Suno p'.'i'plo 8?ora to think that
children have in chu.'actor at ull. Oa
tho ('ontrary, any observing eye sues
in these youii crcautres the signs of
what they are likely lo be for 1 1 lo.
Wheu I soo a boy In hu-.to to spcnl
every penny as soon as lie gets it, l
think it u sign that he will be a spend
thrift.
When I soo a boy boarding up his
pouuios anl uuwiliiug t part with
them for any gaol purpqm, I think ii
a sign that ho will bo a miser.
When I see n b y or girl always
looking out for him or hersilf, and dis
liking tosharo good things Willi lb
era, I thiu'i it a sigi that ths child
will grow up a sillisli person.
When 1 soe biys and girls of tea
quarreling, I tbiuk it a sigu that they
will bo violunt men aud wgtinn.
When I see a little boy willing to
tasto strong diluk, I think it a sign
that he will be a drunkard.
When I see a boy who never alien la
to religion, I think it a sin that ho
will be u profane an l profligalo min.
Wbeo I seo a child obedient to his
