IT IS IMPORTANT
Id The Training of Qillren to Make Them
Dear Their Own Burdens.
The real sulTerers from war arc in
large part, the innocent non-combatants
who remain al home to suffer from want
and distress of mind. Thereat sufferers
from drink and crime are not tho victims
of ihe one or the perpetrators of the oth
er, tint their wives and relatives, deprived
of support and disgraced. They have to
bear the burdens of others, and many of
them do it cheerfully, oral least without
Complaining, as a muterof duly. There
are other kinds of huidcns, however, that
aie imposed upni people not responsible
for them. The wild young man incurs
debts which tin cannot pay, but they do
not worry him; ho coolly transfers that
burden to some indulgent relative, a moth
er, perhaps, who mistakeuly helps him
out of bis dilhculiics, leaving liiiu to go
a "it free of punishment. Or another man
without being wild is careless and extrav
agant and lives beyond his means He is
greeted everywhere as a geneious fellow
who does n 'it begrudge in nicy in the en
tertainment of his friends, and he sleeps
without a eire, though burdeued wilh
d-dit.
How d oes lie in mage it? Ho has a
loving sister, who, though she has little
means, devotes what sho cm save to kcep
iug him all tat. She bears his burden.
Slio dojs more thin that she creates it.
It is because he is sati.-fied that when
creditors press him he can bjrrow from
her money that be never returns that he
is careless about iucurring debt, and plays
the pirt of the prodigal, content to be
callel generous, though he is, in fact, a
meao dep ndent There are tiiu s and
occasions when we should bear or help to
bear the burd mis of ot tiers. When a neur
relative or friend suffers without fault of
bis own it is the part of Christian char
acter to teiieve liiul as far as possible of
bis burden; but there is no such duty
imposed wlnm the buiden itself is created
by the sedisbness of tbise upou whom it
falls, Tlie duty then is to stand aloof
an I allow the punishment to fill where
it belongs.
In one of Gilbert's comic operas there
is a song recounting how the Kuiperor of
Japan hopes iu time "to make tho pun
islimeut lit the crime" aud describing the
iu el h i id of uicciiiig various social offeoseh.
There is an undercurrent ol sound sense
in ihe humorous verses The puni-li-tneni
ought to lit the crime, aud tbeu
there would be less crime. Social usage
is such, however, that many i tf.'uses
o unpunished or the innocent are
made lo aet as shields protecting the
guilty I'rom such wt, lesome adiuouition
as their offenses Would bring to theut il
they were left to themselves. The child
whose parents protect him from all nat
ural puuishmeuts which should follow
transgressions of social law "never seems
to learn" anything about his obligations
to society. Hut this same child leurus by
one lesson to keep his hands out of the
6 re, simply because his pureuta cannot
take to themselves his blisters. It is an
important part ol' the training of the
youug to make them bear their own self-
imposed burdens. In that way they
will be taught not to create such burdens
Then when they suffer from some cause
beond llo'ir control it is just as much
our duty and privilege to share their
burden or help them to bear it.

MEN DON'T STAY
In 1 heir Homes .Unless They l inj Their
Homes Entertaining.
The following extracts are from an
address made by Miss Clara Bostwick,
a teacher at the Elmns school in Spring
field, Mass:
" What is the college woman's prob
ability of happiness in marriage com
pared with that of her less highly educa
ted Hstcr? She chooses tier husband
later. She is mom developed; sho knows
belter what she is going lo be; she stands
a better chance of not selecting a life
companion whose tastes and hers will
prove helplessly antagonistic. Aud this
is of especial importance in America,
where girls and boys are thrown so freely
toofther; There they marry when and
whom they wish, aud where (lie parents
in mauy cases apparently have little else
lo do with the matter than to pay the
bills and try to shield the young husband
and wife I'rom the consequences of their
folly. The man whom a girl would have
married when she entered college is prob
ably not the man whom she would marry
when she is graduated from college This
uiav result in the breaking of some early
engagement, but an engagement that can
be broken would better be broken.
'The college-bred woman is also less
likely to marry from ennui. Even if
she is unfortunate enough to have no
definite work, after she leaves college she
has resources within herself which can
not only pievcnt life from becoming a
bore, but which can mako it rich and
satisfying. Neither will she be likely to
sell herself for the sake of a home. She
is better equipped to support herself, if
necessary, and she lias probably lost mauy
silly ideas she may have had about the
unlady-likcuess of honest, bread-winning
work. Finally, when she has been,
she stands a much better chance of keep
ing her husband's love aud respect, bd
ciuse she stands a better chance of inter
esting him.
'Men don't stay in their homes unless
they find their homes entertaining,' said a
mirricd woman of wide experience iu the
wor'd, in talkiug about the donation of
h r daugter. 'I tell my daughter that if
she is ever to marry she needs to know
so nothing for two reasons; first, to hold
h T husband's interest; and seconl, to
hive within herself resources that will
m ike her happiness to a certain extent,
independent of him; in which case he
will be much m ne likely to stay in love
wilh her."
The tireatest Discovery Yet.
W. M. Repine, editor Tiskilwa, 111.,
"Chief," says. "We won't keep house
without Dr. King's New Discovery for
Consumption, Coughs and Colds. Exper
imented with many others, but never got
the true remedy until we used Dr. King's
New Discovery. No other remedy can
take its place iu our home, as in it wo
have a certain and sure cure for Counhs,
Colds, Whooping Cou;h, etc." It is idle
to experiment with oilier remedies, even
if they are urge I on you as just us good
as Dr. King's New Discovery. They arc
n it as good, because this remedy has a
record of cures and besides is guaranteed.
It never fails to satisfy. Trial hot I ha

A FATIIKKLV ASSl KAXCi:.
Mrs. Cuiurox's sin was studying his
Litin lesson. There was the tremolo of
discouragement in his voice as lie re
marked:
"I don't seem to get aloug wilh this
les'on very well, father?"
"Can't you say any of it?"
"Yes; I can say 'atuo, amas, amat;
and then I always forget what comes
next."
What does those woids mean, John
ny?'' asked Mr. Cumrox, who deserves
credit for being always ready to add to a
somewhat deficient early education.
"They meun 'I love, thou lovest, he
loves.' "
''It does seem too bad lo see you
starting in so soon," the old gentleman
mused, "with the difficulties that has
always surrounded that verb. But yi u
might as well eouimcnco young to learn
th at them words in one way or mother

GROWLER NOT RESPECTED
Some of His Bright Sayings At His Current
Lecture.
Here are some of Sam Jo nes' witty
sayings, as reported by the Ciliz;n from
his lecture in Asbeville last week:
This is a great old world, aud I'm not
going to leave it on purpose. Here's one
fellow who is not going in kill his fool
self.
I've no respect for giowlers, therefore
1 don t respect many people. 1 Ins nu-

the colic from eating too much.
I want logivo you the worlh of your
money il'you'vegot any place to put it.
Some of you d illar fellows, I expect, paid
o much. But if you haven't got routn
for it you can just sit still und let it run
over.
I'liere is nolbitig in this world to which
tip my hat with profounder respect than
genuine man. The only trouble is,
I dou't have to lip il often. A man is
bigger than a king bigger than a presi
dent. II' there is a man iu politics 1
don't know it. Take North Carolina for
xatnple.
A Boston man once asked me: "Does
the negro diff r I'rom the white man in
insiinct? ' I told him no, the difference
was mostly in the oulsiink.
Some old deacon who swindles you
will say "I'm obliged to live." Thai's

Among ihe giiU we need more honey

When women get to cutting off the
tops nf their dresses for ihe ball room ami
the bottoms for the bikes, I begin to get

Some say that Sam Jones is vulgar.
When they say I'm vulgar it's like the
