most. Wakeful children are almost

Their sleep should be as much dur

they should go to bed before sunset
TO have their sleep out. than TO lie
long after sunrise in the morning.

him such variety and amount Of
outdoor exercise as shall make him
glad when bedtime returns.

Our sons and daughters come out
too early. They somehow contrive
TO throw off all too soon, ami too

comprehend in their results and al
vantages whole decades.
Why cannot our youth see that it
is character, culture, habit and
principles that make the man OF
woman? 1t is not dress, nor gall
lantries, nor hlrtations, nor affected
airs, nor unsoiled hands, nor per

movement Is to teach them this les
