Disciplining Children.

Spare the rod and spoil the child. is
proverb often quoted, and undoubted-
ly it many times turns the scales in ia
vor of whipping" in the mind doubt
full if that is just the punishment need
ed. One may abstractly believe in cor
poral punishment, but when it is put in
practice, our having the real welfare of
child in view cannot be satisfied with
the result of such discipline. Do we
want child to obey because it must, or
through love and trustp A great step is
gained when child is assured that its
own good is always the object of our
discipline. Will child believe this
when blow is struck A blow is al
most always the result of impatience if
not anger. Jean Paul says parents
and teachers would more frequently
punish according to the line of exact
justice, if, after every fault in child.
they would only count four and twenty.
or their buttons, or their fingers" When
child is struck by n mate it strikes
back; it is at once angry. The child is
afraid to strike parent but the feeling
with which it could be done is aroused
and nothing but the superior strength
of the parent subdues the child, and be-
cause it gets no relief from striking back
the anger aroused is all the more dam
gerous; it reacts on the child and each
time it occurs gives another chance to
develop q set of feelings that had much
better not be aroused at all. Inharmo-
NOUS conditions between parent and
child will stunt the growth of q child's
nature, and there will come time in
the future when tho chasm between
parent and child will be too broad to
bridge over, all because of careless and
injudicious treatment, begun when the
child was nothing but bit of soft clay
and could have been so easily moulded
if we could only have looked ahead and
seen what was to be the consequence.
A young child is mass of possibilities.
Much depends upon the conditions of
development. There is n decided, latent
brutal force in every child, and it is to
this that we appeal when we resort to
corporal punishment The sense of
shame is dcadencd in n child that is
punished with q whip. and then he is
an easy prey to the vices that are around
him. Felix Adler goes so far as to say
in one of his recent sermons to parents,
that if whipping was forbidden by law,
there would be large decrease in our
criminal classes in the next generation.
1t is strange, but can be proved by SOL
diers, hunters, by incidents in the
French revolution, and by the treatment
of slaves, that wrathful cruelty can be
famed into pleasurable sensation. AS
it is an assured fact that this cruelty
exists in human nature. is it not posi-
tive wrong to do anything to develop
itp Is it not better to avoid all chance
of its being made prominent feature

Housekeeping.

Teething Babies.

Between the fifth and seventh months,
the two first lower teeth will make their
appearance simultaneously. Prior to
this. wash Baby's mouth out regularly
every day with cold water in which is
dissolved little powdered borax. The
latter is unnecessary unless there is
soreness of the mouth. When Baby be-
gins partaking of solid food, q small
toothbrush with very soft brstles should
be used. AS this is so rarely done, there
are many who will critcisc the sug-
gestion. AS a result of this practice he
or she will possess two rows of sound
white teeth, until the second ones make
their appearance. The longer the first
teeth are preserved the stronger and
better the second set will be. After
meals is the time to clean the teeth,
particularly after supper OF before 60
ing to bed. If they are to be cleaned
but once day, let it be before going to
bed.-JlrS. ElIts l.. Mamma, IN Good

Melons in Missouri.

Probably there is no place in the
United States to-day where better water.
melons are raised, or where they are
grown with less labor and expense, than
in certain counties of southeast Mis-
souri,. One of the stations from which
much of this fruit is shipped is Bertrand
which is on the Cairo branch. 1t is not
an uncommon sight to see as many Us
fifteen or eighteen cars on the siding
waiting to be filed with melons. The
country around Bertrand is rich sandy
bottom, and melons oftentimes grow to
half the size of men. All the farmers
of that locality raise more or less mel
ons, and all of them invariably do well
with the crop All the melons shipped
from that station 90 out in car-lots. A
car usually holds 1900 melons, and the
growers sell them to middlemen, or
dealers. ut from $50 to 1925 per car
load. The first fruit that is put in the
market sells Mt about 1925, or little
less than 10 cents each, while later in
the season it drops until sometimes they
even sell as low rs $40 per car, or 3
cents each. The freight on carload
of melons between Bertrand and st.
Louis is upward of $50, or in the neigh
borhood of 2 cents melon.
Dealers from all parts of the country
flock around the locality where melons
are sold at this season. Speculo Iors out
of a job try to make few dollars out
of the crop by buying up the fruit in
carload lots and selling it along the
road. From Bertrand the melon crop
is shipped by local freight. The specu-
lator, for instance, starts out of Bert
rand with two cars of melons en- route
70 st. Louis via Poplar Bluff. The train
stops at every station from five minutes
to half an hour to load and unload
freight. This is the melon mans OPP
portunlty. Dealers at all the small sta
tons understand the kink, and are at
the depots as the 'local" comes in.
Perhaps the melon-car is back quarter
of mile from the station. But they
rush back and are not long in finding
the man in charge If deal is made
at all it is made mighty quick. This is
about rs the conversation between buyer
and seller would read were it reported
verbatim:
"What you gotp"
peerless and mountain sweet"
"How muchp"
Sixteen an quarter"
"Good."
Second carload. Best-all ripe"
twenty-five of each. Quick-bell
ringing"
And out the watermelons fly. Per-
haps by the time the fifty melons are
all out the train has started, and within
five minutes from the time the train
pulled in fifty melons changed hands,
the cash is paid, and away the train
speeds, while the melons are picked up
and taken TO the stores where they are
retailed at from 20 to % cents each.
Many carloads that are shipped in this
wisc are dealt out along the line at
small stations to local dealers, the fruit
never reaching the city where destined.
