Children must be taught what the ' parents wish them to know. Teach them truthful, gentle ways, and they will he true and gentle. If a boy hears bad language from his father, he will repeat it ju9t as certainly as he has a a tongue in his mouth ; and if a little girl hears her mother gossip, she will gossip the moment she meets a playmate. People who devour their food like cattle must not expect their chil- * dren to have nice table manners. Gen- J tlemen and good women are homemade. There is nothing on earth for which one ought to be more thankful ^ than for having been brought up in the atmosphere of a pure home. Such a home may be narrow and even hard ; it may be deficient in material com- ] forts. A man as sturdy as an oak once r said : "I was the son of poor parents, and from my youth up was inured to n self-denial and hardships ; but I do not remember ever to have heard a word from the lips of either my father or _ I *vit? Uah 4 V* * ntnn r?/\f nn if o LUJ uiubuci Lilac woo uut ao ID OIIUUIU be." Better such recollections than a | great inheritanc.?Mary Porter Lang- A ley. "Teach a boy arithmetic thoroughly and he is a made man." This is based upon the fact that in arithmetic is r taught method, accuracy, valuer pro portion, and relations?all of which [ are principal iugredients of a well c rounded man. t ? m m ^ ?
