how to regulate and increase the
income from his efforts. The
mother in management of house
hold affairs, practical economy,
government of children, and other
duties that makes her toll a labor
of love. Children's minds and
hearts are freed from thoughts of
questionable amusements and fri
volities of life, and encouraged to
emulate all that is helpful in plan
ing for useful future in life.
