Parents fe: me assure you that just SO

Tnen ahy not make It point to call
in occasionally and spend half day or
more with them and their teacher thus
mauifesting your desire for their al
vancement and at the same time increas-
inc the same within themselves. How
often do we see that where parents are
negligent respecting any duty the same
di. position will be manifested in their
children. But We think We hear some
say, we pay our tcacher to attend to
our children in the school room, and We
expect him to do SO without having US
10 run there, its as much as We can do
to attend to the work at home and let

nlan to be living in the enjoyment OF
good health, whilst same vital part is
beirg destroyed BY disease, as to expect
school to prosper as it should, whilst
one party falls short Of performing the
duties belonging thereto. As the sue
cess Of the engineer is dependent upon
the proper working Of all shafts, wheels,
etc, 50 does the proficiency Of scholars
depend upon the efforts Of al parties
concerned. Awake then parents to your

While, il both Of his pockets, he kas

There's Jackson and Allen, Stivers and

They are beardless in lore, hence no titles

And Doctors are plenty. Come list while

Arsenic and Calomel, and thousands Of

They'll cure all diseases with greatest

The Editor too, Of popular books
Cries out for your custom, how elated he
