unawares when docile child begins
some day to run away from our side.
He is brought back and told to keep
within bounds; but before very long
he is off again, and we shudder TO

Or the neat child surprises us by
coming home with soiled clothes, and
we wonder whether it was not one of
the neighbors' children that brought
him to his plight. We know, Of course,
that other peoples children are DISC

NEW YORK SUBWAY GUARD
CONFESSES DYNAMITE PLOT
Striker Says He Put Bomb in
Tunnel--Five Others Are
Implicated.

New York, Nov. 6.-JameS Merna,
a subway guard on strike, confessed
to the police on Friday that he set off
the bomb that wrecked the LenOX ave-
nue. subway station on the morning of
October %.
Il would willingly give up my life"
he said, 'for the benefit of 1000
workingmen. No one else is to blame
for the plot"
Merna's father is a motorman on
strike.
Three associates of Merna have con-
fessed they were implicated in the plot
that resulted in the destruction of the
Lenox avenue station, and that they
plotted to cause explosions in the
Times Square subway station and the
Fifty-ninth street station at Columbus
circle. These exploits were to have
been made on Friday, they said.
One of the men cOnfeSsing to this
plot is Michael ]. Herlihy, tWenty-one
years old, an elevated guard and finan-
cial secretary of a carmen's local.
In all the confessions the men pro-
tested they meant no harm to human
life and had set off the dynamite
charge to make a demonstration"
Five of the six men arrested are
officials of the Amalgamated Union of
Street and\ Electric Railway EN-
plOyees. The sixth is a chauffeur. The
national association of this union has
repudiated the plotters and condemned
their work.
After the arrests Captain Tunney of
the detective bureau issued this state
ment:
1--WE have evidence that the funds
financing this explosion, and other con-
tempated explosions came from the
Garments union"

ABSENTMINDED Mr.. JONES
Although He Hadn't Forgotten the Fa-
vors, He Might Almost as Well
Have Done So.

Mr.. Jones' wife says that he is the
most absentminded man in the world
She finds it necessary to look him over
every morning before he leaves for his
office, lest he should appear there in
his paiamas some day.
On the day that she entertained the
members of her club, Mrs. Jones took
great pains to purchase the bridge IA

"Now," she said in the morning, as
he was about to leave for the day, do
please try and remember to go to the
store next door to your office and get
25 of the handsomest favors in the
store and send them up to the house
with boy this afternoon"
Jones promised faithfully to remem-
Der and promptly forgot all about the
matter until he reached the office. Then
his eyes lighted on the string his wife
had tied about his finger.
"Great ScOtt!'' he cried, "thOse IA

opening his mail, he came across let
ter from his wife.
Don't forget those favors," it read,
"and be sure to pay for them"

abstractedly. II did nearly forget
them"
Shortly after receiving the letter, his
wife called him up on the telephone.
"Have you bought those favors!' she
inquired.
'By Jove" answered the husband, Il
did almost forget them!"
At noon he left the office, to be gone
the remainder of the day. AT six o'clock

tired but happy in the consciousness
that his days work was over.
At the door of the house his wife met
him, in a plainly wrathful mood.
"Wretched man!' she cried.

moment. Then an awful thought
pierced his mind.

Wonder Of the Rose.

What service has the rose rendered
to our ancestors that we should admire
it beyond all rational measure? Did 1t
feed them, clothe theI1, warm them, or
serve to deck some otherwise unatrac-
tive maid and win for her a wooer!
Did cur ancestors, whether beasts or
human progenitOrs Of retreating skull
and tusklike teeth, breathe in its
beauty and take fresh courage for the
battle of life? Can it be by chance that
man has come to find in flower the
great symbol of beauty? Why Is not
the fruit more beautiful to him than
the flower? Why not the vegetable
than the fruit? Why not the fish than
the vegetable, or lamb chop most
beautiful of all?--Henry Dwight Sedg-

Or, at best,
II wouldn't have thought of doing
anything like that"
These things are not said for the
sake of completing the historical rec
ord. You will have guessed that they
are said for the purpose of impressing
the young person with the abnormal
ity of his wishes or conduct and thus
with the unreasonableness or even
wfckedness of his ways. But there are
two serious defects in the method.
Statements made in this form are like
ly to be untrue. And they generally
fail to produce the desired effect.
When father was sons age he really
did want q latchkey for weeks or
months before he had the courage to
ask for it; and if he now thinks it
prepOsterOuS for Jack to ask for a
latchkey it may be that his judgment
has mellowed. But to say to Jack,
when 1 was your age is hardly to
the point. If the truth were known or
remembered the parent would not say
hot int En To &c,
likely to think to himself that father
must have been rather dull in those
days. Has mother forgotten the time
when she preferred considerations Of
dress and parties to the humdrum of
the household? Or was she really the
kind of girl that never cared?
When we are inclined to lose pa
tience because the child objects to
wearing the clothes we have selected
for him, let us search the dusty cram
nies Of our memory attics for the days
when we thought that everybody must
be watching our absurd blouse or out
landish hat. When we are tempted to
lose our temper because the child in
Inmates that we are unjust in our treat
ment of him, let US recall the days of
futile rage when we resolved never
to eat again, or when we wished we
had never been born.
Every child passes through these ex-
periences, and most of these same chill
dren grow up to be unseeing ard un-
feeling parents, because they forget.
Of course, we are not to be blamed for
forgetting; that seems to be the nature
of the species. But we might at least
make an effort to find out just what
we have & right to expect and to de-

dren. In a normal school the young
women who are the next year to be
intrusted with the care Of young chill
dren will be found very often to show
the same attitude of Indifference and
antagonism toward their instructors as
Younger children do so commonly.
Yet these same young women when
they are placed in front of a class will
resent inattention as if it were wan
ton and malicious affront to their au-
thority. The normal school student
will very often shirk work and avoid
responsibility but in a short while,
when confronted with similar conduct
on the part of her pupils, she finds it
difficult, if not impossible, to under

things" The college student will
"lluff" through his recitations in the
manner characteristic of the particu-

he will be outraged because some
sharp boys try to play the same trick
upon him.
