Fault-Finding,.

| Few people can discern the
| real secret of successful rebuke,
Many are altogether too apt to
| increase rather than diminish
the errors to which they object.
| Misdirected efforts to subdue a
child or an adults even tenden-
cies generally serve to infiame
them. Pastors, parents and
teachers, the appointed guar
dians of our communities, some
times allow their protests
against wrong to degenerate
into a tempersome, peevish, or
melancholy whine. None will
deny there is need for fault
finding. Discrepancies IN con
duct demand skillful repression,
and immoral traits must be
pruned away if the character
of the boy or man is to mature
into the white flower Of a blame
less life. But is there not a
little too much of gratuitous
fault-finding? With some peo-
pie, like Mrs. Poyer in adam
Bede, z IL becomes a very hate
full habit, to which they are
chronically addicted. Contin-
nal references to mistakes in
duce a willful perseverance in
them, and familiarity with
incessant complaint, always
breeds contempt for it. The
safest rule seems to be that
only when all other and gentler
resources have been tried and
proved useless should we ven
ture upon the distinct mention
of specific faults And a great
deal of our power to vanquish
the fault lies in the possession
of "sanctified common sense"
Occasionally our righteous in
dignation overbalances good
judgement, and we reprimand
the culprit in a tone, language
and temper which may be a
greater error than that against
which they are directed. II

It,. She il not vicious-she is full of animal
spirits and precocious feminine instincts.
Hundreds of young American girls are
like her, and hundreds of stupid American
parents fail to sec the necessity and duty of
guarding over such girls.
If by accident they do discover the truth
about their daughters they straightwSy
shut them up, treat them harshly and de-
nouace them as vicious minded. The
father and mother l mention would NO
doubt do the same, forgetting their own
runaway marriage and the adventures
which preceded.
A girl like this ought to be treated very
gently and with affection. She ought to
be wisely taught and entertained. She
should pass many hours in active physical
exercise. The gymnasium il far better for
such a girl than the boarding school. She
should have no idle hours. no condolences
with strange ompanions, NO hidden books
to read until she has crossed the dangerous
chasm which spans girlhood and woman
hood.

l do NOT think elopements from boarding

than good and wise parents.
wish We could have q training school for
parents-a chool where the physical and

should be discussed, and where the impera-
tive duty of watching over this physical and
moral nature should be impressed upon the
mind of every woman and man before they
were allowed to procure a marriage certifi-
cate. This would DO a far better thing for
the world at large than the boarding school.

causes more harm and mischief to 60 on
