Though, as I have already said, ruls VI
laws are of no avail in the case Of a chiad
from 3 to 6 or years, yet it must be scq,
toned to certain fixed manner Of utta,ys
Above all, it must be accustomed alwsy d
take breath before beginning to sel
whereby it gains air, time and tranqult,
to speak. When person wishes 70 SPEAK ]
must first take breath. This the child uE
ally fails to do; it begins with half flsl
sometimes with nearly empty lungs tosr
press its thoughts, and hence, Of cours,
| forced after one or two words to take breaa
convulsively in order to continue to SPEAK
for instance: "If you 10 pant for air want /
go there, ETC." This injurious mannerolm RAP
ration is very prevalent among vivads

child requires to be treated with the create
attention, love and patience, and must not
left to itself in the development Of its speed
A very good means of training child
speak properly, as indeed to concentrate
wandering thoughts, is to tell it stories d
the mother relate little stories to the chi
using only easily understood words, sho
sentences, which can be comprehended byu
child, and let her, ere coming to the end
the tale, cause the child to repeat part aft
part slowly and distinctly, being careful
notice every mistake of the child In brsal
ing and speaking, as well as in the lAngaa
itself, and to correct every phonetic defect
pleasant and gentle manner, not allow
the slightest mistake to pass unnotlced
this manner, relating and being related

to utterly correctly certain words, sylaO
