And ne'er to one thing could bo holden.
Such a lump of fun as eyes never met,
Aud the wi.ol ) went by name of grand
pa's pet.
lie's up in the morning when Caylight

And everyone know-; all about it ;
Ihe U .y b.-fii-i-just when I: ger awakes,
And non ,;ie so tuir-Jy us uoubt it.
Aa aulo( 1.11 ho, whoe wioh must be

All must bow to the reign tf grandpa's

A- 1 pussy must bend in submi-sion.
He cannot mi wrong he never did yet
" ny, the whole world was made just for
gia i Spa's pet.
. ho:t he makes a crow's ne-t of grand

Then the old mania ready to kiss him.
Ho draws his snuffbox about for a g g.
And the worst word that's stiid is God
ble-s him.
All clocka in the house to his time is
Set,
.Veil, there's nobody there but grandpa's
pet.
"What a pity we cannot be always young,
An 1 rule like a king in his glory ;
What pity that Time with his lron"tongua
Must change the sweet tune of lile'a

Alas! that we lose in flurry and Tret
The dream of the time we were grand

proves that form of panhshment to be

In ..ny ot!i i' method of punishing a

Too much punishment is as dangerous
as too little. It is when one has a
glimmer of t his idea that he quotes the
proverb, " spare the rod." etc.. to fortlfy
iiiuise f, when the proverb would l-j
letter forgotten "creat rewiids be
t d.ou a fa iieti -tato." The same is true
of much pun'-hmcnt.
Tii oi je". of nil punishment is, of
course, to improve n child, to trim oft',
or cuodu its faults of character as thev
appeiir, and giv 11 better chance fiT all
tin- good qualities to develop. Then
are ways of ; iinishiiig b. sides whipping
tniit will defeat this end. and the wm le
subject is a matter to be gravely con
Si eted by parents of young children.
Ii is a common practice to ilepiiven
child of some .m'iciinte i plea-ure be
cause o: a disol ediciice. The effect of
such a punishment depends upon theclr
cumstttnees. Suppo-e, for instance, a bi y has a
prumi.so that he shall go to a certain
ci:cus that is coming in a few day-, i- ,t
an oeeasion arist s in whh h -ome sit -f
ci-ciplln.; mu-t bo resorted to. and h.
is to.d h cannot go to the circus.
In siic.i a ca.-e all the antagonism f
the boy's n .ture is aroused, lie (a.u s "
no justice in the ptm..- hn.ei.t. He sub-mil-
l eetiu o he is old ged to and the
only r.-lu-f he has i- :i .hating he author
ity over him, a: d no doubt fe-ds a con
tempt for u tinie, for on.- that can give a
promise and then tak it back. All the
matters in relation to the coming .f ih -circus,
his mates alt going, ami every- ;
thing in connection with it will contiti- '
ually keep his angry feel. tigs uppermost
aud he will all the' time feel the Injus
tice of the broken promise instead o:
repentance I t Lis. mi-deed. '
Now if, instead, he had b"en told that
Le could not go out of the yard again for
any p:. asure, except the circus, for a
week, nor have any boys in his own yard
to j lay with him during that time, but
must amuse himself as l est he could
alone in consequence of his wrong do
ing, he would many times during tn '
Week wish he had beuaved himself prop- 1
Cll.- and would not have .ha. hateful !
feeling arou- d towards his parents. '
He W: ul I not be made unhappy bv Lis
puni-hment ; he would have a" chance
to think 01 Ihe matter fairlv and w tihl
liot feel abused ami outraged however
in-te. n: orlab.e the re-tii.tion became.
Insbaq ot icling angry at it he would
wi.-h he nad nol done wrong. A child
neons all the .,nshino it can have to L)
li te i for ti.o storms that e. mo in after
lif", and if 1:1 any doubt w hether a pun
ishment, in certain cases, is re.tlly a ne-p-!3cpy

benefit of the doubt.

"AVell, you had better go down and

" L'-t her come up, then," eays James,
Ill-naturedly.
" My goodness, no !" returns his wife;
she'd suck the baby s breath."
Then James paddl- s dow n stairs again
and steps on a tack, and clo-e-. the stair

Just as he begins to climb into his
