The Catholic Review has this severely ad-
monitory passage, which is quite appliesble
beyond the bounds of its own church. Some
parents would do well to take it to
heart:
Fool parents are a common species nowa-
days. The naturalist can easily locate their
residence and a.eertein their mental qualifi-
cations by stodyine the boys and girls who
rade omit avenues and

mks at night all nights of the year. The
ancient and honorable come= which kept
all children in the house after nightfall has
fallen into disuse through the numerical
increase of the fool -parent. The fatal char
•cteri.tic of this creature is Its blond oonfi
deuce in the virtue, gond lock and elation]
of its progeny. Other Forgets may lose
their boys and girh to lives of sin and
shame, tut the fool -parent is positive ao sin
or shame an touch its offspring. There

streets and parka until midnight, consort

start, with the devil's innumerable •gents,
finally to be seised body and sold and de
livered* to deetructicn The only fate 11a'
awaits the young night wanderer is the fat.
