OK Bow Tunnel is Through.

c. +. Highbee, who has had charge of
the work on the Ok Bow tunnel. says
the Capital News, Is in town, Mr..
Higl,ee says a hole was put through the
rock several days ago connecting the
two ends Of the tunnel, which gave
good circulation of air and relieved the
oppressive heat that the workmen had
been contending with. He said the
tunnel would be completed about Janu-

DUTY OF PARENTS TO CHILDREN.

/ DUT1 Ot fAhENio ~ IHllDhEN.
Socrates observing his eldest son, Lamprocles, il
rage with his mother, the sharp tongued Xantippc
rebuked him in discourse duly reported by the ad
miring Xenophon. Can there be any strcter obi
CATION than children are laid under to their pa
rentsf" asked the philosopher For it is they whC
gave them being, and who have put them in a con
dition to behold all the wonders of nature, and tc
lpartake of the many good things exhibited before
them by the bounty of providence and which are sc
delightful that there is not anything that men more
dread than to leave them" The philosopher then
describes the anxietes and the pangs endured the
labors undergone the solcitude exhibited by the
mother for her child and he presents all these con
siderations to Lamproces as good reasons why he
should be respectful even to the ill-humored
Xantippe,
The duty of children to their parents is empha'
sized by all preachers Christian, Hebrew and pagan
and the argument of Socrates is repeated from many
pulpits, Honor thy father and thy mother, saith
the commandment But this obligation between pa.
rent and child is not unilatera but mutual, although
the duty of parents to honor their children and show
them gratitude is not often touched upon by the
homists. After all, we must remember children arr
not consulted about being brought into the world
and the action of the parents in bringing them hther
is not inspired by any parental love for the children
If we ought to bless our parents for all the good that
we enjoy in life ougth we not also curse them for all
the evil that happens to us between birth and deaths
have questioned whether it is worth
while being born; whether it is not kindness to leave
an infant in that state of oblivion and nothngnesS
where it has reposed, without pain, from all eternity
Parents having brought a child into the world
are responsible for it, They owe the child duty to
give it the best nurture the best education, and gen
orally. the best bringing up within their means. lay-
inc brought child into the world they are under
an obligation to make the child's way as smooth and
happy as possible and Xantippe, scolding Lampro'
cles was really violating her duty as much as he vo
lated his duty by falling into rage with his mother
A good many parents look on their children as
.hattes who owe numerous duties, but to whom no
lutes are owing. But if there were such thing as
weighing and measuring duties, the greater burden
n all likelihood, would be found to rest upon the
parents It is right enough that children should be
respectful and obedient, and natural enough that
hey should be affectonate; but children, too, have
their rights
