' Children and Work No one nowadays believes in child labor that forces the boys to spend long hours behind the counter or in the shop. Happily for all of us, the day of the exploitation of the child is over, and salutary laws prevent its return. That children should learn to work or be provided with home service jobs is a proposition
fundamentally sound and wise. High school boys and girls, and those in the grades, too, who
have regular tasks to perform are infinitely bet
ter off than those who are idling away all of their
spare time.
Back of the work which a child performs in
its snare hours is a constructive principle. A
job which the child must perform regularly
teaches it to assume responsbility, which in turn
makes for the development of character.
Idleness in itself is not objectionable. All of
us, adults as well as children, need hours of rest
from the routine of our daily work. A limited
amount of idleness gives time for sound intro
spection, for planning, and for relaxation. The
menace of idleness lies in what we do in the spare
hours. If they do not tend to develop character,
they undermine our moral strength and habits.
And so wise parents provide their children
with tasks that must be performed punctually
and regularly. The assumption of the responsibility of executing these tasks develops manhood and womanhood. It adds to the understanding
of life in the minds of the youth and develops the ability of the boys and girls to do things. At first glance it seems strange that mr.ny persons whose success is phenomenal have at
tained to high stations and affluence without the advantages of an education and the other factors that are supposed to be helpful ; but the key to the mystery usually is the fact that they were forced to assume responsibility in early years, and by learning life's values early were able to reject the dross and hold the gold while some of their companions, who were reared in a more fortunate environment, were still in the swaddling clothes of their experiences with life and its lessons. Parents will be conferring distinct favors upon their" children by assigning household service jobs to thenTand holding them strictly accountable for their performance. The character
development will amply repay the child for the comparatively short time which it must devote to this work daily.

TODAY'S TALK By George Matthew Adams, Author of "You Can," "Take It," "Up" RUTH DRAPER ' I like to write about and praise people who now live, while yet tbey are pouring out benefits for the betterment of the world. I like people to know that I appreciate them and their art or work. Recently I went to hear Ruth Draper, whom I consider one of the greatest artists it has been my privilege to hear. They call her an Impersonator. But that Is not what she is at all. She is an Interpreter and even more than' that. , She i3 the granddaughter, I believe, of Charles A. Dana, the great founder of the New York Sun. And surely the genius of that wonderful understander of human character has descended to this woman, for she actually flows into and becomes one with the characters she depicts. She gives you a New England character in one of her sketches. You see the very porch where the farmer's wife sits. You seem to hear the creak of the old chair, the hens' cackle and the dog barking as the woman clatters on. Ruth Draper disappears and the characters, as they actually are, walk and talk before you. Real tears come and roll down your cheeks before you know it when she leads you into an old Western railway station to see them bring in the wounded from a wrecked train. And as you catch the humor and pathos of one character after another, you know that this artist has brought you a clearer understanding of human nature and of life that she has brought a lot of sweetness into your life that, had been all too dead before. Ruth Draper etches characters on the stage as Whistler did on copper. And with as infinite skill. And one of the first things you note about her is that she is so simple, so modest, so very honest. She has no tricks. Though it has been weeks since I heard this extraordinary artist, her characters are following me everywhere. They rise before me as I go to work, and often I find them coming into my room at night, after the lights are out, and into my library when the lights are on. You see, they were real and somehow I like real folks. I have heard no woman artist to compare with Ruth Draper since Bernhardt. And I am wondering whether the Divine Sarah, at Miss Draper's age, could have been so great.

Who's Who in the Day's News
After Dinner Stories Tell they the tale, as Mr. Cabell pays, of the late Gen. Horace Porter, what time he was manager of the Pullman company. One day he got a Iptter from an army officer who said that the Pullman car that had carried him from Jersey City to Long Branch had not been properly swept and dusted. General Porter waste-basketed the letter; also the second, the third and the, fourth. But the fifth was so violent that General Porter dictated the following: reply: Sir: We have run the train off the
. track, burned the cars, shot the con
ductor, hanged the porter and discontinued the line. Hoping that this will be satisfactory, I "remain, etc.
