THE LITTLE BIRD TELLS.

From the Atlanta Constitution.
It's Strange how little boys mothers
Can find it all out as they do.
Ira Teller does anything naughty,
or says anything that's not true
They'll look at you Just for moment
Till your heart in your bosom swells.
And then they know all about it
For little bird tells
Now where the little bird comes from.
Or where the little bird goes,
Ifhe's covered with beautiful plnmage.
OR black as the king of the crows;
Ifhis voice is as hoafse as the ravens.
Or clear as the ringing bells.
know not; but this | am sure Of
A little bird tells
The moment you think a thing wicked.
The moment you do thing bad.
or angry, or sullen, or hateful,
Get ugly. or stupid, or mad.
or tease n dear brother or sister
That instant your sentence he knclls,
And the whole to mamma in minute
That little bird tells
You may be in the depths of the closet
Where nobody sees but mouse:
You may be all alone in the cellar,
You may be on the top Of the house;
You may be IN the dark and the silence,
or out in the woods and the dells-
No matter Wherever it happens.
The little bird tells
And the only continuance TO stop him
Is just to be sure what TO say
sure Of your facts and your iancies.
sure of your work and your play;
Be honest, he brave, and be kindly.
BE gentle and loving as we'll,
And then you can laugh at the stories
The little bird tells

conveys suggestion that if
proper decorum were exhibited
by the young people the idea of such a play
would not have entered the mind of the
author. He knew if he had seen young
men and women acting toward each other
IN France as he had seen young Americans
doing, he would reach conclusion unfa-
yorable to the purity of their relations.
The license existing and increasing in
many circles of American society has
caused this age to be not inappropriately
termed the age of shoddy, for it is at

asserts that the American character pos
sesses that true independence requiring no
such surveillance, in order to maintain
real womanliness and intrinsic dignity and
purity.
IL mas often occurred to me that the best
way to solve this vexed question would be
TO require young men to be carefully chap
eroned. 1t would result in great good. I
feel sure, to all concerned. Those unfort-
innate beings who are deaf, dumb and very
near-slghted, thus 6ebarred from obtaining
otner situations, would be in great demand.
1t is well-known fact that when one fac
ulty is impaired the remaining ones are
rendered more acute.
How many young men would be glad
to know just when to say good
night! How often a call is acceptable.
ana also how with tact and deIicacy to
lead the chosen fair one to thoughts of the

wish young men would take this matter
into consideration, but in their choice of a
guardian attendant beware of the kind de-
scrlbed in the concluding anecdote for
which the Boston Herald is responsible:
IAN amusing experience is told by one of
party OF young people whose chaperon
was hastily replaced by delightful woman
whose ideas of the onerous duties were. to
say the least, unique. 1t was at the sea-
shore In Maine. The party were greeted
each morning and anxiously asked if they
were enjoying themselves, but otherwise
were allowed entire freedom. One lovely
evening pretty girl and her escort went
to the chaperon: Can we go out rowing.
Mrs. - they asked timidly. 4 see no
objection, was the answer. We've beenr

whole European plan,'' so far as it is ap-
piled ON the continent of Europe, is plan
based upon utter distrust and suspicion it
IS the French theory that girls will become
untruthful if left to themselves and will do
every other wrong. This, to the Anglo
Saxon race, seems very demoralizing.
Suspicion" said Sir Philip Sidney, sis
the way to lose that which we. fear to
lose"
cannot imagine anything less likely to
create upright and noble character in man
or woman than the systematic application
of the European plan" One thing is
certain, that the best preparation
for freedom is freedom, and that no young
girls are so poorly prepared for American
life as those whose early years are passed
in Europe, The worst imprudences. the
most unmaidenly actions that l have ever
heard of in decent society have been on the
part of young women educated in Europe,
