MOTHERS AND BOYS.

OF all the love affairs in the world,
none can surpass the true love of the
big boy for his mother. 1t is pure and
noble, honorable in the highest degree
to both. We do not mean merely duti.
tul affection. We mean love which
makes boy gallant and courteous to
his mother, saying to everybody plain
ly that he is fairly nlove with her.
Next the love of husband, nothing
so crowns woman's life with honor
as this second love, this devotion of a
son to her. And we never yet knew
boy to turn out" badly who began
by falling in love with his mother.
ANY man may fall in love with a
fresh faced girl, and the man who is
gallant with the girl may crulny ne
glect the worn and weary wife. But
the boy who is lover of his mother
in her middle age is true knight who
will love his wife az much in the
sereleaved autumn as be did in the
daisled springtime.

CHARITY AT HOME.

No reward comes to him who robs
himself Of what he needs to sustain
life and health, or what is needed to
care for his own, merely to give to
those who ask. No man has right
to give what is not fully his own; no
right TO give away any time that be-
longs to another, TO create poverty In
order to relieve poverty; to lose the
respect OF his home ones, or to do
what will weaken their faith in him
as provider and protector.
Mans duty is to God, and he dis
charges the duty when he is true to
the family that is the result of his
making and begetting, Men err by
withholding when they have means
to spare as well as not, and they err
by giving heedlessly to the endless
asking OF those whose great aim in
life is TO attach themselves to those
inclined to charity. Help those who
are in sickness, in trouble and dis
tress, If you can do SO without robbing
your creditors, yourself or your fami-
lY. BE just, and then be generous. To
give wisely is an art, to give well Is
TO give successfully. To provide en-
pigment is even humane and wise,
but you should give it or find it to
those who try to deserve such assist
ance, not to those who are lazy, dirty,
shiftless, careless and indifferent to
your success. Let those who will
not try to come up just little high.
err, with your help, remain where they
are except you are able to give.
No man has right TO walk de-
liberately into poverty in order to
prove his manhood a disposition TO
humanity. This is not the way TO
help mankind; or TO serve your coun-
try. When man is stricken down
then help him if you can, but do not
encourage him to fall again and to
keep en- falling simply to be helped.
Do not be miser, nor yet spend
thrift. Do not be selfish, but be care.
full to preserve your own health,
means and ability to help those who
win be with US tomorrow, as we'll as
today.

HOME CIRCLE COLUMN.
CIVILIZATION AND PEACE.

Such kings Of thought as Confucius,
Gautama, Jesus, Kant and Plato came
TO the conclusion that man is made for
peace. Science and history teach that
society exists for order and progress.
The nations have learned that war is a
survival from savagery and british
ness and spells destruction.
Confucius said: "Whst ycu like not
when done to yourself do not unto 9th =
ers;" and faith and loyalty to this ideal
aided China to live for twenty-five CEN
turtles and outlive fifty nations. eau
tams said: ITO be long-suffering and
meek is the greatest blessing;" and
his pacifism helped to save the mild
Hindu from extinction. Jesus said:
The meek shall inherit the earth; and
man has progressed and civilization
won as they have been the more loyal
and faithful to this principle. Kant
said that society must be organized on
the principle of reason, that war is
contrary to reason and that the world
must do away with war; and civiIiza-
ton moves toward universal peace as
the ideal condition. Plato said that
men who incite war either ruin or en-
slave their country; and the Sweden OF
Charles XII. and the France OF Louis
XIV. are only two of the humorous
nations which have found through sad
experience that Plato was ia the right.
Science has demonstrated that war
wastes the vital energy of a people.
War impairs the vigor of the race. 1t
squanders resources and wealth. 1t
holds back the development of civili-
zation, the march OF mind and the bet
torment Of human nature.
History teaches that nations which
take the sword perish by the sword.
Assyria lived for war; and Assyria
passed away. Greece wore out its
strength in ceaseless conflicts; and
Greece and the empire Of Alexander
the Great both fell more than two
millenniums ago. Rome trusted too
long to force; and its dominion col
lapsed before the onset of the Teutonic
barbarians. Islam heH ed out kingdoms
with the scimitar; and today not one
Islamite kingdom is world power.
