praising the flag, said that there

declared that the remarks of the
Secretary of the Navy caused the
sailors and the mob to break loose.
Mr. Daniels denied even having In

who know .Mr. Danils know that he

These tiny bugs cause some people
almost untold annoyance, and some-

scratching causes erysipelas and
blood poisoning. They bother chil

bugs are scarcely as large as the

The btst way to handle the "chlg-

If you get "chiggers" and take

desired, every flattening tongue cut
out and destroyed. Dr. Samuel John
son used to say "of all wild beasts
preserve me from a flatterer."
The evil one himself is the king
and masters of all flattery. Thus
he induced our first parents to eat
the forbidden fruit, and encouraged
Human In his purpose to destroy the
Jews.
The flatterer is said to be "a
beast that blteth smiling." He
paints a virtuous side to our weak
ening follies and bids us go for

of rice or virtue. In reality, he
Is base and cowardly a traitor of
the worst kind to our higher inter

talk often proves sweet poison"

Let the flatterer curb his tongue
and the flattered guard his footsteps.

Deliberately Insult the man who
starts to tell a filthy story In your
presence by turning on your heel
sucn a corruptions has no more
right to steal your pure thoughts
than to put his hand Into your pock
et and take -your money. These
retailers of filth are wbited sepul
chers clean on the outside, but
Inwardly filled with dead men"s
bones. They are debauchers of
clean minds, robbers of purity. You
should never permit yourself to lis
ten to an improper story a story
you would not care to repeat to
your mother or sister. The filthy
suggeatireneas will soak Into your
memory as spilled ink souks Into
blotting paper.
Allow no man to drag your mind
through a sewer. Do sou know that
there Is many a man who would
sacrifice much today to be able to
wipe from his memory some of the
things he listened to when a boy?
The man who will deliberately re
peat al risque story in the presence
of a youth deserves no respect. He
Is an Incarnate devil of meanness.
He Is daubing a course picture on
clean walls. No gentleman will tell
story he could not tell In the
presence of ladies. Do you remem-
oer what General Grant said to the
officer who began to tell a story,
remarking, "There are no ladles
present?" The soldier quickly re
torted: "There are gentlemen pres
ent." Keep your mind unsullied. A foul
suggestion may harden Into a hab

astray. Keep clean Inside. It Is
more a matter of importance that
you should keep the dirt off your
soul than to keep It oft your clothes.
