GOOD AND BAD MOTHERS.

The difference between good and
lad mothers Is so vast and 80 far
reaching that 1t Is no cxaggeration
TO say that the good mothers Of this
generation are building the homes
OF the next generation, and the bad
mothers are building the prisons.
For out Of families nations are made;
and II the father be the head and
the hands OF the family, the mother
Is the heart. No office in the world
is 50 honorable as hers, no priest
hood SO holy, no influence 80 sweet
and strong and lasting Unsefsh Low
is the mother. Cheerful obedience
In the children. In whatever home
these forces are constantly operatives,
that home cannot be failure. And
mother-love is not of the right kind
ior Of the highest trend, unless Il
compells this obedience The assertion
that affectionate firmness and even
wholesome chastisement Is unnecessar
With our advanced civilization, Is n
specious and dangerous. The children
of today have as many rudimentary
vices as they had in the days CT
the patriachs; as a general thing
they are self-willed and inclined 10
evil from their cradles; greedy with
out a blush, and ready to lie as soon
as they discover the use of language,
A good mother does not shut her
eyes to these facts; she accepts her
chidl as imperfect, and trains Il with
never-ceasing love and care for IA
highest duties. She does not call I'M
rertinence "smartness,g nor Insub-
ordination high spirit" nor SELFISH
ness Knowing how TO take care Of
ITSELF nor lying and dishonesty char
ness.

Parents often say, Il live for

than that-they should live with
their children, letting their boys and
girls feel that their interests are
their parents interests also. In no
other way can fathers and mothers
keep firm hold on the young lives.
Let the children have their pleas

neat, and to some extent orderly,
and then let them have all the fun
