the Eskimos were obliged to devote their
time to the making of fresh garments.
The explorer and his companions pos
sessed no thread with which to sew skins
together and therefore unraveled their
stockings and used the wool for thread.

Furnishing the Child.

VA factor is OF more Importance In
n N the bringing up OF child thnu the
D method OF punishment employed
Every child differs In nature at some
particular point In character. This pre-
cludes the possibility of set code OF
regulations for Furnishing children. and
makes II necessary for encb mother to
decide the individual case from what she
know1 OF the character OF her own
child. All should observe, however. one
dxed rule, aud that is-never punish
when reasoning will bring about tho same
results. Needless correction blunts the
sensitiveness of every child and creates
n hardness of character That no mother
wishes her child to possess.
On general principles It is better to
try reasoning before furnishing. II the
child commits the same offcnse n second
time after being reasoned with, then pun
ishment should be rosorted to. The pun
ishmcnt OF other days-tbc hnrd brutal
slap and similar tblngs-aro gone. There
are many ways to make a child under
stand he or she has done wrong. and
the principal method Is to deprive him
OF her, of somo anticipated pleasure.
ouch as tho attending OF n circus,
church socloblc or at this season of the
year. no greater hardship or punishment
could dcvolvc upon a boy than the refusal
to allow him TO Join the baseball gang
