the ways of her household when the

Encourage your child to be merry
and TO laugh aloud; good, hearty
laugh expands his chest aud makes his
blood bound merrily along. Commend
me to a good laugh-not a little snig-
gering laugh, but to one that sounds
through the house; it will not only do
your child good; but will be a beneti
to all who hear, and be an important
means OF driving the blues away from
a dwelling. Merriment is very catch
ing and spreads in a remarkable mann
err, few being able to resist the conta-
gion. A hearty laugh is delightful
harmony; indeed it is the best of all

ADVICE TO YOUNG
LADY READERS.

Young woman, live to make others
happy, and you will be happy! Live
for yourself and you will be miserable!
There never was an exception TO the
rule, there never will be an exception.
Plan out your life on big scale,
whether you are a farmers daughter,
or shepherdess among the hills, or
the tiattered pet of drawing room
filled with statuary and pictures and
bric.a brac. Stop where yon are and
make plan for your lifetime. You
cannot be satisfied with life OF fri
volity and giggle ard indiscretion.
Trust the world and it will cheat you
if it does not destroy you. The Re
doubtable was the name of an enemy's
ship that Lord Nelson spared twice
from demolition, but that same ship
afterward sent the ball that killed him,
and the world on which you smile may
aim at you It's deadliest weapon.
Appreciate your mother while you
have her, 1t is the almost universal
testimony of young women who have
lost mother that they did not realize
what she was to them until after her
exit from this life. Indeed, mother is
in the appreciation of many a young
lady hludrance. The maternal In.
specLlon is often considered an obstacle.
Mother has SO many notions about that
which is proper and that which is i'm
proper. 1t is astounding how much
hore many girls know at eighteen than
their mothers at forJy.tive.

lighting and heating in the cities was
practically unaffected Prominent
Germans here doubt that any COLA
boration viii continue between both
wings of the socialist party and the
governments liberals and central
party hereafter. The strike, however.
emphasized that hardships and con-
stant food economy are in the long
run beginning to weigh heavily on
the people. The injection Of peace
demands into the strike il considered
as work of ahncXationists to influence
the. Brest- -Litovst negotiations. These
are convinced the previous negotia-
tions there would have been more
successful If the impression was
given that Germany is serious in her
desire for a proper peace. The fact
that the iunkers ride the saddle has
increased the dissatisfaction and
general discomfort.
The delay in the constitutional re-
forms promised is also fomenting
general discomfort. Even the most
radical socialists express the belief the
chances of a revolutionary movement
are small, partly due to the conviction
the allied demands on Germany are In
the interests of world imperialism.
