There is no earthly tie so strong or
so sacred as that OF motherhood. Soci-
ETY. is held together by social ties.
Civic societies are bound by money
and oaths. These obligations are like
girths OF steel. let none hold like the
marriage bond when inviolated and I'M
polluted by vile theories.
There is only villanous abomina-
lions in the doctrine that leads a crea-
ture called by courtesy a man, to an
nounce that transfer OF his affections
warrants a breach Of loyalty and de-
sertions OF one who. has become his
wife and the mother of his children.
No guise OF prophecy can cover so
vile a principle: no charm of poetry
gild so hateful n treason, and the
breath OF perdition is on the lips OF all
such as advocate anything else than
loyalty to wifehood and motherhood.
1t is the mothers who hold the world
in place. They are the balance wheels
OF the universe. They hold the scep-
ter OF power by controlling the affec-
tons OF men. The hand that rocks the
cradle has controlled armies. Marie
Theresa quelled the tumult of a mighty
army in Austria by raising her fair
hand. and we are told that all was
hushed to silence. as in clear, sweet
tones, she spoke. 1.-THE bravest battles
that ever were fought, have been
fought by the mothers of men,"

You men and women who have head

have backache and feel all worn out
Are you keeping your bowels clean
with Cascarets-or merely forcing a
passageway every few days with salts,
cathartic pills or castor oil?
Cascarets Immediately cleanse and
regulate the stomach, remove the sour,
undigested and fermenting food and
foul gases; take the excess bile from
the liver and carry Off the constipated
waste matter and poison from the bow

Starting In Life.

You are soon TO leave and break
away from all the tender ties OF home.
and go out to seek your fortune in the
world Let us whisper a few words
OF counsel. We suppose you wish to
be rich; most people do. We don't
think riches are desirable. We should
be sorry TO have inherited wealth. But
competence Is very desirable, Is In
dispensible. Well. the way to get IT
is by forethought to plan, industry to
execute and prudence to keep the earn
ings Of your work. Get what you hon
estly earn. but never take more. Money
is by no means the best thing in life.
You are here In this world to become
good man. wise man, Just man,
an afrectionate man. n religious man.
Work for your manhood as much as
for money: take as much pains to get,
and as much TO keep II. Keep clear
OF vice. especially intemperance, gamb-
| ling and RIGHTEOUSNESS. These three
ruin thousands OF young men every
year. And finally. remember. though
absent from the sight OF the dear ones
nj home you will ever live In their
hearts: and their highest earthly wish
will he that you may provo yourself
