Unless she 10 . healthy mother. Nc
woman can. If the baby has drained
her vitality; if its care is a tax; if, ia
short, the baby is burden instead of a
blessing, how can she enjoy itl She
loves it, but she cannot feed it. She
yearns for it, but has not the strength
to fondle it.
There is nothing more beautiful in the
world than a healthy mother and her
healthy child. The madonna is the
highest reach of human art In the
serene strength which art gives to the
typical mother and child there is distinct
denial of suffering and weakness as a
necessity of motherhood. But how few
women are there to whom motherhood
is naturally an abiding Joy. In how
many cases a woman dates her loss of
health from the birth of her child To
all such suffering women DR.. Pierce's Fa-
vorite Prescription comes as a veritable
god-send. 1t prepares the mother for
her hour of trial, tranquilizes her nerves,
encourages her appetite, and brings her
restful sleep. 1t makes the baby's adj
vent practically painless, and gives the
mother abundant strength to nurse and
nourish her child.
Every claim made for uFavorite Pre-.
scrption" is supported by the testinion.
ials of wives and mothers, thousands in
number, and covering in their several
experiences the whole range of womanly
suffering. III great number of cases
after the utter failure of all doctors and
medicines, DR.. Picrce's Favorite Pre-
scription, tried as last resort, has eff.
fected a perfect and permanent cure.
Sick women are invited to consult DIR.

fdences held under the seal of strict
professional privacy. Address DIR. K. v.

CHAPTER XIII.

THE EDUCATION FOR SIMPLICITY.
THE simple life being above all
else the product Of a direction
Of mind. 1t Is natural that edu-
4 cation should have much to do
with 1t. In general. but two methods
OF rearing children are practiced. The
first Is to bring them up for ourselves,
the second to bring them up for them
selves.
In the first case the child is looked
upon as complement Of the parents:
he is part Of their property, occupies a
place among their possessions. Some
times this place is the highest, espe-
cially when the parents value the life
Of the affections. Again, where ma
terial interests rule, the child holds
second, third or even the last place.
In any case he is nobody. While he
Is young he gravitates round Ills par
ents. not only by obedience. which Is
right, but by the subordination Of all
his originality. all his being. As he
grows older this subOrdinatiOn be-
comes veritable confiscation, extend
ing to his IDEAS, his feelings, every
thing. His minority becomes perpet-
ual. Instead Of slowly evolving into
independence the man advances into
slavery. He is what he Is permitted
to be, what his fathers business, re-
ligious beliefs. political opinions or
aesthetic tastes require him to be. He
will think. speak, act and marry &C.
cording to the understanding and lim-
Its Of the paternal absOlutism. This
family tyranny may be exercised by
people with no strength Of character.
1t is only necessary for them to be
convinced that good order requires the
child to be the property Of the parents.
In default Of mental force. they pos.
sess themselves Of him by other means
by signs. supplications or base Sc
auctions. II they cannot fetter him
they snare his feet in traps. But that
he should live In them, through them,
for them, is the only thing admissible
Education Of this sort is not the
practice Of families only, but also Of
great social organizations whose chief
educational function consists in putting
a strong hand on every newcomer, in
order to fit him, in the most iron
bound fashion, into existing forms. 1t
Is the attenuation. pulverization and
assimilation Of the individual In So
cial body. be it theocratic, communis-
tic or simply bureaucratic and routi-
nary. Looked at from without, a like
system seems the ideal Of simplicity
In education. Its processes. In fact.
are absolutely slmplistic. and if a
man were not somebody, II he were
only sample Of the race. this would
be the perfect education. AS all wild
beasts, all fish and insects of the same
genus and species have the same mark
ings. so we should all be Identical,
having the same tastes. the same lam
guage. the same beliefs. the same tend
encies. But man Is not simply n
specimen Of the race. aud for that rea.
son this sort Of education Is far from

to look back longingly upon the past,
it is also true that the heroic of
every age have believed their own
time TO be pregnant with great issues.
And they are always right. Each
year brings its own problems to work
out, its on challenge to the heart in
which beats bright, red blood, its
own great food for the race. Each
age has, moreover, at stake increasing
ly vast issues as the world becomes
more complex and more human.

The drought that we have been en-
joying (Y) for several months past
has at last been broken. Thursday
afternoon a gentle down pour began
and continued for twenty four hours,
soaking into the ground to depth
of twelve to eighteen inches. 1t is
something unusual to see such a
steady rain at this season of the year
Usually the summer showers are
cloud bursts and do considerable
dmaage and practically no good,
except to cool the air, but the rain
of last week cooled the air, soaked
the parched ground and revived the
hopes of the farmer. Although some
damage was done to the hay that was
down, yet the good done will more
than compensate the farmers for all
they have lost.
