TT HAT self-micrllleo may become a clangorous and really tin wholesome practlco Is fro fluently evident through tho unrens fining dovntlon of fond mothers. onyn a magazino wrltor: "Tho rommonlv iiiiiIhihI 'unir. sncrlllclng mother sho who never nn nor child do anything, who con tinuously showers attention upon It, Who COIISolOHHly walls lllimi nml ilnna things for her child Is (ho mother who rroquoiuiy romplaliiH that ohll lron are a groat care, and that It Ih dinii'iilt to maiingo them. Sho Is tho miothor, who, In but a few years. Is frequently changed from n young, energetic woninn Into a worn, ner vous creature; she Is prematurely aged." Kverybody hns scon mothers of -whom this Is true. And the results arc usually far from tmtlsfiictory. Over-Indulged children grow to no copt this kind of Hiicrlllco as a mat ter or course, to demand It. In ract. unl naturally become selllsh and do jpondont to an Irritating degree. The mother who really caret) most for hor child's welfare will refrain rrom linking herself Its coustaut slave.

If tho owners of tho Toronto railway ever entertained the Idea of fighting for nn extension of their franchise they liavo abandoned It long eie this. 1'ublle opinion rip ens slowly in Toronto. Civic op eration of street cars had fow friends In Toronto in 1891. To day there are probably not 20 per cent of tho electors who could bo brought to the polls against that principle. There Is but ono danger to bo guarded against. Mnyor Hockcn and Commissioner Harris, who will have much to do In the next yonr or two with the Inauguration of tho various civic car lines must be on tho watch ngalnst extravnganco In operation. It Is hardly to bo expected that tho lines will pay at first. Perhaps there may be de ficits until the franchise In the center of tho city expires. Hut every dollar spent on operation should secure n dollar's worth of labor or material. Only by pro viding n good service- at the mini mum of cost will the civic lines JtiBtlfy their existence. A MAX AXD HIS SOX. AX AMYCDALACKOl'S VKTOHV. SCOItlO ono for tho humble, tho plain, tho ploboan prune. It lemalued for the modest and shrinking dietetic staple of Hie .boarding house and the eleeniosvn ary Institution to garner the llrst uipoclllo advantage on account of the new parcel post. Hitherto express companies have pinyed fast and loose with the gen Ho and substantial prune. inns much as that variety of ninygdiilacc ouh fruit thrives In chief abundance on tho Paclllc coast prunes have been real luxury In New York t'itv, lesplto their lowly reputation. Alid while countless million of famished mouths have cried aloud for prunes. Vromondoiis fortunes hae boon built on tho more transportation of tho iriiu rrom tne transcontinental path EVIOltY boy Is going to hnvo a confidant, some ono to whom he can tell his secrets and whisper his hopes nnd ambitions, which ho would not breathe to oth ers. This friend, this confidant, should bo his father. Any man would bo horrlflod at tho suggestion that ho would ruin his boy by neglect, that his ab sorption In business would result In the undoing or his owli sou. Hut, It Is tho easiest thing In tho world to forfeit n boy's confidence. It will only tako a little snub bing, n little scolding, n little Indif ference, n little unkind criticism, n little nagging and unrensonablencss to shut off forever any Intimacy be tween him and his boy. One of the bitterest things In many a man's llfo has been thu dis covery, after bo has made his mo ney. Hint he has lost his hold upon his boy, and he would give a largo part of his rortuno to recover this loss. It Is n most unfortunate thing for a boy to look upon his rather as a taskmnskor, Instead or a com panion, to dread meeting him be cause ho always expects criticism or scolding from him. Some fathers constantly nag, find limit, and never think of praising their soiiH or expressing nuy appre ciation of their work, even when they do It well. Yet there Is noth ing ho encouraging to a boy, es pecially If he Hiiils It hnrd to do what Ih right as real appreciation of Ills effort. This U a tonic to youth. Hoys thrive on praise. That Is why most of them think more of their mothers than their fathers because I help mothors nro moro considerate, more appreciative, more affectionate and do not hesitate to praise them when thoy do well. Tho confidential rolatlon botweeu a father and his son Is ono of tho most precious things In llfo. One should never lake chances of for feiting It. It costs something to keep It. but It Is worth everything to the father and to the boy. the Philadelphia North Amerlcnn ns saying In New York In November, 1911: I nut clearly of tho opinion Hint tho government owes It to tho business Interests and the famllv llfo of tho nation to tako possession of all tho telegraph companies. Tho people have a right to a protected service that only the government can give, to the use of wires without the delays that special Interests now secure at times and to tho lower rates now necessary and possible. Postmaster (lencrnl Hitchcock an nounced n year ago that he would recommend to congress tho acquisi tion of the telegraph lines of the country. Ills suggestion did not get rnr, being checked by tho president. Hitchcock pointed out that In titty or the leading countries In the world telegraph service was controlled by the government nt n profit nnd to the sntlsraetion of the citizens. It Is only In democratic America that tho government admits Itself Incompe tent to undertnko n work which pri vate capital finds bo remunerative. Operation of telegraph lines by tho t'overnmont would mean Im proved service and lower rates, a wider extension of tho system and moro economy of management. lOv ory postolllee would bo n tolegrnph olllco, every postbox would bo a de pository for telegrams, which could bo properly stamped beforo being de posited, Just ns n letter Is. Telegraph companies hajo boon reducing their rates by indirection, as if afraid to bo frank and open in their bids for moro business. "Night messages," "delayed deliver ies," "bargain tiny rates" and other such Innovations nro dcllcntcly worded devices to conconl reduction or rate?. Rut the profits oftho tele graph aro enormous, though their earnings probably do not rival tho fantastic Incomes of tho express companies. And tho Indirect re ductions have caused a great In crease In the volume of business. The United Stntcs government could, if It wore deemed tho wiser policy, tako over tho companies by condemnation proceedings, nnd as Plcrpont Morgan, for Instance would tako over a bank or n railroad and make the now property pay for It self out of Its earnings, Of course, thero will be furious objection, somo from tho consorvn tlvo olomont, which reluctantly nd mlts that the government can build n canal below the estimated costs, but will not admit that it can run a telegraph office. Hut chiefly Uio protest of outraged Interests will co mo from tho telegraph companies thomselves. It did not tako tho Uni ted Stntes a week to mnko a popular success of the parcel post. How long will It take to operate a telegraph Hue? Inevitably tho United Stntes will soon be seeking tho opportunity to answer that question. t W I T H T H E I I OAST AND TEA : (.ooi i:vi:xi.(.'. i .

"Home" Is Hint snored spot In which n woman wears out nil her old clothes and a man wears off his grouches and headaches.
