MOTHER AT HOME.

DO not be continually finding fault
1t is at times necessary to censure and to
punish ; but very much may be done bv
encouraging children when they do well.
BE ever more careful to express your
appreciation of good conduct than Of bad
Nothing can discourage child more
than spirit of incessant fault finding on
the part of its parents and hardly any
thing can exert more injurious influ-
ence upon the disposition both of the
parent and the child. There are two
motives influencing human actions :;
hope and fear. But who would not
prefer to have her child influenced to
good conduct by the desire of pleasing
rather than by the fear of offending, Ii
mother never expresses her gratifica>
ton when her children do well, and is
always censuripg when she sees any
thing amiss, they are discouraged and
unhappy-they feel that there is no use
in trying to please. Their disposition
becomes hardened and soured by this
ceaseless fretting. At last, finding that
whether they do well or ILL., they are e.
qually found fault with, they relinquish
all efforts to please, and become needless
of reproaches.
But let a mother approve Of chid's
conduct whenever she can. Let her
show that his good behaviour makes her
sincerely happy. Let her reward him
for his efforts to please, by smiles and
affection. In this way she will cherish
in. her child's heart some of the nob!est
and most desirable feelings Of her nature.
She will cultivate in him an amiable
disposition and cheerful spirit. Your
child has been, during the day, very
pleasant and obedient. Just before puts
ting him asleep for the night. you take
his hand and say, "My son, you have
been good boy to-day. 1t makes me
very happy to see you so kind and ODE

are dutiful to their parents, and he pro-
misses to make them happy" This APP
probation from his mother is to him a
great reward. And when, with more
than ordinary affectionate tone, you say
