In tho development of the mineral springs project the women of Ash land are about to realize their fond est hopes. Ashland Is going to be developed along civic and aesthetic lines. For with the watering resort development must come the beautify ing of the place. The general rose planting day, the clean-up daya, all look toward making Ashland the city beautiful. Thousands of peopk' will j bo attracted here to drink our health- giving waters, to bask amidst our; beautiful scenery and enjoy our line; climate. Strangers they will be, and the Impresslous they get of Ashland will count for much, not only in In-1 duclng their friends to visit this re-1 sort, but that they may become j charmed enough with Ashland to set-i tie here permanently. The ladies of; Ashland are to be congratulated on j their unceasing labors to this end. ! The Civic.

Music and laughter were heard in 'a voom in Philadelphia, 100 miles away; aboard the steamship North i Star, distant 60 miles at sea, and also aboard the steamship Antilles 5 5 miles out. There are wires be tween New York and Philadelphia, but this conununciation of uncorked music, with its finale of rollicking l laughter, did not pass over any wire There are. wires from New York across the Atlantic, but they are fath I oius beneath the hulls of the ships that plow the briny deep.

As "To the pure all things are pure," so to the malicious and ill-tempered all things are black, unlovely and of ill-repute. Words are also the higns of thoughts, and if the thoughts be kind and good the words will be kind and gentle, free from malico and unnharitableness. There is nothing that so refines the face and mind as the constant presence of good fthoughts. !

' Steaming in exultant strength across the blue Atlantic on its first voyage to the New World, the largest ' and finest passenger craft thnt ever j floated, the Vaterland, from Ham I burg, is now plowing the deep, i It is as long as from the postofflce to the Elks Temple. Its carrying ca pacity is as great as that of forty long freight trains. It could house an army. It has the sumptuonsness, the luxury and the conveniences of the finest hotel. Moreover, its builders have exhaust ed the wit and cunning of man in their endeavors to make it safe. It is really two ships in one. so that, should disaster befall the outer skin, the inner would keep the great boat afloat. "I'nsinkable," the experts say. So they said of the Titanic. Meanwhile, across the paths of travel in the north Atlantic, drifting down in glitter or fog. stretches a great Ice floe. 450 miles long, some sea captains say. Luckily this menace to human saf ety is known and charted. Fortunately the seadog on the Va terland's quarterdeck is watchful and careful. In the zone of danger there will be no "full speed ahead." At staggering cost our mariners have learned a lesson of caution. Yet' let's hope there'll be no test of the great greyhound's endurance; no mishap to pit the puny strength of man in a death grapple with the lli-inging l" of Mothers. A young person has been writing an article on the bringing up of moth ers. Thirty years ago mothers were not brought up; they just grew. They wore caps early, gave up dancing when their children were in short frocks and knickerbockers, and de veloped all sorts of Incorrect ideas about chaperons and flirtations. For merly the young idea was trained the way it should go. Now the old tree is pruned and pared into shape. Girls have assumed the responsibility of looking after their mothers. Mothers are kept to see to a well-ordered house, coax refractory fathers and at tend to bores. They must, moreover, be ornamental, look well at the head of the table, dress becomingly, keep up with the fashions, look nice when the girls take them out with them, and smile encouragingly at the young men. Nor are their morals forgot ten. Frequently one hears a girl say: "It is an interesting show, but not one I'd care to take my mother to." i might of nature, but the happiest of rne man on iniru ioui ui'i-mic chance when he stole home. j He had to travel twice as far as, the ball and he knew that the ball ; could travel eight times as fast as he could.

The root cation room will be set aside for exhibits of ore and minerals of every kind. The committee on exhibits Is mak ing an effort to secure samples of everything of a mineral nature in this country, and hopes to make it the most complete ever shown on the coast. To this end A. L. Lamb, as chair man of the exhibit, is devoting almost his entire time. He is especially A young woman should be In heatr what she seems to be in life. Her words should correspond with her heart. The smile of her face should be the smile of her heart. The light of her eye should be the lisht of her ; soul. She should abhor deception, she should loathe intrigue, she should have a deep disgust of duplicity. Her life should be the outspoken language of her mind, the eloquent poem of her soul, speaking in rhythmic beauties the intrinsic merit of inward purity. Purity antecedes all spiritual attain ments and progress. It is the first and fundamental virtue In a good I character, it is the letter A in the! moral alphabet, it is the first step in the spiritual life, it is the Alpha of the eternal state of soul which has no Omega. The terror that a mother feels lest she may lose her baby often clings to her through life, as It did to the aged woman of 97 years, who. when they told her that her son of 80 was dying, said: "Ah. woe is me!
