You are careful what choice of friends youog people of your household make. You do not open wide the door to those whose speech and behavior be-tray ill-breeding and lax moral*. Are you careful to shut it against books and periodicals tbat yresent vulgar and demoralizing pictures of lifeand yurpose? Perhaps yon ara amoung those who have found that The Youth’s Companion occupies the same place in the family reading, that the high-minded young man or woman holds amoung your associates. The Companion is good without being “goody-goody.” It is entertaining, it is its stories it depicts life truly, but it chooses those phases of life in which duty, honor and loyally are the-guiding motives.

Every Move in Daily Life Preceded by Pious Ejaculations Calculated to Offset Work of the Bad Jinn. Mohammedans believe implicitly in the participation of spirits (Jinn), both good and evil, in most of the concerns of daily human life, explaining that Jinn become visible or invisible at will, either by rapid extension or ratification, and consequent diminution of the particles of which they are composed, and that good Jinn are immediately recognized by their resplendent beauty, the bad ones being correspondingly hideous and shocking. Many cultivated Mohammedans even in this twentieth century, says the Queen, profess not only to have seen Jinn but also to have held converse with them, and to possess certain talismans by which the services of good Jinn may be secured as well as formulas by which bad ones can be put to confusion. Constant endeavors are made —except during the Feast of Ramadan, when all evil spirits are supposed to be kept in strict durance in the bowels of the earth—by daily sprinkling the floors of rooms, especially empty ones, with salt or iron filing, for which bad Jinn aife considered to have especial aversion, to insure their exclusion from the dwelling places of the “sons of the faithful.” The favorite abiding places of Jinn are supposed to be empty houses, cross-roads, baths, any uncovered jugs or basins or food receptacles and yawning mouths. So good Moslems not only lock their doors when obliged to leave their houses, but besprinkle and cover up in so far as they can every article of domestic use whose emptiness would tempt a roving evil spirit to enter into possession, besides making use of the special prayers ordered by the Koran to keep such visitants at bay. The words “I seek refuge with God from Satan the stoned,” or “In the name of God the compassionate the merciful,” are constantly upon the lips of Moslems, for without previous pious ejaculations of the kind to dissipate evil presences they dare not undertake even the most ordinary business of their day, neither enter nor leave a house, meet with or part from a friend, partake of a meal, commence or complete any commercial matter or journey, take a bath, nor even kill any animal for food, lest the bad Jinn take possession' as life ceases and work madness or destruction upon the sacrilegious mortal who presumed to eat or make other use of it. Probably for the same reason is the singing of a continuous antiphonal funeral chant kept up by relatives and watchers from the moment the breath leaves a human body till it is safely hidden away under the sod; usually as short a period as possible among Mohammedans, 24 hours or less being the customary interval between death and burial. Child Rescue Campaign. Mrs. Frederick Dent Grant and Mrs. Edith Rockefeller McCormick are among the leaders of the child rescue campaign which is now being carried on. The plan of this movement is to take children out of the institutions and find homes for them in private families. There is a choice of several ways of taking a child into one’s home. The child may be taken on a limited probation, after which it may be legally adopted, or it may be subject to only a limited adoption, which seems to mean giving it an education and a start in’business when it reaches maturity. At the present time it is reported that there is a greater demand for little girls among families wishing to adopt children than for boys. During the past summer several little girls were sent to England by a New York institution and were adopted by well-to-do English families. A Tragedy. * “I saw a struggling poet to-day.” “I object to the word ‘struggling;* why should a poet always be called ‘a struggling poet?”’ “Well, this one was a struggling poet.” “Because he did not look prosperous, I presume. It is a well-known fact that a genius is always careless about his dress.” “Nope; this one was struggling because he did not stand near enough to the door when he presented his poem, and the editor caught him.”— Houston Poet 2
