IT ISN'T ALL IN BRINGING UP.

It isn't all in 'a.bringing up,"
Let folks say what they will;
To silver scour pewter cup
1t will be pewter still.
Fen he of old, wise Solomon,
Who said, "Train mp child
If I mistake not had a son
Proved rattle-brained and wild.
A man of mark, who fain would pass
For lord of sea aud land,
May have the training of son,
Ard bring him up full grand;
Nav give him all tho wealth of lore,
Of college and of school,
Yet after all may make him more
Than just decent fool.
Another, raised by penury,
Upon his bitter bread,
Whose road to knowledge is like that
The good to heaven must tread
Hes got a spark of Natures light,
He'll fan it to flame,
Till, il its burning letters bright,
The world may read his name.
If it were all in "bringing up"
To counsel and restraint,
Some rascals had been honest men
I'd been myself saint.
Oh, it isn't all in bringing up"
Let folks say what they will,
Neglect may dim a silver cup
1t will be silver still.

BATHING IN SPRINGFIELD.-A cores
pondent informs US that there is consider
able feeling in Springfield over the fact
that three young ladies and two little
boys, attired in tathing dresses, were ct
tackled by a big len horse water wheel and
hose, which dcluged the bathing party
into a state of uncomfortable terror, and
the community in that place have divided
off on the subject of ladies bathing. The
parties bathing are said TO be respectable
and in good position in society. They
may have selected an unfortunate place to
battle, though we know nothing of this.
but the mere fact of bathing alone, ought
not to subject them to deluge from ten
horse water wheel. We live in an age Of
tremendous progress, and bathing by la
dies in bathing dresses is rapidly becoming
common affair throughout the country.
Doubtless some places may reasonably be
considered more appropriate for such pur-
poses than others, but if the objection is
merely TO bathing alone, ten horse water
wheels will have to yield TO the inevitable
law Of progress.
