little girl of the same age, and let her
listen to what you have to say on this
topic; but talk to them separately, in
order that they may feel how sacred the
subject Is, and that you are the only con-
fidantes they are to have in this matter.
Impress upon them the idea that the
plant needs to be carefully tended, and
gently used. or it will never carry out Its
mission; that the bud and blossom will
be blighted by careless handling, and the
fruit spoiled. Then make them under
stand that their bodies are plants, which
the great Creator intends for the same
process
Say to them, "All this knowledge about
tho flowers you will study and obtain
gradually as you grow older and your
mind developsS and in the same way you
will learn the wonderful, majestic truths
of the human family.
"All that you can know now is the
Bacredness Of your body and the need to
keep it clean, in good health, and pure.
IF any one ever approaches you to
talk on this subject in any rough man
ner. or to suggest your listening to any
information which your parents might
not hear. or if any one attempts any
familiarity toward you which you do not
understand. run away from such a per-
son as you would from a dangerous
animal.
Never say or do or listen to anything
you could not have all the world hear
Never take gifts or bonbons or flowers,
or toys, from any one you do not know;
never walk. into secluded places or vacant
houses with any one save your parents or
other relatives. 1t is an. evidence of q
lack of good bringing up to do such
things; and never permit any one 10 talk
to you on these subjects save your par
ents. As your mind unfolds we will ex-
plain all llfe's mysteries TO you"
Children who have been reared in this
wise and judicious manner will not be
victims to the monsters In human form
who so frequent pursue the innocent and
immature; and young boys who are so
tenderly instructed by considerable and
sensible parents win not develop abnor-
NAL tendencies or become a menace to
society.
Almost any child is In danger OF being
harmed mentally or physically through
ignorance. which is mistaken for inno-
cence by most parents. 1t is appalling
TO know OF the number of cases where
young, uniformed minds have been
smirched by evil communications, and
where even serious physical disasters
have befallen children through the lack
OF parental forethought and prevention.
1t is appalling to know how many young
boys have distorted minds through the
same cause; lack of parental instruction;
and the last people to know of the wrong
thoughts and actions of these boys are
the parents themselves. And even with
the strongest proof the parents often re-
fuse to believe the unpleasant facts when
they are confronted with them.
One schoolmaster in New Jersey was
almost driven from the community re-
