CHILDRNE'S STORIES.

JUST as child's health is undermined
by too much medicine and by continual
doctoring so the minds of children some
times suffer from too careful nurture. Body
and mind both require some freedom for
independent self-deveopment, and forcing
processes seldom conduce to their vigor,
The kindergarten method of modern
times, though they are no doabt bene-
fetal as general thing, probably have the
occasional effect of thwarting the
designs of nature. Miss Harring-
tons views about story telling,
however, are open to few objections,
She insists on the importance of the lost
art of storytelling as an essential factor in
= child's education, and endeavors to in
struct the mothers in the mysteries of that
art. A genuine story-teller is born, not
made, and like. natural poetic genius the
spontaneity of storytelling decays with
the growth of civilization. There will
never be any stories like those which the
limple old village crone mumbles to the
circle of wide-eyed children pressing
about her; legendary tales in which the
destinations of true and false have no
meaning; echoes of the golden age
which always lies just a little back of the
present, when princes and elfn queens
we're tenants of the greenwood, and life
was but as the burden of summer song
A victim of modern education may learn
to tell story well, but never with the
genuine flavor of simple credulity.
The doom which falls upon adult man
hood, of following after the truth is not
one which needs to invade the life of
stories to a child to guard against be-
heving them. Some parents tell the
stories of Santa Claus and then beWilder
the little ones by assuring them that
what they have heard is not true. If
the children insist on inquiring whethIe
il is true or not, they need not be decelv-
ed; but children who have grown up nat
uraly will seldom be troubled by such
questionings. The story itself is the end
to them, and no wearisome inquiries about
the credibility of what is beautiful ought
to haunt their minds until they reach
years of grayer responsibility. mother
in telling a story, says Miss Harrison,
shor d not insist too much upon the moral.
Ii may I've questioned whether the story
ought to have moral. The idea that a
ehiId's conscience must be diggeo about
ard watered from infancy up is apt to
defeat itself Let the mind and soul b
nourished by what is beautiful ard noble,
and the conscience of any child OF virtuouss
parents ought to take care of itself during
the years of early childhood.

CATARRH.
Not Local, But Constitutional.

DR.. bio Lewis, the eminent Boston ply
stefan in recent magazine article says
"A radical error underlies nearly all medi-
cal treatment of catarrh. 1t is not
a disease of the mans nose; it is a disease
of the man, showing itself in the nose-a
local exhibition of constitutional
trouble" Therefore, he argues, the use
of snuff and other local applications is
wrong and while they seem to give tenn
porary relief, they really do more harm
than good. Other leading authori-
ties agree with DR.. Lewis. Hence. the
only proper method of cure for catarrh is
by taking constitutional remedy like
Hood SarsapariIa, which reaching every
part of the body through the blood, does
eliminate all impurities aud makes the
whole man healthier 1t removes the
cause of the trouble and restores the dis
sed meWb me to proper condition. That
this is tht PRACTICAL result is proven by
