ARE YOU READY FOR YOUR CHILDREN ? “ Are the great majority of men and women ready for tlmir clni dren when these come to them?” asks Christine Terhtine Herrick in llie May Woman's Home (Vim-, pniiioii. “Would you commit to the care of the average parents an j important enterprise in which you were especially interested, and to which they had given no more study than they have to parent hood, secure that right feeling anil good will would insure an ul - 11 iinate happy result? “In spite of the apparent light- 5 heartedness with which the re sponsibility is usually assumed, it is not an easy thing to he a pa- 1 rent, to fill this profession into which men and women rush svith- I out a tithe of the thought and j preparation they would bestow 1 upon a calling of infinitely less importance. To take charge of the bodily welfare of a little child is no such trifling matter that a heedless girl with no knowledge of life forces, of hygiene, of dietet ics or of ordinary sanitation should assume it as lightly as she would the care of a new doll. More perilous > ven than this are tlie is sues involved in the drill of a child in habits of obedience by a woman without self-discipline, 111 self-control by a woman who does not know herself an infant in her jM-reeption of all that underlies life and death, mortality and im-j mortality" t Wavcross Herald: Descending! to dirtx personalities in a politic al campaign is very much out id' place and uncalled for. In fact. 1 descent public ought not to pause to hear a word of it. It is but the omen of a lost cause for the man who stoops to do it. and and he should l>e juissed upasn. g.
