Bad Boys.
There is one very noticable
feature about boys that lias
been-gained by observation,
and in nine cases out of ten,
these observations prove cor
rect. Every town school has
its “bad boys,” generally not
many, rarely lesg than three
lior more than five.
After their first; two years,
or they have passed the pri
mary age, this troublesome
disposition begins to crop out
and they soon become the
chief annoyance, and though
there are but one or two, they
keep things in an uproar and
almost ruin every good intent
of the school. And thus they
go on severely taxing teachers
as to know what course to pur
sue. They forbear with them
much, persuade not a little
and try all means and meth
ods to win them to a course of
right, but it seems all in vain.
Thus these boys put in a few
years of school life and then
away, but their course in the
world is no better than when
in school. These few “bad
boys” become the annoyance
of the town, and now the au
thorities are put to their “wits
end” to know what to do
with them. Parents, perhaps,
highly respectable, honorable
and among the best, for their
sakes much is forborne—much
overlooked; but these boys go
right on despite pleadings or
warnings and next day they
are before our courts—and
next would be behind the bars
but for the influence of friends
and money.
Where is your boy today ?
Is he just at that stage of life
that our first picture portrays?
If you ever hope to reverse it
do it now, for if it ever can be
done this is the auspicious
time, and in all probability by
just and judicious means you
will succeed and save your
self many a heartache—many
a tear, many a sleepless night,
and have the satisfaction of
realizing in the future all the
fond anticipations you have
had conceirrj-.g your boy.
Where is your boy today:
Did you hope the picture por
trayed in the beginning would
reverse of its own accord and
that in after years he would
“learn reforni” and grow up
in all that was good and use
ful? You would indulge him
now in every whim, hoping
by and by he will in turn
thank you for it and do your
slightest bidding. Doeg, he?
Now, honestly, is not our pic
ture true to life—our observa
tions correct? They are por
trayed right in our midst—
they are portrayed every
where, and, dear parents, we
only bring the pictures to
you, hoping as you gaze on it
and you realize its truth and
correctness, it .

Our Girls.
It should be the aim of all
to give the girls just as broad
a business education as the
hoys. . It makes them capa
ble of taking care of the fam
ily, if such responsibilities are
placed upon them; it broad
ens their ideas and makes
them nobler and better.
Girls, as a rule, are fully as
clearheaded as boys when
young, but if, as is the com
mon practice, the girls are
brought up to do nothing, to
think (but [little except of
dress and amusements, they
fall far behind the young man,
at the age of twenty, in men
tal ability.
What is needed is, that at
home and at school, they be
taught that to shine in social
circles or to roll in wealth is
not the highest aim of woman
hood. But let them be taught
to make a home joyful and
happy, and yet be prepared,
if necessary, for life’s Sitter
est struggles. Let them un
derstand thoroughly the de
tails of every-day life, the
value of all kinds of commod
ities used daily, how to make
a check, draft, note and re
ceipt. Let them be told the
truth about themselves and
about the world. They should
know something about the
snares and pitfalls that beset
them. Let them be thorough
ly impressed with the fact that
on themselves, to a large de
gree, depends the {success of
the men they marry. Let
them know how to cook, giv
ing them a thorough course
in the kitchen. Let them be
gin where their mothers left
off, and we shall have a geu
eration of girls strong, hope
ful, ambitious and self-reliant,
that will elevate the men, and
make a hardier and more ag
gressive people, and thou
sands of firesides happier and
better.
Home.
What beautiful and tender
associations cluster thick
around that word I
The thought of it is a very
shield; the name of it has
spell to call back the wander
er from the path of vice, and
far away where the myrtle
blooms and the palm trees
wave, and the ocean sleeps
upon coral strands, to the ex
ile’s fond fancy it clothes the
naked rock, or stormy shore,
or barren moor, or wild height
and mountain with charms he
weeps to think of and longs
once more to see.
Of all places on earth, home
is the most delicate and sensi
tive. Its chords move with a
breath; its fires are kindled
with a spark; its flowers are
bruised with the least rude
ness. Here our hearts wear
no covering, no armor. Every
arrow strikes them, every
cold wave blows full upon
them. If we would have a
true home, we must guard
well our thoughts and actions.
A single bitter word maj' dis
quiet the home for a whole
day, but like unexpected flow
ers which spring up along out. fectionS( and for p i easure .
What Marriage Means.
At the true meaning of mar
riage, our mind is filled with
thoughts. Marriage to wo
man is at once the happiest
and saddest event of her life.
It is the promise of future
bliss raised on the death of all
present enjoyment. She quits
her home, her occupations,
fier amusements, everything
on which slie has hertofore
depended for comfort, for af-
path, full of freshness, fra
grance and beauty, so do kind
words and geutle acts and
sweet dispositions make glad
the home where peace and
blessings dwell. The heart
will turn lovingly toward it
from all the tumults of the
world, and home, “be it ever
so humble,” will be the dear
est spot unddr the sun.
Lost Children.
Children lost! lost! lost!
Harken to the startled cry.
Children lost! lost! Oh men,
your cities are full of them;
and they are your children,
your own tender ones; moth
ers,' the babies that lay in
smiling innocence upon your
bosoms; the dear, brave • boys
that looked up to you in per
fect confidence and warm im
pulse love. Your homes are
lonely without them, your
hearts are hungry ior their
love. Oh, you miss them
now; you want the little hands
in your own once more; you
want the warm kiss upon
your aching brow. But life
hurries on, and lost! lost! ever
rings through the darkened
aisles of time. One by one
the drunkard’s graves yawn
wide and somebody’s darling
is gone. The midnight revel
and the gambling den covers
its ghastly dead, the homes
are in sackcloth, and sorrow
sits a familiar guest by many
a hearthstone. Brave, be
loved boys, noble men, fair
browed maidens and mature
womanhood. Oh, how they
fall and perish; and land is
full of “Raechels, weeping for
their children who will not
be comforted because they
are not.
Actors who produce a stolen
play are likely to be caught

Take Hall’s Family Pills for con
stipation. t
The parent by whose advise
she has been guided, the sis
ter to whom she has dared to
impart embryo thought and
feeling; the brother who has
played with her by turns, the
counselor and the counseled;
the younger children to whom
she has heretofore been the
mother and playmate, all are
to be forsaken at one moment
in a sense. Every former tie
is loosened, every hope and
action is to be changed on
this serious day, yet*she feels,
with joy the untrodden path
before her. She bids a fond
adieil to the life that is past,
and turns with excited hopes
and joyous anticipations to
the happiness to come.
Now, woe to the man who
can blight such fair hopes;
who can, coward-like, break
the illusion that has won her,
and destroy the confidence
which love alone has inspired.
There lies in the center of
each man’s heart (those who
really possess a heart and are
capable of loving) a longing
for purity, and no young man
should be carried away with
mere beauty, but should look
to character and disposition.
Were people all determined
stoutly to be all thqy appear
to be, and go into marriage
with a high and divine pur
pose, there would be more
makers of earth’s nearest sem
blance to Heaven—happy
homes.—Bertha Turner.
One of the Fish.
“Doin’ any good?” asked
the curious individual on the
bridge. *
“Any good?” answered the
fisherman in the creek below.
“Why, I caught forty bass
out o’ here yesterday.”
“Say, do you know who I
am?” asked the man on the
bridge.
The fisherman replied that
he did not.
“Well, I am the county fish
and game warden.”
The angler, after a mo
ment’s thought, exclaimed,
“Say, do you (know who I
am?”
♦“No,” the officer replied.
“Well, I’m the biggest liar
in eastern Indiana,” said the
crafty angler, with a grin.—

The trouble with most cough cures
is that they constipate. Kennedy’s
Laxative Cough’Syrup does not con
stipate, but on the other hr.nd'its lax
ative t principles gently move the
bowels. It Is pleasant to take and it
is especially recommended for chil
dren. as it tastes nearly as good as
maple sugar. Sold by Cooper’s drug

His Love Through You.
Not in the Gothic church
alone, which the mighty or
gan fills with solemn music;
not in nature only, where the
universal chorus of prnise
from cricket up to seraph stirs
the sluggish heart to praise;
not beneath the fig tree, where
the guileless Nathaniel medi
tates on Jacob’s ladder, or on
the housetop, where the apos
tle beholds the white sheet,
emblem of a redeemed world,
but in the prison cell, in the
pvercrowded tenement, in the
attic where the cripple sits all
day in his chair, or the cellar
where the sick woman lies in
her weakness, we may meet
Him* whose delights are with
the children of men, and who
is found where they need Him
most. Do not wait to do great
things; be content with little
ones. Do them as they come
to hand. Out of the smallest
seeds arise the noblest trees.
Do not shrink back before
great opportunities, tor He
who gives them waits to sup
ply all needed grace and pow
er. You are nothing, but you
are in partnership with God,
and He is all. Do not love
men with your love; it will
falter in the terrible strain,
but let His pass through you.
Do not help them with your
help; it is not enough, but let
His succor them, passing
through you, as the electric
current along the overhead
wire of the trolley line. Do
not stay counting your five
barley loaves and two small
fish; it is true that they are
nothing among so many, but
put them into His hhuds, and
they shall satisfy five thou
sand men, besides women and
children. So let us conse
crate ourselves afresh to love
first and best our Master
Christ, arid love men as neigh
bors for His dear sake.—F. B.
Meyer.
