and many a proud mother is heard
declaring her daughter of seventeen
was as innocent as babe unborn

But such innocence is criminal on
the part of the parent.
Besides, 1t is seldom true.
The mother is deceived.
Few children go through one pri-
mary term in public school and re-
main ignorant of these subjects. But
their knowledge is gained from low
sources usually, and their minds are
tarnished by having to receive the in
struction in a vulgar or unwholesome
manner.
1t is the mothers place to talk to
her children and to tell them just as
many of life's great truths as their
young minds can assimilate, and then
to impress upon them the dignity and
good form of silence on these subjects.

about with a mantle of purity and
protection which no rude hand can
