Moral Advice to the YOUNG.

It should be observed that moral de.
pravity is all the moro difficult to dis.
Germ because it's manifestations are
checked and cloaked by public order,
as enforced by law; by the necessity
OF having good name; and even by
ordinary polite manners. And this is
not all. People commonly suppose
that in the education of the young
their moral interests are furthered by
representing uprightness and virtue as
principles generally followed by the
world. Later on, it is often to their
great harm that experience teaches
them something else; for the discov-
cry that their early years were the
first to deceive them is likely to have
more mischievous effect on their
morality than if these persons had
given them the first example of ingen.
uons truthfulness by saying frankly
The world is sunk in evil, and men
are not what they ought to be: but be
not misled thereby, and see that you
do better. From THE Basis of Mo.
rality.' by Arthur Schopenhauer.

70 REBUILD OLD sWEDE MILL
Original Building, Which Was Burned
In 1885, Figured in RevoIu-
tionary War.

TIE Frankford Historical society. In
pursuance of it's plan to save to poster
lty all possible Information In regard
to early landmarks and points of his
toric interest in that section of Penn
sylvania, has succeeded in restoring to
the community the plan Of an old
Swede mill which burned in 1853, the
Philadelphia American states.
The original mill was built by the
Swedes before the arrival of Penu. A
Gre destroyed this ancient structure
il 1855, when it was replaced by an
other, in which the plan of the origi
nal structure was preserved as nearly
as possible. The second mill also was
destroyed by fire, which is still re-
membered by few old residents.
1t was at the original mill that
Lydia Darragh overheard British off,
GERS discussing plans to deliver an
overwhelming attack upon Washington
and his army at Whitemo rsh and car
ried the information to an American
officer in time to enable Washington
to make preparations to counterfeit the
attack.
Every available source of informa-
ton was exhausted before the society
obtained the desired information as
to the plan and appearance of the
old mill. -Four drawings were made
on information supplied by old resi-
dents, and the finding Of additional
information resulted in the acceptance
OF the plan submitted by Charles W.
Caster, one Of the Oldest members OF
the society, who frequented the mill
In his youth.
According to his description, it was
two and one-half story structure with
an oyershot wheel ON the northern end,
where the race entered the building.
The entrance to the mill also was at
this end. A large hoist with dormer
roof surmounted the western side.

CAP BROUGHT HIM RICHES
Peculiar Experience Of German in Rus

Some time before the outbreak OF
the war German organist, who went
to st. Petersburg, as the capital o!

experience with new cap that for .
time almost made him believe in the
magic of the Teutonic fairy tales.
The organist bought the cap during
his first day at the Russian capital.
and wore 1t the next day when he went
out for walk. On his return to his
lodgings he was amazed to find two
gold purses in his pocket, one Of
which contained q sum equivalent to
$50. y
The next day, after his usual walk.
he found four purses in his outside
pocket, find that caused him to doubt

chief of police to tell his story.
The authorities detailed detective

cloth brought in by a stranger. From
