minutes, quantity OF keIosipe was poured

Advice to the Girls.

We have charity for fast girls. We
have often found them generous and
warm hearted, aud are fully reay to be
lieve that their Disregard for couven
touales is often the boldness of innocence
For example, in some families the cham

ment that olteu does the yound girl great
injustice.
We have said that out Americans had
their faults The want of conventional
limits of propriety between the sexes is
one Of them. The young French girl is
kept secluded, and never suffered to see
gentleman unmatched. In America, from
early childhood, little girls aud boys grow
up together-and, on the whole, it is best
they should But, in order that this
liberty should produce good effects,
parents and guardians should necessarily
teach certain limits of propriety. There
are certain places, times and modes OF in
tercourse that are proper places, tunes
and modes. There are certain other
places, times ard modes that are i'm
proper, and it ought to be part of the
early training of every girl to teach her
this. Every approach on the part of IA
young girl to any personal familiarity
with a young man, such as she might
most innocently take with another girl,
exposes her to msconstruction which it
was the duty of her mother to prevent
by timely warming.
A favorite author has said that such
personal advances, on the part of women,
were "immoraities of manner" even
where the intention was innocent. So

Let mother tell you, girls, that
mothers, when they send their good into
the great world and its temptations, hope
much for them from the influence of good
women.
Did you ever think Of this when you
tell young men that you dote on smoking
when you urge wine upon them at parties ?
Some mother, some sister, may wish that
you would lead her son or brother to
uobler, purer conceptions of life. Ought
not some higher motive to govern your

fasten their admiration on yourself-to
