HOUSEHOLD TOPICS
Crvinn Hahit.

Crying Habit.
There is nothing that is more dis
tressing to most people than a child
who has the crying habit. The child
cries and screams for everything that
Il wishes and cries for every little
thing that annoys him. II shows lack
of discipline and the habit should be
corrected before it gets a firm hold on
the child The child knows that If he
cries for a thing long enough It will
be given him no matter how many
times il has been forbidden him, and.
knowing this. he naturally cries every
time things do not suit him.
If the habit is broken as soon as IL
is noticed. it will be an easy task
but when the habit has been allowed
to become deep seated it requires timo
and patience to break it, The cure
used must depend on the age of the
child but it is usually safe TO put tho
child in a room by itself until 1t stops
crying A few days of this treatment
will usually break the habit. foe even
a young child can realize thai there
is no use TO cry If no one pays any at
tention. Il is hard for most mothers
to hear their children cry without doing
20 quiet them. but II the moth
er will steel her heart against II for
few days she usually will find that
the crying spells are growing farther
apart.
