BE YOURSELF.

One should not repudiate him
self. There is no surer method
of discomf fort and no shorter road
to failure. To speak in natural
tones and to act without af-
fiction; to dress in such a way
as not to invite comment, to act
without being hampered with ar
tificial rules; and to live un-
daunted by conventionalism is not
to live in vain. 1t is to escape
much that SpOils life
Sincerity is a genuine comfort
as well as a great virtue. The
people who are unaffected and
genuine are not the people to ask
'Is life worth liying9' 1t would
be- as sane for a man with sound
lungs, standing in the free open
air of a mountain summit, to ask.
lis air worth breathingW
Some courage is needed to be
natural and a higher kind ofcour-
age, too, than that which marches
behind the safe end of a gun
That moral courage which is not
intimidated by appearance nor
cowed by custom is finer article
than the daring of the Spectator,
or the steady nerve of the soldier
in physical peril. 1t takes bray.
cry of the best stamp to be true
to oneself.
Ridicule belittles the enter
prise; expediency throws doubt
upon it; circumstances embarass
and make difficult the adventure
of being natural. But he who in
the face of it all, manages to keep
loyal to the inner voice, to keep
faith with himself and to main
tain Self-reSpect has won the bat
tie in a crucial battle.
Thus while it is true that one
who keeps his self-respect has
the worlds, it is also true that he
must decredit the worlds to main
tain his own. The public may
chatter about what a MAJ has,
but it asks, before it quits
talking, what he is, and rates
him accordingly.

at educating nurslings aud guild
ing childhood, the continue to
treat their children the same at all
ages; they steal away their power
of initiative. stitie their aspira-
tiOns. and by the very act of
clinging to a passing authority,
let perish a confidence which
might have been constant. Nor
is it enough to be resigned to see
ing the will and personal force of
our children establish themselves,
we should welcome with JOY all
the signs of budding character,
and, so far as it can possibly be
wise, give free play to the spirit
of independence and enterprise.
Do not hinder the mans being
formed in the child. To the some
what feminine education of ten
deTness aud solicitude, of vigi-
lance perhaps over anxious and
restrictive of liberty, let the virile
educator succeed, that education
which is to forge and temper the
forces of children, cultivates
their resistance and their com
bativeness and does not finch in
the face of their fatigues, their
trials, their difficulties, even their
danger.
1t is at this price that men of
mark are fashioned, one of whom
is worth a thousand lives of rou-
tine, mummitied and sheep like.
And to mould such character
with its,stamp of originality-the
sort of man whose need is felt on
all sides-nothing else equals
family life, especially when it is
simple and laboriOus. Here are
the normal conditions, the favor
able atmosphere, and no one be
allowed to interfere with the
rights and happiness of another.
There must be no drones in the
home if it is to be a perfectly
happy place and there must be
no inordinate selfishness. An
idle person and a selfish person
will disturb the peace of the whole
family. While there must be
loyalty and unity, there must
also be great freedom for the ex-
preston of personal tastes aud
respect for individual activity.
The life of the world is siren
uous, and the door of the home
should shut out the storm and
stress, but it should not shut out
new and wholesome inspiring in,
fuences. 1t should stand wide
in hospitable welcome to friends.
The home life that is narrow and
selfish is dull and enervating.
