All too common is the appearance in court of the husband charged with desertion or non-suppoert, and equally frequent are the Instances where such accused are sent to jail, either through sentence or lack of money to pay fines, and the greatest hardship falls upon the family at home. Every community knows the situation, and much inter- est will therefore. center about the put- ting into practice, and the effect of Pennsylvania’s new law for the over- coming of such conditions. It is now on trial in Philadelphia where six de- serting husbands have been. commit- ted to the house of correction for a period of three months to put in their time at hard work and from their earnings at such work sixty-five cents | each day will be deducted and paid to the wife. Thus is the accused made to undergo the same kind of reformatory treat- ment which a jail would give and at the same time he is being made to work and provide for his family. The importance of this step in behalf of those dependent upon such heads of families is readily recognized. It Is a provision which meets the situation properly whatever the offense for which punishment in jail is required. Jail sentences too often mean a com- fortable time and good living under restraint for those who are being pun- hed but hardships and suffering of various degrees of severity for their families, until charity steps in. The test of Pennsylvan new law there- fore has an interest for every state in the union.

It is not only extremely hazardous for chil- dren to be allowed to use them, bu* it is equally dangerous practice for qults. However much caution is used here are always conditions and extra trains which cannot be anticipated There are laws against such trespass but they are seldom enforced. The wisdom of making the law do its part in the prevention of lives thus sacri- ficed being realiged in Canada of late and the imposing of fines and jat sentences have resulted. turally this attempt to aid in the preserv tion of life is not popular but it founded upon good sense.

The person who does not know how to earn dollars, or how to keep them, cannot see as much in five dollars as the one who earns them can see in one. A spendthift will al- ways smile when any one speaks of a hardened dollar for that sounds like a Jjoke to him. A dollar measured by the time it took to earn it must look dif- ferent than the dollar measured by the time it took to spend it It is hard earned dollars that develop manhood, and easy won dollars that promote worthlessness. Moneyruins all to whom it falls if they have not been schooled as to its worth and proper way to use | it. Easy money paves the way for want later in life. The way to find out the worth of a dollar is to try to borrow one. It is the dollar owed that may be- | come a fury to the debtor, for it is the dollar the collector and the sheriff keep on the hot trail of—a debtor's misery is their balm. Strange, isn’t it?. The man who has too many friends is sure to wake at last to ask himself whether he ever had a friend or not. Friendship is too often based upon what some one can | get from you, not what you may ex- | pect to get from them; hence, it takes but little adversity for professed friends | to be among those who feel capable of assing judgment upon your extrava- gance, or lack of wisdom, and who | blame rather than pity you. They do | not know there is an old proverb which reads there is a foolish corner even in | the brain of the sage, which confirms | the saying no man is perfect. It is a good plan not to expect too much of a friend, for if he is a true friend he will not fail to demonstrate at just the right time., Friendship never needs prodding, for it has repute for in- creasing our blessings and dividing our griefs. Old friends and old shoes add to the comforts of life. A friend does not have to be sent for in the hour of adversity, if he did Napoleon would never have said: ‘A faithful friend is the true image of Deity. There are men who are polite enough not to adhere strictly to the truth, a though in childhood they were admon- ished to tell the truth and shame the devil. Experience ieaves no doubt that shaming the devil is one of the things not included in the aim of man. As theologians have painted him it would be impossible to awaken in the devil either a sense of shame or pity We moderners know that the devil is never caught telling a lie when the truth will serve him better, for only week men do that. The world has long | ago pronounced liars past all | shame, heince the father of lies must be devoid of the equality which is said to indicate a hasty conscience. Some folks still believe that a lie well stuck to is better than truth wavering; and we all recognize the truth wavering commands no confidence. Plain truth may be one of the sublimest of things, but it has never been so recognized in diplomatic circles. Truth is always 4 good thing when it will not produce evil results, | pity the persons who have the hab- it of excusing themselves, they are | so much more conscious of their faults than the thinness of the excuses they make, which most any blind person can see through.

It takes more than three table- | spoons of conceit and the scnool ef | experience to develop a man. Learn- ing cannot be self obtained except in books where it was left recorded by a forerunner; and every book-maker contributes the ideas which makes the the individual's mind a store-house of facts that inspire him to achieve his place in life. Your “I am” is what it is because of the generations of “I ams” who have preceded you. The great inventions and creations of the past century could not have been a complished but for elementary dis coverfes some of which have been in existence for many centuries. If you think you are self-made in any sense forget it. Every good relation in life has helped you; and if you have won distinction by burning the midnight | ofl, or by unlimited industry, you have | only reaped what others have sown. There {is merit in endeavor; and achievement brings ample reward; but senseless ideas only subject their victims to hard Kknocks. | Isn't it queer that the man with the weakest memory cannot forget the | mean things he has done himseif. Nature seems to have keyed up life so that those who do not deserve to take comfort cannot get it however much they may have the K material things of earth. Meanness, as well as folly, carries with it its own penal- ties. No one can be guilty of little meannesses and not sense their ras ly kinship. It was Beecher who s “I have great hope of a wicked man, slender hope of a mean one. A wick- ed man may be converted and become a prominent saint. A mean one ought to be converted six or seven times.one | right after the other, to give him a fair start and put him on__equality | with a bold, wicked man.” The mean | man is the worst thing out of jail; | and the uneasiest mortal that ever tries to sleep at night. His chief | mental occupation is in keeping his own self-contempt a secret. 1 do not imagine that robin breast is a wonder to you; but he never seems to be less than that to me when I think of his capacity and usefulness. By actual, repeated ex- periments he has been found to eat twice his weight daily in_grubs to sus | tain life, while man to keep healthy does not consume one-fortieth part of his weight. One kept in captivity ate in earthworms a sufficient num- ber in a day to extend fourteen feet when placed end to end. If the aver- age man had an appetite like that it would require a quarter of a bullock daily to meet his needs, It is readily to be seen why insect-eating birds | are a protection to the crops; and why man should regard them as being of too much value as a stants to shoot them.

These two terms mean much the same, but how differently they are used! Which reminds me of Stephen Stoneham, whose home was in a Penn- sylva town. Stephen was certainly sel-conducted. Born of humble parent- age and reared in comparative poverty, his constant boast in manhood was that he was a self-made man, and to his credit be it said, that he had made a great success of it. He always claimed the right to de- cide for himself, and was certainly self-conducted in the plainest semse of the word. No one dared to advance an opinion in his presence, which was not in accordance with his pre-con- ceived notion. Such a one was pret- ty sure to be set to the right-abouts with an avowal on SNphen's part that he needed no advice as to his plans, he was capable of making them him- self, and should most decidedly pre- fer to do so. For all this he was quite a favorite with his acquaintaaces, business and otherwise, although his friends occa- sionally remarked that they would en- joy seeing him placed where he must obey another's will, and much _they wondered what the outcome would be. ve he would have apoplexy wre of some kind. as never had a wife to manage him,” laughed another. “He'd find out, if he was married, that his decision could not always be the final one.” “I should be sorry for the woman, at all events,” remarked a third. "She Would never dare say her soul was her own. . In middle life he decided he wanted a home of his own, and a wife to pre- side over it. His selection for a bride was Blanche Edgerton, a lady much his junior, whose plastic character he thought could be moulded to meet his demands, for of course he expected to be the head of the house, and should show by his superior wisdom that he understoad the best course to be taken in all its arrangements The young lady accepted his offer, and received the congratulations of her friends, which in some cases were | condolences. “How can vou venture to marry one s or “I am not afraid,” w ply of the bride-to-be. the usual re- ie seems very fond of me.” “You are tain of every comfort, at any admitted another, “for he is independently rich, but these self-made men are apt to be rather | autoeratic in their home “I have no fear,” was the response. “You just watch and se | Even her parents felt that their | daughter took quite a risk upon her- self, and though they felt pleased with | the match in all other respects, stily in the matter.

She had noticed that Blanche had seldom failed to have her own way at home in spite of sition, and felt t she ed to manage for herself. The wedding day appeared and pass- ed without friction of opinion. Sweetly submissive to all his wishes, Blanche made no attempt at any change of plan, when, he announced that wedding ense, and he thought best to go immediately to their own home . A keen observer all oppo- ould be trust- Self-Conducted or ll’enonnlly Conducted urged | as might have noticed that a quick flash of bright brown eyes indicated a little more than passing feeling on her part. Later on in the season those big,brown eves were turned pleadingly upon Stephen, and he was told that the time had come for their wedding journey, as it had been omitted till then, and somehow he found himself arranging for a companion on his next business trip to Washington, then in its gayest season. It would have cost him less had it been taken at the time of their wedding. The following year Blanche present- ed him with a son and heir. The proud father felt that all should be done for the boy which money could do, and mentally promised himself to earn a fortune for the child to receive in case of his own death. He was willing to économize for the boy's sake, and took it for granted that Blanche would feel the same. The first open opposition which he had met from his meek wife came when he wished to name the child Stephen. “No,” said his wife quietly but firmly “He shall be called so for a middle name if you wish, but his name is to be Reginald” and so he was christen- ed, Reginald Stephen, . His father at- tempted for a time to call him Stephen, but found himself at last yielding even that notion, to the great satisfaction of his wife. “No need of nursery maid, grumbled Stephen, “my mother had none for any of her babies. She believed every mo- thér should take care of her own ba- bies, and I am of the same opinion.” “Times differ,” contended his wife,” and I tell you plainly that I need a nursery maid, and have already en- gaged one. You can well afford it, and must make the best of it, for I will have it so. “Stephen opened his eyes at this an- nouncement from his .wife. He had not supposed her capable of so firm a decision, but he withdrew his objection, and consented to the added expense. This seemed to be a turning-point in their domestic economy. After this when Blanche desired anything for the household, she demanded it without hesitation, telling Stephen plainly that she had submitted to his will as long as she intended to, and though she meant not to be extravagant, she should not help him to hoard up his money by denying herseif and her children present comfort and pleasure. For there were other children as time went on, and increased expense in consequence. Blanche was a model housekeeper and a wise mother. No one could ac- cuse her of failure in either direction, and her husband’s comfort and happi- ness were her first thought, but Steph- en was no longer self-conducted. He began to realize that he was personally conducted. Among his men associates, the change was noticed. He no longer erted his opinion as in former times. Have you thought haw changed Stoneham has become?” said they to each other. His wife and family have made a great difference in the man. He is much more genial and less au- tocratic than of old.” Nothing like a wife and bables to ke the kinks out of a man,” was the and they say he Is quite in his tastes, a model house- but everybody knows his wife him and his house to her own holder, rules nd.

EVERY DAY REFLECT:ONS LIMITS There are limits to our mental abil- ity as well as to our physical limits not only of circumstance and of oppurtun- ity but actuall yof capacity. It almost seems that there are limits to desire— not to desire in the abstract, but to any single desire. For when any special wish of ours is gratified we find sooner or later, that it does not al- together satisfy us; we persuade our- selves that this was not what we re- and we go on toa re- newal of the same desire, with always those invisible bounds lying around it. Even it seems that our sorrow is dim- ited, but in this case with somie of us tether is a very long one . Some few reach it and their hearts break. There are many times when it is well for us to remember this truth. It aves us from presumption, from at- tempting the hopeless, from wasting our energies on things we' can never accomplish. It is with this as it is with our lives we know they are bounded that an end must come, but we do not see that end; and we pass many years serenely ignoring our mor.- tality. On the whole, this is best for a foresight of the end might mere- stupify and reperss. So with the of our capabilitjes, there are ly limits many times when it i§ best to ignore them; because it is most probable that they ile further reach. off than we shall No Accounting for Taste.
