Mind what you Say before Children.

IL Is always well to avoid saying any
thing that is improper, but is respectfully !,
before children; and here parents, as well
as others, are often in fault. Children bay,
IS many ears as grown persons, and ihey
are generally more attentive to what /,
said before them. What they hear the,
are very apt to repeat and as they have nc
discretion and not sufficient knowledge ol
the world to disguise any thing, it is gene
rally found that children and fools speak
the truth" See that bsy's eyes glisten
while ysu are speaking Of 4 neighbor in
language that you wenld not have repeated
tie does rot fully understand what ysu
mean. buthe will remember every word ;
and it will be strange if he does not cause
ysu to blush by the repetition.
A gentleman vhe was in the habit of
calling at a neighbor's house. and the lady
had always expressed to him much plea
sure in seeing him. One dsy, Just after
she had remarked to him her happiness
from his visit. the little boy entered the
room. The gentleman took hum on his
knee and asked:
" Are you nat glad to see me, George o.
"No, sir, replied the boy.
Why not. my little mani" he centin.

because neither don't want you to
come" said George.
Here the mother looked daggers at her
little son, and became crimson. But he
saw nothing.
Indeed! how do you know that.
Georgef"
/" Because she said yesterday sha. she
wished that old bore would not call again"
The gentleman's hat was soon in requi-
sition, and he left with the impression,
" Great 10 the truth il will prevail"
A boy once asked his father who Il was
lived next door to him. and when he heard
the name. inquired If he was not 4 fool.
No. my little friend, he is not a fool,
but a very sensible man. But why did
you ask the question:"
" Because" replied the boy, " tnother
said the other day that you were next door
to fosl--ahd wanted to know who lived
next door 10 you."
Mother sent me-" said little girl TO
neighbof. " TO come aud ask you to take
lea with her this evening""
did she say at what time. nv deari"
No, ma'am she only said she would

Mr.. Lambert, The minister in question,

This was not owing to any want Of 10.
