SOME MISTAKES IN TRAINING
CHILDREN.
Very few adults realize how sensi-1
tive children are, and what little'
things often cause them unimagined
suffering. As a result they are con -4 t
stantly snaking serious mistakes in • .
dealing with them, I know a mother; 1
who says the only way she can make
her child really feel his punishment; t
is by humiliating him just as much as;
possible before company by recount-;
ing his faults, and telling him what a
bad boy he is!
Now, this is the worst possible
method of dealing with any child. It
will not cure him of his faults, but
will only make him sullen and un-
happy, or more rebellious.
It is a great mistake to try to dis-
cipline a boy or girl by calling atten-, 1
tion to his bad manners at the table'
or elsewhere; or to punish him when!
strangers or guests are present. Such.
treatment is intensely humiliating to
a child, and makes a lasting impres.`
sion on the youthful mind. Many par -j,
ents and teachers have so mortified, r
and discouraged children by such in-
judicious punishment that tragic re-;
sults have frequently fenuwed ewe:
cially
r--
cially in the case of nervous or over
sensitive boys and g!r!e.
To do the thing that is best for the;
Child we must know his nature, and.
realize that he is not an adult 'n
brain, expera ace, or heart. He has,
not an adult's judgment. We are all`
apt to forget that children, even Int
their teens, have not devclop'd thein
moral or reasoning facuaiee to aryl
great extent. Their judgment and
levelheadedness are weak. They have!
not had sufficient experience to fail;
ball: upon to heap them in reasoning,
and it is surprising what little things;
often discourage theta -rid make their;
whole world look Wad: and forbid -1
ding, With their, the present le Ivey-,
thing, and when their an is tat nedl
for a moment they can see seehing
but bincknees in else f t rr'.
Many parents have a mi'etaken idea
that they must be start: with thcirl
children, that they must suppreesj
them, or they will become unmanag-
able. They do not realize that stern-
ness and suppreseior simply mean

across an article which told of the
deadly poison contained in the bulbs
of the common daffodil.
The article contained a warning
note which I want to pass. on. • It said,
hat in a number of cases, where pec-;
pia had eaten daffodil blubs, mistak-,
ng them for onions, they had been:
poisoned. Not only was the action of
he poison amazingly speedy, but it
was necessary to consume but a very I
small portion of the bulb in order to,
become poisoned.
Tests showed that, when given in
small quantities to cats, the bulbs pro-;
duced vomiting, salivation and purge-,
tion. When •administered to warren.
blooded animals, they acted as an:
emetic --eventually causing collapse
and death by paralysis of the central
nervous system.
Generally, the thrifty housewife,.
after the plant has ceased to bloom,:
stores away the bulbs for the next
season. Not infrequently; the place
where she puts them is e.ose by the
store -room for her potatoes and on
ons, usually a dark spot, It can be
readily understood how an unobserv-
ant person could unwittingly substi-
tute the bulb of a daffodil for an
onion, there being such a striking out-
ward resemblance between the two. If
you store bulbs near the onions, be
very careful.

Castle Burned In 1826.
The ancient castle, whish came to
IAscelles on the death, of his uncle,
was erected In 1588 by the Earl of
Clanricarde at a tremendous cost. In

The castle, set in the green acres of

when it is rebuilt, be a fitting home
for a princess. Acres and acresof
emerald meadows stretch away from
its enclosure and in the distance can
be seen the winding river tranquilly
making its way through the peaceful
Country. The little town of Portum-
ma, where the castle- is situated, Is a
very ancient and historic one. It lies
on the Galway side of the Shannon
