Ohio, w. B. Allison, in Iowa. General Haw-

Of denying any of the reasonable advantages
of this position to General Harrison. He will
have "a united and earnest delegation in Chi
cago.' but if he should not prove to be the

WHAT General Harrison's
strength

WHAT General Harrison's strength
outside the State is, and is likely to be with
earnest and harmonious support from his own
State, is sufficiently indicated by what we
have published within the past few DAYS. In
every part of the country--East, West, North
and South, General Harrison is known, and
the possibility of his presidential candidacy
received with favorable consideration. With
Indiana solid and earnest for him, as Maine
was for Blaine, Illinois was for Logan, Ohio
is for Sherman, and other States have been
and may be for the man of their choice, no
one is more likely to become the favorite of
the party in the whole country than General
Harrison.

We are creatures Of imitation. Example
counts for more than precept. The parent
knows the law, and the child knows it too.
When the parent keeps it, then the children
will keep it also. 1t does little good for
child to learn at school that the food should
be properly masticated, when three times
every day at home he sees a hungry group
crowd about the table like pigs around
trough, and bolt their food as nearly whole
as it can be made to go down. The child
whose mother gives it a bite of something to
eat every time it cries for it, will not be in
condition to profit from an understanding Of
the law that food should not be taken be-
tween meals, until it is too late for the knowl-
edge to be of much service.
The law of pure air and proper ventilation
may be taught never SO plainly in the text

sit and to sleep IN a close, unventilated room,

shun fresh air as he would a plague, the
knowledge will be of little avail While his

The child who has learned the laws of health
from his father and mother, by seeing them
