Mothers- no longer educate their children. In this abdication of a most gracions privilege, we see a complete surrender to Mammon and a passively-expressed contempt farthe Christian theory of existence.
If mothers believed that the object of life is the creation and development of character they would obviously-spare
no pains, indeed, it. would be their dearest delight to superintend most jealously the training of their children in nobleness of mind and pureness of spirit. But the creed to-day is base and sculless. We are educated to earn a salary or to get well. married. The end of the schoolroom is, for the boy, a post with a pension; and for the girl, a man with "blessings" character is the ac cident of education, not the definite objective, Why should a mother trouble about such CASE, WRITING DESKS, FRENCH | education as this?

Look into the nurseries of many of the very rich and you will seethat, instead of everything being done to draw out and develop the finer fibers of chameter, everything is done to hasten and almulate the grossest appetites of the body.

the secret of life, that a man's wealth consisted of the things which he can do without, and that to gain the whole world and to lose sweetness and gentleness of character is the exchange of madness? Listen to the talk of the nurses in the Park and you will shudder for the children of their charge. The dresses of their mistresses and the millions of their masters are the staple of all their silly talk.
To what manhood and what womanhood is it possible for these dreary children to grow?
Borne down by silks and satins, waited on hand
and foot by obsequious menials, encouraged in their imperiousness, flattered for their boredom, and petted in their tantrums, they arrive at the door of life sated and sulky, with no theory of existence, no knowledge of responsibility, and with no ideal.
