Norwich, Saturday, Feb. 24, 1912. A MANIFESTATION OF JEALOUSY, The leading explorer of Canada, Captain Bernjer, does not like to have American explorers making geography n the Arctic regions and he Is trying to induce the parliament at Ottawa to protest to the United States because “ommander Peary has been trying to grab a lot of islands and icebergs in the North Pole country that belongs to the Dominion. He complains that Peary gave nemes to islands on which he never set foot, and he appears to fear that unless the Dominion govern- ment takes vigorous steps to prevent t, the North Pole country will be list- od as a territorial possession of the United States. This is a very amusing movement on the part of Captain Bernier, since no ne in this country will think of taking iously The desolate regions of an's land—being of no value to tion. The imaginary lines of ( a an boundary may center upon the North pole and the American flag may fly on the point of the without any infringement boundary pon the Dominion. I Canada does mot like the names mmander Peary has given to the i nds it can commission Captain Be nier to glve them new names. There joesn't appear to be anything in the Arctic regions worth having a conten- tion over. THE TESTIMONY OF A JUDGE idge Fa of Brooklyn, N. Y., recently put foi from the bench a declaration worthy the consideration A 19-year-old of youth and parents. boy, charged with burglary, was by he judge sentenced to prison, and n the performance of his duty he took ccasion to say I have seen your friends who wished to speak to me about you, and I find that all attempts to have you #o to Sunday school have failed. In the five years I have been sitting on this bench I have had 2,700 boys be- fore me for sentence, and not one of them was an attendant school. Had you gone there I am sure ou would not be before me today.” As an evidence of the value of the work being done in the Sunday schools of the land this is worth sending broadcast and s an assurance to faithtul, self-sacrificing workers in these schools of work well done and fruftful, it is of inestimable value, Norw ic as good Sunday schools, and ihey deserve to be more largely atterded The Ohio Journal is right when it s “There are three things in a hoy's education that we would bave pre- ferred beyond anything else. They are his reverence for sacred things, his un- selfishness and the strengthening of his will power. These things are of greater moment than all the know!- edge of the textbooks. They belong to the educo part of education—the unfolding part, the soul-expanding part, which is the essential fact in education, An educator who“doesn’t know this, who doesn't practice it, ought to give up the business.” MEN AND RELIGION FORWARD MOVEMENT., As a co-operative moment for the stimulation of communities along re- liglous, moral and social lines, the Men and Religion Forward movement has never had a precedent. Its pur- pose is to produce conditions more suggestive of the brotherhood of man to take the grind out of dally labor and to establish good fellowship be- iween employer and employe. It is deslgned to make religion practical, and to have the principles of righteous- ness manifested in the directing of rk and in the doing of noment think of Amer- s being interested in this work which is being done here rwich and the campaign is to forward the close of April.

This treaty is the result of the in- tenge agitation carried on for several vears in the past decade by the lovers of natural scenery to prevent the de- struction of the finest waterfall on the American continent by eugineers who showed a vandal-like spirit in their work there. This is an achievement which is creditable to the people of both coun- tries. CHILDREN AND . SPENDING MONEY. Easy money is no better for chil- dren than for adults. Earned money is the money which carries with it a blessing to all; and how to train chil- dren to be earners of money instead of beggars of it is not readily thought out by the average parents. A Mas- sachusetts mother, who has worked out the problem, thus discloses her plan, which a good one, for there is both system and discipline in it. She says: “My oldest three sons receive the whole sum of 10 cents every Saturday night, to do with, exactly as they choose, The other three get b cents for the same purpose. Then they have to earn the rest that they want, One good way they earn it is this: Every quarter at school they bring home a report of their school work. A is ex- | cellent, B good, C fair, D poor, and E failure. Daddy gives them 10 cents { for every A, § cents for every B, noth- Emu for a « Then if they have any D's they must pay Daddy & cents, and if any E's they must pay him 10 cents; and you may believe, Eward, they work falthfully for their money Do you like this plan? Of course, Dick is only in the first grade and Buddie doesn’'t g0 to school vet, so they don't partici- pate in this scheme. Then Eugene (13) wprks after school in the grocery store, and Kenneth (12) has a paper route. Ronald does nothing but read and experiment with his wireless sta- tion, and Keith is my hired man and gets a cent for every hod of coal and basket of wood he brings. 1 never question them as to what they do with it. 1 only know they buy their own playthings and presents for the fam- ily.” The value of such training as this during juvenility cannot be questioned. The incentive and reward aré made | sure. and the system is one that will tell through life, Doing something to get money is business—getting some- thing for nothing oscillates between beggary and fraud. This early order in home affairs must make good bus- iness men and home managers. EDITORIAL NOTES. If poverty is a disease, no one dare sscribe its origin to the microbes in our money Happy thought for today: Forget what you fear and set your mind upon what you love. The superior court of Ohio has ruled that the dictagraph iz a competent witness, This keeps it in court. Those who have spread butter thin have forced down the market. Keep it thin and the price will stay down. In Maryland the girl who can en- tertain a man in the Kkitchen as well as in the parlor seems to take the cake, It ig recalled to mind that Theodore was not so pronounced upon the tar- iff when he was president as he might have been. When it comes to the 48 stars in the flag they all shine with the same mag- nitude. The original thirteen are lost in the galaxy. Roosevelt's declaration that his hat is in the ring makes one class of citizens feel like shouting: ~“Right you are, old sport!” v people did not pray for things that would not be good for them, there might be more evidence of prayers answered. The statement that Washington was only opposed to three consecutive terms hasn't the endorsement of the Father of Our Country. When a woman asks a male ac- quaintance how her new hat looks, he usually pulls himself together for a | flow of honeyed words. They say “if Governor Wilson uses all the safety ragors that have been iven him, somebody else is going to capture the barber vote. Southern New England has not fully gotten into the winter of 1912. We are free from snow while they are snow- balling one another in Texas. It doesn't make any odds how much we differ on the ten greatest Americans; it is generally allowed that Edison belongs in the list.

These people are moved more by what other people may think or say than by the promptings of honest convictions. In fact, most of them do not have any convictions except those ready-made, or framed for them. Whether they follow good or evil guidance they do not do any thinking to speak of for themselves. Such living is not the fruit of em- lightenment, but the flower of stupid- ity. It is up to every person not only to be a good trail finder, but a rella- ble trail maker, The seed others sow must bring forth something of and for ourselves. The power to absorb is significant of the sponge—the power to give forth the power of the elec- tric battery, The more a man puts into life, the more he gets out of it. No man is fully alive who is uncon- scious of the sustaining power of God every day. There is more or less of a mix-up in this world upon theories and facts; and too few persons appear to know the point at which a theory ends and the fact is born. It may be a theory to you that heaven is within you; but this is not a theory to the man who has had a true spiritual birth, for the moment he realized the truth where theory stood, there stood a fact; and facts are immovable, 8o the theory has faded away for ever. Theory is the forerunner of fact, and Tryon Edwards declared “Facts are God's arguments; we should be careful never to misun- derstand or pervert them.” Yet, men who are blinded by passion or preju- dice will fail to recognize facts, and will talk of theory long after it has ceased to be theory. It ig theory to cause they will not have it any This perversity was what gave rise to the proverb that ‘“None is so blind as those who have eyes to see and will not see!” Too many do not want to know the truth if it cannot he squared by their measure, which is wrong. It seems as if the world was ad- vancing more and more as the old Sunday-go-to-meeting face is fading away as a symbol of piety. It used 10 be a real serious thing; but now look at i If it is taken as anything more than old-fashioned foolishness it must be in a very remote country vil- lage where its uselessness has not bee: discovered. To the best of folks, now adays, who live near to God, every day & God's day, and they know that without His bo#ntiful sunshine and showers man could neither exist nor subsist on the earth. The Ruler of the universe is coniributing to the well-being of His children every day in a most material way; and enough is provided for all. The men who sitout loud In prayer to their Heavenly Father do not appear to know that he can read the inmost thoughts of their hearts every hour, and that many prayers are oo earnest to ever be ex- pressed in words, The mystery of Goodness is past finding out, but the practical effects of it are what will bring abiding peace to the nations and re-establish on earth paradise. The man who wrote “Do not let vourself be carried away by enthusi- asm unless you have a return ticket,” knew what he was talking about. There is danger in enthusiasm, even it it be true that nothing great has ever been achieved without it, It is a force that is as contagious as the measles, and it means accomplishment whether the project it is used to pro- mote is the advancement of truth or the promotion of villainy, It has been sometimes a blessing, and sometimes a curse to communities and nations, It is a good thing under control; but a perverted energy when it fires a mob and leads men to unjust and dishonor- able acts. There is no return ticket when one ig carried away In such a manner—there is no coming back. It matters not about man-made laws, since man dishonored by brutal pas- sions cannot get back where he was. When they were selecting the twen- ty-five most beautiful words in the English language recently, “accommo- dating’ was nver thought of, Per- haps you see no reason why it should have been; but you must admit that it is first cousin to kindliness, and both are related to love, which did get into the list, so it must be admitted to belong to a beautiful race. It may scem to vou that man is the most ac- commodating creature on earth: but it took a Jersey colored man to find out that chickens are the most accommo- dating things God hes created, for he said “Chickens is so accommodatin’! Dey's so accommodatin’. sur, yo' can eat 'em befo' dey's bawn, an’ yo' can eat'em ahftah dey's ded.” Looking upon | the word in this light it does seem to| |ante-date itself and then lap over. It will get a dollar for a man who hasn't earned 1it, but it seldom aids the man who earned it to get it back. The Jer- sey negro appears to have discovered |the full extent of the word's elastic- ity. Have you ever had a real earnest de- sire to set things to golng right in your society or town? ?01 all of us have yearning spells when we would be willing to pull the labor oar for right if we only knew where to begin, Well, do not get the notion that charity is the only thing which should begin at home, for it is not. Didn't it ever dawn upon your mind that things would be better if you were better? ‘We are all prone to think everything would be better if the other fellows were better, We all have a little habit of overlooking the chief of sinners. On occasion, when I have wanted things different, I have made myself different and it wasn't necessary to ask the oth- er fellow to be different, for changea conditions seemed to lure him into bet is a lot of such work done in the shops | and factories and churches, and the mass never seem to know how it was done. Tt is simply a demonsthation |of the power of love through self-con-| | trol and a righteous heart. The great- est power known to science makes the | least noise. There are a great many ways to ruin a town as well as to skin a cat. It is not the man who hurrahs the loud- est who is the darling citizen, The well-being of a town does not rest in such a campaign for progress as Nor- wich has recently been through. The well-betng of a town must rest per- manentiy upon the moral character and integrity of its citizens. Little convulsions now and then in a good cause are commendable. A town in which the standard of manhood is not gaining is in a bad way; so is the town where the per cent. of untrust- worthy eitizens are constantly increas- ing. The men who make a town are the men who live orderly and econom- tically, who trade at home and pay their bills promptly, who promote pub- lie improvements and who are willing to be taxed for the betterment of ev- ery good thing. The good citizen is always at the door of service and the post of duty with 100 cents on a dol- lar to meet every demand upon him. It takes a live man to keep the door of the mind open. Some men have a mortal fear that evil may creep in and they will be undone, so they keep | conception of real life; | gets he must work for. ter ways without a spoken word.

If the revelators of the Scriptures had not kept the door of their minds wide- open, relsvaton would have been gar- bled Mankind has not been told the guarded truth would make him free. PUSSY It is almost time to expect them, and how eagerly they are greoted as the first sign of spring. No m(nm how bleak and drear a winter may be, pwhen FPansy was praised for the re- sults. Bbe always disclaimed any such | pussy willow knows when the time arrives for her to putn her appear- ance. She whispers to berself, “The sunshine warms my veins and sends a thrill of life and energy to the very tips of my roots and branches. It is time for me to arouse from my winter slumber and in putting forth my buds. The little children love me dearly and they will soon come in search for me. I must not disappoint them, for I love the little folk as well as they love me. How tenderly they stroke the soft fur of ‘my pussie! I like to feel the touch of their fingers as they handle me and hold me to their rosy cheeke and compare the size of my catking with those they have culled in other years. They say each yvear that these are the largest pussies ever grown, that they never saw such lovely pink tints on any others, and the dears 10 not realize we are blushing from pride and pléasure at theit praise; We want the world to be brighter and happier for our be- ing in it, and though we must soon | give way to the flowers of the flelds, we will improve the little time allot- tea to us for doing our share of the | world's work.” So talked pussy willow ag she awakened in the clear, frosty air and realized that the sap was ris- | ing In her veins, and her year's work | must begin. But it is a human Pussy Willow with whom 1 must make you ac- quainted just now. Her real name was Prudence Willoughby, given her by her | old aunt, Palience, in memory of a dearly loved parent, whose name she desired to perpetuate. But Prudence did not seem to suit the wee little girl baby, and it was shortened into Pussy for a pet name, and, as soon as she became old enough to mingle with other children, they quickly turned Willoughby into Willow, and so it turned out that littie Miss Pru- dence was known to all the neighbor- Willow. the name fitted the no other could have done. retiring, yet courageous withal, her vl‘nlh‘ ways and smooth temper | corresponded to her name. She was tha only caughter, and a great pet with | her three oider brothers, who vied with one another in their devotion to | Pussy. No child was ever so perfect | in the eves of parents, and Aunt | Patience, who was a member of the| family, could see no fault In her favor- ite nlece. Even her coloring took the pussy willow tints. A scft, rosy flush adorn- ed her cheeks, and as she grew older she was often dressed in combina- tions of goft grey and pink, which were her favorite colors. The bright reds and blues worn by the other girls in the community were not for her, nor the gay plaids in which they delight- ed, She went about like a demure Quakeress in long coat and close hood of lignt grey, and a lovely picture she afforded in the opinion of those who kuew her best. So she grew to maidenhood and took | her place in the quiet gaieties of her | native village, where she ecasily be- came the leader in many a pleasant work for others. Selfishness was un- known to her, and often a kind deed WILLOW had its origin in her kind theught. All the girls referred to her for advice and suggestion, and very rarely was any jealousy or resentment shown flattery, saying that the other girls did much more than she and deserved the approval for good resuits more’ than she did. Needless to say, she was not lack- ing 1n admirers of the opposite Sex. Like the lassie who came “through the Rye,” all the lads smiled at her, but she was evidently mest pleased with the attentions of Harry Grinnell, whom she had known from childhood. He was of good parentage and ambi- tious to try his fortune in the out- side world, but could take to the city little except good character and a clear head. Pussy and he had a fair understanding of each other's affec- tion. but he would bind her to no premise until he saw his way clear to financial success, and her people refused to accept any other arrange- ment. So they parted, good friends and nothing more, “I'll come back when the pussies are in bloom and clalm my Pussy Willow,” sald Harry, heerfully, and Pusey sent him on his way with a fond smile and words of encouragement. B ns came and went, and nothing was heard from Harry Grin- neil. It was known that he went to a distant western city, but there all trace of him was lost. The death of his parents, which occurred soon aft- er his departure, severed the last ties which bound him to his native place, and he was forgotten by most of those who knew him in beyhood. BBut Pussy Willow recalled him with every return of springtime, If she felt neglected, she never told of it, and with happy, contented smiles bus- ied herself in caring for her parents as time advanced, and endeared her- self to an ever-increasing circle of nephews and nieces, who were sure Aunt Prudence was the nicest aunt ever children knew. They all knew her fondness for pussy willows and searched out the largest and eartiest for her. But she liked to get them for herself, and often went with them to gather these early treasures. Returning on one such occasion, with an armful of treasurc-trove, whom should she see approaching but her long-lost though never-forgotten childhood friend. Disregarding the surrounding group of wide-eved children, Harry Grinnell gathcred Pussy and her willows to- gether in a fond embrace, as he said: “I told you I'd come when the pussies were in bloom. They tell me at the house that my frequent letters have gone astray. I received none from you and was somewhat fearful of my re- ception. The village folk, however, told me vou were still Pussy Willow, and so I ventured to come to you. I have prospered in my undertakings in the far west, but they have no pussy willows there, I mean to carry mine with me on my return if she will con- sent.” Evidently that consent was obtained, for after several happy weeks at the Willow was transplanted Every year her loving little friends send her a box of the cholcest pussies to remind her of the New England &pringtime. Truth is one of the things which can- not be polluted; hence, the source of truth is not open to suspicion. Truth always has and alwa; will express itself In mysterious No man, no race, mo nation, can claim to pos- sess all truth and speak with truth. Receiving a new truth has been said to be adding & new sense to one's self and a new sense would he oftener add- ed wire men what they profess to be instead of something else. What makes a child more weicome in a hovel than in a palace? In the| natural order of things it seems as if the place for children to multiply is where there is the most comfort and the largest opportunity for them; but we notice that the largest families in this country are being reared by men and women in the tenements, Love| and misery appear to walk hand in| hand oftener than they should; but they do not walk in vain. From hovels | have risen vresidents,and from walifs gathered from the streets have come governors and statesmen. By an un- written Jaw, the boy born lowest down seems to be endowed with most talent, and to be blessed with the greatest energy and persistence.

The observance of Lent just at hand | is general enough to command some at- tention even from thoee not particular- | ly concerned, Even if one be not a| churchman himself, he doubtless has| among his associates some who are, and can hardly avoid certain impres- | slons of this season of religious de- voutness, The church bells ring and| services are multiplied, There is some| moderating of the round of social gai- ety. We note that considerable numbers of the population observe, during these 40 days, prescribed periods of fasting. refrain from certain kinds of | food on certain days and on certain days they eat practically no food at all. bodied in the church's programme in anclent and modern times. that the iife of the spirit thrives best when the body is denied. Now my neighber, Brown, a hearty and matter of fact man, asks in per- fect good faith wherein the sense of a | custom like this may lle. What is the | justification for fasting, he asks. And | the few conslderations 1 present to| Brown may interest a larger audience. Probably an occasional and judiclous regimen of fasting on hygienic grounds alone would benefit a good many of us, to suggest one immediate and practical advantage of the custom. Among the more fortunately situated of the popu- lation at least the harm resultant from stuffing is greater than that from starving. To put & wholesome check on the stomach even though it be for only a part of the year would prove a genuine health measure for thousands of Americans. But Brown, admitting as much as this, still presses his inquiry as to the distinctively religious value of the cus- tom. I confess there is a perfunctory view of the matter sometimes obtain- ing which seems to me without found- ation, The attitude, for instance, which permits one form of healthful food as being religiously allowable while an- other form, equally healthful, is con- demned as belng religiously onemnve, does not appeal to my judgment. On this point the jocose query of Jona- than Swift would seem to be unanswer- able, ‘Who can believe with common sense A bacon slice gives God Offense: Or how & herring has a charm Almighty vengeance to disarm? ‘Wrapped up in majesty divine, Does He regard on what we dine? But fasting. as & symbol of spiritual AN IDLER. humility, as suggesting abandonment of pride and resolute conquering of the flesh has an.abundant justification. IL is ¢imply a denial of the body that the spirit may have a chance, “I keep my body under,” said the great char- acter we know as the Apostle Paul. He would not allow physical appetites to permit the body to master the soul. And it will be a sorry day for the world when men generally refuse to follow that example, declining to make any physical sacrifice for the greater good of clear moral vision, of a spirit- ually sensitive mind. Let fasting be a matter of the spirit and not an outward form merely. ‘Whether you eat meat or eat fish, ob- serve all thevappointed days or obgerve none of them, be zealous at least to refrain from any habit mental, or phy- sical, which in your better moments you know to be injurlous. Refrain from speaking unkindly of your neigh- bor, refrain from envious or impure thoughts, refrain from taking unfair advantage in business or sport, refrain from books that merely parade evil, cease from neglect of those means of spiritual culture that have always meade men strong. This is the kind ot fast that will do the whole world good. A poet of three centuries ago, Robert Herrick, puts it pretty plainly: Is this a faste—to keep The larder leane and cleane From fat or veales and sheepe? Is it to quit the dish Of flesh, yet still to fill The platter high with fish? No: 'tis a faste to dole, Thy sheaf of wheat and meat Unto the hungry soule. To show a heart grief rent To starve thy sin, not bin And that's to keep thy Lent. THE PARSON. Bible Question Box Your Bible the first six verses of the fifth chapter of James? (. G. 8.
