In homes of luxurious equipment a bath
room connects with each bed room; but with
a moderate establishment the washstand
and toilet set must be in evidence. The
white enameled washstapds are liked for
their sanitary surface and for doing away
with spread or cover. For many reasons
an open wood washstand Is better than the
closed in style and only a single shallow
drawer is required. so a plain table may be
adopted. In one home sewing table made

was that of taking an implanted kitchen

had one advantage over the washstand of
ordinary construction in giving an ample
place for holding the toilet set.

To make a child who has attained some
reasoning power comprehend the positive
blasphemy of lie, its contradiction of the
arrangement of things. its flat reversal or
attempt at reversal Of circumstances and
existence as IL the human hand had marked
out and turned back the divine hand; as
much reversal. perhaps, as il the sun had
been set to wheel the other way In the skies,
the tides to flow back in the seas. 1t Is when
one thinks of lying in these larger relations
that there comes to be a horror clinging to
a lie that makes the sensitive soul shrink
from it as from a sacrileae. For in this
light it is nothing other than a sacrilege,
and he who tells an actual lie has laid his
hands with violence upon the ark of the
covenant.
With a child with a tendency to untruth-
fulness there is always one course that can
be pursued and that Is never let the child
for a moment fancy that you suspect him
of the wrong dong or saying.
Unless it should be absolutely necessary.
for some reason better known to yourself,
that you should betray your knowledge,
keep it to yourself and maintain your
watchfulness but let the child hope that
you consider his standard of truthfulness
to be as high as any in the world.
You can do this without deceit or untruth-
fulness on your own part if you look to 1t
with care and are precise in your statement
as to what the child ought to be rather than
as to what he is.
Drill gives a reputation to live up to,
character to maintain. and the chld's pride
comes to the rescue. his sense of honor Is
cultivated to- the point of giving birth TO
truthfulness. and thenceforward noblesse
obIige until at last he seizes on the real
beauty and value of truth, upon which truth
itself obliges.
And on the contrary. If you would make
the little liar a big liar. and eternally liar.
then constantly confront him with the fact
that he is a liar already. He will have small
motive for telling the TRUTH since all the
world knows and believes that he Is a liar;
