INQUIRY into the subject of explo-

these consists in moving water butts

LEARNING WALK,
The Proper Age When Child Should
Be Taught to Walk.

The Proper Age When Child Should
Be Taught to Walk.
People sometimes ask, at what age
can we seat a child in chair; when
put him on his legs; how old must he
be before we teach him to walk? The
answers are easy. He must not be-
made to sit till he has spontaneously
sat up in his bed and has been able to.
hold his seat. This sometimes hap
pens in the sixth Or seventh month,
sometimes later. The sitting position
is not without danger, even when he
takes it himself; imposed prematurelv
upon him, it tires the backbone and
may interfere with the growth, so the
child should never be taught to stand
or to walk. That is his affair, not
ours. Place him on a carpet in a.
healthy room or in the open air, and
let him play in freedom, roll, try to
go ahead on his hands and feet or 90
backward, which he will do more sue
cessfully at first, it all gradually
strengthens and hardens him. Some
day he will manage to get upon his
knees, another day to 60 forward up
on them, and then to raise himself up
against the chairs He thus learns to
do all he can, as fast as he can, and
no more.
But, they say, he will be longer in
learning to walk if he is left to 60 on
his knees Or his hands and feet indef-
nitely. What difference does it make
if, exploring the world in this way, he
becomes acquainted with things,
learns to estimate distances, strength
ems his legs and back, prepares HIM
self, in short, to walk better when he
gets to walking? The important thing
is, not whether he walks now or then;
but that he learn to guide himself, to-
help himself and to have confidence.
in himself [ hold. without exaggera-
ton, that education of the character
is going on at the same time with
training in locomotion. and that the.
way one learns to walk is not without
moral importance.-The Popular
Science Monthly.
