WHY CHILDREN Are pEcEPTlVE.
Fear Of Punishment Frequently Leads
TO Untruthfulness.

Untruthfulness in children some
times arises through the fault of their
elders, who suggest to them untruths,
which children indorse from an innate
sense OF pollteness and a wish to be
agreeable. Don't you like so and soP'
says the elder, and the child agrees.
Isn't this pretty?" comes later on. and
the child partly believes that 1t Is
pretty since the suggestion has been
made, the child's idea regarding the
article In question would have been
that 1t was extremely ugly. A yet
more fruitful source OF untruthfulness
lies in the fear of punishment and
this Is particularly the case with chill
dren Of delicate body or OF nervous
temperament. Children who are gov
erned by love rather than by fear es-
cape this temptation to lie, but when
child feels that punishment for a
fault or falling is inevitable, 1t seems
such q little thing to cover the frailty
with a lie, and yet the child who lacks
the moral courage to ayow fault suf-
fera untold agonies of remorse for
every lapse from truth. Let children
be encouraged to own their faults, and
even the most nervous can be made to
do 1t, II sure that the confession takes
away the punishment, or reduces 1t to
such an extent that no bodily suffer
ing is ntailed.-Illustrated Sunday
Magazine.

1T IS A FACT
buffalo. N. Y, Times)

In view OF the general belief In the
instability of chronic Bright's
Disease and Diabetes, we were asked
to send a representative to interview
three parties in this city, two of
whom have recovered and the third is
getting well.
A member of our stat went to one of
the parties on Jefferson street to In
vestigate He is a business man, He
gave the reporters the following facts:
lie had friend who was so far gone
with Diabetes that he could hardly
move. Later he was astonished to see
him back again Mt his employment.
Meanwhile his wife developed the
same disease. Later she was again
about her daily occupations.
The business man in question was
intensely interested, as he was a
great sufferer himself from Diabetes.
He learned how their recoveries had
been effected, and procured the treat
ment for himself, with the result that
he has resumed the personal care oil
his business.
IL so happens that the member OF
the Times stan who verified these
facts also knows of another case IN
this city that is yielding to the same
treatment That chronic Brights
Disease and Diabetes, deemed fatal
the world over, are now durable Is be
ing established here is well as In Cali
fornia.-Buffalo Times.

FINISHED SERMON FOR HUBBY.
Wife's Readiness and Eloquence That
Was Altogether Unappreciated.

Speaking of wives duties" said the
Manayunk philosopher, II once at
tended service at Unitarian church
in Brooklyn when the pastors voice
went back on him. Went back alto
gether, II did. He stood there before
US in the pulpit silently opening and
shutting his mouth like fish.
His wife came quickly from her
pew, and mounting into the pulpit, she
waved her husband aside. took up the
sermon where he had left off, finished
It eloquently and afterward brought
the morning service to conclusion
with prayer"
How very helpful that was" said a
listener.
yet the husband didn't think so, -
said the philosopher. He called it Of
fcious, was quite angry. said his wife
had been trying to show off.
THE question is" the philosopher
concluded, can a wife in her helpful
zeal go too far?"
