boys who were eager to learn and ready
TO mind. Don't puff your boys up with
his own Importance if you wish him
to be anybody. Parents are often to
blame for the failure and disgrace of their
children.
Never condemn your neighbor un-
heard, however many the accusations
which may be preferred against him.
Every story has two ways of being told.
and justice requires that you should hear
the defence as well as the accusation.
Remember that the malignity of enc
mics may place you in similar predica-
ment.
The girl who is made conscious that
her own gowns are particularly better
or poorer than those of her schoomates,
and who is elated or depressed in conse.
quence, is growing up with false stand
ards of life, and Cultivating the elements
of pettiness and unhapplneSs. The boy
who Judges and allows himself to be
judged by the test of clothing, pocket
money, the ability to command material
pleasures or indulgences. is developing
the very elements to render him over
reaching, overbearing. and perhaps,
even dishonest, when he goes out into
life for himself
Is there Sunshine in our souls?" Are
the shutters closed? Then open them
wide. Let the light of Gods love fash
forth upon the drear night of the worlds

There is nothing more disgusting to a
true gentleman than to see girl flirting
with every man or boy that she sees on
the streets and other public places in the
city. Do not do it, young lady, unless
you would have a low estimate placed
upon your worth. You may be as pure

but do not flirt with any one. You are
far better off without the potice or atten-
ton of those attracted to you by such
