People who complain of a growing disrespect for the courts might learn why the courts are not respected as of yore by keeping In touch with court decisions. In a Hartford (Conn.) court two sentences were imposed on the same day. and they deserve attention. An ex-judge, who embezzled trust funds to the amount of |5,572 was sentenced to one year in JalL A man who had stolen a horse was sentenced to two years,and ' six months in the state prison. This ! sort of things is so common that there ; Is small wonder why men are not as re- j spectful as they were towards the courts ;

There la a growing tendency manl fasted in various ways to regard work aa merely a means of reaching a state of idleness. The prevailing mental attitude, very truly declares the Cincinnati Enquirer, seems to be that the only standard of success is riches, and that the only way to attain happiness Is with the least possible exertion U> become a man of leisure, and to be able to dawdle through life with nothing to do. it requires but little examination of the real basis of happiness, or knowledge of human nature and the conditions under which wa are placed where we are, to show the falseness of this position. Man Is constituted an active being, seeking expression of hia character and tastes, and. if he would continue to exist and to progress, must labor. Hia highest dignity lies in honest, faithful labor, and through it alone can he find scope for the exercise of hia beat (acuities)or for the adequate expression of his in divlduallty. When we linger in admiration before a great work of art It la not so much foe what is represented as because we recognize that the artls; has put into it sotpething of himself, show lug us how some one who sees better than we has looked at aometh.'ng, ana the loving, careful, painstaking toll he has bestowed In representing it. Nowhere does character come out more unmistakably than In the daily task. H matter* not how trlvtal It may seem.and from no other source does there come to genuine satisfaction as from the conadousness of work well and thoroughly done. It matters not whether it is the painting of a picture, the preparation of a law case, the keeping of a set of booka the making of * pair of shoes or the cooking of a dinner. Whoever does It in the beat way, with love for his work and honest devotion to it, will get the best results and find his reward in 1L

Not a hand 1s raised to stay these outrages on society and direct attack! upon the aacredni of wedlock. At this moment, when the tnm marriage calls for the spirit solemnity, humility cad -high reao the ceremony is turned into a farce, and the merrymaking is Indicate! of the llgbtuea* with which marriage obligations are regarded. The matrimonial alliance which is tp be Indissoluble will have the elements of peace and sacredneas at its inception, and the rude Intrusion of ill-timed merriment should be frowned upon and prevented, ns we would stamp out any outrage against public decency and goad order. 69 CENTS mam i wo rat HE 111!
