GIVE Your CHILD A LOCAL PAPER.

GIVE Your CHILD LOCAL PAPER. =
A child beginning to read becomes de-
lighted with newspaper, because he
reads the names of persons and things
which are very familiar, and will make
progress accordingly. A newspaper in
one year is worth a quarters schooling
to child, and every father must con-
slider that substantial information is
connected with advancement. The
mother of family, being one of the
heads, and having more immediate
charge of children, should herself be
instructed. A mind occupied, becomes
fortified against the ills of life, and is
braced against an emergency. Chill
dren, amused by reading or study, are
Of course more considerate and more
easily governed. How many parents
who have not spent twenty dollars for
books for their families would have
given hundreds to reclaim son or
daughter who had ignorantly or thought
lessly fallen into temtation

was adopted BY tho firm in May, 1868, but without
The knowledge Of the workmen. The plan embraced
the deduction of eight per cent as interest on the
