Ha,ptl's Bd,ur.
Children are naturally truthful and
generous; and what n comment it is on
our attitude towards them that they 40
often become otherwise before they
reach the school age! Children shrinl,
from censurc. and soon learn to try to
hide their mistakes to avoid being
blamed. Besides, many loving, intelli.
gent parents deceive thei: children by
act If not by word and even baby
takes in this sort oil thing rs something
to be tried, and il he is bright, will re.
turn it fourfold. We also Judge their
baby prattle and reasoning from our
standpoint, not from their ideal world,
and so accuse them of that OF which
they are entirely innocent, thus uwak-
ening and emphasizing what we would
prevent. 1t takes wise insight to do.
tccs the difference between half-devel-
opcd good that ought to be let alone and
q fault that needs to be corrected.
A friend onca told me that she did
not know what to do with her little
boy, four years ole, who had for the last
few days heen telling all sorts OF un-
truths, with no reason or sense in
them. For instance, that morning she
told him she did not want him to carry
out, as he had been doing through the
winter, his little basket OF apples to
share with his playmates, as tho apples
were nearly gone. Two or three hours
after, she heard his little feet on the
cellar stairs. She went out and saw
him coming up the stairs with his
basket Of apples.
"Why, Ebcn, did not tell you not
children ?"
"Yes'm." answered the little fellow,
pursuing his way.
"Why do you bring them. then ?"
ppm not bringing them" said he.
"ls not that basket Of apples you
have i'll your hand?"
"ies, 'm."
swell. then, YOU are bringing up ap-
pies. as | told you 10, are you not?"
"No, mamma" he said, with an hon
est expression OF face.
She was shocked Mt his deliberate and
atupid untruth, and also that he should
seem so Indifferent about it. The child
was. and is now that he is grown, per-
fcctly honest and truthful; but here
was 4 phase OF development when the
reirnction OF mental rays produced this
crooked result in his mind The prime
clement OF untrutll is deception, and
here was no intention 10 deceive.

The experience of this winter has
demonstrated mole clearly than ever,
il itwerc possible, that the only chance
Tor honesty in any branch Of admins
tration in the city lies in the union OF
all good citizens against Tammnny Hail..
II Democrats and Republicans do not
disregard party wholly in their action
for municipal administration, Tam
many will remain supreme. The great
advantage OF the now City Club is that
it prevents the waste OF all the energy
and time and money when are put into
the impromptu efforts to deal with
Tnmmany Hall. Even in tho event Of
defeat, all these resources will not be
scattered, but will remain for renewed
effort. A still greater advantage will be
the weakening OF party idolatry, which
must necessarily follow the cordial CO..
operation OF men OF different parties to
promote honest non-partisan public nd
ministration. Just in the degree that
tho spirit from which the club springs
extends, q wholesome political indepen-
dence will be stimulated.
