DON'T STAY LONG.

They don't stay with us very long
the boys and girls, we mean-just a
few years, first as household pets and
treasures, then as serious responsible
ties, then for little while as helpers
and companions, and then they are
gone like the birds in the autumnal
days, and father and mother once more
sit down alone and talk of the boys and
girls scattered and gone. Whether you
and mother shall be so left depends
very much on how you treated the lit
tie folks during the days when they
were with you. 1t is a very sorry
proposition when the only interest chill
dren have in the old home is the inter-
est they may have when the probate
court divides the estate.

Gail Hamilton was once asked the
question, What shall be the education
Of a young womanY' and her reply is
worth quoting; First good manners,
and last and all the way between-good
manners. Good manners imply every
saving grace known under heaven among
men and women. Good manners are the
absolutely transparent medium of con-
veying to the world the benevolence Of

include every department of the human
being-body and soul and spirit, heart
and mind imagination and conscience,
discrimination and judgment. The whole
