Children |


The nurse, not conscience, makes towards of IN
an.-Adapted Proverb.
1t is the fashion nowadays for a girl
to be brave; it always was for boy to
be fearless. Therefore what I have to
say applies equally well to both chill
dren, but great deal more to the
mother or nurse who has the care of
their training. We place q higher val
lie on bravery perhaps than on any 9TH
er virtue. Seeing this is SO, it is rather
peculiar that from the very first we try
our best to make towards of our chill
dren. eff yez don't mind, the p'lice-
man'l get yez," says the nurse The
mother shrieks loudly at a spider or
some other harmless creature and fire.
quently cannot conceal her timidity
during thunderstorms. Finally the 9TH
err members of the family put the fin
lshing touches to the childs education
by telling him weird stories of ghosts
and elves
| wonder If mothers realize that the
natural tendency of the child is not to
be timid. | am speaking now, of course,
of the healthy child. 1t is only knowl-
edge which brings fear, not healthy
knowledge, but the sort of lore impart-
ed by the ignorant nurse and the fool
ish mother. A friend of mine tried the
experiment of bringing up her child
without fear" as she put it. In the
first place, she showed no terror or nerv-
BUSINESS when in the presence of the
child, next she explained to him in n
sensible manner the phenomena of ma
ture which usually terrify children,
and she made him see the beautiful
side of them. She told him how the
lightning was sent by God to purify the
air and how the thunder was only
sound and could not hurt him. She
showed him the grandeur and the
beauty of the storm rather than its
terror. 1t was the same with dark
The Weiser signal. [volume] (Weiser, Idaho) 1890-1904, 1901-04-18

ness. She did not fear it. To her it
seemed a mark of Gods goodness,
beautiful and soothing, and the child
saw it in the same way. The result of
this training was that he grew up as
brave as q little lion. And, indeed, the
reason was simple-he had never learn
ed how to fear
AS for the silly practice of filling the
child's brain with tales of the super
natural, there is nothing too severe
that l can say against it. Myths are
bad enough, for, if we lie to our chill
dren, can we expect them to tell us
the truth? There are plenty enough
horrible things in real life without
drawing upon ones imagination and
the child will come only too soon to the
realization of these. Then, too, apart
from the effect on the child's mind the
physical effect cannot be ignored. l
shall never forget the story a friend of
mine told me.
1--WE are both of us small children,
my little brother and l." she said,
when one night after supper nurse
told us ghost stories as we sat in the
dying freight. Although we were
ashamed to show it, we were frighten-
ed nearly to death. About an hour
afterward, when we had been tucked
in our cots and were supposed to be
sound asleep, my little brother jumped
from his bed with such scream of
fear that | shall never forget it. Grand
mamma rushed up stairs and found
him writing in a fit. For weeks his
life was despaired of. The cause of
his terror was the family cat, who had
strayed up stairs, attracted by the
warmth. Her greenish eyes shining
out of the darkness had completed the
effect of the ghost stories on the
frightened boys mind"
If volumes of heroic deeds took the
place of the nurses repertory of ogre
tales, this world would be a stronger
and better one. Timidity and weak
ness would in great part disappear,
and brave deeds would be the rule in
stead of the exception.

cloth toques and hats in rough frieze,
trimmed with flowers and a gold bow
on one side. Two fancies of the Rue
de la Paix by their daring and original
Of fashion to renewed interest One is
a marvellous confection of felt, velvet,
ribbon and flowers, all carried out in
shades of mauve; the other a dashing
picture hat of black felt, with long
black plume and bow of gold gauze
ribbon
And just here may be sung the glo-
ries of the rose, and especially the gold
rose. In white and colors come the
roses. One rose may rest upon the
forehead, a very chic style; a single
blossom may be tucked daintily in be-
hind the ear, OF Il woman may be a
veritable queen of roses, with half
dozen arranged at fancy. To be bien
coiffe and, for the most part, elaborate
ly coiffe, is one of fashions most strict
requirements this season, and the rose
is the freshest frill to that end which
the mysterious power that makes all
modes has launched for long time. 1t
is almost an old tale to speak of the
large white ribbon bows, the pink or
blue bows, the velvet bows and the
dainty little scarfs of black or white
silk muslin twisted in waving tresses.
Wreaths of silk or velvet leaves there
are in the clever ornaments of the mil
| liners and Of silver in the costlier
achievements of the jewelers.. These
necessitate coil low at the neck, and
the ornament emulates Greek wreath.
For ball dresses chiffon and tulle
roses are the rage, and these are some
times arranged as a border to the skirt
which is of chiffon, mousseline de sole
crepe de chine or new kind of rather
heavy Grape. Surely Dame Fashion
never studies the question of expendi
ture, for the long skirts of today are
subject to utter destruction in the ball
room. Evening skirts, even for dane
ing, are worn longer than ever. Theil
only amelioration lies in the multifa
rious fiounces with which these Ions
skirts are bordered from a little below
the knee to the hem, inside and outside
and these keep the skirt out from thu
feet and prevent utter destruction.
A worn waist can be rejuvenate(
somewhat by lace bolero or one O.

ends of lace. Nothing lends such al
effect of freshness to the neat tailo
made frock, which has perhaps seel
better days, as the addition of a tull

should be either silver or gilt, accord

They were deathly sick all night, and
the Neshit girl was little better. Il
never saw girls so drunk" said the
police matron. s.They were simply
limp. As fast as 1 propped up an
other dropped over. until we finally
got them and the place cleaned up and
put them to bed"

These facts won Welchman a repri-
mand from the court, with the assur-
ance from Chief Kessler that If whisky
was sold hereafter at the Shady Side
to 14-year-old girls, the proprietor
would be prosecuted to the extent OF
the law. Welchman's only excuse
was that his five wine rooms were so
dark in the daytime that he couldn't
tell whether the inmates were school
girls or women.
The mother of the Murray girl and
sister of the Nesbit girl were in
court to plead for them, and Maj. j. Nj.
Beardsley was there to ask for the
clemency of the court. When it was
thought that perhaps the girls had
had but one drink, he conducted the
defense on the theory that they had
been given knockout drops" but
after it developed that they had con-
sumed whisky by the quart, he
could only throw them on the mercy
of the court.
1t looked as if the girls were telling
the truth when they said that that
first drink made them oblivious to
what had happened afterward, and
that their minds were a blank as to
their conduct thereafter. The court
concluded to temper justice with mer-
cy, and dismissed them ON payment
of the costs. He read the girls and
their relatives lecture. however, and
assured them that repetition of the
occurrence would result in a different
way. Welchman was fined $25 for
running a disorderly house.
