when your greatest pleasure will ho

If you have made up your mind to

There arc two tittle words, simple
enough in themselves, that introduce
untold trouble in the world and re
sponsible for more gossip, scandal and
harm than any two words In the Eng
lish language. Those two words art
nothing more than, “They say." They
have dona more to ruin the reputa
tions than all other things. If you
never quota what Hhsy say* yon may
be quite certain you are not a gossip.
Homo ia a magic wont, and we eel
dotn toy to analyze it A little Pol
leh girt in a public school wae asked
recently to write a definition of home.
She wrote, "A home ia where people
Itee, and where a man or somebody
cornea home and finds people there,
aad then mu!" And thaa eats! Id
how many thousands of men that is
the end and aim of coming home! To
how many thousands of women the
preparation of the food to he eaten is
tha chief business of borne makiag.
How many of our school children’s
parents ever visit the schools or even
-knew,the teachers whan **1ST mmit

what their children are studying or
how they are progressing? Is there
say of you who have a building to
make or a fence ts build; a dress to
mako. a boose to paint or whatever
the Job may bo, that my to tho one
yon have employed: "Hero are tho
tools aad materials, go ahead aad do

la that aot what many of you an do
lag with your children. You say by
four actions: "Hen la my with

nished materials and tools, educate
him as you like.”
Yeung man, there ia one thing you
manot do You cannot make a suo

thaa you have tried it and failed.
You cannot loaf around the street
Mraer, smoke, ton storks and sponge
