A romantic Missouri girl lately made an
attempt at suicide after discovering that
the persons VITO had brought her mp were
not her genuine parents.-i Exchange.
Under that careless paragraph lies sad
evil-a great wrong. II Is too often the
case that parents by adoption attempt to
conceal from the adopted child eli knowl-
edge Of that child's real parents, or-what
includes that attempt to conceal the fact
Of such adoption This, of course, is done
through mistaken kindness. 1t is supp
rosed the child will thereby have a deeper
sff,ction. Tor the adopted parents than IL
otherwise could; In other words, will love
the adopted parents just as deeply as II
would the real parents, whereas, did the
child know II was adopted It would not
have such Affection. And the consequence
Is, those artificial relations, as far rs adopt.
ed relations, as far adopted parents are
concerned, are a living lie. Every time
the parents call that child son or daughter
they utter falsshood, and they make the
child utter like falsebood every times it
Gays father or mother.
The child who has. never known a natural
parent will cling 10 tbe parent that has
adopted It with just as much devotion as 1t
could to real father or mother; thus that
living lie is useless. Besides there is the
daily constant fear aud anxiety Of adopted
parents lest the truth comes out after the
child 10 somewhat growu.-and the case Is
an uuexpectional one wherein, sooner or
later, 1t does not come out. And when 1t
does come out It produces such Q shock to
the child as to embitter ils lie time, aud,
doubtless, often weakens it's love towards
its PARENTAL benefactors.
The attempt to keep the secret Of the
birth and adoption is burden to the par-
snts, and when exposed 1t brings to ths
child desolatisn of heart that 1t never
would know had It been educated from
adoption in the knowledge Of the real facts
connected With Ito history.
