wbv Children Tell untruths.

Because Il child tells an untruth he
is not of necessity liar. An apparent
untruth may be told because the child
is timid under examination and. losing
control Of himself, says what he does
not mean. Adults commonly do this In
courts. To the child questioning Is
often as much dreaded as the witness
chair is TO an adult. Other children
tell untruths because they are absent
minded. 1t Is common for them TO do
so, because they do not fully under
stand the question put to them. These
facts seem simple enough. and yet II
they are not recognized the child may
be falsely accused of lying. and his
nervous system will suffer thereby.
Romance weaving IS not uncommon
among children who are blest with
vivid lmaginations. The difficulty Is
that the child has not been taught to
make distinctions between the truths
Of allegory and those of fact The i'm
agination is valuable. but needs early
guidance. so that 1t will not be the
master, but the servant of the child.
The desire TO appear prominently be
fore others "a dramatic instinct is
often the cause OF romance weaving.
The best way to treat this latter is to
receive the statements of the child
without comment and without apparent
interest When he finds that he has
not an appreciatiye audience he will be
cured of this habit. In few instances
the fault indicates some impending Ill
ness. or it may be due to lack OF con-
troll, which is marked in nervous chill
dren after an acute illness. Parents
should show considerable patience to-
ward children who are apparent liars,
and every effort should be made to de
termlne whether there is a physical
basis for the moral fault.

Beehive Bombs.

A French genius has recently Of
fered an idea which he is confident
will be more effective against the en-
envy than bombs dropped by an avia-
tor. Instead of arming our aviators
with bombs, which are seldom eff
fective, we should do better with
beehives," says this patriot. Let
each aviator carry one or two hives
and launch them on the foe below.
At the rate of 10000 bees 10 the hive,
one may count that about 1000 will
be killed or stunned by the fall; but
the other $4,000 launched by a skill
full hand on the enemy will cover them
in an instant with innumerable stings
and put every combatant out of the
fight for several days Then our men
would have nothing to do but TO end
them or capture them" Commenting
on this proposal, which evidently is
made in all seriousness, witty
Frenchman says: The inventor does
not say what would happen IL mis-
directed hive should fall in a French
trench. If the bees were loyal they
would make the salute military and
buzz the 'Marseillaise.

Points

Mothers
Adnrnmenl and Care Of Nurser,

Adjournment and Care OF Nursery.
Children delight in change. and this
applies TO pictures as well as 10 other
things. II an expensive picture is in
the room and contagious disease af-
fects the child it is impractical 10 de
stroy the picture. and yet that may be
desirable. AS the child grows In knowl-
edge the pictures. If not expensive
may be changed TO suit the child's
need.
Boys like i pictures. When "A
little fellow ILLS his room with unde-
sirable pictures 1t is nearly always be-
cause others have not been obtainable.
They like pictures with life in them.
such as the Remington type, and their
choice should be followed in this.
Until the child Is OF such age that 1t
can be trusted alone portieres or heavy
curtains should be dispensed with. Al
best they are industrious dust collect
ors and are more OF "A menace than a
necessity. II they are used they should
be Of rather light material and so
placed that there is no possible danger
from fire. Hung near TO gas Jet. they
are constant source OF danger.
The rooms should be frequently and
thoroughly cleaned. and in this pro
cedure the child should be early taught
TO cooperate. All busting must be
done with a slightly dampened cloth
or with a lambs wool buster. both of
which will collect the dust and will not
simply scatter it.
Slightly wet salt or sawdust scatter
ed upon the floor before sweeping will
prevent 10 a great extent the raising
Of dust. One Of the various prepara-
lions which are made for this purpose
and which are very inexpensive Will
prove effective. and IN addition they

SOLDIERS MISS THEIR BATH
English "Tommies" and Their Officers
Alike Pine for the Accustomed
Additions.

Few of the discomforts of campaign
ing press more hardly on the eXpedi-
tionary force than the simple lack of
bath, in the opinion of London Coun-
try Life. At the front it is inevitable,
but no less a hardship. especially to
the British officer, with whom the
daily tub is almost a religion. We
ought to remember. however, that in
the huge temporary camps at home
where the new armies are being
trained the same discomfort reigns, be-
cause there is no time TO create insti-
tutes where the comfort OF the bath
may be enjoyed. In some cases people
who live near the camps are putting
notices at their gates which invite to
the hospitality of their bathrooms Off
GERS or men who come armed with
soap and towel This is more than a
kindly thought; it is a definite aid to
the health and fitness of the troops.
Cooks generally keep warm corner
in their hearts for his majesty's forces

steady fires going, so that the supply
Of hot water may be ample.

CITY PROVIDES BIRD HOUSES
Inducement for Feathered Songsters
to Make Seasons Home in
Cleveland.

The city of Cleveland proposes TO
encourage friendliness toward birds.
and no one will believe 1t instructed
effort. There is growing appreciation
everywhere OF the desirability, econo-
mic and sentimental, of bringing back
our native song birds in as large num-
bers as possible.
East Technical high school Is max
ing for the city forestry department
300 model bird houses, which will be
placed In various parks. Some OF
them already have been delivered. 1t
Is a fine piece of cooperation between
two branches OF municipal activity.
Forester Boldly has prepared list
OF fruit bearing trees, shrubs and
vines that furnish food for birds.
which will be help for those who
wish to put out bird houses about
their own premises. The time is at
hand when the native birds return
from the warmer climate, and will be
seeking nesting spots.
Il is all an excellent bit of city
government usefulness of which the
public will approve. 1t should result
in a widespread revival of interest in
the whole subject of bird conserva-
ton. lt may be considered to repre-
sent the same sentiment which de
mands Of the present legislature that

Horse Stands Over His Dead Rider.

]. Sutton, English lance corporal.
tells this story:
"One man OF the tn lancers I
found lying on his back with his eyes
staring at the skies. He was dead
without doubt. Standing over him
was his horse, without a wound. II
was looking into his face every few
minutes, and then neighing in a pitt
full way that sounded just like a hui
man being in an excess OF grief. To
hear that poor animal was enough to
bring tears to the eyes OF the most
hardened OF men"
Here is another incident related by
an English soldier:
Colonel - and I rode over the
awful vailly bridge at the rear OF his
regiment. The noise OF shell fire was
90 great that we could not hear each
other. He stopped, pulled out his re-
volver, got OF, and shot horse. Then
remounted. At other moments four
shells at a time struck that bridge
Yet while his act OF mercy was being
done not one came near It; ten sec
onds later II was white with shell
bursts"

When Tommy swore.

Here is a minor tragedy of the war,
but o very real one, says the. London
Mirror. Tommy had not tasted tea
for days; he was longing for tea with
an intensity which only comes upon
one IN a French village. He had Just
enough tea and sugar to make one
tinful but no hot water, and no
French with which to ask for 1t. With
wild gesticulation he sought to explain
to q woman his need. She took the
tin of tea and sugar and disappeared
into her cottage. Anon she emerged
triumphant. with the tin full OF cold
water and Tommy's whole stock OF tea
floating about In IT, Then IL was that
French came to him. He says he
