Parental Duty Too Poorly Gone.

Pre-natally. we make child
rem feel that they are unwel-
come. They are born shy,
timid, fearful of cuffs, blows
and ill-treatment. They
shrink in a measure from the
love Or touch of their parents,
and are never at ease till
away from home influences.
As babies, they are taught
to lie, cheat, dissemble. de-
velope -sel6shness and to
struggle only for pence and
Plantations. They see their
parents deceitful and always
double.dealing with them.
They are educated to deceit,
and togo outside of blood re-
lationship for -confdents and
advice. They see their
parents nagging each other,
quarrelling, scolding each
other, pickering, back-biting,
and the next moment praising,
aattering and kissing, each
other. Thus the mind of the
child is kept in-a tremor of
doubt, disgust and distur-
bance.
It is educated to hide dirt
behind doors, under chairs
and in dark corners, and con-
ceal it's little acts 'of mean
ness rather than weed them
out of it's life. It hears the
parents speaking i'll, meanly,
ugly of neighbors. then well
coming them with smiles,
kisses and compliments.
Thus the child is educated to
develope a double.
On entering the field that
is just beyond the garden of
maturity, so to speak. the
young man is taught business.
That's, to lie, cheat, dissemble
and deceive. To make Gus
toners drunk and then do for
them. He is taught that all
ways to get money are alike
honorable. To be sure he
has different teachers, who
teach different methods to
reach the one great object,
but they all land the student
in the same rut. He is taught
to be sharp. To forget hon
or and mans duty to all other
men. To hate dislike or dis
trust all who are not of his
set, sect or society, when in
truth there are as good men,
as pure women and as lovely
children in other sets and
sects as in our own.
Our duty to God is per-
formed only when we proper
ly care for, assistant educate
all who are born from human
ity; to care for Gods jewels
and see that we do not set
them in mud, flth, sin, misery
degradation and wickedness.
To carefully surround our
little ones, our loved ones,
with influences and environ
ments that will encourage
them to the good and protect
them from the bad. It is our
duty to prohibit, by all means

loves. It is equally natural
that a man should be careful
to keep his shortcomings
from the girl heis DESTROYS OF

full of her comfort, spends all

will not see that she has any
faults that his relatives point
out to him, and is not exact

amount of affectiun bestowed
upon himself. The engaged
girl is a person of Importance,
petted by her friends and in
dulged by her family. Her
plans and wishes often have
the first consideration. Lit
tie is required of her and
much is yielded to her.
Finally, after nothing but
consideration for herself the
wedding day comes, and with
it a gradual change in the OF :
der of things. The husband
| is fond of his wife as the lover
was of his bethrothed, but
she is his, and he is no longer
anxious. He has duties and
social obligations perhaps
rather neglected during his
courtship, which must be at.

his affection so much and is
more exacting; while the wife
hitherto petted in her own
home and her lovers one
thought, imagines him
changed and inattentive. No
longer seeing him through
rose-colored 7spectacles she
sees his failings and betrays
her own. This beginning,
without any serious fault on
either side, is often quite suf-
ficient to lay the foundation
of a thoroughly unhappy life.
Graduating Girls.
Some of us, at any rate, on
both sides of the Atlantic,
have begun to realize that
serious study is less likely to
injure women than pinched
waists, late hours, hot rooms
and unwholesome food, and
we think it is better for our
girls to be graduated at
schools for science rather
than at schools for scandal.
We think it will better pre-
pare them for the grave re-
responsibilities of matrimony
and motherhood than rapid
life in which personal adorn-
ment is their chief aim, and
how to kill time and secure a
rich husband their principal
anxiety. The mental com.
partnership which is improv-
ing is communion between
active minds, and the women
of a mans household must be
either a stimulus to his high
est aspirations or a drag up
on them. For the interests,
therefore, of men, and of
human Improvement in it's
widest sense, there should be
a purpose in the education of
women quite apart from ques.
tions of what they are to
learn, and preparation for SO
wide a sphere of domestic or
social duty admits of no such
low standard as that of Gus

ask that women should have
greater influence than they
now possess. We only ask
that they be trained to make
the best possible use of it.
This will make marrisge more
