A Little Bows Heroism.

Calling his son, q bright little boy some
four years old, he told him to get ready
to accompany them. The child counte-
nance fell and the father said:
Don't you want to go, Willie?"

Putting the Little Ones to Bed.

There is probably no one who cannot
look back to the time in his early life
when fear at night was not more or less
prominent feeling There were then, as
now, plenty Of i'll advised older one to fill
the children's minds with ugly stories OF
ghosts, hobgoblins and the sort which
they said ''would appear to them after
dark il they were not good children. -
Even to the very little ones they would
say: Nov if you're not good the bears
will catch YOU"
In all these ways thoughtless persons
have thrown over the child O. nameess
fear which follows him for many q year
and which is often never entirely eradi-
Gated. A child is naturally afraid of the
dark. 1t is not at all surprising There
is something uncanny and weired in the
fitting shadows as they take fanciful
shapes in the mind of an imaginative
child. Lack OF sympathy with him in his
nervous, childish fancies, scolding and
blaming him for what he cannot help is
cruel indeed.
Putting ourselves in their places is al
ways q safe guide in this matter, never
forgetting that the little darlings are I'M
able to reason On this subject and have
not the experience of years to fortify
themselves against fancied evils. Har-
per's Bazaar has an article so exceedingly
Opportune on this matter that we are led
to make liberal quotations:
"The mother who puts the timid child
to bed and takes away the light and goes
downstairs and leaves him to his coniur-
ing, careless and Indifferent and disbelev-
ing, or bent on overcoming the mischief
fOrcibly, is destroying something that

herself and the day will come when fate

TO COMIOrU MN, 10 see now Itr IL Is pOSSI-
BILE with him to subdue the fear. If she
cannot stay with him herself, she can at
least leave the door open, so that he may
hear the cheerful downstairs voices, the
hum of life, not to be shut into his tomb,
as the unformulated thought of his des-
peratc little mind makes it ; shecan leave
o lamp on the hearth and so let there be
some light to dispel his fancies and to
keep back the dark and it's unshapen Wis
ions. She may regard it as trifing, but
to him it is tremendous, and if she is wise
either in mother love or human kindness
she will notlet the imaginative and sensi-
tive child suffer more than it must, re-
membering that that temperament, if it
has more to enjoy through life than 9th
ers, has also much, much more to suffer.

calm to the little being out of the expert
ence and the last going to bed is as bad
as the first, and all threats have only
