' Wise men of our times say that a child’s character and, largely its career, is in a great degree shaped by cdbew seven years old. If this is so, the revival of ip at “the children’s altar” is about the most important Work that any church can prosecute.

AG, THE FURTH DEATH Editor The Star: Jacob Furth, the greedy traction magnate, ts dead, but not forgotten. I notice that every paper in Se attle had nothing but bouquets for him after he passed away, While alive he was subjected to much criticism, While in many respects he was a worthy citizen, yet his death does not relieve him of the blame for many stolen nickels taken into the coffers of this gigantic traction company. His wealth is estimated at $2,000, . Probably the bulk of that came from the pockets of the work- ingmen. This shrew fidancior em- ployed artifice to a huge advantag: No wonder he amassed such a for- tune. B. L PRETTY TOUGH 0 POOR MR.
