THOUGHTS
ON BOYS

HIS HEROES
(Copyright, by Joseph B. Bowles.)
He is a born hero worshiper. That
is one way he earns his passage from
; little to much. Nature starts him out
with a talent for admiring and imitate
ing. The rest of the story tells it
self. He grows like that which he
keeps his admiring gaze upon. The
first thing he admires is physical pow
er, for the first thing he needs is phys
, ical resources. The next thing is the
intellectual and the next the ethical
; and religious. There are those three
unmistakable stages, though he may
be partially in all three at once.
His principles are in the form of
persons; his rules are in hlB rulers. He
never cares for truth in the abstract;
only in the concrete. He has his he
roes from the time he starts till he i*
old enough to be one himself; and he
is capable of it, or he could not appre
ciate heroism in others. Discovering
and worshiping his heroes is one of the
most fascinating and wholesome thing*
he ever does: wholesome, if they ar«
of the right kind. He is furnishing
very interesting instruction to those
who have the oversight of his life.
His first, heroes are always men—
men of physical prowess—yet they
have an effect on him morally, and
every other way. They may be bad
for he seems almost as apt to find bed
heroes as good, unless he Is given
some assistance The place of hoinage
may be preempted by his worthy pa,
| or -in older brother, or a noble cousin
! or uncle. The one who holds that
i place has to do something and keep
busy at it all the time. He also finds
special fascination In the swaggering,
bullying fellow, whose 'alk is bestial
and boastful, like the city boy wno
was visiting his cousins in tne
country, and used to meet us
boys at the neighboring saw'mil]
and swagger and swear and SDit
tobacco juice right and left. How
we stoou around and worshiped him!
Some boys, at that stage, will envy
me for having a ride on the cars one
whole morning in the same coach with
John L. Sullivan, years ago; when he
was at the zenith of his carrer, and
perhaps they will wonder how I es
caped. Discreet politeness goes a
long way, In such times of peril. And
Capt. Bates, the biggest man of his
day—how can I ever forget the time,
when I, a small boy at the country
fair, paid my precious quarter to go
into his tent and gaze with wonder
*t him. Later I rode in the same
coach with him and his wife, who was
the biggest giantess on earth, but the
fascination of his bigness was largely
gone. The man who can deliver the
hottest ball or stay at the bottom of
the roughest “hog pile,” or ride the
trickiest mule in the circus is his
hero. One of the ecstatic moments of
my early life was one Sunday morning
down at old Bi’llittsburg church, as I
was standing with a bunch of boys
and men out under the trees waiting
for service to begin. I was only nine
years old. Tom Hogan and several
other young men came riding up. Tom
was on a gray horse. Just as that
gray horse got to the proper place he
began a series of demonstrations that
raised me to a delirium of delight He
reared up on his hind legs and started
to walk off like a man. Then he
descended, touched base, and repeated
the act. This he did again and again.
Tom acted as if he had been brought
up on that horse’s back; in fact, there
seemed a quiet understanding between
the two. When the horse at last de
cided to take up permanent residence
on the ground and consented to be
hitched to a tree, and the gallant rider
joined our group, I looked at him as
a prodigy and listened to him as to an
But he admires noble prowess am] 1
chivalrous knight errantry best of all, !
unless his taste is perverted. He j
conies to a time when he begins to
adore intellect, especially as it takes
the form of shrewdness and skill and
enables physical weakness to triumph
over brute force, as when brer babbit
outwits the larger and stronger ani
mals, and the meek looking stranger
suddenly overpowers the bully by his
superior intellect and art. It is some
little time before he can find a hero in
the pure intellectual worker, who pre
pares his precious manuscript on a
recondite subject, and when the dog
has torn it up and the maid has thrown
the scraps in the fire, merely says:
“Tut, tut,” in a falsetto voice! But
he likes the prowess of intelleet, par
ticularly when it discovers radium and
constructs steamships and writes \
great stories and governs people. But
there must be personality behind the
intellect.
It is always a fortunate thing for
him and for his pa if the lat'er ('an
satisfy his Ik r ideals of heroism if
he tan he mu:-t b°e n with himself be
fore the boy is born For the same
rear on, that pa must train hi? boy to
be a hero. A subtle process cf imita
tion is going on The boy walks like
ids hero, talks like him, wants to go
into the same business with him, is
growing liki him, for better or for
worse. Fortunate for all concerned it
his group of worthy heroes includes
his pa and an older brother, or boy
friend, and at least one ttnn, brave
man who knows that " ’tis only noble
to be goof* _. i

Free Remedy For
Weak Bowels
There are two forms of bodily
cleanliness, the external and the in
ternal. The one is for your pride in
yourself; the other for your life and
health. Both are important, but of
vastly more importance in the long
run is the internal cleanliness.
This is one point that all should watch
about their body—the cleanliness of the
bowels. Keep them clean and free from
obstructions. To do this you must have
one or two movements of the bowels
sach twenty-four hours. If your system
3oes not do this naturally. In the process
of eating and drinking, then you must
obtain aid of some kind. After finding
out that cathartics, salts and such things
relieve you for a day, but bind you up
worse than ever the next day. then try a
simpler and more natural remedy like
Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin. 1 '
For the skeptical the best way to be

Dr. Caldwell for a free sample bottlo.
