STOP SWEARING

STOP SWEARING
EN- who have become so addicted to the
lMl use of profane words in ordinary con-
versation that they do not realize
II that they swearing to be
pittied; but the young man just be-
ginning to train his tongue around
oaths that even he himself is ashamed of
when in respectable company, is not; on
the contrary he is certainly to- be con-
demned.
No boy said his first cuss
word without experiencing sense of
shame. The tongue, unused to such
language, gives it hestant awkward
expression; and invariably the effort is accom-
panied by blush; as if nature was trying to do its
best to shame and humiliate the offender. The
words seem foreign to the ears of he who gives
them utterance; to others they denote the first
step on the downward sliding scale of manly
versatiOn.
We can speak by the board on this subject be-
cause we have been there. We remember the
time when we laughed and took great pleasure in
listening to man talk who could handle string
of cuss words with distinguished fuency. We
thought it smart; imagined the vocabulary
was greatly strengthened by the use of forceful
at it with the usual result as described above but
the habit grew gradually until arrived at the
point where we became ashamed of ourselves
and after many hard struggle with our in
discreet tongue, we got to the place where
started from; e., where we could be content and
happy by permitting our yea to be yea and our
nay be nay.
An old Ohio river steamboat captain, mighty
L. Ill.
but who, like most others who followed that bust
ness in the early days. was an adept in the
swearing line sat with us one evening as we were
making some graphophone records for our own
amusement. Several of the boys had sung songs
into the horn, which we're reproduced much to the
enjoyment of the old river man. As joke, some
one suggested that Col. john" as we called him,
say something in the horn so that he could hear
his own voice come out in the reproduction. At
ter good bit of urging he consented and took his
place before the instrument ready to Begin when
one of the party purposely pushed the horn rather
hard against his nose, just as the cylinder began
to revolve. The result was that Colonel John
ripped out string of oaths almost long enough to
cover the record. 1t was just what we wanted.
When the reproducing needle was adjusted and
the record began to give forth the profanity it
held the old sat in silence: then rising he put
on his hat and said: Boys, you've taught
lesson. man who would be guilty of using
that kind of language oughtnt to be allowed to
run around with decent people. I'm going home"
And it was lesson; for after that night we
heard Colonel John use any stronger
epithet than DAMN" which he said he only used
as compromise.
The silence rule of the prison gives all OF us
splendid opportunity to Scut OUT the violent
language. Suppose we make up our minds to do
it. Put the bride of responsibility on your
tongue, and if you won't feel better and safer
when you talking with respectable people when
you 60 out.

THE PASSING OF THE TANGO

=. NOTWITHSTANDING the frantic efforts
~ of the dancing masters in the larger cities
to keep up the popularity of the Tango it
is gradually being shamed out of existance
III by right thinking and right living people.
Ill 1t had it's introduction in America in
houses of i'll repute and dance halls Of the
lowest type; than that portion of So
III ciety, which is always ready to grasp
III at innovations bordering as closely to
immortality it conviently can, took it
up, and the dancing masters made capital
of it. When we saw it executed on the
stage year ago, we hadn't the least
idea that young women with any self-respect
could ever be induced to participate in it even at
their own home; but it seems they have thrown
modesty to the winds and are ready to 90 the
limit, unless the bars are put up.
There is no sense in trying to purify city by
suppressing the social evil, if those interested in
the crusade countenance and encourage dances
like the tango, which, as Dr. Morrill, has so plain
ly characterized, is the dance of death, whose
step in due time slides to hell.n

A HOTEL FOR UNEMPLOYED

G., DAWES, who for several years
honorably filled the Office of controller of
the currency of the United States, and
now president of the Central Trust Com
pany of Chicago; has just erected in that
city, hotel for down-and- out men which
will do more good in the up-lift of unfor-
tunate self-respecting mankind, than any
thing in that line so far attempted any
where in this country; and III doing so,
has opened up new avenue in philan-
thropic effort which will no doubt be
emulated by others interested in this
character of charitable work.
