TOWN AND CITY FILTH
By Betsey Doolittle
Plato once repoved a man for
playing dice. “You reprove me
for a little tiling,” said the cul
prit.
“Habit,” replied Plato, “is no
little thing.”
The CLEAN Habit is no little
thing, nor is a filthy habit, how
ever small it may seem to you.
paper tells of the many dir
ty habits of which you are guilty,
and all of them combined make
you a filthy person.
Read this article and learn of
these dirty habits, and remember
what Plato said, that habit is no
little thing.
We reprove you for neglecting
to wash your hands before pre
paring or eating food. You may
cansider this a little thing, but if
you are filthy in this it will con
tinue to grow and fasten itself on
you, and you become filthy in
other things and clean i_j none.
We condemn you for handling
cats, dogs and other pets because
it is filthy and you need to be re
minded of it again and again.
We censure you for eating filth
from dirty cooks because it shows
you are as filthy as they, or you
would not do this. You need cen
sure and education on this line.
We tell you about the revolting
and nauseating conditions of the
kitchens of hotels, restaurants,
boarding houses and a large ma-
jority of private homes so that
you may wake up and help reme
dy these conditions by clean me
thods in yours, and then help edu
cate the public to force the hotels,
restaurants and boarding houses
some regard for cleanli
,3s and how they prepare the
meals the-puhlic are forced to eat.
There is no greater work which
can be done for the benefit of hu
manity than to teach them clean
liness.
Most persons have been brought
up to do so many dirty things and
know so little about cleanliness,
their consciences must be aroused,
and it requires a lot of teaching to
accomplish this.
The man or woman who does
not practice cleanliness will final
ly become filthy in his or her mor
al and spiritual life and cause the
brute or animal part of his or her
nature to dominant his or her life
and actions.
Habit, therefore, when it is a
bad or filthy one is no little thing,
and how true, that bedwarfed
the man by filth habits, enlarged
the brute.
BETSY DOOLITTLE.
WHO IS RIGHT?
The Baptists Methodists and
Presbyterians are on record as op
posing the great union movement
■jthers will be found in the same
column. Sensible folks do not 1 Lice
to ride horses without bridles.
Faust.
Neither pray I for these alone,
but for them also which shall be
lieve on me through their word;
That they all may he one; as
thou, Father, art in me, and 1 in
thee, that they also may be one in
us: that the world may believe
tha thou hast sent me.
And the glory which thou gav
est me I have given them; that
they may be one, even as we are
one:
I in them, and thou in me, that
they may be made perfect in one;
and that the world may know that
thou hast sent me, and hast loved
them, as thou hast loved me.
Jesus.

SNAP SHOTS.
(By liev. W. H. Faust.)
Christ told Peter that to follow
him meant that he would be a
catcher of men. According to that
leading some people must be very
poor followers of the Nazarene.
It is alright to raise millions for
Evangelizing the lost world, but
it is also essential to raise men.
The need of the day is both men
and money.
It is worse than a crime for a
man to stand before a great con
course of people and talk so low
that no one can hear what lie is
trying to say.
The little lad walking the
streets with his father comment
ing at the service flags at the
houses was prematively wise,
when he looked up and seeing the
evening star said. “Papa God has
a son in the war too, see his ser
vice star.’’
The average soldier returning
from France seems to have receiv
ed ‘enuf’ war to last him for life,
at least they don’t talk much
about wanting to spend any more
time in France.
The farmer who sowed wheat
this year is rejoicing in the cheap
good flour he will have, while the
one who didn’t is promising him
self that this fall he is going to
&et sensible and sow grain.
The agriculturist who raises his
supplies at home always has enuf
to eat, and money in the bank,
while the all cotton farmer lives
in a financial strain whether cot
ton is high priced on low.
When a young man succeeds m
getting a pretty girl to say she
will marry him he is as happy as a
negro farmer with plenty of mon
ey and a Buick Automobile to ride
in.
Out in the open country you
will always find buzzards around
a dead Carcass, and not mocking
birdsr. Some people love to congre
gate and talk over a scandal,
others are like humming birds and
like the altar of roses.
The reason why we have so
many sorry boys in the country
is these boys have such trifling no
account daddies.
A man’s above who spends s‘3o
for a gallon of liquor and refuses
to put a hundred dollars*in good
literature for his county to read.
Even a rattle snake will give
warning before it strikes, but
there are plenty of long tongued
gossipers who hit without a mo
ments notification or warning.
Plenty of churches are filled
witli members who pay cash for
gas to burn in their autos, where
preachers are often required to
wait for his years salary to Febru
ary of the next year.
From book agents, Chautauqua
boosters, patent medicine sellers
and silver mine stock distributors.
When we have no money. The
(rood Lord deliver us.
Should some women spend as
much time nursing a child as they
do nursing a poodle dog, the
world would be infinitely better
off tomorrow.

A SUCCESSFUL TALK FOR
PARENTS.
From time to time we publish
“Success Talks for Farm Boys.”
Just now we should like to offer a
little “Sussess Talk for Farm
Parents.”
Every farm father or mother
should seriously ask himself or
herself: “What is really to deter
mine the value of my life on this
earth? What is the proper test or
gauge to determine whether or not
I am really making a seccess of
life?
It does not matter so much how
much land you die possessel of;
nor how many cattle or horses or
buildings. Your best contribution
to the world will conaiC of proper
ly trained, properly encouraged,
properly inspired, properly taught
boys and girls. You may make all
the money in the world and yet he
worse than a failure if the chil
dren to whom you leave the
money are of a sort to use it un
worthily. On the other hand, you
may leave no property at all, and
yet die having made your life a
great success if you give the world
one or more boys and girls of high
character, good sense, and a deter
mination to make the most of all
their powers of body, mind and
soul.
“The farm’s best crop is the
crop of boys and girls” is a true
saying: let no thought of land or
livestock or bank accounts there
fore cause you to neglect this
greatest of all crops, (live your
boys and girls not only the best
schooling can provide, but look
constantly after their develop
ment in other ways. Provide as
far as your means will permit
plenty of good books and papers
and good musical instruments.
Enlist both boys and girls in agri
cultural club work. Tefich them
habits of industry both physical
and mental, and yet give them
time for recreation and amuse
ment and for wholesome comrade
snip with other boys and girls.
