Mrs. Harrison, who is boarding in
Washington, says she doubts that her
daughter ever seriously considered such
action, and believes reports to that eff

may have made while under great men

The strangest feature OF the limited
correspondence between mother and
daughter since the sensational charges
said to nave been made by Mrs. Eaton
became public property, is that only two
letters have been written by Mrs. Eaton
TO her mother n that neither Of these
contained any allusion to the belief. att

We are prone to underestimate the
powers and attainments Of children, and
parental authority is exercised TO the
extent sometimes that all individuality
is crushed out. OF course, the parents
are better fitted to guide and direct the
child than be lie TO dictate to them, or
to pursue bis course without training or
supervision. But the child should be
allowed to exercise his individuality and
follow Ills inclinations at all times 60 long
as be lie not doing wrong, A subjugated
child can not develop to the fullest the
powers OF ''the old school, use she rod
quite freely that they might not spoil the
child. But the great severity of disci-
pine that was brought 10 bear upon the
child in those days certainly did not tend
to bring out the best that was in him,
and our great men and noble women de.
yeloped from those children were great

OF his waye through his intellect, his con.
science and his love, we doubt very much
il bIsws would avail. i0f course il is often
necessary to restrict, rebuke and force a
child, but there are ways OF doing this
without crushing the spirit and killing
she seeds Of character that are forming to
mould a distinctive manhood or woman

There's divine spark Of good in the
soul Of the most perverse child. We can
reach il and b. ing it out il we try. And
she Creator meant childhood to bs all

no balm in Gilead; the little heart is
breaking aud cannot understand why it

happy. And so, how actually wrong 1t is
to dim the young life by the laintest
cloud Of sorrow.
We do not mean that the entire house

Neither should the child be adjusted to

life is bis own, and be has a right to live

OF course, all children must be taught,
