Parental Government,

Scene in a Hbrary-gentleman busy
Writing-Child enters.
" Father, give me penny"
Haven't got any; don't bother me"
"But, father, I want it; something
particular"
I tell you I haven't one about me-"
"I must have one; you promised ne
one"
did no such thing; won't give you
any more pennies; you spend too many.
It's all wrong-I won't give it to you, so
60 away"
Child begins to whfmper. "I think
you might give ne just one; it's really
mean"
"No, go away; Iwon't do IT, SO there's
an end of it."
Child cries, leases, coaXes-fathar gets
out Of patience, puts his hand in his
pocket, takes out penny and throws it
to the child. "There, take it, and don't
come back again to-day
Child smiles, looks shy, goes out con-
uueror, determined to renew the struggle
in the afternoon with the certainty Of a
like result
Scene in the street-two boys playing.
Mother opens the door, calls to one Of
them, her own son: " Joe, come into the
house instantly"
Joe pays no attention.
Joe, do you hear me? If you don't
come, I'll give you a good whipping"
Joe smiles, and continues his play;
his companion is alarmed for him, and
advises him to obey. You'll catch it
if you don't 60, Joe"
90 no, I won't; she always says 80,
/ but never does. j amt afraid"
Mother goes back into the house, Vsry
much put out, and thinking herself a
martyr to bad children.
That's the way, parents; show your
/ children by your example that you are
I weak, undecided and untTuthful, and
they learn aptly enough to despise your
authority, and to regard your word -
nothing.
