To MAKE CHILDREN LOWRY.

There is Just one way, and that is to
surround them by day and night with an
atmosphere of love. Restraint and re-
proof may be mingled with the love, but
love must be a constant element. Il
found my little girl WAS growing unami
sbie and plain, said il mother to US the
other day, and, rejecting on it sadly.
could ouly accuse myself of the cause
thereof So changed my management
and improved my opportunity TO praise
and eucour &c her, 70 assure her of my
unbounded affection for her aud lay
earnest desire t.iat she should grow up
TO lovely and harmonious womanhood
As rose opens 10 sunshine. So the child
heart opened in the warmth of the con
stant affection aud earesses showered
upon her; her peeyishness passed away,
her face grew beautiful and now one
look from me brings her 10 my side,
obedient TO my will, and happiest when
she is nearest me- HcHleR's Netrs.
Are your memories long enough to
carry YOU back to the days when little
girls were taught to knit, sew over and
over, fill quilts aud spools for grandma,
those good old days when little girls
were given stints TO do regularly every
day after the dishes were all washed aud
wiped and set away? And if so, have
you ever been sorry for the discipline
vod received in those best of all days
from your faithful mother or grand
mother: But there seems to be lack
of Just such teachers and Just such dis
eipline AT this present time. Not very
long ago heard a young lady say of an
uncle whom she loved and respected,
'.les, he is the best uncle in the world
aud never did but Just one unwiSe thing
in al his life, and that was when he
taught me how to knit"
do not write these things because |
really think that any young girl or
woman should be termed novice siu-
ply because she cannot knit, spin aud
weave as did her grsndmothers. for to
come right down TO the plain facts of the
case what need is there of such knowl
edge when machine manufactured goods
can be obtained ut cost much less than
they can be made by hand, bat it is
rather of the discipline | would speak.
Ii thee is no longer any need for home
knit articles, then our girls should be
taught to do the things there is, or will
bt Httu VI lHttf HOW W u''
when they become women And this is
a part of every mothers duty, to seek,
to know and to teach these things.
The knitting machine has taken the
vi i-tine stints away from our girls.
while the thousands of busy spindles
have crowded the old fashioned spinning
wheel to the most obscure corner of the
attic. But this is no excuse for idlcnc>S
neither should any mother cons slider il
so. If our girls are not obliged to knit,
sew patchwork and spin and weave n
our grandmothers did, there is still work
enough TO do. Let them be taught to
help mother that She, in her declining
years, may have little rest. That she
may have "A little time every day to close
her eyes and think, how sweet To rest
while her own dear ones are close by her,
and performing her own work in her
stead rs she has done, mayb, for tn
form that now rests beneath the low
green mound in the old church yard.
