Blflshneg Being Taught to the XXeirs of , the Republic The home is now ordered for and wholly controlled by the children. The grown person receives no consideration among a houseful of children. Tho meals; the house, the Whole domestic routine, is ordered for the little folka. The training of Lycurgus couldn't prevent such children from being saltish,, exacting and inconsiderate. At home conceded everything, abroad they exact everything. Household rule 13 a tyranny of the small boy and small girl, tempered by weak indulgence. The result is seen in the schools, railway trains, in hotels wherever; the small person. has a chance to exhibit his spoiling. How can good manners be expected from children thus trained or untrained ? In college they are uninfluenced by the example of the prof essors, because their relations are purely perfunctory. The natural bent, taken in their tender years, comes out in harder egotism a more boorish lack of con1 sideration for others. It is a commonplace to say that to be gentle one must be born gentlej yet it is hardly the fact. In other days, when the home was not devoted! entirely to the pleasures and pastimes of the' young folks, good breeding was as ie now. In sogeneral as ciety where children take on all the airs and go through all the social functions in miniature of their elders, there seems to be no place for the corrections and refinements once thought part of very young people's training. The pi ess of the country is perpetually satirizing the public conduct of Americans in travel, in watering-place- s, in theaters and public places, and it ie I had another motive in asking ton to Abbotsville besides the hope of numbering you amongst inyj friends." ''Indeed, Sir Frederick "And not an unnatural one, as.l . think you will acknowledge. When 1 was abroad with my neice last month, we met' at Rouen your; nephew, Mr. Hamilton Shore." "You did? What did you think of him?" Not very well, begging your par don. He got up a clandestine correspondence with Carmen.who is extremely thoughtless and undisciplined, and I should never have heard anything about it, I suppose, unless I had happened to catch him, one evening, climbing up the posts of the veranda. I thought he was a thief, and was about to collar him as such when he told me his name and address, adding he was a nephew to Mr. Ruthven." "I hope you kicked him well." Sir Frederic smiled deprecatingly. "Kicking is not much in my line, Mr. Ruthven, but I examined the young fellow, and finding him to be a likely lad, and that Carmen had carried her flirtation rather far with him, I invited him to Abbotsville, always subject to your approval, that I might see something more of him before I made an extraordinary fact that the any decision, one way or the other." better ranks of the social system seem "You would not object, then, to his to be the most culpable.

So he resolved to further the plan of Master Hamilton's Wholesale and Retail visit to Abbotsville as much as lay in his power, and leave the result to its natural conclusion. When he answered Sir Frederic's question, it was to this effect: "To decide what sort of a husband a boy of nineteen will make is a difficult BEEF PORK matter; but Hamilton Shore has a long head when he chooses to make use of it, MUTTON VEAL and a keen eye to the main chance. I do not think from what I know of him ALSOthat he will make ducks and drakei of your niece's property; but as to the other matter, I should think she should judge for herself."
