THE CHILDREN'S HOUR.
AN OLD STORY.

1t is an old story, but it is a good
one. A father told his son that when
ever he did wrong he should drive a
nail into the door of the woodshed
The door began to fill up very fast
and a great many nails were being
used-heaps of them, in fact. The
boy did not like the, appearance of the
nail-studded door, and told his father
so. WELL" said the father, "now
every time you are obedient or speak
a kind word I'll draw one of the nails
OUT So it went on for some time till
at last the son, with a good, glad
heart, called his father to draw the
last nail. Out it came. ooh, Pm SO
glad, father" said the boy, and then
the pitted-looking door catching his
eye, he added, a little sadly: "But
the marks are there!" eyes," said his
father, "and SO it is with our evil
deeds-they leave marks that linger
long upon our characters and lives
We ought to try to escape not only
the wounds, but the scars that are left
The only way to do this is to avoid the
wounds"

plexions, and therefore unnecessary
to think about their health. That's
bad for the next generation" He's
right. Some country bellies would be
''rouged" or red enough if they used
a little more of Gods pure, free and
fresh air. If our young men went on
strike and simply refused to marry
painted bellies these feminine paint
ers would look for a more profitable
job. But some men, so it seems, are
quite fond of the painted faces, and
this may account for the fact that
some bellies paint. These might pos
sibly be excused; to say the least,
masculine severity seems little out
of place. Then, there are some bellies
with whom nature has been very un-
kind If mahogany and rosewood
need little Grub" to make them more
attractive and presentable, we surely
do not desecrate the lesser" woods
by covering their defects with paint
and varnish. In some cases, there
fore, little "rouging" and putting"
may not only be excusable-but-ad-
visable.
Stricter moralists may be Mortified
at this leniency, but they might know,
that lines which are drawn too tight
break.

"TABL ES."

You see, I'm learning "tables"-but
not the school room way,
Just mothers way of teaching. Why
fifty times day,
She's ask me, "Six times seven?" as
quick as any wink,
And I'm supposed to answer without
one chance to think?
Perhaps I'm drying dishes when my
mother says to me,
Florence, shine these tumblers, anG
what was eight times three?"
Or maybe I'll be busting, or teaching
Rusty tricks,
When mother calls and asks me
Now what was twelve times
Skip
At school the stupid figures seen
hard, and all the same,
But here at home with mother, they're
just kind of game!
It's fun to know the answers! l real
ly like to play
At learning all my tables" in
mothers funny way!
