of Prof. .1. A. Metiiinfbry, suporlntonil
ent of tlio public schools of Sharon, l'a.,
on cigarette sliiokilic;:
"If parents could sou tlio effects of this
noxious habit iih see It, and uh our
teachers hou It, they would not rent un
til they had succeeded In keeping tho
cigarettes from their boys. It In ruin
Inir our boys' health, mentally und

largo majority ol oases tho teacher will

and wo Htrivo to teach tln;m the evil
cITccM, but notwltliHtandiuc tlii tho
growth of tho habit Ih nlurmini;. Par
ents sometimes complain oocuiiho their
boys aro not making nioro rapid ro
KrcBR and lay tho hlnmo on tho teacher.
No teacher can dovolop tho mind of a
pupil when he Ih taking into IiIh nyHlem
a poittou that Is rulnlm; lib mind, und
niuklmr a wreck of hU body. Thu irreat
enemy to tho public Hehmils, the chief
obHtaele to huilUlnir character is tlio
cigarette( and I wlnh our neWHpupein
would arotiHO the nuullu to action and
ImprcBS upon them tho fact that thin Ih
the moHl imHirtant qucHiion 01 tne
hour, and public sentiment may be such
that a boy will fuel it Ih u dUgi'iieo to
bo Been with a cliraret to, rnthcr than
feel as ho dims that it is making a man
of him. The Question Is often atikud,
Where do tboy get tho cigarettes when
thoro Is a luw uguliiHt the huIo of them?
It Is uot at all probublo that they are
purchased by older pernonH and (Tlv
en to the boys. Some persons are un
tloubtedly Helling thorn illegally, and
they should bo detected nnd punlnhed
to the full extent of tho law. It Ih
hoped that the iooplo will intercut
thomselves In this mutter."
"There is always a remedy for a heavy
hoart," writes Ruth. Ashmoro In tlio
March Ladicn'' Home Journal. "It may
be in work it oftenest is. It may bo
in thinking out tho joys that have been
given to you, and tho sorrows from
which you have been saved. It may bo In
helping others by sympathy, or in
whatever way holp Is most noeded.
But the heavy hoart can always bo mado
light if self is forgotten, and the needs
of others are remembered, and us fur as
possible, relieved. Not one of us can
learn to become light-hearted in a day,
or a week, or u month, or a year, for it
is the lesson of life, this knowing how
to lift our hearts up und give from them
help uuto those who uro in need. . It is
a good fight this one against allowing
one's self to be submerged in personal
griefs it is a good fight, and out of it
you can come conqueror if you will.
Do you intend to give up the light and
fall by the wayside overcome by a heavy
heart, or to go along through life as a
brave woman should? You must decide
this early in life. And you will, I feel
sure, decide to do that which is right,
and then your heart will never be heavy
nor your conscience disturbed, unless
you fall. And when you fall, thank
God, you can always rise again if you
keep up a brave heart." -

make It a point to read tho pa pels each

future. Not only rend, but rememb 'r
what you rend, und think over it nfter
you hnvo rend It. Just ut the present
time there is much exciting news in the

between Spain und thu United States,
and every liberty loving boy or girl in
our hind should rend und carefully study
tho situation, .lust try this plan boys
nnd girls nnd you will astonish your
selves and your friends in a short, time.
Read "current news," not trashy novels
or silly story paMirs us they only serve
to confuse t he mind nnd weaken the in
tellect by crowding out that which is
good and bcncllcal and filling the bruin
with wild plum tunics und foolish notions,
rendering it unfit for anything else.
Read and read much. Use thu talents
God bus given you in a manner fitting
to this intelligent land of ours. Read
good literature Eschew trashy novels
and you will soon find you aro treading
wisdom's ways, which aro ways of pleas
antness and paths of peace. Below we
give you a clipping of un essay onythe
mouth, written by a boy.
THE MOUTH.
A boy was compelled by his teacher
to wrlto an essay on "the mouth," for
Homo Infraction of tho school discipline,
and this is what he said: "Your mouth
is thu front door to tho face; It is the
apcrturo to the cold storage of your
anatomy. Some mouths look like
peaches and cream, some look like a
hole In a brick wall to admit a new door
or window. The mouth is a hotbed for
toothache, and the bung hole of oratory.
The mouth is tho crimson alslo to our
liver; it is patriotism's fountain, and
the tool chest for plo. Without a
mouth the politician would be a wander
er on tho fucu of the eurth and go down
in an unhonnrcd grave. It is the gro
cer's friend, the orator's pride and the
dentist's hopo. It puts some men on the
rostrum and some In jail. It is tempta
tion's lunch counter when attached to a
maiden, and tobacco's friend when at
tached to a man. Without it married
fife would bo like a summer dream and
a dude would lose half his attraction."
FLORIDA.
William M. Slngorly, editor of the
Philadelphia .Record, died suddenly at
bis home In Philadelphia Sunday after
noon from heart trouble. Mr. Singer
ly'a physician says: "Mr. Singerly was
and Inveterate smoker, and for years
had suffered from What Is called a to
bacco heart. I forewarned his family
that some day he would die suddenly In
just the tame way ho has. He knew
that his heart was weak, but always
laughed at the thought of danger.
The end has come, however, In just the
manner ! bad predicted and expected."
