Many a young man or woman may be helped toward a noble life by fouling that some one expects good thinsrs of them. ..... ....v,., w .A IHU J'j JW1 U U ULUH friends, aud often a young per son will form an ideal in this way which later will bo realized, to some extent at least. My mind recalls a boy who was just com ing into manhood, a thousand miles from home, with tho money that he earned entirely at his dis posal. A woman several years his senior, seeing his danger of being drawn into undosirahlp friendships, gently warned him of some of the pi tf ills which surrounded him, at the same time telling him that sho felt sure that he would avoid them, as lie now understood them; and that sho fully trusted him and be lieved that ho possessed strength of character sullicieut to avoid them. 1 his young man now be gan to ihink, something that lie had never learned to do before The result was that he chose such friouds as ho thought would bo approved by his counselor, and eventually developed into a line manhood. A girl of fifteen, whose mother was not worthy the name, and who was in a state of great dis curagement and in a very trying position, was greatly helped by being told by a friend that she believed tho girl was eijiial to the situation, and could be trusted to do what was right.

It is hard to bolleve Unit the Gov ernment olllclals are correct when they announce that there are three millions of so-called fiends In this country that Is to gay, victims of Bonie.of the dendly dnifis which most people know only by namo. Co caine, morphine and other such de vastating drtiBS are being used In en larged quantities, and roccnt events In this city show how wldo-Bpread their use Is becoming. Here, doclares tho Philadelphia In quirer, Is a chance to do some reform .In a vigorous way. There seems to be enough law on the subject If It Is vigorously enforced, but it Is not truo that punishment Is now severe enough. The use of these drugs can be suppressed only by maintaining a strict control over the sale of them. The worst feature of them all is that they are so Insidious. It Is a long time before the victim Is known and then it is apt to bo too late. It does seem as If the Federal Gov eminent and the States could work togothor so as to make it Impossible for unlawCul dispensers to cet a sim ply. When a man has acquired a do- sire ror these drugs he will make al most any sacrifice to secure thorn. Al cohol at Its worst Is a bIuidIo matter compared with cocaine and othor dopes. If a child, younger or older. cau be impressed with tho idea that father or Mother or Auntie feels a certain pride and confi dence in his or her character, it is a shallow nature indeed that will not oe put moro or less upon its mettle thereby, and try to fulfil the expectations of these elder person, loung people must have an aim in life, and if in early me they learn to reach foith to ward worthy things, it will be easier later to withstand the temptations that are sure to beset them.

Of course Jt Is no nnswer. to the arguments of the Enerantlsts that languages have never been made de liberately, but have been of natural growth. The fart that there Is no precedent for Esperanto doos'not do tract from Its possible merits, argues the New York Times. But time is valuable and the time employed by an English-speaking person in learning Esperanto might be hotter employed in learning French or German or both. With command of one ot those two lan guages In addition to English he could make his way with little trou bio In all civilized countries; with both ho would be In touch with tho whole world. Thon new avenucB ot culture would be opon to him, and the world's literature would bo at his commnnd. In time the wholo world may have one language, but It will never be Esperanto. The more fervent advocates of the new and ngreeablo Jargon claim too much for it. I's moderute upholders do not convince us of its utility. Springs is spending a few days with her parents.
