LET THE CHILDREN SLEEP-We earnestly
advise all who think great deal, or who have
to work hard, to take all the sleep they can get
without medical means.
We caution parents, particularly not to allow
their children to be walked up of mornings-let
nature wake them up, she will not do it prema-
turely; but have a care that they go to bed at
an early hour; let it be early, until it be found
that they wake up themselves in full time to
dress for break fast.
Being walked up early, and allowed to engage
in difficult or any studies late and just before
retiring, has given many promising and beau
tiful child the brain fever, or determined ordin-
ary ailments to the production of the water on
the brain.
Let parents make every possible effort to have
their children 60 to sleep in a pleasant humor.
Never scold or give lectures or any way wound
child's feelings as it goes to bed. Let all
Danish business and every worldly care at bed
time, and let sleep come to mind at peace with
God and all the world.
