waxed as fierce in their utterances aud

It is even worse when the subject Is one

The number of such topics of dispute is
legion and the mother of the family feels
sick qualm at the threatened approach
of any one of them. especially at the
breakfast table.
Ono of the points never satisfactorily
settled In my mind Is why certain mem
bers of society should consider 1t an ex-
cuse for any display of bad temper that
1t occurred at the breakfast table. am

many persons early in the morning. Tho
mother who has been kept awake with a
sick child the man who has worked over
his books until the small hours or who
has tossed on an uneasy couch wrestling
with business problems may have a GER

demeanor at the first meal of the day
although even these sufferers might re-
fleet that some consideration is due those
with whom their lot Is cast and who are
not to blame for untoward conditions.
Still, II gravity and dislnclination to
talk were confined to those who can
present a valid cause for these feelings
one could bear 1t better. But how about
those who have no such apology for their
behavior? How about the husky coll
lego boy, the healthy young woman who
can make no excuse except :" always
have a crouch at tho breakfast table or
"I hate to talk as soon as ] am out Of
bed" Both these are offered as ample
reasons for any disagreeableness which
is manifested at the morning meal.
For my own part l consider 1t one of
the most important parts of mothers

~ BREAKFAST is dreadful meal

Half the family come down
with a crouch and, the rest

day for heated discussion of all the
things they disagree on. When have

ueyed that the chief reason we kept on
such good terms was that we never
breakfasted together. You know how

I confess have known families in which
mealtimes seemed to serve as a clearing
house for topics of dispute and disagree
ment, but have always hoped that these
were the exception and not the rule.
To my own mind there are great advan-
tages In the general conversation which
should form an adjunct to home repasts
Some of the most delightful memories of
my life are coupled with mealtimes and

So do In way and within limits. But
this does not mean that, in the colloquial
phrase, they are not to open their mouths
except to put In their food, any more than
the other custom l commend implies that
they should absorb the conversation or
even take a lions share of it.
IT lis easy for child to be taught when
the rule of /" seen and not heard " should
be adhered to, and when departed from.
He will readily learn that his own chat

sumably, wish to put in a few remarks on
their own account now and then Like
wise, he should discover after few les
sons that pert comments on the aforesaid
remarks are not desired from him. even
while he is encouraged to put int lldgent
questions. to ask information on any spe-

accounts Of his own pul-suits--so long as
