In the, going out of General Oorgas and
hi associates to reclaim Serbia from th
power of Infectious diseases w have th
chivalry of the middle ages come back to
us, only la finer
form. Even mora
than that, ft is like
th going out of the
English Wculcyan
missionaries to CTjt
hi 1835 to redeem
the inlands from the
power of Idolatrous
cannibalism, for It is
taking their lives In
their hands and con
secrating those lives
to' the service of hu
manity. It Is offering
to give life for the
sake of saving life;
and. as tho scripture
has it. "What can a
man do rr.pre than ;
lay down his llfo tor his friends?"
A terrible contract between the saving
work undertaken by these surgeons and ,
tho destroying work that has been In ;
progress In Serbia snd elsewhere since ;
last Aut'UHt! The very contrast between !
the two helps us better to appreciate the I
beauty of the one and the damnablonees J
of th other. It Is a white, spot on a
black ground, which makes the white to j
ioo:c whiter ana tne Diacg in iook orcr
Here la an opportunity for parents to
instruct their children on the difference
between the two kinds of heroism the
physical heroism that dares to be brave
la killing one's brother and the moral
and Christian heroism that dares to be
bravo In making one's brother alive.- One
is the heroism of a dog that Is not afraid
to go Into a dog fight, the other Is the
heroism of a man and a Christian, who
ia saved from cowardice by the fascina
tion of being, able to render beautiful
human service;
Whatever th exposures to which these
surgeons and physicians will be subject I
w have the feeling, und the justtnea
fooling, that most of them wilV be spared
to return to home and friends. There Is
an Interesting fact, or what is said to be
a fact, lying at the foundation of so
hopeful an expectation, which Is this,
that there Is something In the attitude of
mind with which a physician approaches
a dangerous or contagious dlseae that
tends to make him Immune, and to ex
empt him from susceptibility to the In
fluence of that disease. Is there In the
effort ha puts forth In his patients' be
half some energy that meets and resists
th energy of destruction emanating
from the patient? Perhaps that Is tho
secret of the idea so often expressed that
one ia in not danger so long aa on Is not
afraid.
It might be Illustrated,, by what we
know of. th Hudson river that the ait
neas of the sea la able to creep only a
little -way vp-stroant because met, re
alised and overcome by th current of
fresh water continually coming down
stream.' People of unsettled morals go
ing among debased tribes are likely to
become contaminated by th immorality
with which they come In contact That
is not the case though with missionaries
that go among them for the sak of re
generating them.
There is a fixed attitude 09 th mis
sionary' part and a regenerating force
emanating from htrn that meets and
stands real&tingly in the way of the
counter force Impinging upon him. It la
the phenomenon of the Hudson river
acted over in personal life. Over and
above, then, all the special preventives
that physicians know so well how to
uj when dealing with contagious dis
ease, wo may well beUov that there Is
in their favor a certain sanitary energy
working out from them resistingly. a
certain outflow of determined sanitary
purpose co-operating with other and su
perficial agencies which operates In an
exceptional way to render them Immune.

THIS WOMAN'S
SICKNESS
Quickly Yielded To Lydia E.
Pinkham' Vegetable
Compound.
Ther' o much tod m many to "mantion" tn "Watch Your
Step!" There.it the music fascinating, fetching sound tnd cling
ing In burr-fash Ion to your memory. There It Vernon1 CatUa (of
course!), with nit body like a long fox-grass blade in the wind. I
b'lieve he didn't do It but I most solemnly b'lieve that he could
quite Indifferently tie hit watery lege into a double-bow knot and
neve rtwitch a hair of his fallen bead. He wavers and weaves
and letma and whlpi and fllngt about and Just when you breathe
quite easy and are sure he is anchored and bolstered safe, he tags'
I can think of nothing he is like but the thadow of a reed In the
water when the water it wavering in the wind!
There Js Mrs. Vernon Castle slim and long with her cropped,
boyish head of bronzy-brown hair smoothed back from her round,
fine forehead her graceful feet her slimsey arms and hands her
graceful back which she holdt bent in an old-fashioned manner that
ia sedate and stately and oddly faery-like. Her clothes are built for
that odd. alender back. There its citron-yellow that twaya seduc
tively with Its barrel-like baby-blue banda of satin. 1 .There It tender
violet-gray, and this the dances in like a blowing wreath or toft
v
smoke. For it swirls and writhes and cruls and flies, about her in
ehangtng drifts of endless chiffon and under It Ir.er satin feet ad
vance and retreat like dim, gray mice. 8he is cbtj ,6iog and dainty
and no end clever with a delightful, tubtle look about ber of what
wellke to call "the gentlewoman." ,
Well .and then there't that girl that to me always marvel-girl
and I'd go "for to see her" many a long and foot-sore mile Elisa
beth Brlce! And the sings in her same sweet way with her tame
tweet eyet all ashlne like amber her tame sweet, big smile, calling
your heart right up to be melted In her same pretly, white dresses,'
with her tame little luring eyncopt.ted walk! ?. Ao-h-h; there't a girt
for you! A girl who glowa and radiates and sends out little golden
tart like a whirling flreworka. And with all the splendor of color
ing and manner the is Just a fragrant rose of a girl with a wholesome
smile that makea a fellow's heart rise right up and turn over.
There Is Charles King, sleek and well groomed and pleasant o
hear and look at. There Is Harry Kelly, who does a gem of a farm
er's "B-goth" tango. Intricate and difficult and tastes like an
encoreJ Hit make-up la fearful and wonderful a thing to dream
on. There Is he'e there, be is Frank Tlnney. ' And I was verv
happy and very comfortable to have him loaf in front of the foot
lights and confide In we people this side the half-moon all night long.
There've lots of things happened to him lately there .have! He has
a summer home in Free port he hat! Oh, he hat everything
"water in the cellar and everything!" And he'a been working for
aa automobile company "ask him the name of the automobile!",
Frank Tlnney is aa delectable and alve and beaming at ever he was.
He reminds me with his gentle voice end his smile of the phrase
In "Alice In Wonderland," "Beamish Boy.'.' Beamish Is the word for
him.
"Watch Your Step" is a colorful, clever, melodious dance-show
that never once trips up In beauty and fun and music, , , ,
It la a bright yellow casing that holds a brilliant cluster of rock

"Variety is the spire of life." How
ever often you have heard it, that is a
truth well worth pondering. "Variety is
the rpice of life. ' And It is a little talk
with parents who never realised the
philosophy of that simple statement, or
nave forogtten it.
M. B. writes me a sad little letter which
ought to preach a sermon of aa deep
meaning as any you hear from the pulpit
on a Sunday morning. Hha says:
"I am a hard working Slri 01 18 and
my parents do not allow ma to go out
even on a Sunday night. My brother is
going to many a girl of only IT shortly
and he isn't interfered with. I lay as
much for my board as he does and yet
he can come In and stay out as be
pleases. 1 worked herd overtime (or my
Castor outfit, but I wasn't Riven any
chance to go out and ear it. I am In a
factory all week and I would so like tf
have a little pleasure evenings. I'd be
willing to be home by 14 .o'clock. I am
thinking 1 shall have to leave home.
What shall I do?"
X. K. I. is in an equally difl'ieuit posi
tion. Khe writes me this letter:
"I am in and only in my Junior year
at high school. My parents wlll not let
me hae any ompany or go cut with
any boys. Now, I am In love with a
young buHlness man who wants me to
marry me. He meets me esxh day and
walks to our corner with me. I wouldn't
dare let him teke me heme, as father
says I must not have anything to do
with men until I finish school. 1 am very
unheppy, aa I do not want to elope and
fear that is the only way I can marry
th man 1 love. And I ran t do my work
at school for unhappineas, so goodness
knos when I would b sble to flnlvh
my hlKli sctiool rouroo."
It is juxt such laints as those of M
li. snd X. F. I., who drive their daugh-
iti liiio the gravest dangers if "iir mod
ern II it. Have they forgotten th das
when they were young and full of the
ley f living?
Neither school nor household tssks nor
work In a factory are sufficient to fill out
and round out a young life. A happy
and efficient nature must be developed
on every side. A girl needs play to com
plete ber work and work to complete her
play aa much ss the earth needs sun and
rain alike to make Its soil rich and fruit
ful instead of rock and barren.
As well try to make a pie without
sweetening, or to reap rich harvest with
out fertilizing the soil, or even to make
bread wtlhout leavening, or te hope to
train up a happy, useful nature without
the leaven and sweetening and fertiliser
of Joy.
When parents refuse a girl all thane
to enjoy life and to relax through Inno
cent amusement, they are taking a hor
rible chance at driving that girl to de
ceit and the seeking of sny amusement
that offers.
A ?lrls mother should he her friend
and a girl's father should be her ideal
of manhood and her natural protector.
But If they refuse her all sympathy and
understanding, if they forttct that she
needs variety in her life, they come to
stand to her as enemies.
When a girl Is innocent In her desire
for the natural pleasure of youthful
oomp.nlonihlp and the gayety, how can
she understand that one who lovea her
may deny her? Parents may be haunted
by the thoughts of tha dangers of mod
ern life: they may fear that their chil
dren will fall Into evil companionship on
the streets, but a wholesome nature is
withstand temptations that come from the
outstds. The temptations that most
gravely menace s young girl are the
cravings in her own nature that must be
snied because her parents, as she thinks,
cold bloodedly forbid her enjoying life.
Let youtli be served. Let a boy er a
girl go about with voung com anions and
make him or her feel that home Is a
splendid place to entertain friend". The
! put that boy or girl on honor to avoid
line ins of whom theie is any suspl Ion.
and to do nothing of which he or she
would be oshamel t tell tha loving par
ents at 'home, and the child haa a guar
dian angel In his own natural honor.
From "all work and no play makes
Jack a dull hoy" to "a little work, a
little play to kee;i us going and so, good
dsy," have all the philosophers and poets
have spoken a message that parents must
remember.
Htay In the shelter of your own home,
M. B., and try to persuade vour t.arents
that the innocent pleasures you crave arc
the due of your yontrr
Peg of yaur father to meet the man
you love, N. E. L., and in return offer
to try to finish your schooling with
credit to your family.
Put all yeu parents who deny your
children the Joy that li tin' Innocent
spice of life, be careful lest by forbid
ding them to seek the youthful amuse
ment that is their due you drive them to
a sad taste for hlRher sessonlm;.
