How naanj there are who would j

something to be miserable about,

The best way to keep the boys at
home is to make it an object for
them not to go but and seek amuse
ments, for these they will have.
Every farm home ought to be made
a very heaven on earth to its in
mates. Not alone the farm home
either, but all the houses in the land.
Learn each child's nature, and then
work some heme charm to keep
him in our circle.

niggardly in the expenditure of the
sweet charities oi life that we cannot
squander commendations on the
home tolks and strangers too, by all
means let the home folks cpme m
first for their share.

Parents oftentimes" wonder who
or what has ruined their boys.
They have been .in school every
day, but the teach'e'r either does not
teach them any lessons of morality
or else his teaching is a failure. The
truth is, the boys are on the street
from the time school closes until
late at night. ' The street corner is
the best place in the world for teach
ing vice, profligacy and crime, nearly
an tne oaa language ana laie, vici
ous habits ot bovs are taught on the
street at late hours of the night.
Teachers may be able to accomplish'
a little in counteracting these evil
inflaences, but much of thwir xlabor
is in vain until parents co-operate
with them in keeping their boys off
the street.

to the cunning man ' and 7, anxiously
begged to have another posessed of

the man. "there was nothing in the
bottle but brown sugar and water.
When you husband is in a passion,
hold your tongue, and my life on it,
he will not scold you in the future."
Be careful how you speak of a
woman's character. Think how
many years she has been in building
it, of, the toil and privation endured,
tf the wounds received, and let no
suspicion follow their actions. The
purity of woman is the salvation of
the race, the hope of future great
ness, the redemption of man. Wipe
out her purity and. man sinks be
neath the wave of dispair, with no
star to guide his life into a channe
of safety. Think then before you
speak, and lemember that the hog
can root up the fairest flowers that
ever grew, so the vilest man can
ruin the prettiest woman's character.

It is a proverbial saying among all
women that husbands have no
aaeqnaie iaea ox me wore wnicn a
housekeeper mast do. and conse
quently are careless of the extra
work they make for her. Would
this be so in the next generation 'if
every mother would begin with her
little boys and teach them to be or
derlywith all their belongings, and
to wait on themselves? Not only
this, but teach them to help mother
in every possible way; to keep the
wood' box filled with wood and the
water pail with water; to save
mother's tired feet by going up
stairs and down cellar for her? Let
him put up the clothes line, turn
the wringer and empty the tubs ? for
her on wash-day as ' soon as tie is
old enough. He ? will be proud
enough to think that he is growing
strong enough to do these things
better than mother. Be very sure
that you show, your appreciation of
every helpful act, and let him see
that you look to him for assistance.

MOTHER AS A TEACHEE.
The perception of beauty, dor
mant in the babe, is easily awakened
with the other growing faculties.
The kindergarden teacher's efforts
in this direction are constantly bear
iog fruit, but let a word be given to
mothers who have not had a kinder-
garden training.
Gather about your children a few
beautiful objects; talk ' about theirj
let the children come, as they will
unconsciously, under their influence;
let beautiful ideas and images grow
into their lives. Perhaps you have
a dainty,, head in marble; put it on a
low table to bet admjred, on the win
dow-seat to cast a shadow, in the
child's hand while he looks into the
beautifully modeled face, at the
smiling mouth, the wavy bair. -
Take time to read and reread a
gem of poetry, or to sing a sweet
song to your children. Above va
take time to study with your chil
dren the shading of the leaf, the
bird, the bee, the stone, Che pearls ot
dew on grass blade, the frost glitter,
the snow crystal; take time to watch
the trees in their grandeur, the
stretch of meadow, the sparkling
stream, the cloud mountains, the
sunset glory. Beauties will be re
vealed to you you dream ot of.
Even from our crowded x city
streets, to the eye that is opened and
the heart that is awakened, beauty
has not fled. The flickering light
w w
and shade weave themselves into ex
quisite patterns on our walls and
pavements, the trees throw their
long, dark shadows, the mists rise
soft and gray, the sun pours its flood
of golden light down the ' long dusty
streets; to the ear that is attuned,
harmony rises from the discord of
sounds. He loves beauty and is
looking for it will find it everywhere.
And the mother who keeps her en
thusiasm alive by working with -her
children, -developing 1 heir percep
tion of beauty and love forfthe beau
tiful works of nature and art, and
everencw for the beautiful truths di
vine, will give them a, blessed inher
itance which will lighten their bur
den as they grow beyondf her shelter
ing care, and brmgmore of cheerful
ness, and hopefulness, and youthful-
