Courtesy to Children. Some Wise persons suggest as a sove- reign rerizedy for the uncomfortableness of what five are wont to call the awk- ward age of boys and girls -that time when they are too large to feel like- chil-- dren, and are not quite sure enough themselSes to feel like adults -that we should always treat the smallest chil- d.ren with the courtesy and. considera- tion that we show to grown up people; andethen they will never feel at a. loss as to their reception, thus quite escap- i-ng • the uncertain and uncomfortable "awkward age." There are few things more important in the right develop- ment of a human creature than self-re- spect. But how is child to learn howl to respect itself, if it sees it is alone in the sentiment ?-that by no one else it is respected? More harm is, perhaps, done children by snubbing them than even by weak indulgence. We have seen. homes where the slightest expres- sion of a child:'s idea on anypoint under discussion Was greeted With, "Who ask- ed you -what you thought ?" 1 or with sar- casm{ such as, "Ali, now we shall have the matter settled ; Mies Experience is freeing her It is so difficult to hit the right mean.. Of couieie, we do not want our children troublesome to visitors; grown-up peo- ple do not want te pause in their talk and. listen to the unconsidered opinions of thirteen ; but what if we tried. the experiment of reepectful attention for a while? Would not the little folks step talking until they had something to say, quite as Surely if they saw that their words were -listened to with attention as if they felt that their voices were but beating thea,ir? At any rate, by being kind and corteous to them on all occa- sions, not be difficult to teach them when to talk and when to hold their to g,ues. A No ,e1Remedy st B Otes: 0•ne of the ex -officers of South Caro- lina, artiong the sundry charges * of- 'his office, had. " one. ehignon.!'

In. the firsti, days of his occupancy of his, luxurions office -he was excessively an- neyed by thelnterruption of -callers, to gratify Whose idle Curiosity he was, ob- liged to ; leave his !work. Walking down the street one day, a .vell-dressed fe- male figure in a s -tore door caught his eye, and wondering why the .lady. tar- ried sof long, he -approached,and, dis- coveredthat the :figure was a dunimy. He passed pn,. meditating first about the figure, then, 1)y- a natural associa- tion of clef.i„ to Women in general, and. next about the politeness of, Southern- ers to Women, and just -here an original idea struck him. He was sure -that no one, at least no Southerner, would at- tempt to interrupt hinis while he seem- ed. to be talking fola woman. If a quick-. sighted.
