Many Tasks Mothers Can Give little

There is a great deal in the way of
keeping peace in the familF generally.
and in the nursery particularly, il, let
ting children help.
A child is naturally busy. Watch the
little one just beginning to discover
that he has fingers aud toes tn 7 wig
gle and see how busy he keeps them.
Watch the creeping little one that
makes his nnnoticed way 10 a cherish
ed and neat workbasket and see how
spools, pincushions and an the useful
articles fly as he throws them as far
as his chubby arms can not. as many
think. from a purely miscIievous sDir-
it. but simply because he wants to be-
busy.
Supply q child with something. any
thing it can do. and it viii be happy.
Set it down with an injunction to "sit
still and behave. aud watch the wrig-
Cling little figure and hopeless coun-
tenapce. There can be nothing more
barbarous THAN TO Insist upon absolute
quiet FROM a baby.
And there are SO many small things
a mother can give her little ones to
do They can lift chair and place 1t
on the other side of the room; they
can carry small rug out on the
porch, make believe to shake it and,
If provided with tiny broom. make
still more earnest belief to sweep IT.
How happy and self satisfied is the
small girl that Is helping mother!''
Unless one has thought out the mat

quick little child Is to learn. Here,
truly, we may almost believe In the
descent from Simian ancestry-that is.
If we have ever watched monkey

was the proud mistress of darling
little -Jocko, who, when detected in
one of his thousands of impish tricks.
would place one tiny paw upon his

like a monkey Keep it busy and keep
it out of mischief. Let it find things
to do itself. and it viii be sure to
find something that will create havoc.

be snarls, and the cord may be lost

WHAT is DuTYa

Philosophers have seemed to
assume that we knew what duty
was. They have discussed the
question whence came the idea
of duty, and SO on. which is very
interesting in its way. but they
have overlooked the main point,
which is. What is duty? Now,
that is just what we don't under
stand today We don't know
what our duty is. If we did
more of US would try TO do it,
believe-not all Of us and not
always, but in general we would
try to Go right if we knew what
right was. 1t was Guizot,
think, who said, 1T is harder for
a man to know what his duty
is than to do ii" All the mod
ern philosophers have built up
incomplete systems of ethics be-
cause they have overlooked this
fundamental point We have to
go back to the ancient Greeks
before we find problems of ethics
attacked in their entirety The
Greeks did have in their way
complete system Of ethics, but
this is of no advantage to us. be
cause their social world and their
outlook on life We're entirely diff
ferent from ours. Their civiliza-
ton did not present the problems
we have to consider. They had
no conception of duty toward
other nations. for one thing.
Their own state was all they
recognized. and even within that
their view was limited. Henri

Philosopher

Lies In Seeds, So Keep Yours Clean
and Well Graded
OF all things chat farmer should
do and of all things that he usual
~ does not do until the day before
seeding commences, If he does It at
all, Is the cleaning and grading Of his
seed grain, says the Iowa Homestead.
Putting it off is easier than doing It,
so d great many OF us put 1t OF, espe-
cially where we own no mill Of our
own. We do not realize that it would
be a good investment for US to. buy one
and Go not feel like asking neighbor
for the loan or use of his mill
But cleaning and grading seed grain
do pay. 1t would pay dollars fer
every hour spent at the actual labor OF
usirg the mill, besides 81 an nour for
the use Of the mill. This may seem
like setting it pretty high, but think
little Take into consideration the
fact that small, wrinkled shriyeled
kernel Of grain produces. If 1t produces
anything, only n small weakly, spin
ding plant. This plant may live through
the season and produce its like Or it
may die early In life and be replaced
by weeds or grass. In any case we
should be having strong hearty
healthy plant growing where the sick
", spindling specimen grows, and the
only way to be sure Of 1T is to grade
the seed we sow-to take out the small,
shriyeled kernels ana SOW only the
plump, heavy ones.
Almost any one is ready to admit that
we grow too many weeds now without
deliberately sowing more seed Of such
pests with our small grain, but we &C.
tually and deliberately do sow weed
seed that we would like mighty well
to get rid of when we SOW grain just
as the thrasher cleaned It. A little
cleaning with good mill always sur
prises one by taking a lot Of weed and
bad grass seed out-of what we think
is very clean grain, while grain that
we admit Is too Ndirty to sow seems
simply to dissolve itself into half weed
