THE WISE AGE.

in the following:
Eat ten years of age a boy thinks
his father knows great deal.
"At fifteen he knows as much ~
his father;
"At twenty he knows twice as
"At thirty he is willing to take his
advice:
AT forty he begins to think his
father knew something after all;
AT fifty he begins to seek his ad-
vice;
"And at sixty. after his father is
dead, he thinks he was the smartest
man that ever lived"
The above correctly states the
stages through which one passes. Al
about eighteen or twenty the boy
feels stronger than he ever does after
wards and thinks he knows more
learns after awhile to respect the
wisdom of his father. especially when
he be,on,es a father. There is an
education in all Of the experiences
of life The parent educates the
chii;: aud the child In turn enlargea
the v..on OF the parent. Brothers
and sisters exert an influence upon
each ether. and another part of our
knowI ledge is gathered from rubbing
up sgains; the world.
II the child could only learn In
youth that years have given valuable
experience to the parent. the child
might be saved much costly folly,
but some children insist upon learn-
ing by experience. and they generally
get the experience. =
There is common saying that the
young man has to SOW his wild oats.
This Is complacent excuse given for
youthful indiscretions. but 1t does not
state the truth. 1t is not necessary
that boy should be bad in order to
be good afterwards. 1t is from every
standpoint better that his life shall
be SO regulated from the beginning
that the memory Is not stained by
scars and blots. II the confidence
which the boy has In his father at
ten continued until he was twenty
five,s he would not only escape the
habits that carry 80 many to ruin but
would be the stronger for life's work.
