PHENOMENA OF HABIT.
The Importance Of Correct Training
For Y0unR Children.


The most important years, the years
that give the trend of life, are the
early ones, when the little dimpled
hands are outstretched, when the baby
soul is reaching forth and receiving
ideas and Impressions. when manners
are formed and habits have their be-
ginnings. To leave the babies to ir-
responsible hired hands and lavish
care and expense on half grown chill
dren Is the blunder Of those who are
ignorant or inexperienced as to vital
issues.
President King of Oberlin college. in
his admirable treatise on "Rationa,
Living" has this to say to young peo-
pie, and l commend it to mothers:
Nowhere are the psychical and
physical SO completely interviewer as

initiative constantly comes in, but it is
as constantly seconded by the nervous
system. The time limit in habits is
one OF the strong evidences of the close
connection of body and mind. 1t is a
startling fact to face that a mans per-
sonal habits are largely fixed before
he Is twenty, the chief lines of his fu-
ture growth and acquaintance before
ne is twenty-five and his professional
habits before he is thirty. We are
becoming bundles Of habits. With
