of Calvary, Jesus Christ. Hear me. There

clothes we pay tribute to the Jew. Jews
control the wholesale and retail tailor

saw a Jew among the hoboes, and a

Jew for crime paid this tribute to the
Hebrew race: For the 81 years | have
been on the bench you are the first rep
resentative of that race that have ever
been called upon to sentence for crime
All hail the Jewl They are Gods chosen
people, and with the Jew God is going
to save this world.
Anarchy is not born In the anarchistlc
riots of the Haymarket. 1t Is klndled in

Fear me! Forty-six million farmers in
this country are being taught how to take
care of the hog, what slop to feed him,
how to feed him to add few extra pounds
to his flesh and an extra curl to his tail.
And we have got In this country % uni
versities that have O department for the
study of the American hog, and only one
university that has department for the
study of the American boy, and that is
Clark University at Worcester, Mass. In
other words we think more of stopping
and feeding the hog than of feeding and
training the boy and keeping him out of
hell. We are going daffy over money. We
are commercially crazy.
IDLE MOTHER CURSE
"If boy will not obey his father and
mother he will not obey his social and
moral law. II he won't obey you in your
home. it is out of such that anarchists,
nihilists, bomb-throwers and cutthroats
are had. One of the danger signs of our
times is the curse of the idle mother.
Many a woman never darns a stocking,
never piece of hemstitching on a hand
kerchief, never put any lace or insertion
on thing; they manage to drag their old
carcasses around, and If they ever go out,
1t Is to some entertainment, some bridge
whist party, some Dutch lunch, or out to
some opera, and out to some fashionable
dressmaker or some fashionable millIner-
that eternal routine of bridge whist, Dress
milliners; they beat that little
path. They never so out to help the poor;
they never try TO do anything in the
homes of squalor or want; they never try
to bridge the chasm and meet the fellow
with the dinner bucket. If he goes to
church, he thinks they are too stuck up
great, big stifts. and he tells them to go
plumb to -.
And If you die and they keep 1t out
of the newspapers, no one will ever miss
you. Not even your husband, only when |
he gets your millinery bill showed under |
his nose.
II tell you what is the matter with |
you mothers You are neglecting your
home for the lodge, for your clubs, for |
your literaries and your society. You
ought to fit yourselves to be the intel |
lectual companions OF your } children;
make companions out of your children |
instead of letting the saloon get them. !
You should spend more time with your |
children The learning OF the school and |
college will soon fade out of the minds |
of the girl and boy, but what they learn /

gone. There are few things l think more
important than conversation. Think OF |
the good we could do in our home or the
pain we can give with our tongues. Low
Ing conversation is a great panacea many
a time. In many home there is none.
There is no regretful goodby when the
children go to school, no affeCttonats
greeting when they come home, no fire.
