How to Instruct Chiidren.

Teach the very little ones to always
say please" and Thank you" also
Good night and Good morning."
These are the first lessons in courtesy
at home. Every infant is born with a
conscience. with an instinct for God
and a desire for good We must begin
early and strive to catch hold of that
wonderful religious instinct which is
in every heart. If you wish to get a
child to do its best. encourage rather
than discourage him. Encouragement
acts ike a wet blanket and puts out
the fire of ambition mos eifectually in
the childish nature. Children ought to
be trained to be self helpful. to know
how to do for themselves. 1t is a mis-
take to think that they must he watch
ed every moment and have a nurse
stand over them from morning to
night. A healthy child Is the better
for being alone a portion Of each day.

lad Been Warmed,

A little girl had been to Sunday
school for the first time and had
been much interested in the lesson,
which had as its foundation the text
"Put your trust in the Lord and
place no trust in princes"
About a week later when she re-
turned from kindergarten she found
her mother busy helping the cook
prepare fruit to make jelly. She
sat down to watch-they were too
busy to let'her help-and presently
she heard her mother give an impa-
tient exclamation.
"What is it, mammal" she asked.
ooh, every one of these ounces is
bad at the core, and I'm verv much
disappointed, for | had counted on
them. | wanted to finish my jelly
today"

little girl. with her wisest little air.

The Moons Movements.

The moon is the nearest and, be-
ing the nearest, appears to US, with
the single exception of the sun, the
largest, although it is in reality one
of the smallest of the heavenly
bodies. Just as the earth goes round
the sun and the period of revolution
constitutes a year, so the noon goes
round the earth approximately in a
period of one month. But, while
we turn on our axis every twenty
four hours, thus causing the alter
nations of light and darkness, day
and night, the moon takes a month
to revolve on hers, SO hat she al
ways presents the same or very
nearly the same surface to us.

A SPELLING LESSON.
With . Wise Child's Comment About
the English Language.

1nS CHS'sh
The following illustration of a
child's spelling lesson and her apt
conclusion in regard to the orthog-
raphy of the English language is
taken from a New York publication:
Spell toes" said the mother,
who vas teaching her little daugh-
ter, seven years old, to spell.
""T-o-z-e." answered the child.
"No. dear. that's not right.
Toes spells toes
"But it sounds like t-o-z-e.'
81 know it, but you cannot 60 by
the sound
Then in order to enforce the
proposition the mother called upon
her daughter to spell froze.
"F-r-o-e-s," said the child.
"No. You're wrong again. This
time we do use the 81 and spell the
word f-r-o-z-e.'
"Huh!" exclaimed the child.
"Now spell rose" said the moth
er.
The child hesitated. Finally she
said, 81 don't know whether to say
r-o-z-e or r-o-e-s.'
"Spell it r-o-s-e,' said the moth
er, "though there is another word
pronounced just like it that's spell
ed r-o-e-s That word is the name
of the spawn Of fishes"
The child looked perplexed.
"Just one word MORE" said the
mother. "TelI me how you spell
blows"
"Well." said the little girl, who
had had quite enough nonsense, as
she viewed it, from her mother and
had suddenly made up her mind to
pay back in kind, 81 spell it three
ways. | spell it b-l-o-s-e for break
fast, b-l-o-c-s for dinner and
b-l-o-ze for supper"
81 spell it b-l-o-w-s," said the
mother.
The child was silent for a minute
as if wrapped in thought. Then,
looking up, she solemnly remarked,

language was made for persons very,
