INGRATTITUDE TO PARENTS
A correspondene tells a pitiful sto
ry of an a£pd wlu reared
r twelve children, all of whom a_e
prosperous. The mother is now
very poor, and none of the children
will ;ake her to his home.
Stories of this kind are too fre
quent.
V The writer knows a sad case of
an old mother who was permitted by
prosperous sons to go to the poor
house because their families were
ashamed of the poor old lady.
Ingratitude to parents is a crying
2 evil.
The debt owed by a child to its
parents is the most sacred of all
human obligations.
Think how the father toils un-
M ceasingly and the mother sacrifices
ungrudgingly that the child may be
i and grow and prosper. If in the
family life there are short dinners
to be eaten that the children may
prosper, father and mother eat the
scraps; if there are shabby clothes
to be worn that the children may
I have good garments, father and moth
er wear them, if there are debts to
be paid that they may be educated,
i father and mother scrimp to pay
them.
Who watches with unceasing devo
tion when the children are sick?
Who rejoices in the children’s suc
cess and comforts them in their de
feats and sorrows? Who coins life
blood for the children’s sake? Who
but father and mother?
How, then, can a child desert
its mother in her old age?
If her form is stooped from the
graceful figure of her ‘ daughters,
it was stooped in the service of her
children. If her kindly old face is
seamed, the care of the children put
/ them there. If her hands are knott
' ed" and worn, it is because she used
them for the children’s sake.
, Desert her?
All the curses cf the God who com- ■
manded “Honor thy father and thy
“* “ ifiother” will surely rest upon the un
holy ingrates who are too pround to
take mother into their homes and care
for her tenderly and lovingly.
Why, my friend, it you loaded your
mother with the treasurers of earth
heaped upon .her all the honers of
a queen you could not begin to pay ■
her for what she has done for you,
■ because the debt is immeasuralbe. But

ROADS IN VIRGINIA
T he railroads of Vriginia have giv-I
en a decided impetus to the improve
i ment of the highways by pledging
themselves to haul all material for
use at cost and men and machinery
free.
Virginia railroads are no more ,
utopian than other lines in the coun- I
try. They are as willing as other
• companies to forget their public in
i terest when considering their own.
I But there is indicated a refreshing
sense of foresight and good sense, i
Upon the condition of country roads
largely depend the .earnings of rail
roads. The district with fine high-1
ways is the one in which land com- 1
mands the higher price. The farmer
with property worth SSO an acre will
be less likely to let parts of it lie
idle than one whose land is quoted i
at $5 per acre. Good roads attract
the agriculturalists looking for new
locations. They draw the folk who de
sire to expand their fields. Large sec
tions of country in the east are unim
proved purely because bad roads make!
the markets inacessible.
Virginia has sufferd the blight of ’
neglect. Settlers have rushed for
new lands, in the far west while,
cheaper lands in the south, possiblj’ !
run down, but generous when fertil
ized lay within easy distance of the
big markets. Good roads will help
,tc bring Virginia back to her own.
j And with the increase in the state’s
I prosperity the railroads will be able
■to show better earnings. The losses
: in carrying material at cost, or free
jof charge, will be made up a thou
sand per cent. —Toledo Blade.
It has been announced that an air
ship line will be in operation soon
, between Potsdam and Berlin.

‘ boys and 93 girls of every 100 of.

PLEASURES OF FARM LIFE
No man has ever pictured all the ad
vantages and pleasures of real farm
life.
The first great blessing is health
which can be found only in the pure
air of the country. What is more
delightful than to live in the fields
with the changing seasons breathing
in life’s dear fluid at every breath;
watching the foliage of spring chang
ing from beauty to beauty; listening
to the birds —especially our mocking
bird and shy thrush’ —noting the
brilliant tints that sky and clouds as
sume at sunrise and sunset —tints
that must be akin to the beauties of
heaven —watching, hearing, tasting,
feeling each change of season and es
pecially when the frosts of autumn ap
plies his magical brush changing the
leaves of the forest into a hundred
different colors; gazing on the fields
of moving corn and cotton; listening
to the wind at night whispering of
rain; watching the starry hosts as
they pursue their endless courses;
watching the approaching cloud bring
ing its much-needed moisture; noting
the peculiar odor which accompanies
the rain when coming in contact with
the dry earth? What a pleasure it
is to know that God has given us
; eyes to see, ears to hear and a soul
to appreciate the beauties He has lav
, ished upon this earth.
But many farmers do not deal with
poetry and dreamers. If they ever
think of nature or notice it, it is from
i a financial standpoint. The rain is
though of as a means to make crops
grow. The birds as so many en
emies or friends to crops. The winds
are often dreaded for their damaging
effects, etc.
, The parents never realize that bad
habits are caused from the lack of
proper raising. They say: “I raise
my boys under prayer.’’ That is
good so far; but is the boy given the
proper amusement at home? Is he
taught the beauties of farm life? Is
his mind awakened to the knowledge
that farming is the grandest and no-
■ blest occupation on earth? Is he
taught that if he obeys the laws he
lives under he adds that much to the
I strength, prestige and glory to a gov
: ernment of the greatest possibilities
on earth? Is he taught that he is a
part of that government and the more
knowledge he gets and uses the more
i powerful in every way he makes that
I government?
If every boy in the South was given
proper amusement to make him take
■ a pride in home life and the farm; if
' every boy was taught the correct prin
I ciples of farming for the next twenty
years, what would be the wealth of
i this land?
We read the story the other day of
the blind Arkansas genius who made
a fortune in old age by following
sound principles in farming, and yet
there are hundreds of people who read
that articles who will not make one
single effort to farm better.
The hope of the farm is education.
The hope for the country school is
good teachers. Every reader of
Home and Farm realizes that the
school means a whole lot to the wel
fare of his boys and girls. It is plain
to us that the free school could do
a great work; in fact, the greatest, in!
bringing about the desired results.
But some one says, “The teachers
will not do their duty.” Ah my broth- '
er, it is not the teacher that makes
the school altogether; the people
who patronizes the school have lots
to do with it. When the right kind .
of teachers are demanded and prepa- :
rations made for them then they will :
be forthcoming.
The free school is the place to ed- j
ucate to a great extent the future farm
ers. With the proper training at
home to push him any boy can so
! educate himself under any teacher to J
! meet any problem in good farming;
I he can prepare himself for college if I
!he wishes to go, he can become an >
' honor to his neighborhood, he can
! turn the knowledge gotten there in
!to broad acres and large herds, he !
j can make the gullied hillsides produce !
a bale of cotton and fifty bushels of
corn per acre, he can produce live
stock the envy of his county and fat
hogs. He can take his father’s old
wornout farm and make of it an
earthly paradise in comparison, teem
ing with riches, all with only the ed
ucation gotten in the free schools
and at home. Without this educa
tion he may do absolutely nothing,
but work enough to barely exist and
loaf his life away. Better farming
must come. But it will not come
until better education is turned loose
to scatter the clouds of ignorance.—
Lewis L. Hubbard, in Home and
Farm.

THE SLAYEROF MARAT
Charlotte Corday and the Act
That Made Her Famous.
HER PLANS FOR THE MURDER
The Way They Were Worked Out and
How They Were Put Into Execution.
Her Own Tragic End and the Final
Act of the Brutal Headsman.
Among the instances of fanatic zeal
for country and people the act of
Charlotte Corday. who was born at
St. Saturnin, France, July 27, 1765.
and who was beheaded at Paris July
17, 1793, stands out in tragic force.
Her childhood and early youth were
full of privation, although she was of
a noble family. She was educated at
a convent in Caen and then went to
live with an aunt in the same old town
of Normandy.
She had a serene and lofty beauty,
was tall and graceful, and her manner
was full of dignity.
She spent all her leisure in reading,
and her books were always those that
related to heroism and devotion to
country. When the revolution broke
upon France, Charlotte eagerly took
up the reading of politics and public
questions. When the Girondists were
obliged to fly from Paris they went to
Caen and began to hold meetings and
form plans for future operations in
Paris.
The Girondists were the true repub
licans and got their name from Gi
ronde, as it was the deputies from
this district that had formed the Re
publican party in the national assem
bly. The massacres had terrified them,
and they had tried to stop the violent
measures in the reign of terror.
Charlotte felt a very madness of en
thusiasm as she listened to the fiery
eloquence of these men who de
nounced Marat. Danton and Robe
spierre escaped much of the censure
due for their share in the frightful
work of cruelty and death. It was
upon Marat Hint the Girondists poured
their eloquence, for it was he who had
pursued and ordered the death of their
leaders in Paris. In the depths of her
heart a purpose was formed to save
her people from this monster and at
any cost to herself.
Into Charlotte’s life a tender and re
spectful love had come to add its in
fluence in these days of strange tumult
and calm purpose. She and a young
man named Franqtielln had been writ
ing each other, and she had given him
her portrait and told him that he might
at least love that. When this lover
marched away to Paris with the Giron
dists and the neighboring volunteers,
she bade him a calm farewell, for she
knew she was going to save him.
After her execution Franquelln went
home to his native village in Nor
mandy. In the tender care of his moth
er he gradually failed, for his heart
was broken the day his love perished.
When be came to die he requested that
Charlotte’s portrait and letters be
buried with him, and his grave holds
them sacredly.
Charlotte began to< prepare for her
journey to Paris and the tragedy she
had planned. Every effort was made
to hide the appearance of a concealed
purpose. When she arrived at Paris
she at once set about her plans to find
Marat. As a preparation she went to
one of the shops of the Palais Royal
and bought a dagger shaped knife, pay
ing for it GO cents. This she bid in the
folds of her dress. Iler plan bad been
to kill Marat in the very convention,
where she thought the deed would bo
avenged by killing her on the spot.
But Marat no longer went to the con
vention. He was ill with a disease that
was slowly killing him, and hN body
was in a state of disorder and irrup
tion that gave him an agony of suf
fering. He was only comfortable when
in the warm water of his bath. He
lived on the first floor of a house in
the Rue des Cordeliers, and connected
with bis home were all the affairs of
bls journalistic work and from here all
his pamphlets and journals were sent
out.
After writing two letters asking for
an interview, in which she would give
him some important news about sus
pected persons, she got no reply. Then
she took her way to the house, insisted
that she must see him, and when for
bidden entrance by Marat’s wife she
still urged the Importance of her er
rand. Marat heard the sound of their
voices and shouted out for a reason of
the noise that bothered him. When
told that It was the woman who had
twice written him he bade her come in.
The wife, against her will, let her pass.
Marat was in his bath, wrapped in
an ink stained sheet, and was writing
on a board laid across the bath. Ask
ing her errand, he took down all the
details she gave him. When he had
the name of each Girondist who was
at work in Caen he told her that in a
week they would be brought to the
guillotine. Then as ■ ■ J 1 beside
the bath she plungei the knife into
his heart, and he die- with a cry to
his wife to come to hi
Just before her execution she wrote
to the Girondists at < . : that she an
ticipated happiness »»h Brutus in
the Elysian fields" after <r death, and
she also wrote tender d loving fare
well letters to her relatives and
friends.
When she had suffered death the ex
ecutioner lifted up h'-r her d by the
hair and struck It a brutal blow with
his list. Just at that <>m.-ut a gleam
