TIE POSITIOH OF TIE RUSSIAN
 SOCIALISTS

''On this account the Russian Social Democracy cannot under any circum- stances consider the conclusion of even a temporary truce with tho Russinu gov ernment. Among us there can be no question of betrayal of our f4ith. On the contrary. we regard it as cur duty to carry on agaiust the Russian govern .ment an unrelenting warfare on the basis of the demands made by the Rus san proletariat during the revolution ary movement of 1905 and renewed since the revival of the movement during the past two years.
 "Our task during this war is to utilize the present crisis to develop the organ izations of the working class and the democracy and to enliQhten the whole people to the end that our demands of 1905 may be the more easily secured.
 After the close of the war there will come time when it will le necessary to develop the forces Of democracy with great rapidity. If then the reactonary power of Russia stands victorious in our path, with increased power and reput- alton, it will constitute the greatest i'm aglnable obstacle to democratic develop ment We regard it as our duty, there fore, to oppose the Russian government the interest of Russian freedom.

Such Are Momsn,a WAYS.

Women viewing another woman's
wedding presents say things which are
liable to be misinterpreted," said a
Chicago detective, who is usually de-
tailed to guard the presents at big
weddings, and other things which no
favorable Interpretation would make
complimentary to the bride or to the
givers. It's the way of the sex, sup.
pose. Now, why is it that the most
common remark of the women who
- inspecting the layout of silver and
other gifts more or less useful is
what lot OF presents she got? OF
course, they vary the remark. What
a lucky girl!' says one, as if she would
like to add, some persons have too
much luck Now, these women do
not mean any harm. It's just their
way of expressing admiration, usually.
But there are others who surely
evince an uncharitable, petty spirit.
They pick up and examine every ar
ticle, and appraise it in loud whispers.
They express voluble wonder as to
whether the silver is solid, and doubt
the genuineness of the cut glass. Even
If they like thing they will decide
that it won't wear well. And 80 the
tongues wag."

What Is Aapplness7

The aim of human life, no doubt, Is
happiness. But after all, what is hap
piness? Efficiency, wealth, material
comfort? Many by their lives do so
affirm; few are cynical enough to say
SO: and on their deathbeds none will
feel so. Not even freedom in itself
brings happiness. Happiness lies in
breadth of heart. And breadth of heart
is that inward freedom which has the
power to understand, feel with, and.
il need be, help others. In breadth OF
heart are founded justice, love. sacri-
fee; without it there would be no spe-
cial meaning to any of our efforts, and
the tale of all human life would be
still no more than that of supremely
gifted animals, many of whose COM
munities are highly efficient, and have
instructive unity founded on expert
euce of it's utility, but none of that
conscious altruism which is without
perception of future benefit to self
and works from sheer recognition OF
it's own beauty.-Atlantic Monthly.

NEVER WAKE SLEEPING BABY
Writer Points Out How Injurious is
Action Too Common With Young
Mothers.

Eating and sleeping are the only
voluntary acts of the young infant,
writes Mrs. e. e. Kellogg in Good
Health Magazine. AS a general rule,
the child should not be awakened from
sleep to be fed; neither should he be
awakened, as many a poor little mite
of humanity is, for the purpose of be-
ing exhibited to interested friends or
relatives.
The physical rights of the little one
demand that he should be allowed to
follow natures plan, which for a child
under one month of age is 20 hours
sleep out of the "a. When he has at
tanned the age of six months, 16 hours
sleep may suffice. Lack of sleep has
a most demoralizing effect upon the
brain and nervous system. The child
at four or five years requires II
hours sleep, and the youth, even at fif-
teen or sixteen years, should sleep
nine or ten hours.
Rest and quiet, as well as sleep.
are a necessity for the young child.
Quick temper and irritability are
often the direct result of exhausted
nerve force.

coino Home to Mother.

Just what / mean by going home
to ones mother in its larger sense is
perhaps little difficult to define. Yet
surely, it must be a very universal
experience. Have We not all at some
time-often following a period of con-
fusion and stress of circumstances
suddenly experienced that deep sense
of finding ourselves where we be-
longed? A sense of restfulness, Of
homecoming, of general -ightness and
well-being? It is sloughing of OF
the nonessential and the trivial and q
shifting of the spirit into deeper and
simpler channels; pause, when in
the midst OF all this mad dance OF
time and circumstance one gets a sud

The close connection which exists
between the heart and the kidneys is

kidneys are diseased, arterial tension
is increased and the heart functions
are attacked. When the kidneys no

are spent travelling on sledge

In TH[ I'M TWILIGHT
CHASTISER OF CAPITALISTS

Frank P. Walsh, as chairman of

of capitalists. Persons who like
radical utterances applauded aim as

folk OF the more conservative sort

Mr. Walsh. who comes from Kan.
sas City, Mo, was appointed as one
of the three representative OF the
public, the other two groups in the
commission representing the employ
ers and the employees. Walsh was
the only one who jumped out of his
class in the findings of the commits
sion. He stood with the three labor
members in the main report of the
commission assailing capitalism.
Although Walsh went with the la
Dor men, he is not numbered with the
proletariat in Kansas City. He owns
and lives in one of the finest houses
