t he children, it makes our heart
glad to see them enjoy Christ-

other dayrf when we too Jcfoiwd
for the coining of old Santa.
"Is Newspaper Man a Liar."
"It Newspaper Man a Li*i,''
asked the Osborne Farmer in a
headline and then goes on to ex-
plain; "If the avert.ge newspa-
per man is a liar, be generals-
lies to protect his community
If a boy goes out into the world
and gets it/to trtfuble, the home
paper says be was a good boy
until he went away and got into
bad company. If a town tight
wad who hugged his pennies to
his bosom iu life dies, the news
paper throws the mantle of char
ity over hiiri and says be hated
wastefulness, and that this hul t
for useless spending made him
over cart ful of his investments
and his charities. If the town
go?9ip dres, he carefully avoids
referring to her outstanding
weakness, and tells how she vis-
ited the sick aud afflicted, and
winds up by saying she was a
good neighbor. If the liotre
team goes away from home and
gets tho daylight whipped out i,i
them, the home town paper tells
the unsuspecting world that the
team was made up of second-
string players. The editor isn't
a liar from choice. Truth strug-
gies in his manly breast the same
as it does in that of the village
preacher, but the pride of his
community and the fear of the
irate subscriber make him a
trembling rabbit and he lies to
save the loeal pride of the town.
Still, its s great life, if you dou't
weaken.—Eff.

Extremes in Meeting
Out Punishmsnt.
The wirden of a peni enti iry
in one of the western states is
accused of permitting coi victs
to atUn 1 the Stale Fair, attired
in civiliiin clothes and to mingle
I'reeTy"with tCe~(]n7W;f 'Atno g
sotus of those iu eveuing clothed
found dancing With society wo-
man were life term murderers,
highway robbers and notorious
and stickup men.
From other states come re-'
ports of indeseribable csu Ities
to the inmates of prisons. 3ru
tal floggings, hanging by Ks
wrist with chains, soit>ry ci u-
liuemeuts in small, uuventilated
enclisures, chasing of prisoners'
to aud from work by guards ou
horseback are some of the melh
ods noticed.
The oue extreme is as much'
out of harmony with the true
purpose of punishment for crime
as the otter. MoUdliu senti-
mentality is assiokeuing as bru-
tality. Those women who show-
er r.nrrderers with flowers and
wlfiS them love notes are as niia-
guidad as the low brew convict
guard who has an idea that a
prisoner hns no rights that he
has to observe and that treat-
ment of a convict is subject to
his whim of the moment.
There is a happy medium le-
tween the two extremes. A pri
son should be neither a pleasure
p«lace nor a house of torture.
The law deprives men who com-
mit crimes, of th«*ir libeTty, but
their rights as human beings'
remain. Aud the modern con-
Caption of what the effect of pun-
ishment should bo in .that the
prisoner himself s~hou1d be im-
proved1. If he comes from pri-
son worse than When he entered
society baa not, gained by puti-'
ishing him. Tho seal need ia'
prisou management is just plain'
