What do the young girls read ? Why

calculated to spoil

in the path of foolish and unholy

false ideas of life, and is rained forever.

Instead of such things, let the young

they anxious to read of senai
scandal, sport, trash? Yes, that
they are. They delight to
read sensational newspapers; they (or
at least a great many do) wise with
avidity upon illustrated periodicals of
low taste; they go crazy over baseball
reports. It is such a taste as this that
gives such wide spread circulation to
such hooks as “Thou Shalt Not,” rad

Yet, like the your.g man who went to
Christ to know what he mnst do to be

Few are thy* faults and many are thy.
virtues, but better still would it bo to
have no faults.
Therefore instead of paying so much
attention to the butterfly conversation
of the senseless young man who visits
you, direct your thought to the study of
those departments of literature and'art
peculiarly necessary to your sex. Your
womanhood does not relieve you from
the duty of acquiring knowledge. It

To keep away from the eyes of the

thing that would tend in th* least de
gree to lessen the amount of purity of
tb< ught and actiop that ever abides
with them—this should be the duty of
the fathers and mothe rs of the country.

Advantages of Gas for Cooking.
The true value of gas as a fuel for do
mestic purposes is known rad appre
ciated alone by those who have used it,
rad cannot well be overestimated. ’
The work of introducing gas cooking
ages to the public' is one of much
effort, owing to the popular fallacy that
its use ia accompanied with great ex
pense. and that the viands so cooked
are tainted by gas. These delations are
quickly dispelled. As a matter of abso
lute fact, the price at which gas is now
sold for fuel clearly demonstrates- that
it costa no more, and in most cases actu
ally less, than coal. Added to this its
numerous advantages over a coal fire,
makes it a most desirable heating agent,
as the educated publio are beginning to.
