The little Quakeress appeared and said at once, ’Loose the women.’ ’Why,’ moiled the wardens who had conveyed her there, ‘-ve dare not; sho fights like-a wild animal. Our live* and yours, too, would be In danger.’ it took sev en of i s to go 1 isr 1l-‘ . tt-« chair and tie her.’ 'Loose her at once,’ said the little Quakeress, and, yielding to her gentle determination, but with watch ful alarm they obeyed her. When ev ery bond had been removed the Quakeress suddenly threw her arms about the woman’s neck nnd kissed her. Thero was an Instantaneous transformation. The whole aspect of the savage nrisoner changed,, she burst Into n Hood of tears and sunk helpless to the floor. From that mo ment until the hour of her release she never gave any one any trouble." Patience and kindly persistence are great factors In reformation. Sympa thetic and Christian cooperation on the part of this and all organizations whose concern In the question of hon or. among school children is vital, will tend to the realization of the Ideal will not let It go; my heart shall not ^ reproach me so long as I live.’ The Psalmist prayed, "Let intBg- , rity and uprightness preserve me Solomon, the wise man, said, “A good ' name la rather to be chosen than great ,! rides.” These observations from f such’j.aulborltative sources put a pre mium on honor. Our qutStlon touches the vast and Impressive principle at the point of departure. We are dealing with life in Its formative period. The school L age is the most Impressionable age of human life, and early influences ■ stamp the soul. The patient Is the 'child. The disease has been diag nosed by our skillful superintendent. His appeal to us for a remedy Is sin cere and urgent. It Is not his bus iness merely, but your business, my business. In a heart to heart talk I hope we may be constrained to a sense of our personal responsibility. Let me say there Is a question of vast and menacing proportions. Per ish the thought that any of us should foolishly tako the position that they are Just children, and we can over look their failures; they will outgrow their crookedness. Observation has sadly but thoroughly convinced me that there Is no virtue In tho sow ing of wild oats. As a rule, those who sow wild oats reap no other harvest. I have never been able to subscribe ft to the Illogical nnd pernicious theory that the way to make a man Is to en courage p child to test the reality and power of evil. You might aa well say the .way to keep a child from being blown to pieces is to place tn his hands a match and a keg of gunpow der. The way to prevent murder and homicide Is to license every man to _ carry a pistol, and see that he 'dili gently uses It. A crooked twig makes a crooked tree. "Tho boy is- father to the man.” With few or nojexcep- tlona, those who are now llvlnff.of my school companions arc now distin guished, or extinguished, by the same principles which they exposed in those earlier days. The lessons taught the child by precept and example are 'of vast importance for time and eter nity. Now, wo all know that there Is a vast difference In children. Various causes, perhaps, account for this dif ference. Heredity has something to It. Environment has some- to do with It.

The solution of that problom la the solution of all problems.' j The Held of education is thf-nre.’ ent and future battleground between the foes and friends of Christianity. Broadly speaking, Christian education la tfie great problem. Industrial edu cation la good, but not sufficient. In tellectual education la good, but hot sufficient. We need the education of head, hand and heart—-a blessed and inseparable trinity—the head to di rect, the hand to execute and the heart to Inspire. I rejoloe that our public schools are dominated In large measure by men and women of character and purpose. We need an awakening on the Scrip tural places of the homes In our Chris tian civilization. Here there Is oppor tunity for a life that can bo meas ured only by the eternal years of God. I often think if parents were just as systematic In their home training of children as they are in business there would be fewer hearts broken because of wayward boys and ungrateful girls. There would bo fewer Davids lament ing for lost Absaloms. It takes all of God's grace and parents' good Influ- eenco and fervent prayers to keep the child steered straight for heaven. The boy and girl need all the contempt for sin and dishonor that early piety can give them. The pressure Is so great that the need a mighty start in the right direction to keep them from trying the wrong. God's best gift, next to Christ, Is a Christian mother. Not only her own children, but poets, sages, philoso phers, rise up and call her blessed. Her Influence Is stamped on civiliza tion. Her precepts are registered In the hearts of her children. Her hand and head and heart are seen and felt In the halls of congress. In the palace of Justice, In the chair of learning, In the pulpit of the Gospel ministry. Men may have their portraits In the Hall of Fame, but usually, If not Invaria bly, a mother's love and a mother's character are responsible for this dis tinction. would urge upon parents and teachers the value of gentleness In dealing with the erring children. "Bet ter than the conscience that drives la the love that draws.” The following Incident Is related by another; "In a Northern prison there was a criminal woman who had driven the jailer and wardens almost to despair. She had been placed In solitary con finement; had been tied and bound but whenever she was free she fought like a tigress with all who came near her. In another prison there was a little Quaker woman, who aa matron, had the reputation of being very an; cessful In dealing with unmanageable prisoners. The despairing men de termined that the virago on tLelr hands should be transferred to that prison. With Immense difficulty they their youth, and our daughters as cor ner-stones polished after the slmill- tude of a palace.” REV. H. G. GRI8WOLD IS DEAD A Former Pastor of the Presbyterian Church at Quitman. Cordele, Ga„ Jjl n - 26.—Per. Henry G. Griswold, age 47 years, pastor of the First Presbyterian church bore, and one of .the beat known mlnlateri in South Georgia, died at 11 o’clock last night at his home on Twelfth avenue, of pneumonia. Ur. Griswold's death was expected from noon yesterday. Two weeks ago he contracted a severe attack Of la grippe, which ran Into pueumonla. Every effort was made to save his Ufe by Drs. Wallace and Smith, who remained from nuon yesterday until the end came. The death of Ur. Griswold has oc casioned great soytow In -'ordele, where he has resided with his wife and two children for nearly a year. It will be remembered that he was called by Gja-n-irdelf c1iurch._frj Quitman His Qnymnu cn. jjrogatl objected to giving him up, and took the matter before the Macon Presby tery, which held a special sesssion in Cordele and decided that Ur. Gris wold should' remain hore. Some Muscular Women. The Japanese Jul-Jitsu, approved by 'a high police officer aB a means by wgilch a small man may render a big man helpless. Is now available for the protection of the lone woman. In the gymnasium of the San Francisco high school the girls are taught the trick of this art, and one of them, who Is visiting in New York, has dem onstrated the value of this Instruc tion. Insulted by a man as she left the door of her hotel, she seized him according to the Japanese rules and flung him into the middle of the street, which ended his desire for her acquaintance. The young woman doed not think it so much muscle as skill which Is required for the operation. Still, there are women who are ca pable of muscular achievements. On the same day a woman detective In a department store picked up two stout men who iwero helping them selves to goods, threw one of them to the sidewalk and knocked the oth er down, capturing both. Also, at Johnstown, N. Y., the two daughters of a farmer killed, cleaned, scalded and hung up tw6 hogs, each wolghlng 300 pounds. These Incidents may be sglnlficant. How Busy Men Find Rest. A. J. Cassatt, president of the Penn sylvania railroad, finds time to take lots of Interest In his horses. He has a large stock farm near Philadelphia, where he has thoroughbreds and hack neys. G. J. Gould finds tine to play polo with his sons, and during the summer does soihe yachting. He la a hunter, too, and Is fond of a trip to the woods In search of big game. R. Keene takes a few minutes now and then from his Wall street operations to watch the work of bis big stable of race horses. His stable Is one of the largest In the country, and Is a very successful one. This Is his chief recreation. August Belmont has always been i enthusiast about alt' kinds of sport He now owns a stable of race horses, and owns and races a yacht during the season—Detroit News. A Chicago man who disappeared ten years ago has Jaat written his wife that he "will come back to her from the grave.” She replied that If he was comfortable In the grave, he had better remain there, as she had another husband Just at present who was giving good satisfaction, and ahe didn’t think (he would make a change. Ben Hill’s Tribute to Gen. Lee. In an address before the Southern Historical Society, delivered In At lanta, February 17, 1874, Senator Ben Hfll made the following eulogy of Gen. R. E. Lee: When the future historian shall come to survey the character of Lee, he will And It rising like a huge mountain above the undulating plains of humanity, and he must lift his eyes high toward heaven to catch Its sum mit. He possessed every virtue of other great commanders, without their vices. He was a foe without hate, a friend without, treachery; a victor without oppression, and a victim with out murmuring. Ho was a public of ficer without vices; a private citizen without reproach; a Christian with out hypocrisy, and a man without guile. He was a Caesar, without his ambition; Frederick without his tyr anny; Napoleon without his selfish ness, and Washington without his To ward. He was obedient to authority as a servant, and royal In authority ns a true king. He was gcntlo as a woman In life; modest and pure as virgin In thought; watchful ns a Roman vestal In duty; submissive to law anil Socrates, and grand In battle as Achillea.” Easy to Keep Afloat. If every person knew that It Is Im possible to sink If one keeps his arms under water and moves his legB as If be were going upstairs, and that one may keep -this motion t up for hours before fatigue ends it, there would be few casualties. Such is the fact. Except where the cramp ren ders motion Impossible, the man who gets an Involuntary ducking has (mall chanco of drowning. He can gener ally keqp afloat until rescuers appear.
