boys of today. We are writing
about the very bad boys, and we
don't mean that we are to uphold
them in wrongdoings. Don't go
down in the ditch with them, but
lend a helping hand and help
them out. Give them a kind word
of cheer whenever you can. We
must trust a man to save him.
Make him think that he is a
man, and the good that is with
in him strives to do the best it
can.
We are too apt to distrust
our fellowmen. We don't love
one another as the Master bade
us do. When a brother goes
wrong we don't try to bring him
back, but like Cain, we cry,
Am / my brothers keeper?"
You hear people say in speaking
of some of these boys: There is
no good in him, he will never be
any good" We don't know each
other because we don't try. We
are looking for faults instead of
trying to find some good. We
don't think you will find a boy
with no good in him. We never
have.
We don't know why he went
wrong. Maybe he was neglect
ed at home. SO many people
think that anything is good
enough for the boys. Start him
right; give him your love and
respect at; home, and he won't
be apt to forget it. Perhaps if
you had the temptations he has
you might be lower than he is.
A girl can be such a help to a
brother if she will. And you who
meet him in the worlds broad
field, don't judge too harshly.
You will never know the long
ing of his heart after better
things while you and / are look
ing coldly and forgetting that
for such as he the Blessed Mas
ter came and suffered. There
is not one but is worth saving,
yet we professed followers of
the Master pass by on the other
side.

A lady who does not live a
hundred miles from this office
suspected her husband was in
the habit of kissing the pretty
servant girl and resolved to de-
tect him in the act. After
watching some time for an OPP
portunity she heard him enter
the kitchen quietly one evening
when the pretty servant girl was
out. She Immediately placed a
shawl over her head and with
matches in her hand and heart
burning with jealousy, entered
the darksome kitchen by the
back door and was almost i'm
mediately seized and embraced
and kissed in the mostardent
manner. Burning with rage
and bent on administering ter
rible rebuke she tore loose from
his embrace and struck match
and there stood face to face with
the serving girls beau. Her hus-
band says after this his wife
was never more affectionate
since the day they were married.

HOME LIFE.

We wish we could sufficiently
impress upon every woman the
importance Of the home, and
that a woman can have no high
er work in life than making a
home for her husband and grow
ing children. This truth is in
great danger of being lost sight
of in these modern times, when
women will leave their little
children to be cared for by hire
lings, while they take up outside
work which might just as well
be done by others Of course if
the mother is obliged to earn
their living, that is a good ex-
cuse, but if not, she has none.
If all good people who depre-
cate divorces would be more
careful aboutmaking marriages !;
if the churches would not give
their sanction to bargains for
titles, and then deplore the out
come, there would not be so
many mistakes to rectify. The
first thing for any human being
to learn is that life is law and
any transgression will bring
trouble.

HERBS AS HOUSE
HOLD REMEDIES

From the earliest history Of the
human race the world over, herbs,
roots and banks have been used as
household remedies. Those nations
who peopled the civilized world be-
fore the Christian era have handed
down to US in their writings. descrip-
tons of the very same household rem
edies that are in universal use today.
These remedies were laboriously gath
cred and placed in their crudest form
upon the shelf for future use. That
these simple remedies were beneficial
is not doubted by anyone; today medi-
cal science universally accepts these
same remedies. Their medicinal value
having been proven by generations of
constant use, the authorities on ma
terra medica the world over agree
upon their medicinal qualities. Need
less to say these various roots, barks
and herbs do not have the same Tnedi-
cinal properties, but rather they cover
wide range of the many ills to which
the flesh is heir.
Medical science of the present day
has carefully studied the many rene
dies in various proportions and their
effects, and have scientifically demon
strated from the entire worlds pro-
ducts which are the best under certain
conditions for the many different dis
eases.
There is a carefully selected and
scientific combination of simple veg
etable remedies the original formula
of which is that Of a distinguished
German physician. 1t is not patent
medicine, but the result of perfected
private formula which has for over
seventeen years proven most benefi-
cial for the relief of all blood, stom-
ach, liver and kidney diseases. 1t is

LESTWE FORGET.

In the age of hustle and "do
the other fellow lest lest they
do you" it seems to me it would
be well to stop and think.
The real vital question thai
confronts us is not militirism
preparedness or education; but
morality and perpetuity of the
home. 1t is far better to U.S.
preventive's, than cures. The
preventive must come from
the home, with the old fashioned
mothers as the preceptor.
One of the most potent agen
cies of immortality is "dress"that
begins with the little girl. We
have often seen little girls whose
dress consisted of a waist with g
ruffie for a skirt when the child
would sit down this ruffie would
extend to about half way be-
tween the trunk and knee, the
child with it's natural modesty
would try to pull this ruff" down
to cover it's nakedness. Their
we have seen women standing
before an open door, dressed in
transparent skirts, thus produc-
ing an X-ray photograph.
AS a result of such exhibit
tons we have intercepted notes
passing between girls and boys
i use girls first because in most
such cases the girl makes the
advance-that would make a
libertine or prostitute-blush
with shame.
1t is needless for us to expect
this condition to be bettered by
the 'spug-doy" mother, childless
malcontent, the denizen Of the
fred light row. or she who
glories in the foot-light glow
and the licentious gaze of ha-
bitue Of the front seat of the
play house.
The above classes are ranting
over the land crying with loud
and blatant voices

well-meaning men and women

The boy who takes his hat off
when he enters the house is the
one who usually has his hair
combed and his face clean, and
the girl who says please and
thank you, is always prettier
than the one who forgets these
little things. You just look
around and see if this is not
true.
Many a young woman who de-
serves a good man for life COM
panion, has jumped in at ten
der age and married a Johnny,
and gone through life embarras-
sed the rest of her days. Johnny
is all right as an ice cream boy
and as slot machine with which
to get chewing gum and bon
bons, but when it comes to
measuring up in after years
with the men who do things, and
whose wives make up the budget
of satisfied ones, he is down and
out before the race starts. Girls,
if you must marry, and you
must, if you would be happy, be
sure and marry a man, or at
least what is going to be man.

why YOU ARE NERVOUS

The nervous system is the alarm system
of the human body.
In perfect health we hardly realize that
we have network of nerves, but when
health is ebbing, when strength is declin-
ing, the same nervous system gives the
alarm in headaches, .iredness, dreamful
sleep, irritability and unless corrected,
leads straight to breakdown.
To correct nervousness, Scott's Emul-
sion is exactly what you should take; it's
rich nutriment gets into the blood and
rich blood feeds the tiny nerve-cells while
the whole system responds to its refresh
ing tonic force. 1t is free from alcohol.

Many country churches once
strong. today are numerically
weak, because the Young are
leaving the country villages for
some congested metropolis.
Country churches are mighty
factor in the moral world and
deserve every possible encour-
agement. The society of a coun-
try district centers around the
little church, and when that
church declines, rural society
disintegrates.
