arothers, Put Y9nF chiidren to Bed

Mothers, Put Your Children to Red
There may be some mothers who feel
it to be sell lf-denial to leave their parlors.
or fresides, or work, to put their little
children to bed. They think that
the nurse could do it just as we'll; that
1t is of no consequence;who hears the
children say their prayers. "a
Now, setting aside the pleasure of
opening the little bed and tuclSing the
darling up, there are really important
reasons why the mother should not
yield this privilege to any ohe., In the
the first place, tits the time of all times
when the child is inclined to show its
confidence and affection. All its little
secrets come out with moro truth and
less restraint; its nhugh ghtiness through
the dny can be reproved and talked over
with less excitement, and with the ten
derness and calmness necessary to
make permanent Impressions. s5
IF the little one has shown desire to
doiwell and be s6bed dlent, ,its effort and
success can be acknowledged and conn
mended in manner that need not rem
der it vain or self-satisfied.
We must make it a habit to talk to
our children, In order to get from them
an expression of their feelings. We
cannot understand the character of
these little ones committed to our care.
unless we do. And II we do not know
what they are, we shall not be able to
govern them wisely, or educate them as
their different natures demand. fttlg
Certainly 1t would be unwise to ex=
cite young children by too much con-
versation with them just before going
to bed. Every mother who carefully.
studies the tempernments of her chill
dren Will know how TO manage them in
this respect. ~ Tals tr'.S
But of all this mothers may be assur-
ed that the last words at night are of
great importance, even to the babies of
the flock; the very tones of the voice
they last listened 10 make an Impress
ion on their sensitive organization.
Mother, do not think the time and
strength wasted which you spend In re-
viewing the day with your little boy or
girl; do not neglect to teach It howito
pray, and'to pray for it in simple, ear
nest language which it can understand.
Soothe and quiet its little heart afterthe
!experience of the day, 1t has its dis
appointments and trials as well as its
play and. pleasures; 1t Is ready to throw
its arms around your neck, and take
Its good night kiss. liotlterS Magazine.
