G. W. Muckley, pastor of the
Linwood Boulevard Christian church,
ignorant.
{evening was spent with music and | The world to him is a closed book, be- |
cause of his lack of experience. How-
ever, it is impossible to put old heads |
| becoming indifferent to the beauties
about them, as they become accus-.
tomed to the pictures and statuary. |
“But the visitor who does not visit |
|
these galleries so often sees the beau-
ties about him, and fully appreciates |
everything he sees,” he continued. |
; “The world is much like an art gallery, |
but by no means so safe. The young |
man walking through the world is at- |
tracted by everything he sees and is |
apt to be led away by the glamor.”
He further spoke of the parent love
for children, and the readiness with
which a mother or father will condone
an evil in a son. He spoke of King
David's inquiry of his son, Absalom,
after his son's strife: “Is the young
man, Absalom, safe?” David had in-
structed his generals to deal gently |
with Absalom, but one of them, con-
forming to a message from God, killed
Absalom while he hung suspended by
the hair from an oak tree. While Da-
vid mourned the death of his son all
Israel rejoiced.
Pernicious Doctrine Condemned.
The pastor cited instances of men
who upheld this motto and who finally
went to the penitentiary for dishon-
esty. :
“The most pernicious doctrine of
which I know,” said Mr. Muckley, “is
that which teaches a young man
should sow his wild oats. It is because
of this teaching that we have so many
mental wrecks. The Bible tells us that
which a man sows, so shall he reap.
Many fail, just because they have not |
prepared in youth for the responsibili-
ties of life.
“The parents should teach their chil-
dren ‘the secrets of life, rather than
have them learn on the streets. I
should favor even the placing of signs
of warning to young men where traps
exist. As the United States govern-
ment has placed signs of warning at
the entrance of Death Valley so should
the welfare board or some other civic
body place warnings over every ‘house
of death’ that is in the pathway of
our youth.
“The youth and all of us must have |
amusement, but care should be exer-
cised in the selection of those amuse-
ments: A playing card may look inno-
cent enough, but it is the tool of the
gambler. Church people who play
bridge whist lose interest in the church
and set bad examples for others. Any |
form of amusement, such as theaters, |
that scoffs at virtue, is dangerous.”
Most Polite Thing.
There is only one thing more po-
lite than inquiring after the health of
a friend whom one meets, and that is
[to listen, while he tells you.”—E, O. Jey

INDIANS FACE EXTINCTION
256 Survivors of Famous Tribe Men-
aced by Tuberculosis in
Iowa.
Washington, Jan. 8.—Extermination
of the once famous tribe of Fox In-
dians of Iowa, unless efforts of the
Covernment to check disease among
them prove successful, is predicted by
Dr. Truman Michelson, of the Bureau
of Ethnology of the Smithsonian In-
stitution. In an address before the
Anthropological Society of Washing-
ton, Dr. Michelson declared that tu-
berculosis is now common among the
tribe, and that hardly a family exists
some member of which is not afflicted
with trachoma. In 1821 a census of
the Fox tribe showed a population of
3,000, Dr. Michelson said, whereas at
present it numbers only 356.

tucky, candidate for the vice-presiden-
cy on the gold Democratic ticket of
1896 and leader of the Law and Order
League that helped to put down night
riding in Kentucky, is dead at his
home, Glen Lily, in Hart county.
Death was due to old age.

The breeding of potatoes for differ- |
ent kinds of cooking might even be
found profitable. A variety specially |
suited for baking is needed; another
for frying; a close-textured tuber is
in some demand for salads. The

growing is most prosperous in these
sections. This should become more
universal.
Crop rotation is of fundamental
importance to the potato crop in con-
