train Alt Ntr tt Jaration By EDWIN GINN Wel1 Known School Dook Publlihir E VERY one needs a vacation It is better for both employer and employe that at least two weeks every year should be free from all work and that such freedom should be given up to absolute rest and change of scene Undoubtedly it is true that a large per cent of the working people do not I derive the greatest benefit from the vacation period Many work harder physically and perhaps mentally at that lime than when engaged in the performance rf their regular duties Such use ofl vacation fails of course to accom ¬ I plish its purpose but when properly spent I believe the- I vacation period is as profitable as any portion of the year INot only do I believe in regular stated periods of rest but I also believe in a reduction in the hours of labor The plan which we have adopted of closing our establishment onehalf day each week is very satisfactory Of course whether nine hours labor is as prof table to t the employer as ten hours depends largely upon the individtrat The villigenerally but unless there is extra exertion and a determination to do on the part of the employe less work will be accomplished in the shortI cued day On general principles therefore no employer can afford to emII required to sooner manual labor Work of an exacting nature is much harder on one than that which calls for the exercise of little thought It is impossible to fix an exact limit upon the number of hours tnat one may safely work forI it is not the length of time a man works that tells upon him it is tire mental strain occasioned by responsibility risk and uncertainty that wears him out Too many take their cares home with them If people would only work a reasonable length of time each day and play the rest i of the time much more would be accomplished and the active life of the business man would be considerably lengthened The majority ol business men today feel that they must exert themselves to the utmost in order to accumulate a property that some day they will take time to enjoy It is only the few who ever reach that point who know when they have enough The most of them do not stop until failing health compels it and then all power of enjoyment is gone The best rule is to take time to enjoy each day as it passes I think we do need vacations more than our fathers did Com pcI tition with them was confined to their immediate vicinitya radius of from ten to twenty miles Men of today have the whole world to com ¬ pete with and the demands upon them are many times those made upon x our fathers Th1pn OStrla uulh- ttrrg tI By HON EDWIN WARFIELD Governor of Maryland < t lA Ifasked the age when girls should marry I should say 24 That was the age of Mrs Warfield when I mar ¬ ried I was 36 I said to my daughters that I should not give I my consent to marrying until they arrive at that ageI Marriage for the purpose of settling a daughter in life is as a rule a failure and an unhappy one No parent and especially no true and loving mother will wish to push her daughter into matrimony before she is fully matured and fitted for the grave responsibilities of married life Young girls just out of school are not equipped for the ordinary household duties of wives and for the cares and trials of motherhood i They should after leaving school spend some time with their parents giving their parents the pleasure of their companionship and learning something of the everyday work that will be theirs as wives I think that many lives are made failures by persons marrying before their characters have been formed Young people are impres ¬ sionable and romantic and if left to their own free will are apt to rush into matrimony without properly considering the grave responsibilities of married life Many cases have come under my observation where I youthful and hasty marriages have resulted in unhappiness discontent i and lives of drudgery The old saying Marry in haste and repent at leisure proves too often true Young women and men should remember that the romantic attach ¬ ments of youth generally are not lasting I would not wish to be regarded as laying down ironclad rules concerning the exact age when a should marry It might be at 22 24 25 or 26 yearsit all depends upon the physical and mental development of the girlI I At41rliti J1lat tlil1 By JAMES L WALSH Dlrector

physical and nerv ¬ ous exhaustion which was followed byI great weakness and depression The place fur Elijah was not at Jezrecl but j alone somewhere with God where ho could receive rplrltual and physical re ¬ r riving The place for the servant of God always after a service has been splendidly rendered Is apart from the busy throng and alone with Jesus Elii jabs first misstep was that run toI

I was talking not long since to Dr Walker and he nbso lutcly stated that alcohol Is never found In natural foods and very seldom In ¬ deed In prepared ones so long as those foods arc fresh and wholesome Mrs HDut that cant be so Why In making bread yeast is used and the only object in using It Is that gas may bo generated and It Is these bubbles of gas that make the bread rise Miss W There Is no doubt but that alcohol Is formed in tho dough for I know a little chemistry and the very fact that the gas Is produced shows that alcohol has been formed Miss PThat Is BO undoubtedly Dut have you not forgotten that the bread has to bo baked Tho fact that alcohol Is In the dough does not prove that It Is also In the bread Mrs 1II cant see that If It Is IB the ono surely It must be in the
