Parents have proudly told me of
sickcning battles with their children.
will pitted against will. till at last the
stronger physique gained the mastery,
and the 'child's will was broken. ="
Such victories are worse than defeats.
| have seen father and his little boy
stand pitted against each other with
look III each face that | could call
nothing but hatred; and when thought
OF the power of the one and the help
lessness of the other | could not but
admire the boys pluck. There should
be no such occasions. The parent
stands convicted of utter stupidity in
finding himself in any such situation.
There are times when it is wiser for
the parent to ignore some mood on the
child's part. The part of the parent
should be in ever seeking the wise
opportunity to impress the child with
the virtue that is the reverse OF some
fault it falls. into. Children pass
through various phases, and some
dragon of a fault that one has been
worrying over and planning against
suddenly vanishing into thin air and
is no more. Sometimes one fixes u
fault by noticing it too much. 1t be-
comes an expression OF nervousness.
The child repeats Il fault through an
inability to pass over it. 1t becomes
like hard word in tho spelling book
that he has met before. He recog-
nizes the word without knowing its
its name, and at the same moment
remembers his struggles with it. and
the painful impression fills him with
nervousness, his mind becomes con-
fused and he cannot control his
thought. 1t is wise with fault, as
with the hard word, to let it go to es-
cape it. Omit the hard word; avoid
anything to excite the habitual fault.
Presently the child forgets the fault.
1t may be said that injudicious parents
often create their children's faults. -

picturesque, festooned with gay-colored
wreaths of flowers and branches of the
lime tree.
They wear barely any clothes. and the
men are beautifully tattooed. They were
selling lines, green cocoanuts, cats eyes

and wood carving.
The children are very pretty. The pas
sengers would throw a coin into the sea
and they would dive down and fetch it

A Methodist Paper That Wants Its Read
ers to Know the Truth.
"a Woman in NJ nncapolis Methodist Herald
One of the m st absurd errors afloat is
the idea that Mr. George wishes to have
the land divided up or parceled out
among the present inhabitants; another
that he would have Government take
possession of the whole and rent it out
to tho highest bidders. The Youths

owners for any restitution of the reve-
nues long stolen from the people in their
blindness and ignorance of true justice.
The revolution he proposes, though inn
mese and far-reaching in its benificent
consequences, is very peaceful revolu-

his proposed system of taxation he would
simply turn that great and increasing
stream of money which flows steadily
into the pockets of the land owner,

public benefit, even though he spend all
his time ioa ling in a bar-room-that
