Au infallible test to find out whose children are hoodlums. Rook around your family circle of an evening about 7 o'clock. See if any of vour bovs are absent. Of course no one "for a mo ment would have the audacity (or true friendship) to tell you that he was one, but it you would only go where he was j ou wouiu pe almost sure to find him associating with them. Certainly pot! impossible that your boy should be one ! When you get this far you know whose boys are hoodlums, and that yours keep company with them. Remember the old aphorism about evil associations. If you are positive that he will not profit a great tieai uy ceiug out at night ana may possi bly learn evil, then it becomes vonr dotv to keep him at home. Associating with lather, mother and sisters is certainly company enough for boys of 12 and 15 years ot age. Exert vour authority whiln they are y ung; reniemhei the fable of the Oak and the Sapling. Parents, trouble im aiiciui ior sume oi von unless von net und that quickly. When three bovs 12 years of aim ean he tVn-iwl iiii, i.i lars worth of cigars, we ask onrself. Where did they get them? When we next hear, among the dozens of recent acts.of their stealing food from old Indians ind eating it., wo again ask ourself other questions, the answers come readily enough, and they certainly are not flatter ing aunui me i mures ot these youngsters, nor prophetic of much happiness for their parents.
