share. So they appointed him, or chose
him, leader, and for several thousand
years the same plan was followed all
over the world. A man was king not
by divine right but by might. a few
hundred years ago it began to look as
if there would be more kings than king
doms. The thought Of whole lot Of
kings sitting around with nothing to
do was not pleasant one, and so it
was decided to limit the number BY max
ing very strict regulations regarding
marriage. When prince reached the
matrimonial age he found that his choice
was restricted to some fair or otherwise
lady in a very small circle. Because Of
this the governing families in Europe
today are really not up to the average
OF the people over whom they reign. In
breeding has proved as had for the human
race as it has countless times among
four legged animals.

THE RES ULT.

He was a stone mason and very
good one. Steady, sober and indus
trious. He lived in little cottage with
a bit Of garden which he tended with
the loving care that good gardens need.
His wife was a helpmate in all the word
implies. His children were healthy and
strong. Taking one day with another
his life was useful to himself, to his
family and to the community. He
found time to help those who were
poorer or weaker and fairly earned the
respect of his neighbors, who rightly
called him a good man. Occasionally
of an evening he went to a hall where
were gathered from thirty to fifty earnest
citizens whose lives were ordered in
much the same way as his. For an
hour or more they talked OF the Great
Day when the world should recognize
the Brotherhood Of Man-when fierce
competition should be replaced by
friendly cooperation. When opportu-
mites and incomes should be equalized
poverty abolished and sin and sorrow
give way to right living and JOY. Once
or twice a year he would listen to a
speaker with a slight foreign accent who
would tell Of just such hopeful gatherings
in his own land. As he walked home
his heart would glow with the thought
that the movement with which he was
identified was widening and he would
tell the good wife how much easier life
would be for the children than they had
found it. With the struggle for existence
abated, how much more the little ones
could make of themselves when their
time came to mingle in the world. And
then-one hot summer day-word came
for him to report for duty. He must
become part of great machine bent on
the destruction of his fellow men. There
is just time for word or two with his
wife and children. ''Be good to your
mother, my son." eyes, father" And
as he trudges down the road there is a
lump in his throat when he recalls the
sturdy little lad awestruck and fright
ened but trying to comfort his weeping
mother. But there can be no turning
back. He must go on to kill or to be
killed. Perhaps the cnance of battle or
skirmish may bring him face to face with
the pleasant chap who told them such
beautiful stories Of the Progress of the
Movement in his own country. Must
he kill him? Why? What would be the
gain to the world? He was cheerful,
hopeful, enthusiastic, kind and CON
siderate. Surely the world would be a
better one if there were more men like
him. Don't you believe, my children,
that thoughts like these are common in
the opposing armies today? l do, just
as 1 believe that the worlds future lies
in democracy.

PAROLE "A GOOD THING.

The results Of the system of paroles
for penitentiary convicts seem to be
encouraging. In California 1892 paroles
were granted in the four years, 1911 to
1914 inclusive, as against LAS granted
in the preceding II years. Of those
paroled 70 per cent made good. Of the
% per cent who are classed as violators
of their paroles, only 4 per cent really
committed new crimes, the other lS
per cent being guilty of petty offenses OF
failure to observe pearol conditions.

KEEP YOUR MONEY AT HOME

Be careful to whom you send money
by mail. Mr.. Burleson, the Postmaster
General reports that in the last five
years the Federal authorities have
prosecuted 1851 mail swindlers, who
have filched about $350,OO0,OOO from
their victims, most of whom are poor
people. There are, of course, many
other scamps who have escaped the
clutches of the law. Offers of stock
and offers to treat disease by mail are
the two swindles that net the most
money, but there are hundred others
that find ready dupes. When the
plausible circulator advertisement
tempts you, remember the warning Of
the postal authorities, and remember
the experience of the thousands who
have lost their savings Youths Com
panion.

day with his broom and street cart.
The white wings" are not yet in evil
dence but no doubt Mr., Garbrecht will
be able to keep the street clean even if
the uniform is lacking. The next thing
we need to help the good work along is
to have the street flushed thoroughly

CAN YOUFIG URE 1T @ UT?

The men who work with their hands
drink the most liquor, according to the
biennial report prepared for the legis-
lature by DR.. George H.Freeman, sup
erintendent of the farm for inebriates at
Willmar
He submitted table showing the oc-
equations of patients admitted to the
hospital. The total was 227 men. The
number in the occupations follow, in part:
Laborers 81
Farmers III
Clerks ........ Ia
falnCers ....... IL
Four bartenders have been admitted
to the hospital for treatment and two
saloonkeepers. Nine travelling statesmen
were overcome by the liquor habit and
sought cure at the institution. The
schoolmen were represented by three
teachers. OF doctors there were four.
The carpenters numbered seven and
blacksmiths five.
Just what isthe relation between house
work and drink is not explained in the
table showing the occupations for women.
But of thirty-fve women admitted to the
hospital, tWenty-four were housewives,
three were domestics and two nurses.
Norway and Sweden furnished the
highest percentage Of foreign born in
mates. The land of the ford was the
birthplace of sixteen out of sixtythree
foreign born. Sweden was next with

England and Canada have each been
represented by six inmates. Three
Irishmen found their way to the hospi-
tai. OF the 227 men admitted, 164
were native born Americans.
Perhaps solution Of the questions
aroused by the above statistics, is to be
found in the fact that too much physis
cal labor dulls the intellect and become
so monotous that stimulant is desired
and the poor man turns to- the only
available one for him, liquor.
