The sckoqJS will contirfue for

about three months yet qf "tho,
te'rln. No good excuse now for
not sending the children. School
. days don't last forever. .
Dt you want to. spoil, your
daughter? Then let her go to a
pa,rty Uiree nights ouof a week,
tell her she i&.pretty, teach her
to think of nothing but dressH
and society, let her lie abed
late of mornings, tell her that
boks and schools are of no ac
count, let her 'visit where . she
.will be flattered, and petted and
allowed to entertain the boys.
Let her read novels, and post
her so that she will be Jp-to-date.
Keep a servant to wash
the dishes and do all the "Work.
Let her go to church and Sunday
school just when she wishes.
See that, her Sunday , school
teacher allows her to talk about
'the new hats and' dresses as
mnp.li n sTno r1A.stfs in IIia r.ln,ss.
Advise with her pastor and see
that he does not say anything to
hurt the feelings of the young
people. Leave your pocket-book
where she can have free access
. to it'. . Let her live on cake andJ
. pie instead of beefsteak. Never
deny her anything she wants or
you nright spoil her sweet, dis
position. .
.-Now as to the boy: He'll take
care of himself. Turn him loose
on the streets, let him smoke and
swear, but be sure you go to
church twice a week and pray
for the boys. See that he has
goo'd-natured teachers who will
not punish him, for it might af
fect his will and make him an
effeminate man. If he don't like
bis teachers turn 'em off and get
Others. A teacher who , can't
make all the "children of the
community behave, and jnake
em learn, and at the same time
itiake 'em like him, hasn't any
right to exist any way. Your
boy fchould be taught that heaven
and earth" exist for him, and for
him alone.
1 "VTiiat does it cost to raise a
boy ?:' About $1,000 for the first
five years, about $700 for the
next five years, about $1,000 for,
the ihext five years, and s,o on.
What is he worth in the "mean
time? ' Whaf is he worth after
ward? Much- depends.. Too
often it is a minus quantity that
nfighthave several .goose eggs
before it. But one thing is cer-
tain, and tiiat is that education is
cheaper, find better than reformat

Of Concord have shown their
appreciation of our efforts. To
day has been" a great day on our
dry goo'ds side. So many custom
ers expressed themselves as
finding everything just as adver
tised and that's the kind of repu
tation we like to make. Many a
yard of silk, many yards of
ginghams, and P. .IL's changed
hands. There . was a great
scramble at the kid glove counter
and those who read advertise
ments got their choice of our
$1.25 and $1.00 kid gloves for
75c. That's the way we do busi
ness. It will pay yo to keep up
with an advertisement. '
