There is an impertinence which Washing

not refer to the unseemly habit of asking a

colonel the number of his regiment or
the scene of his seryice-that sort of scene
has gone quite far enough.

Rules for the Government of Ch,iars.

RUIes for the Government of children.
First-Never give in to disobedience,
and never threaten what you are not pre-
pared to carry out. Second-Never lose
your temper. do not say never be an
cry. Anger is sometimes indispensable,
especially where there has been anything
mean, dishonest or cruel But anger is
very different from loss of temper Third
of all things never sneer at them, and
be careful even how you rally them.
Fourth-Do not try to work on their
feelings. Fifth--never show that you
doubt except you are able to convict To
doubt an honest child is to do all you
can to make liar of him; and to believe
liar, if he is not altogether shameless, is
to shame him. Slxth-Instill no relig-
ious doctrine apart from its duty. If it
have no duty as its necessary embodiment
the doctrine may we'll be regarded as
doubtful. Seventh-Do not be hard on
mere quarreling, which like storm
is often helpful IN clearing the moral at
mosphere. Stop it by judgment between
the parties. But be severe as to kind of
quarreling, and the temper shown in it,
Especially give no quarter to any Unfair
ness arising from greed or spite. Use
your strongest language with regard to
that.

Early Plants.

The best melons we saw last year were
growing in a poor mans garden hun
bred miles north of New York. The
seeds were started early in the spring In
squares of rich roadside sod, 4x4 inches
and two inches thick, inverted, place on a
tray near sunny window and on an out
side bench during warm days; watched
from time TO time, and finally set, 'sods
and ALL in the open ground when the
season was advanced beyond any proba-
bilty of chilly nights. Others planted
alongside of them, and earlier, directly
in the garden, hardly saw the light be-
fore they were devoured by the striped
pug-the sadest of the year. The same
plan is of course available for any vegeta-
Bile whose groth it is desirable to hasten.
For instance, a few tomato seeds may
thus be planted in sods or in small paper
boxes filled with fire rich soil, and pro
duce crop month earlier than usual.
The boxes, if of not too firm material,
may be transferred at the proper time to
the place prepared for them in the gar
den. without disturbing them, as the roots
will force themselves through the soften
ed paper; or the box may be carefully
scissored away so as not TO loosen the SOIL
from the roots, which is great point
gained in transplanting. If small pots
are available, these answer an excellent
purpose, and if the growing plant is re-
ported once or twice into larger pot, as
its groth demands more room, all the bet
ter. These hints are, of course, for those
who, for one reason or another, haven't
the advantage of q hot-b bed, that excellent
help in garden.-N. y. Tribune.

The Ars of prolonging life.

People generally desire long life and good
health. Sickness and premature death are
almost always due to violation of the laws
that govern our physical being, and of which
the masses are ignorant linen knew better
they would d0 better, but how can they avoid
an evil that they know not Of? While efforts
are being made through the public schools to
give each child so-called common English
education, yet the children are permitted to
grow up and enter upon the responsible du-
ties OF active life, profoundly Ignorant Of the
structure or their own bodies and the laws of
physical being upon which their health
and lives depend. They are sent to school,
crammed with arithmetic, grammar and
geography, by teachers who, IN many in
stances, have never studied physiology and
hygiene. They are taught tolocate the noun
tains and trace the rivers offoreign countries,
and are never taught to locate the vital organs
glands of their own bodies or trace the veins
arteries, and nerves, in their various ramifica-
tons They are instructed in the flow of tides
and the course of the ocean currents, and the
philosophy of winds and storms. but they
have no correct conception of the relative
effects upon their health of breathing pure or
impure air, nor has their attention ever been
called to The Importance of keeping their
bodies clean and healthy by regular bathing.
The criminality of such neglect in teaching
becomes apparent when we consider that the
masses ignorantlY violating the laws of health,
bring upon themselves sickness, suffering, and
death that might otherwise be avoided. Into
this condition of things we welcome into being
any work that is calcul9ted to impart to the
masses knowledge of the structurs of their
own bodies, the laws of health, and the import
ance of observing those laws. We find DIR.
Pierce's Common Sense Medical Adviser to be
just such work II is physiological and
pathological, and the major part OF 1t should
be converted into textbook for the use Of
common schools. Its careful study will en-
able the healthy to preserve their health, and
the sickly to regain health. Every parent
should read it, ana rs their children become
OF proper age instruct them in the all-import-
ant truths it contains. Where this is done,
much suffering and premature death would
be prevented, and many youth saved from
life of shame and RIGHTEOUSNESS. The book
