A woman has written to ne, want
ing to know what to do in the case of
her son. She says he won’t go to
school, he won’t do useful work and
tends generally to consort with disso
lute companions.
I may as well confer right now
that I cannot answer her question. I
know nil the argument, about lave
and kind treatment and psychological
study and patience and so on, and I
know also that there arc cases that
none of these things fit.
1 do not suppose there is one family
among my readers unable to confess
to some sore of black sheep; some
boy or girl that persists in going
wrong in spite of everything.
Much is said of preachers’ sons
who turn out badly **nd the implica
tion is that they have been treated
too strictly in their youth, so that in
later years they rebel.
Some say that children should be
carefully disciplined and rigidly in
structed, but such children have not
always done so well in later years.
In fact I have known the children
of utterly loose and careless parents
to turn out to be strict model* of
propriety, and others who have had
every advantage of favorable envi
ronment go swiftly to the dogs.
Some say that children should be
given their freedom and allowed to
do as they please, hut that does not
always work.
You may talk about your heredity
and about o child inheriting the bad
traits of his grand uncle and about
environment and about the whole
trouble with children being that they
are not properly disciplined. All this
is very interesting reading. But the
fact remains that the irresponsible
and wayward sheep is in almost every
family of my acquaintance.
Not long ago a prominent banker
showed me n letter he had from his
son, telling him that if he did not
receive some money immediately he
would commit suicide. The reply of
the hanker may not have been judici
ous, but it was interesting. He mid
to his son, “I have no money to send
you, but don't let that deter you.”

ono day when I was suffering, and
told me to try taking Black-
Draught, which I did.
“I took a package home that

relieved me. From that time on,
I would take Black-Draught as soon
as I felt like I was going tc have ono
of those headaches—and they
wouldn’t come or..

or four doses of Black-Draught, und
I feel so well, and do my work,
and don't lose any more time with
headache.
“I haven't had a headache in six
months.'*
