what shall we do with Boys9

What shall parents do who live il
towns and cities? What shall profes
sional men do, whose children cannot
participate in their parents work?
Instead of keeping them anxiously in
doors, thrust them out as much as possi
BILE. Do not let watching become
spying. Let children have sports and
companions, and unmatched liberty. Put
them upon their honor. Boys viii early
respond to this. Do not make too much
of their mistakes and faults. How can
one be child and not be full of faults
Explain their mistakes gently. Be pa
tientl Wait for theml Children must
have time to grow-somebody had to
wait for you. Never let fear make a
gulf between the child and you Within
due bounds, liberty is the best thing for
a child, as it is for man. 1t will lead
to irregularities, but out of these will
come experience, and gradually self-con-
troll. The object of all family govern
ment is to teach children 10 get along
without being governed. They must be
trqsted; even if they abuse it, they must
be trusted. Keep them busy with pleas
ant work if possible, Awaken in them
curiosity about the things which lie
around them A very little instruction
will make children curious Of plants,
minerals, natural history, Of literary
curiosities, autographs, postage stamps,
collections and thousand things which
will inspire pleasure in their reason
srsther than in their appetites.
Never scold children, but soberly and
quietly reproves Do not employ shame,
except in extreme cases, The suffering
is acgte, and it hurts self-respect in
child to geproye IL before the family. To
ridicule it, to tread down rs issliggs
ruthlessly, is to wake in its bosom aaiig-
nant feelings. A child is defanseless
he is not allowed to argue. He is often
tried, condemned and executed in a
second. He finds himself of little use
He is put at thipgs be doR't care for,
and withheld from things he does like;
he is made the convenience of growR-up
people, is hardly supposed to have any
rights, except in o corner, as II were; is
sent hither and thitheF, made to get up
or sit down for eyerybody's convenience
but his own, is snubbed and eatechised
until he learns to dodge government and
elude authority, and then be whipped
for being such lying whelp that no
one can believe you.
Well, WE'LL girls may have the hardest
time Of j. i4 efter life, but for the first
fifteen years the boys sEe the sufferers.

PERPLExED.- 1t should not be ex-
pected that immigrants know much
about the manners and customs of the
Bluff A few days ago five newly arrived
Swedes stopped at boarding house in
the Waldran Block. After engs aging
rooms they we're directed by the land
lady to make their way up to No. 20,
Instead Of understanding this as the
number Of room, they understood it as
the number Of a house, and accordingly
marched in body to No. 20 Linden
street, which fortunately happened to be
a boarding house also. Here they drop
ped their baggage, and said they had
come to occupy their room. The land
lady of this establishment was somewhat
astonished at their demand, but finally
had them conveyed to their resting
place. Great. however, was her aston
ishment when the five Swedes in the
morning walked over to the Waldran
Block and took breakfast and great
also was the surprise of the Waldran
Block lady when in the evening the FIVE
walked back to the Linden street house
to sleep. One landlady asked her board
ers why they quit her establishment at
night, and the other landlady asked her
dodgers why they quit her place in the
daytime These questions so perplexed
the Swedes that they quit town, leaving
their trunks at No. 20 Linden street and
their board bills unpaid at the Waldran
Block. 1t takes a landlady like Mrs
Bouncer, who managed the bed for Box
and Cox, to manage immigrants.

WATERwoRKs.-About fifteen years ago
the question of waterworks was started
in the City Council, but up to this time,
with water in front of us, water to the
north of us and water to the south of us,
we have no waterworks. We are old
fogyish, and love wooden tanks and one
horse carts. Perhaps some of our stand
still folks would go crazy if they saw a
hydrant. Very likely they prefer public
cisterns, although sometimes, when fire
occurs, cisterns fail to supply 6re-enginos
with sufficient water, and consequently
more houses than oughtto be are burned.
Somebody tells US We will soon have
waterworks; but how many years does
the word soon mean in Memphis2
