Praise the work of your children, no
matter how trivial the act. 1t will give
them an honest desire to do better the
next time.
! Brother, when you come in from work
in the evening, we all know that you are
tired, but put on your bes, look and as
sumo happy mood DO not frown if
the floor is not swept and the supper is
not ready Engage the little folks Just
| little while and get them to looking for
ward to your coming with pleasure. 1t
will help to make home happy in a great
many ways.
A girl who is gentle. brave and spir-
tied; who is unselfish, high-minded and
intelligent; who has both sweetness and
depth of character; who does not always
think of herself, but works for the hap
piness of others; who is merry and
wholesome as a girl should be, will
never lack either lovers or friends. She
is the light of the home, a good friend
to her brothers and sisters, and the sun
shine OF the old folks. God bless her.
The first question that a man asks
when he sees a girl flirting is whether
she is respectable or not. 1t raises a
doubt at once This being the case no
modest girl can afford to indulge in the
pastime. When the down is brushed
from peach its beauty is marred so
that it can never be restored, and when
young girl throws lightly aside that
sweet and modest reserve so becoming
10 maiden, and which so elevates her
and enables her to command the respect
of all, she loses the great charm and
becomes rather cheap and common. to
use no rash telms. Flirting may seem to
the giddy and thoughtless sIrl as won
derfully amusing and she may get the
idea that she is fascinating, but it is a
most degrading thing and she should be
irowned upon by every young lady who
has an ambition to become worthy and
charming young woman,
People who make mistakes are those
who quarrel with one another before
their children; or who allow the latter to
grow up in idleneSS; those who talk
father who tells his children to go the
way that he does not go himself, and the
young woman who does no make a con-
fidane of her mother.

RULES ADOPTED BY a WISE GIRL.
AS she was passing the other after
noon, in getting something out of her
pocket young woman dropped a slip
OF paper on the ground. One saw it and
picked it up, intending perhaps to return
it, but glance AT the clean cut, angular
hand writing induced him to read it
