OF all the teaching in the world
ninety nine one hundredths at least Is
done by fathers and mothers. Every
child learns more in the way of actual
facts from the day of its birth until
the end of its seventh year than 1t can
possibly learn in all the rest of its life
put together. During these first hours
and years of life the child learns 10
walk, to talk, and. what is far more
important, 1t learns the beginnings of
self control. During the first years the
child puts itself in touch with the
world into which 1t is born, and in
these early years the parents, and the
mother especially, are the teachers.
They start the operations of the mind
giving 1t its first bent. And however
able the teachers of the future may be
however conscientious and learned, Ii
the great majority of cases the child's
future, its success or failure, depends
upon the first teaching influences OF
the mother and father.-New York

rieIh For SCIENTIFIC Study.

The National Geographic Magazine
suggests field for scientific study, now
neglected in which man OF wealth
might be most useful to the cause Of
huma: knowledge. The field Is the
volcanic belt reaching from Martinique
to the Pacific
Since early In 1902 the volcanoes Of
this belt have been almost constantly
in eruption. The overwhelming trng-
cdy of st Pierre attracted worldwide
attention, but losses Of life running In
to thousands have also occurred at the
other end Of this belt.
The eruption Of Mount Pelee has
been carefully studied by several scien-
fists Of note, but none has studied those
Of the Santa Marin volcano in Guate-
mala and OF Mount Collma In Mexico.
Although these volcanic activities seem
obviously connected, all the attention
given them by science has been at one
end Of the zone.
"Fhc trouble with all past invcstiga
lions of volcanoes" says the Geo
graphic Magazine. has been that the
study has not been sufficiently complete
and general. krakaton. Vcsuvlus and
Mauna Lon have been carefully exam
lned and watched by expert geologtsts,
but these Investigations have been
handicapped by being limited to a
small area OF activity. An opportunity
like the present one for studying &C
tive volcanic conditions at several con
Meeting points over n wide region has
never before been presented"
The Geographic Magazine estimates
that $1,000 would suffice to make the
necessary Investigations. "a wiser eX-
penditure for scientific eXplora ton"
1t declares, could not be made In view
Of our absolute Ignorance of the causes
of volcanic action and the tremendous
revelations that are possible"
At time when explorations of the
polar regions, from which nothing d.
rectly beneficial Is expected, are 30
literally sustained there should be
very little difficulty in finding patron
for work in n field in which 80 much
direct good may be accomplished.

The happiness of homo life depends
largely on the health of the wife and
mother. When her strength Is unequal
to the daily cares and duties of home,
the evening hour finds her utterly worn
out, too tired to talk, too weary to read.
At first even she is glad to have her
husband go out for the evening. She
wants rest and quiet at any price. And
so the foundation for marital misery L.
often laid in ill-health.
Bat when the housewife is healthy
and strong she finds In her days duties
only a sufficient outlet for her efiergv.
She looks forward all day to the evening
hour spent with her husband over a
book, or passed in quiet conversation.
And every evening so spent draws tho
wife nearer to the husband and knits
together the twain who are tone flesh 4"
in the higher unity of one mind.
Every woman should know that the
general health depends on the local
womanly health. 1rregularity, weaken
ing drains, inflammation, liberation and
female weakness are disorders which sap
the woman's strength and destroy her
happiness with her health.
