Parents Who Give Child All Desired Rim Risk of Wrecking Its Life BY MARTHA LEE I WONDER if parents realize how 'nuch unhappiness and misery and how much widespread harm they are doing to their children when they give them everything their hearts desire, as the fairy tales read. It is, in some respects, wonderful to see parents interested ip their children, and so fond of them, that they give them everything within their financial power to make them happy, to boost them along. But at the same time, that very act of kindness, and misdirected kiindness it most certainly is, is apt to bring those same children unhappiness, misery and discontent later in life.

If a boy, with a good education, with health and talent, is allowed to "live off his parents” indefinitely, it is bound, in time, to kill his ambition to ever make anything of himself. It is bound to affect his outlook on life and the responsibilities of life. One of the first and most important lessons to learn is that each and every one of us has a definite work to perform on this earth and I don’t mean finding things to amuse us constantly. It seems strange to me, that a fp ner, who has had to struggle through poverty and hardships, make sacrifices and live through lean years in order to attain financial independence, should consider *it part of his paternal duty to see that his son has nothing but ease and luxury; that the parent who has seen his own character built up under the battles he has fought with life, should surround his son with shock absorbers so that he might not have to become acquainted with hardship and poverty, not even enough to know the value of a dollar. The wrong he is doing that child of his does not, unfortunately, end in the home. It stretches out into his everyday life, and all those who come in contact with him are also affected by his attitude, if not directly, at least indirectly. Some day that boy will want to marry. What has there been in his life to prepare him for the hardships, the struggles of married life. What has there been to make him tolerant of others, thoughtful of others, responsible for others? It is a wise mother who thmks twice about her daughter becoming serious with a boy of this sorteven though it may not be the boy s own fault. I have a letter from a girl who Is in love with a young man of this type, a thoroughly fine boy, excepting that he has never known the responsibilities of life, has never felt the sting of necessity. Dear Miss Lee—X am very much In love with a young man whose home Is ‘several hundred miles from here, but the point is. I’ve known him for almost a year and although he does not work, he travels all the time, his parents furnishing him the necessary funds. He has traveled for the past five years and says he cannot stand to stay in one place very long; that he has not been home for more than two or three weeks at a time in this period of five years. My parents, learning this, did not approve. They believe there is something wrong that he hasn’t been home ar.d that he doesn’t have enough ambition to make his own living at his age, and be Independent of his father's financial assistance. The longer I think about that, the more convinced I am that It is true. But isn’t it really his parents’ fault for doing this for him. even though they are Wealthy, which I have heard. He doesn’t stay in Indianapolis very long at a time, but when he is here, he is very attentive and insists that I do not have dates with anyone else. I wouldn’t anyway, because I can’t see anyone else but him. In his leters, no matter how far away he is. he always writes me and makes some sort of mention regarding the dates he thinks I have. When he doesn't write me for a week or ten days, he will send a special delivery. What do you make of this? I would like to know if anyone else, besides myself thinks I am right in loving him and I sure do. PUZZLED. You did not mention how old he is, Puzzled, but I imagine he is still in his early twenties. It is a pity for the boy that his parents have spoiled him by making him not only a rover, but a lazy one at that. He’s just a sort of glorified tramp the way things are now. If you love him and you believe he loves you, can’t you make him see what a useless life he is leading, how little good he is doing for any one, and most especially himself, the way things are now? I do not blame your parents for not wanting you to become serious with the boy. He would not make a very satisfactory husband for you as things are now. Give him your friendship and your help, and try to make him see what a parasite he is, for even though his parents have all the money in the world, that would hardly justify his actions. Annual Convention Opens The annual convention of the Women’s Foreign Missionary Society of the Connersville district of the Methodist church opened today in the Greensburg Methodist church, with Mrs. J.

Acid Stomach

Excess acid is the common cause of indigestion. It results in pain and sourness about two hours after eating. The quick corrective is an alkali which neutrailzes acid. The best corrective is Phillips’ Milk of Magnesia. It has remained standard with physicians in the 50 years since its invention. One spoonful of Phillips’ Milk of Magnesia neutralizes instantly many times it volume in acid. It is harmless and tasteless and its action is quk£. You will never rely on crude

An excess of such acids overworke the kidneys in their effort to filter it from the blood and they become sort of paralyzed and loggy. When your kidneys get sluggish and clog you must relieve them, like you x-elieve your bowels, removing all the body's urinous waste, else you have backache, sick headache, dizzy spells: your stomach sours, tongue is coated, and when the weather is bad you have rheumatic twingers. Either consult a good, reliable physician at once or get from your pharmacist about four ounces of Jad Salts; take a tablespoonful In a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys may then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for years to help clean and stimulate sluggish kidneys, also to neutralize acids in the system, so they no longer irritate, thus often relievig bladder weakness. Jad Salts is inexpensive, cannot injure and makes a delightful, effervescent lithia-water drink. Drink lots of good water.—Advertisement.
