scissors, making scrapbools, model

beads or buttons. With older chill
dren, and with babies, too, poise and
self-control are gained "in the 81
lence," and the wise mother will give
herself as well as the childl en- this
hour of rest.
1t is mistake to allow children tt
play with dozen toys at. one time
Children can easily Ee taught wber
very little to select and play with one
thing at time, and to put it awat
in its place before another is taken
Even in crowded apartment it il
possible to fit up a box or shell where
each child can have a place for his
Cwn treasures.
Toys which develop the imagine
ton are better than intricate mechani
cal toys and deliberately dressed dolls
Next to a ball, the very best play
thing is a set of blocks, which is
capable of being Transformed into
anything desired, from train of cars
to a pigeon house. Give a boy of 5 q
hammer, some nails and a few pieces
Ct wood and see what he can make
the results are often surprising, Chill
dren love TO create, and the toy which
they have made themselvs will give
more lasting pleasure than the usual
elaborate plaything bought ready
made.
The occupations of grownups have
great attraction for children A few
simple regular duties should be given
them every day Work is one of the
greatest means of spirital develop
ment and the wisest of all teachers

GLASS BREAKING SPIES

So much appears daily in the news
accounts from all sources about the
discovery of ground glass in food
stubs that the government has made
a statement covering the investiga
tionssover the country.
The case of cheese in Abbeville will
be remembered as one which gave a
scare here and only proved to be the
work of a spy but an accident on a
tafm Ii Wisconsin where it was made
a thermometer had been broken in
the cheese. - 4 6N
The frequent and widespread pub
llcation Of statements concerning the
presence of ground glass In foodstulls
has led the Committee on public In
formation to inquire into the authen
ITCHY ofsthese reports 1t has been adj
yised. by the Food Administration
that thorough Investigations of more
than 200 of the cases has disclosed
only one instance in which glass
was found in the foodstuffs inspected.
The case in which glass was found
occurred at Fort Smith, Ark. A baker
in that town had trouble with his en-
ployees, one of whom. desiring to de-
stroy his employers business, had
filled with glass loaf of bread which
was to be delivered to an orphanage.
When the bread was served to the
inmates of the institution several of
them suffered decorations of their lips.
No more serious injuries resulted.

Germany who would for a moment
try to justify the act of the Caholics
in Ireland who have assumed that
they are not going to submit to con
scription as it applies in England,
Wales and Scotland. Catholic Ireland
in this move is sacrificing it's exis
tence. England is gong to carry the
IRISH to the war That is matter firm
ly fixed and the longer the Catholics
offer a hindrance, the more complet-
" do they lose their right to exist in
the kingdom.
II has been said many times that
home rule would spell the doom OF
Catholicism in Ireland, or else the
Catholics would rule Ireland and for
this reason home rule was not wanted
Now that home rule must be accepted,
it is time for the Catholic interest to
be moving to preserve itself and the
fight against CONSUMPTION Is almost
sure to send Catholicism so far into
,he slough of its own error that il
will rever come again.
And this terrible mistake will weigh
against the Cathlic church around the
world wherever allied interests are
striking against Germany. From all
we know the Catholics of Europe
feel that they will live or die as does
the German Empire. Ii that be the
case down with them If this attitude
pervades the Catholics of Ireland
then England nay well be firm and
deal harshly with them, for this late
IN the conflict 1t is mighty danger

the Justice of these inevitable consc-

a punishment which he feels to be the
result of his own heedIessness or

"A child readily realizes that scat

tardiness necessarily brings a loss of

spent by him will not be re-supplied
by the parents, that teasing or tor

causes a loss of society of the mis-
treated one. that petulance on his
part brings silence on the part of the
mother. that reckicssness when on the

WHEN HER BACK ACHES
A Woman Finds All Her Energy and Ambition
 Slipping Away.

BrinkIey women know how the aches and pains that often come when the kidneys fail make life a burden. Backache. hip pains, headaches, dizzy spells. distressing urinary troubles, are freouent indications of weak kidneys and should be checked in time. Doan's Kidney Pills are for the kidneys only. They attack kidney diseases by strlk- ing at the cause.
