LIES TOLD BY CHILDREN.
rimidity 10 One Cause, and Il Re-
quirss raetful Remedy.

quirss Taetful Remedy.
Some children lie because they want
to show of and brag, others because
they are too timid. 1t is clear that the
lies of two children differing in this
way must be treated by entirely differ
ent methods. For the vaunting lie 1t
is sufncient to defeat its purpose by
showing that the boast cannot be car
ried out.
A little girl was sent on an errand to
the store to get a loaf Of bread and
came back saying that there was no
more to be had. The mother, Of course,
knew that that could not be and soon
found out that the child had forgotten
what she was to get and was afraid Of
being ridiculed for forgetting. Here
the cause of the lie was timidity. In a
case of this kind a mother ought to
develop the self confidence Of the child.
Every normal child has instincts that
can be developed into habits Of truth
fulness. Even more important than
the right kind of treatment for un-
truthfulness, says the writer in the
Housekeeper, IL the necessity for an
atmosphere in which the spirit Of
truthfulness is all pervading.

Is to tap the imitation egg gently, SO

Now, the disobedient egg is an egg Of
