PROBLEM FOR THE MOTHERS
Inconsistencies Always Detrimental to
the Proper Training Of the
Little Ones.

Many mothers find it difficult to
train child on certain points, and
often these difficulties arise from
the inconsistencies of the parents.
A child cannot be expected to be
perfectly truthful if the parents tell
falsehoods about little things, which
children notice quickly.
If you do not respect a child's
rights, you cannot be surprised if he
is inconsiderate of you in an at
tempt to look out for himself. If
you take something away from a
child which is rightfully his own,
saying 81 want it." he probably will
take away something from the baby,
saying, "But I want it." Do not
ever teach child that 'Fmight is
right"
If you are not polite to your child
you will have difficulty in teaching
him politeness to others. Efforts to
teach boy to beg pardon when he
bumps into anyone will prove fruit
less if you do not say pardon me-
when you bump into him. Most
children will feel it wrong that they
have to say 'thank you" for some
thing handed them when no one says
it to them.

FARnERS' UNION PICNIC.

Tuesday was day of celebra-
ton at Tip. About 800 people
gathered there to hear a Farmers
Union speaking and to partake of
big barbecued dinner prepared
by the good people of that neigh
borhood. The speaker of the day
failed to arrive but the dinner was
there in full force. State Secre-
tary-Treasurer, Ben L. Griffin
was present however, and made
quite an extensive address in be-
half of that grand order, the F. e.
& G. U. of A.
The people of Tip are famous
throughout this section for their
picnics and as time passes they
improve their reputation. Once
each season, the people of all the
surrounding country can look for
ward to hearty feast at Tip, and
they are never disappointed.

COINCIDENCE.

A lady one day remarked to the
English novelist, Bulwer Lytton,
how odd it was that dove (colom-
beg should have been sent out to find
the old world, and Columbus (Co-

Sir Henry Drummond Wolff says in
his recent book, Random Recollec-
tions," that Bulwer Lytton immedi-
ately replied:
