There are only 3S7S restrictive and semi-restrictive laws on the statutes, which Is 2866 too many. Humanity . ought to be able to operate on the Ten Commandments, and the Golden Rule, but nobody ever made a campaign issue out of them. A man needs nerve to get what lie wants; a woman needs only nerves. After all, why worn.' about the breaking of laws? It is so easy to make new ones. At ten, the things a giri chiefly enjoys are dolls and feeling sorry for herself., "Wo blame human nature for our meanness, but we take personal credit for our piety. SILLY MARY ALBOP! (Philadelphia Public Ledger) "Dear Joseph: My great concern for your prosperity In this world and your happiness hereafter have induced me to give you my advice in writing; hop-P ing you will read it frequently, and Impress it on your mind, and regulate your conduct by it. ... In the first place, I wish you to have a due sense of your dependence on God; and that will Induce you to be careful not to be offensive in thought, word or deed. . . Never mention the word of God but with reverence . . You must never Jest with anything sacred or religious. . . Attend church constantly, and be have with decency when there. . . Carefully avoid all profane language, for it is very wicked, and no pleasure or advantage can arise from It. "Kiecnte the business alloted to you with the utmost exactness and fidel ity. . .

'Avoid ganielng ot every kind; It Is a pernicious vice; many have been ruined by it; shun It In the smallest degree, for It-will lead you Impercept ibly on to destruction. . .

MARY ALSOI'. "30th March. 1789. "Josoph W. Alsop." A conservative is one who believes in everything that will pre serve his present advantage. A wagon is guided by the tongue out in front; an automobile fre ouently is guided by the tongue on the back seat. The way to become n lender is to discover a grievance and weep about it loudly and publicly. A woman's idea of mean temperature is one that postpones the wearing of her new spring suit. As a general thing, progress waits npniftlie elimination of some ass whose intentions arc good. The ancients used ivory in making statues, only in the making of statutes. The moderns use it Correct this sentence: "Mamma, dear," cried the small boy in bed, "you forRot to give me my castor oil." Ripp.ingRhumos ft fy WeltMafen MISPLACED KINDNESS. aafcHi flZ W am stretched upon my bed, and fierce disease its iif!n 1 anguish lends, there is one thing I greatly dread the kindly visits of my friends. I know their motives are tho best, the would my convex pains allay ; with . eheer-up talk and spi'inghtly jest they fain would shoo my boils away. Alas, it only makes me mild to see my friends nil feeling fine, while my condi tion is so bad the undertakers fall in line. My friends come breer ing to my door, all full of health and strength and vim, while I am bunged up, sick and sore, with pale green aches in every limb. They see me stretched upon my couch, and turn all kinds of sun shine loose, and then they think I am a grouch because I tell them to vamoose. They arc so buoyant, blithe and spry, I see them prancing to and fro; I know they're climbing hills on high that I could never make in low. If some old cripples sought my room, anil mingled throbbing groans with 'mine, they might alleviate the gloom, and ehi er this jaded soul of mine. Hut all who come are husky boys who might athletic triumphs win; they make an optimistic noise, and wonder wliy I do not grin. According to a French professor, the English langungo in a modified form Is designed to become tho uni versal language. Dr.KI N GS NewDisgoiy aV-C ated temporary conditions of need and dependency. One of the most satisfactory cases bas been that of an ambitious and enereetic widow in an outlying district who has several children and is mak ing a brave stnirgle to ken her home together. The Red Cross wan request el to investigate these conditions and as a result the widow's tension has been increased to give her adequate help. Child welfare and juvenile delin qiieney problems have entered in:o the family hk lal work problems dur ing the montb, giving splendid oppor tunity for constructive work in self help and in the prevention of abnor mal social conditions. The community agencies are giving fine support to tbe social program ol the Red Cross, which is the peace pro gram of extended service and which parallels the work of a county welfare bureau.
