Heart to Heart Talks - By JAMES A. EDGERTON

AS IT WAS IN BABYLON. The ruins of dynasties past away In aloauent silence lie.

And the despot's fate is the same today That it was in the days gone by. Against all wrong and injustice done A rigid account Is set, . For the God who reigned over Babylon Is the Ood who Is reigning yet. We think- of divorce as a modern thing, a development of the past fifty years. Yet it has been recently discovered that during the reign of Hammu-rabi, king of Babylon, about 2230 B. C, divorce was almost as common as with us. Babylon was a great and beautiful city, perhaps th greatest and most charming of which those faroff times could boast. It contained culture and learning, wealth and art, material prosperity, wide dominion. Its women were beautiful, yet their virtue became a byword. And Babylon fell. Today only a heap of ruins in the desert marks its site. Its name has become a term of reproach to all nations. Much of our Christian Bible is given up to denouncing it. .The fall of its womanhood Is the chief charge against It We must go back 4,000 years to this Babylon to find a parallel for the divorce evil of our day. Even Rome was not so bad, although Home also was lax, and Rome also fell. These are the facts, pointing like warning fingers out of the ages. Their moral Is so obvious that it need not be pointed out. Xf9 may all have our opinions about Hvorce and kindred things, but even the babel of opinion grows silent before these awful witnesses from the past. We cannot argue with these gaunt, accusing fingers. Over and over again we have heard the truth that the temple of civilization Is reared upon the cornerstone of the home. Babylon's conerstone crumbled. Her house fell, and great was the fall of It The noise thereof still echoes along h ages.

The other day It was found that

three-fourths of the homes of Boston's aristocratic Back Bay section are childless. No; I am not saying that we are go

ing, the way Babylon went nothing of

the kind. But-

The law of cause and effect has not

teen repealed. Facts are facta, and righteousness Is righteousness. Likewise The God who reigned over Babylon Is tha God who is reigning yet.

Fountains for Dogs.

WIDELY USED.

Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is one

Cf the most widely used medicines in the market. It is as popular in Canada, Australia and South Africa as it

Is at home. This is because it "makes good." You can always depend upon it when you have a cough or cold. For

DETECTIVE'S REPORT

Is Made on Girl's Disappear

ance.

Last summer a public-spirited Richmond woman established a splendid institution in this city. It was a water fountain for dogs, located at the library building:, and it was a most important step in checking epidemics of rabies among Richmond's canine population. In every section of the city there should be several dog fountains and if the city cannot afford to establish them, the various civic and social organizations would confer a real public benefit if they would take the matter in hand. One of the principal causes of rabies is lack of water for dogs. Give them plenty of water, especially during the summer months, and the cry of "mad dog" will scarcely ever be heard. One hot August day last summer a collie which had followed a farmer's wagon into the city searched desperately about the streets for water until he finally noticed the high horse trough at Ninth and Main streets. With a bark of delight the big fellow leaped and alighted with a splash into the trough, where he drank for nearly three minutes. His intelligence saved him from the fate of becoming a target for a "gun squad."

Another Solomon Found. Representative Connolly of Iowa should be offered a post in the diplomatic service of the United States. He has met the patronage evil face to face without making an enemy, in at least one instance, and, it must be admitted, that is a feat only a man with well developed diplomatic instincts can get away with.

In a little town in his district there were three applicants for the postmastership. The first one wanted the job because he had

a vacant store room he desired to make use of. The second man wanted the job because he had a daughter he wanted to name as his clerk, and the third applicant had nothing but his ambition. All

the candidates had considerable political influence. Connolly pondered deeply, then he reached the decision to appoint the storeless fcnd daughterless candidate, provided he rented the store of the first man and employed the daughter of the second man as his clerk. Representative Gray should abandon his method of having post office applicants sign agreements to still love him even though they failed to get jobs, and take a few lessons from the Iowa Solomon.

THE PRICE WE PAY

I

It was George Eliot who once wrote

to a friend

"That I was not good to you is my

own disagreeable affair; the bitter

taste of that fact is mine, not yours." She had been very querulous and unfair in her treatment of a woman whose loyalty and love meant much to her, and when she reached the point of counting the cost, she knew that however her friend might have chafed and protested, it was she and she alone that paid the bitter price.

Why Accidents Occur.

It is unnecessary for the Palladium to make any comment on

the following editorial appearing in the Newcastle, Ind., Times :

Reading of an adjustment of wages of street car men at Richmond, it is

no wonder that accidents occur. The men have had an increase in wages and here is what they get under the new scale: For the first year they will get 18 cents per hour or $1.81 for a 9 hour day. This would be $10.86 for a week of six days or $12.67 for seven days. The second year the men will receive 19 cents per hour; 20 cents the third year; 21 cents the fourth year; 22 cents on and after the fifth year.

Five years of faithful service for the street car company will give the

employe the magnificent sum of $14.00 per week to support himself and family. No hope of increase after that time, for he has reached the summit of the wage scale. If this is a sample of wages paid by street car and interurban companies then it is no wonder that we have accidents. What class of men can a big and rich corporation expect to get when its only promise is a wage of $14.00 per week after five years of faithful and continuous service? These men must necessarily live in the cities where living is high, so that a mere

existence is the best the employes can hope for. It is a safe guess that the employes of newspapers in every city that has street cars get much higher wages, although newspapers are not rich corporations but quite the reverse.

No better argument is offered for the public control, if not ownership of

street car systems, than the niggardly wages' paid at Richmond.

NEWCASTLE, Ind.. May 22. De

tective Webster of Indianapolis, made

a partial report to Mayor Barnard yesterday relative to what he had learned In connection with the disappearance of Catherin Winters. The report has not been made public, as yet, though it is understood that relatives are implicated. Ivan Whisler, brother-in-law of Dr. W- A. Winters, has not been heard from and it Is expected that he knows more of the disappearance of the child than any one else. He and Dr. Winters were not on speaking terms, it is laid. The authorities believe they know the responsible parties though they have not been able to locate them.

When she wrote the significant little confession, doubtless it never occurred to her that many years afterward it would stand out to stranger-

readers as an .eloquent warning to keep out of debt, the kind of debt unthinkingly piled up, friend to friend, and acquaintance to acquaintance. And, to us, the confession would have no significance at all if we did not know perfectly well that sooner or later these debts must be paid, and that for every ugly offense there is a correspondingly ugly price, unwittingly exacted, and sometimes unwittingly paid.

in ways that are quite unknown to the culprit. . And fortunate the folk who learn, as George Eliot did. that Impatience and sharpness react and that the real bitterness comes back heme, where it belongs.

One of the life-lessons we are pretty slow In learning is the fact that when we are "not good" to the folk we meet as we go along, there is a price to be paid in the end. For the fancied benefits derived are certain to dwindle as time slips by, and then the penalty is our own "disagreeable affair;" the bitter taste is ours, not theirs. Sometimes, in child-like ignorance, we fondly persuade ourselves that

there is no penalty and we are not

even conscious of a bitter taste but

there are the folk who are measuring us up and persistently collecting the toll. For they collect, whether we like it and whether we know it or not. We may say a disagreeable thing and feel a bit bitter because we have unloaded our mind, and it may hurt the hapless person who chanced to be the target, but as the hours pass, we know right well that we paid for the costly privilege and that we hurt ourselves, most of all. Of course, if we are incurabty childish, we may not know It but there is someone else who sees and knows the sorry truth. And that is where the price comes In. For there never yet was a bit of meanness, a bit of dishonor in the world, that did not come back to the actor. Yes, it is quite true that the actor may go along with head well up in the air and may never dream that he pays, but that does not alter the fact. For a man or a woman may accumulate a whole load of discreditable debts, and pay bitter price, and all the while may remain smilingly unconscious of debt or of the price inevitably paid.

Awhile ago a woman felt a bit disturbed by some graceless remarks that were made to her, remarks unfair, unjust and very untrue. And she was disposed to retort in kind, but, all of a sudden the thought came home but who would pay for the retort? And, happily, for her, she heeded the warning, for time has proven her right. It has proven, too, that the author of those graceless remarks has paid his price but she very much doubts if he knows it. For the penalties for these little slips often come

And there is another side Those who feel aggrieved and ofttimes hurt at slights, indignities and

acts of injustice, if they were as wise and as philosophical as they ought to be, would know that, after all. "the bitter taste" was not for them to carry around; and that in time the "disagreeable affair" would shift where it belonged. For, though they are mightily hurt by the -mean little dabs and thrusts

that mean folk give, the burden of bitterness at last rests where it

should. One may be keenly hurt by a gossiping tongue but who does not despise and distrust the gossiper? And If that is not a pretty dear price, pray tell us, what is It!

And when we feel minded to do a dishonorable thing, something that will mar the very name of "friend," it is well to bear in mind that little warning written so many years ago, a warning that was not meant to be a warning at all "That I was not good to you is my

own disagreeable affair; the bitter

taste of that fact is mine, not yours." FRANCESCA.

Beware of Ointments for Catarrh That Contain Mercury as mercury will surely destroy the sense of smell and completely derange the whole system when entering It through the mucous surfaces. Such articles should never be used except on prescriptions from reputable physicians, as the damage they will do is ten fold to the good you can possibly derive from them. Hall's Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo. O., contains no mercury, and is taken internally, acting directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system. In buying Hall's Catarrh Cure be sure you get the genuine. It is taken internally and made in Toledo, Ohio, by F. J. Cheney & Co. Testimonials free. Sold by Druggists Price 75c per bottle.
