Der*truylnff the Beautiful.
It is timely to recall now one of the
Chautauqua lectures on the newer and
hi^Ler aim of education. In which were
advanced some Interesting ideas which
should have the attention of guardian*
and instructors of youth. Said the lec
turer:
The old idea that It is a beautiful sight
to see children gathering large bunches
of wild flowers because they love the
flowers was based on an Immoral prtn-
ciple. It is surely false training to teach
a child that because he loves a thing he
therefore bns a ri^ht to destroy Its life
If I tra i m
boy when young that he
should pall In- flower anal sacrifice Its
life and hearty to his flower love I am
doing a 1 that 1 a an to put Into his life
the feel u that he has a right to sacri
fice to IU t-.vn personal gratification the
things he lov-s.
Aside from the effect upon the mind
of rhe child, the practice—by no mean»
confined to children—of gathering in
discriminately ami in wholesale fash
ion any anj every wild flower that
adorns ti »* country’ landscape is ruth
less desecration and downright barba
rism. There teems to lie a general im
pression that the wild growths of the
fields and forest» have no rights, and
the result has is-en the practical exter
mination of many plants, lieautiful and
valuable, that ought to be abundant
close to every village and even to ev
ery city. The average person- and wo
men are worse offenders in this respect
than men—on seeing a fern or flower
with no obvious owner proceeds to
pick it. nor Is be or she overcareful not
to utterly destroy the plant.
Notable victims of sentimental van
dalism are the arbutus and the maiden
hair fem. These and many other
plants on<-e common in nearly every
little belt of woods close by to the town
now linger only in places most nearly
inaccessible and least frequented by
these flower vandals.
The irritating thing Is that the bar
barians who destroy the flowers imag
ine that they are virtuously engaged
and demonstrating a fine sentiment of
love for the beauties of nature. They
are simply desecrating nature.
One of the lights of the Paris Acade
my of Medicine recently entered a
sharp protest axainst reckless opera
tions for appendicitis by surgeons. He
•ays that a physician should first de-
clare the existence of tbe disease and
the necessity for an operation. Sur-
geons often mistake other anti les*.
serious maladies for appendicitis.

E. J. Gray, representing the city

making an examination of the main, of
the Mt. Tailor Water Co. This is laung

RESIDENCE OF H. B. DICKINSON, MONTAVILLA
One of Montavilla’s progressive citizens.
I want you. my d irllng. my darling!
I’m tired with care and with fret.
I would nestle In silence beside you
And all but your presence forget.
In the hush of the happiness given
To those who through trusting have
grown
To the fullness of lovs In contentment.
But 1 am alone.
call you. my darling. my darling!
My volca echoes back on the heart;
stretch my arms to you In longing.
Anal. Io, they fall empty apart!
whisper th»- aueet words you taught I me.
The words that wo only have known.
Till the blank of the dumb air 1« bitter.
For I am alone.
I reed you. my darling, my darling'
With Its yearnings my very heart aches;
The load that divide, tia weighs harder;
I shrink from the jar that It makes.
Old Borrows rise up to beset me;
01*1 doubts make my spirit their own.
Oh. com« through the darkD' HS and save
m«.
For I am alone.

Ths Lost Child.
It was far to go for the little fellow.
And I think It was dark out there

That sweetened his earthly air.
It was far to go. It was dark. I know,
And It broke my heart that It should
so.

Or between « star ¡and a star

Nor measure at last how far.
