Theoretically if not practically ev ery parent knows that firmness and kindness "should be -combined in the exercise of family discipline. Many go to extremes, being, either too firm to be kind or too kind to be firm. And the same thing is true during various periods and places. For in stance, two or three generations ago the shillalah was considered a prime necessity; today the very word must be looked up in the dictionary as a rar ity. Formerly the child was too of ten cudgeled into obedience; today the helpless parent coaxes the child in vain! The true path lies between these two extremes. Martin Luther was right when ne said: ."Never be hard with children. . I r was once flog ged fifteen times in one forenoon over the conjugation of a verb.

The chancellor told the socialist repre sentatives they were "underminers of the throne and preachers of republican ism." At the same time he praised tne glories of the German army "under whose protection Germany has be come great and prosperous." (Bladen Journal.)

COLDS TO BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY. Intelligent people realize that com mon colds should be treated promptly. If there is sneezing, with chilliness and hoarseness, tickling throat and coughing, the latter especially, annoy ing at bed time, use Foley's Honey and Tar Compound.

Disagreeing with the majority of the senate priv ileges and elections committee who voted adversely on the : seating of Frank P. Glass as senator from Ala bama, Senators Bradley of Kentucky and Clapp of Minnesota submitted a minority report. They' contend that the seventeenth amendment for direct election of senators had no application to the past; that it ex pressed popular will merely to inau gurate a new system to elect senators in the future, after terms of those in office expired, and that framers of the amendment had this in mind in a caluse-- providing that the amendment should not "be so construed as to af fect the election or term of any sen ator chosen before it becomes valid as part of the constitution." "The object of this saving caluse," says the minority report, "was to pre vent any conflict between he old law and the new." . It further maintains that Governor O'Neal was clearly within., his rights in appointing Mr. Glass to fill an un expired term under provisions of the old law. The Alabama statutes, Senator Brad- lev asserted, empowering the governor to fill vacancies . "fully justified his appointment of Senator Glass, who could act until his successor. is elect ed bv the legislature or by the people, as the case may be; and the failure of the governor to call an election, even if he had such right, would not in validate- the appointment." the industrial classes, be they capital list or labor, has risen against this or ganized insanity jof naval expendi ture) and ..this is a propitious moment for reconsidering the question of arma ments. Unless Liberalism seizes the opportunity it will be false to its noblest traditions, and those who have conscience of "Liberalism in their charge will be, written down for all time as having grossly betrayed their trust." , v. These words coming after the prime minister and the first lord of the admir alty had practically declared that an increased vote for the navy is neces sary bodes ill"1 for continued cohesion of the Liberal party. On the same day that this - Lloyd George interview, was published, : Sir John Brunner, presi dent of the National Liberal Federa tion, issued a lettev- on the same sub ject, . which is practically an attack on the prime minister, who had de clared to a deputation of the Federa tion that it was necessary to keep up the expenditure on armaments. Sir John used much the same arguments as Lloyd George and urged every Lib eral association , to . strengthen the hands of those who would like to see an arrest in the expenditure for the navy.

The acceptance of a peerage by James Bryce late ambassador to Wash; ington, And his consequent seat in the House' of Lords, is the greatest ac quisition the Liberal party has re ceived to its membership in the upper chamber sicceLord Morley took a similar step. Of the whole membership of the Lib eral party no man has more influence with the people of England than Lord Bryce. His support of any question Views of the department of labor, interesting because of the present dip lomatic situation, are voiced in a let ter in which the secretary says that the method suggested would not only provide for the Asiatic immigration issue but. immigration generally of a laboring element without .violating the most fa ored nation or other similar clauses in . existing treaties. Secretary Wilson says that a con certed movement exists in India, and elsewhere to gain admission to the United States, that" Canada has legis lated even in more drastic manner than is proposed in bills now pending in congress and that if the Hindu movement is- not checked by legisla tion. California and the West not alone will be affected "as climatic and in dustrial conditions in the Southern States and other sections of the union offer an extensive field for a people who can come in practically unlimited numbers if by failure to do as Canada and other British colonies have done they a. tacitly invited."
