arises the question. Is our
conscience safe guide2 Ethics
teach us that il is subjected to great
abuse We must then educate the
conscience. A man is entitled to his
own opinions. Are then any ultimate
eternal Verities or is each man a
measure unto himself?
THE old Puritan code was wrong.
They divided all acts into deeds of
right and wrong. Between the two
they put a line. Their system, how
ever, was all wrong. Today we di-
vide our ethical code into three
standards That which is all wrong,
that which is all right. and a middle
division which may include either
right or wrong. all depending upon
the individual and the circumstances.
But the last phase that a man
must pass through before he is able
to make out his own philosophy Of
life is the belief In the ultimate tri-
umph of right. When belief in that
is reached, so will the unhappy man
become cheerful If he wills it, and
take on a sympathetic attitude to-
