HAPPIEST MAN is HONEST.
He Has No Bad Habits and So He Is
Always Prosperous.
(From Ohio State Journal

(trom ONO State Journal
We have noticed the happiest man
many time. He works for his living
and he gets a good one. One thing
we notice is he is a man of fine habits
doesn't squander a cent on liquor, to-
bacco or betting. He saves his money
and is getting ready to buy some pro-
pcrty. He loves his home. plays with
the children, reads good books and
keeps company with his wife. Be
cause of his good habits he saves a
little which will give him a chance to
make an investment
And then there is another thing
he is reliable man. He does good
work. He will not smooth over bad
work. He is honest in whatever he
does. Every dollar he gets represents
just that much of honest labor. 1t is
this, largely, that makes him prosper
Gus and happy Water keeps its own
level, and so does conduct and chara-
cter and prosperity If man is mean
and low, so will the consequences be.
He cannot be one thing and his ex-
perience another. A low lived man
may grow rich and happy, but it will
not be for long Anybody can tell
what's the matter with man if he is
with him a day; he will soon see il

SCoLDING IS OUT OF DATE.
Better Dispositions Make Handsomer
School Teachers.
(Wm. McAndrew in Woman's
MapaZine)


MagaZine.)
We have seen revolution in the
care of children When Tolstoy de-
clares that there are no circumstances
in which we may treat human beings
without affection, we see that this in
cludes occasions when children are
disobedient and insulting.
When Eli Rapp, schoolmaster, in
sists that the teacher must be pleas
ant when furnishing, loving when
licking" we realize what an overturn
has come. An Italian woman gets a
nod of appreciation from teachers of
four nations when she spreads her
Montessorian doctrine of Punishment
of the scold from the school.
1t looks as though the time were
coming when teacher who employed
the wasteful, harmful, brutalizing in
fuence of temper would be driven
from the company of children as if
afflicted with a contagious disease.
The "schoolma'a am face" formed by
a construction of the scolding muscles
is fast disappearing. The look of
cheerful affection has been cultivated
as a professional asset to such a de-
gree that our school women have
grown increasingly handsome.
The finest that human nature can
provide should be given to the child
rem who sit FIVE hours day in front
of teacher, listening to her voice and
absorbing her manner For the kind
ness, the justice, the hrmness of one
teacher can mold the character and
set the standards of thousand boys
and girls.
