MOTHER AND CHILD.

In Prof. Dewey's admirable lecture
on childhood, delivered last Friday
evening, he gave an explanation of the
practice of lying so frequently seen in
children. This practice, he justly
claims, is not due TO vicious or de-
PRAYED nature, or to any desire to do
harm, but is due to excitable magma
lions, and natural vivacity
The Professor discussed at some
length the important part the magma
ton held in child nature -
When one considers the multitudes
of children who are whipped, shut up,
or otherwise punished, by parents and
guardians, for telling lies, one may in
dulge in a resentful feeling and charge
that the parents themselves should be
severely punished for their ignorance
of child nature, and the unnecessary
pain they inflict without the least justi-
aspects of civilization is the spectacle
or parents losing their heads over the
irregular and only temporary aberra-
tions of a child's imagination, in
dence of moral depravity. The mother
who gives considerable play to her
own imagination, in social gossip, will
earnestly pray God to make her child
truth, although the untruthfulness is a
temporary phase of the child's nature,
and will disappear like the measles, or
any transient skin disease.
Of course, it cannot be expected that
parents who have not given any
earnest study to the operations of their
own minds, should be able to compre-
bend the subtle and complicated struc-
ture of a child's mind, in which lie
inherited tendencies of which little is
known. 1t is much easier to punish a
child for an error due to remote, Or
transient causes than it is go through
the laboriOus work of studying the
childs nature and the methods of the
best training. Before a civil engineer
expects to secure any responsible en-
plOyment, he must spend years of his
time in preparing for intelligent work.
But the young women who in the
course of time, are to become the
mothers of the coming generation, with
the awful responsibility of educating
during their early years, are
kept in ignorance of the subject which
is of more importance than all other
human labor, and enter motherhood
with a dense ignorance of their duties
and responsibilities. lone good mother
is worth a hundred school masters
is an old German proverb. Because
Of this common ignorance of child life,
it is that so few men say with Lord
Lansdale, eff the world were put into
one scale, and my mother into the
other, the world would kick the beam"

KISSING BUG HARMLESS.
\ Jersey Entomologist Says They Are
Not Poisonous.


Not Poisonous.
Pretty maidens with tempting Hps
need not be any more afraid OF the
kissing bug than they are of young
men, according to the statement made
by Professor John B. Smith, the New
Jersey State Entomologist, who de-
clares solemnly and with an air of con-
victfon that the bite of the insect is as
harmless as a common, every-night
bedbug.
Il have been bitten by them many a
time" said Professor Smith. and if
anyone will bring me live kissing bug
will let il sting to its hearts content.
We are simply going through a craze
like the one We had when spider bites
were popular. Everybody who was
bitten by any kind of an insect was
bitten by a spider. The same is true
now. kissing bug feeds on caterpil-
lars and other insects, and may thus
sometimes convey poisons, but the in
sect is no more numerous or danger
Gus now than it ever was

A PERILOUS EXPERIMENT.

a Subscriber, living on the Island OF
Mani, seriously asks the Advertiser,
why it is that able bodied and intelH-
gent balloons have not been, hereto
fore, employed by men, as other ami
mails have been. He may as well ask
why electricity was not used as motor
power from the days OF Moses to the
year 1880. There is something in the
action of the 'fulness of time" which
is not understood, in its treatment
of evolution. Perhaps the old darby,
in the times of slavery, gave the
answer, though not wholly salts
factory. Looking through the bars of
the balloons cage, at a Circus exhibit
ton, the venerable negro visitor
watched him for some moments, and
then remarked: You mighty wise old
Teller, you jess speak English, and
white men put hoe in yer hand
less'n no time" On the other hand
Heine, the German poet, looking at the
large ape in the Geological gardens of
Paris, said: He sits there in melanch-
tressed at the conduct of men, his des-
cendants, who daily commit more fol-
lies than all of the tribe of apes that
exist"
But, why should men employ SINH
ans, when their fellow beings will
work in some places for five cents a
day? The Simians may be the re-
served forces Of civilization. Indus
trial evolution results in great fac
tories, in which unskilled men and
women stand up, and feed bits of metal
into a machine, for ten hours d day,
and do nothing more. But, in all in
telligent industrial work, the brain be-
hind the hand. has the most value, and
as the education of the workman in
creases, the value of his work in
creases.
Where does the able bodied Simian
come in? Only, when men no longer
do brainless work, and the creatures
of a lower order must do it.
If the pelican can be profitably used
in catching fish, why indeed should
not the baboon be profitably used in
stripping cane?
The scheme of adding Simians to our
industrial forces should not be en-
cOuraged, if it endangers the social
fabric" If the balloons, under some
well organized form of University EX-
tension, should suddenly experience
the dawn of consciousness, there would
be the danger on any plantation which
employs them in large numbers Of a
strike, in which they would appear,
in checkered trousers and silk hats OBJ
tanned at the plantation store, before
the plantation manager, and exclaim,
I'VE have got our manhood at last. |
1t is now fifteen dollars a month or
fight" Each one of them, claiming to
DE "the man with the hoe and, as
such, entitled to civil rights, would add
another to the many problems which
are before the people of Hawaii.
The subject needs careful handling. |
If it proved to be Improbable to en-
ploy them on the plantation, one or
more of them would, as paragraphists
in the columns of the local daily de- |
voted to professional patriotism, in
crease its deserved reputation for
typographical wit.
While the economic question of the
employment of Simian labor is attrac-
tive, the moral and political side may
be equally important.

Uncle Allen" Discovered His Loss When

Some thief stole Governor Gamblers
thanksgiving turkey.
The governor had fine Hall county
gobbler that he had been fattening for
weeks. The turkey was to gracethe ex-
ecutive table at the mansion thursday,
but there is probably only one person
in all the world who knows where that
turkey will be served. And that person
will not tell.
Monday night the gobbler went to
roost on the low limb of tree IN the
rear of the mansion. That same night
the governor went to a dinner with a
party of insurance men at the Klmball
and later opened the fair for the H0-
brew Orphans Home.
The next morning he was up at
O'Clock and, as is his custom, was max
ing fire III his room when he heard
his turkey in his back yard. Mrs.
Gambler spoke of the noise, but the
governor, who is an old hunter, SAID
that it was the habit of wild turkeys to
gobbe about daylight.
Directly some one was heard run
ming down Cain street.
Then all was still.
The turkeys shrill gobble was heard
no more.
A servant came in and was dispatch
ed to see how the gobbler Jared.
Presently the servant returned ana

TRICKY TRAMPS CAUGHT.

Two tricky tramps. who struck the

they did not like the town, and made
attempt to leave it on freight train
over the B. & w. road last night. In
stead of getting under thertrucks, as
such ssWeary Willies" usually do, these
tranps were more tricky. They got
into stock car loaded with horses and
each mounted horse with the inten
ton of riding on horseback and on the
train to Brunswick. Their clever
scheme was broken up, however, for
one of the railroad hands discovered
the pair who were trying to steal a
ride and made them come down from
their mounts. The railroad people at
first decided to turn the tramps over
TO the police, but were afterwards pre-
vailed upon to let them go and they
began their journey to Brunswick GA
