NOT ENOUGH CHILDREN

ever receive the proper balance of food
to sufficiently nourish both body and
brain during the growing period when
rature's demands are greater than in
mature life. This is shown in so many
pale faces, lean bodies, frequent colds,
aud lack of ambition.
For all such children we say with
uninistakable earnestness: They need
Scott Emulsion, and need it now. 1t
possesses in concentrated form the very
TODD elements to enrich their blood. 1t
changes weakness to strength; it makes
hem sturdy and strong. No alcohol.

AS we passed along the street
on a recent Sunday we counted
twenty-seven young men, most
of them in their teens, just bud
ding into manhood, lettering
their time away. AS we looked
into their faces, many Of them
lighted up by the beacon rays
of a poor cigar or the penicious
cigarette. we recognize them as
young men blessed with comfor-
table homes, indulgent parents
and loving sisters. We ask our
selves, why it is? Why do these
young men perfer the unclean
resorts, comfortless streets and
mixed society to the upholstered
chair, the pleasant and comfor-
table surroundings Of the fani-
~ circle at home?
, For the best and deepest en-
joyments that come to US. little
we realize how much is due to
smiles. Savages do not smile;
coarse. brutal cruel men may
laugh, but they seldom smile.
The aflUence, the benediction,
the radiance, which "Fills the
silence like a speech" is the smile
of q full appreciative heart.

Nothing to be envied is wo-
mans life from beginning to
end.
In girlhood, woman's life is
often temptation, and too often
destruction. In motherhood it
is anxiety and often neglect. In
old age it is absolute neglect and
dull monoteny.
Do not envy the life Of wo-
man, and do not wonder that the
intelligent among women are
striving to change conditions, to
get the right to share in govern
ment, and have something to say
about what shall be done with
them during girlhood, married
life and old age.
First flattered and in danger,
then married and neglected, then
old and ignored-not pleasant
program. But it is the program
of the lives of more than half of
al the women.
No wonder they are tired of
the system which puts all the
Glove, homer and obey" at the
clergyman's left and none at his
right, as he pronounces the
words that tie the woman fast
and tie the man NOT AT ALL.

DUTY PIaInest at First slaht.

There is nothing like the first
glance we get at duty. before there
has been any special pleading of our
affections or inclinations. Duty is
never uncertain at first. 1t is only
after we have got involved in the
mazes and sophistries Of wishing that
things are otherwise than they are,
that it seems indistinct. Considering
duty is often explaining it away.

 less Hanging.

ATLANTA, August 19.-The gov ernment has offered reward of five hundred dollars for the identification of each and every man who took part in the lynching of Leo Frank. The large offer is taken to mean that the government has decided to go to ex- tremes to bring the guilty parties to justice although it is very doubtful that any jury in Georgia would dare to bring in a verdict of guilty if they are brought to trial. Many of the men who kidnapped Frank and were parties to the killing are known to the public but to secure evidence in court is another matter.
