Dear Mrs. Thompson: The young
people come TO you for counsel. Will
you also listen 10 an old woman Here
is my tale OF woe:
We have telephone in the house
and are always glad 10 oblige the
aeighbors who ask 10 use it But one
party. a girl OF 16, has made herself
= nuisance. There is scarcely day
that she does not come in and call
up some young man, making an APP
pointment TO meet him, or asking him
To her home. IL II were one pnrticu-
lar fellow should not care. but there
are several. Some OF them are boys
Of her own age, some considerably
older. One OF them whom l know per-
sonally is old enough TO be her father.
She never calls up girl friends. In
fact. she does not seem 10 have any
outside her relatives. l do not wish
20 be considered rude or selfish, but
I have a young daughter and / feel
this is a poor example to put before
her. Now. do you think that a girl
who cares anything about her reputa-
ton will do as she does? And with
you tell me what to do under the
circumstaRcess And accept the
thanks OF MOTHER.
The hardest but most effectual thing
would be 10 tell the girls mother. II
you yourself talked TO the girl she
would probably merely stop using your
phone. but phone elsewhere; while. If
you tell her mother the result may be
far reaching and the girl made 10 see
the mistake she Is making do think
that a girl can value her reputation
and still do things you have mention
ed. She is not taught at home that it !
IS wrong.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am young 1
married woman and have two child !
rem. Ny husband has a very bad tenn |
per and never will change his mind /
when he knows he Is in the wrong. I 1
have always tried 20 love him and do I
as he wishes me 10, but it seems I |
cannot please him. He seems 10 think !
enough OF me, but somehow I feel dis
couraged and am losing all my love for /
him. When ! go TO bed at night can
not sleep for thinking of my former
engagements and wonder If ! could |
have been happier with someone else.

treme kindness and true worth could
be the most highly appreciated. She

him, nv first duty shan be to do what
1 can to help the unfortunate and the
poor. You want prosperity and you
can only get that prosperity through
the republican party Of the nation.
Last year the east came together solid
for the republican party. Penhsylva-
mia with Penrose beat his two oppo-
nents; 50 did Virginia; 30 did Missouri.
But no contest was watched with more
interest than the political contest Of
Chicago. Then the eyes Of the nation
became jubilant over the signs that the
future would give rs q republican con-
gress, q republican state and a repub-
liean nation, with q protective tariff.
But the big men win not wait for 1916,
for the already confidence established
by the unity Of the republican prin-
cipals win start the wheels Of industry
with added prosperity. say this be-
cause before the election only 100000
shares of stock were sold upon the
stock exchange Of New York, which is
the nervous pulse Of the nation, and
the very day after the election when
that large majority of $4,000 became
known, over LOO, 900 shares were sold.
I do reiterate to what I said to you
in the campaign, shall not be un-
grateful to you for your loyal support.
We have got our peg of ambition
driven very high, and if we don't get
to it we win have accomplished some
thing. You have indicated to the peo-
pie that you were on the square, and
I promise you that you win find Bill
Thompson on the square with you"

Other addresses were made by the
Hon. Edward h. Norris, Hon. s. A. T.
Watkins, q prominent Colored demo
erat, the Hon. alderman elect Oscar
DePriest and Senator Samuel Ettels6n.
The main feature of the entire pro-
eeeding was the statutory pose Of big
Bill the mayor and the splendid ply
sique Of Oscar DePriest, both athletic
in their manly development, elasping
hands in the grasp Of friends made so
by these historical words, al have told
you of the greatest mayor we ever
had. Now, Commodore, I want you be-
fore Won 90 70 CRASH the hand of the

PAINLESS CHILDBIRTH.
BY DR.. W. A. Driver.

By DR.. W. A. Driver.
Twilight sleep is the euphonious
name by which painless childbirth is
called in the lay press of today. While
the medical profession in America has
a large number of wide-awake, pro-
gressive doctors who have been using
combinations of drugs for ten years
to produce painless childbirth, it re-
manned for a German to get the credit.
It is the old, old story that a prophet
is not without honor except in his own
country and among his own people.
The great numbers Of doctors using
the painless method here for years
were modest and consequently were as
founded when the enterprising Frei-
burg doctor named a domifeation of
our well known painless childbirth
dammersehlaf, meaning twilight sleep.
1t is not necessary to go to Ger
many (as many Of the rich prospective
mothers were doing prior to the great
war now raging to secure painless Ia
Dor. Most of our physicians at home
have been aware Of the excellent and
safe and sane method which has been
used all over this country for a de-
eade; not only have they been aware
of its existence, but believe most of
them have been using the triple COM
bination known to all who read the
medical journals. And it might be re-
assuring to a patient public to say no
doctor can escape reading the medical
journals. The publishers are too en-
terprising to permit a doctor to be
without the light of medical literature.
The method of producing painless
motherhood, as American doctors have
praetieed it for over ten years, is so
simple that it requires no instrument
to administer it. It does not even re-
quire a hypodermie needle; the patient
holds the medicine in the mouth from
whence it is absorbed by the mucous
membrane. This is a boon to the poor
who cannot afford the expense Of hos
pital accommodation or the expense in
eident to the use Of cumbersome para
phernalia.
The press has heralded the fact far
and wide that this advance in medicine
is one of the greatest in the whole
grand array Of medical achievement.
Childbirth has verify been robbed of
its sting and science has the victory.
But it is an effort to make the public
believe it. Mothers who have tried it
say they viii always have the doctor
apply the painless method, because il
is perfectly safe and eminently better
than the old way Of intense and indie
seribable suffering which has often left
and death in its path. Women
who have had both the old and the
new way Of obstetrics, say they regard
twilight sleep as one Of the greatest
blessings to womankind and that it
must be the method Of any obstetrieian
whom they employ in future. The

guage of a noted contemporary, We
have a thermometer to determine the
amount Of temperature, but We have
no aesthesiOmeter to determine pain
We must then gauge the amount Of

we are attending. We are not al
equal in the presence of pain. Eseh
case is a law unto itself. We must not
let them suffer pain but We must No.

also called painless childbirth has re7p

women used to suffer, but they cause

PREPAREDNESS
By Benjamin A. Browning.

BY Benjamin A. Browning.
No matter. what we undertake to do
in life, we have to first fit ourselves
for the occasion. A musician has to
practice. An athlete has to train, and
teacher has to learn Although every
one cannot be q professional, or does
not care TO be, nevertheless they have
certain duties and responsibilities rest
ing on their shoulders; each citizen
owes some time and effort to his state.
Some Of life's burdens are tremen-
dous and difficult to handle, but the
people who are idle dreamers and in
different to their career and destiny
and void Of energy, ambition, physical
and moral courage win never master
the obstacles and vieissitudes that con-
front them. But he who is master Of
his own destiny and Trainer of his own
career is one who has realized the re-
quirements of peace and comfort and
has acted according to those laws by
preparing himself for the duties of life.
One Of the things we have to look
out for is that we do not fan victims
Of encouragement. Do not give up
hope. Cling to the spirit Of progress
iveness.
One is often confronted with such
statements, "why should Colored
person try to do this and be that; 20
through college, then have to do porter
work or not even get q good job, so
one might as well not try" This is
entirely the wrong attitude to take.
We are told IN the Bible to ''Be pre-
pared for We knoWeth not the day nor
the hour that the Son of Man eometh, -
and I say, Be prepared, for we knoweth
not the day nor the hour nor to whom
opportunity eomsth first, for it knows
no race, no creed, nor Is It prejudice;
it is blind and knows only human be-
ings, 50 be ready to receive It when #
comes. It Is to be realized that the
various Disadvantages Of the Negro are
sufficient to dishearten the young peo-
pie, and IL is TO them that I make my
plea, fight hard. Those. who are not |
fighting, enlist, because the future Of
the Negro depends upon the young peo-
pie of today, and the only hope Of Vic
sory is for the young people Of this day
10 start, If not already, preparing to
champion the cause Of the Black race.
It Is glorious thing to be able 20
stand before the universe after one has
lifted himself for life's duties through
preparation and truthfully say, nly
conscience is my shepherd; I shan not
ialter. It maketh me the recipient Of
happiness and comfort; IL leadeth me
reside lofty ideals; It sustains my
lealth and vigor; It lsadsth ne through
he realms Of righteousness for my fell
oW beings sake.
