FOR THE MOTHER'S EYE.
Tli mother Is wine it ho set to U that her children trow up la an atmosphere free from hate and
grdgea and old fewda. Wherever
alienations exist among her rela-
tlvea or friends. It Is well for all
concerned and especially for. the children to bring together the separated partlea, heal th troables and bring about recoactUatlons, and feel the waves of klndllncsa and good will where before 4 there was hatred. Harm Is done to young people by the existence and perpetuation of quarrels, by . hearing of these,
by seeing the algna of tll-fecllng and unklndncsa. They grow up to feel that grudjtes are natural and
general and to expect or take for
a-rante the same disturbance In their own Uvea. They fall to
learn the folly and harm of hate, the misery of permanent feuds.
The mother haa a arrest duty la
this respect. She should purify the atmosphere In which her chll-
dren are rovr1ng np. Moat of the vexations of thin kind come from small orlglna and are not worthy of belan; dlgnlfled by permanency. Many start and are kept np with gossip, Intone and aensclesa talk of trouble makers. When real wronga have been committed. It la the nobler and more mignanlmola part to Ignore, forget, forgive, pour oil on the troubled' water, put coala of Ore on the head ot the wrongdoer by ktndnesa. Moat of these petty quarrels are kept np p by pride) resentment of alights,
4h real or fancied, la form of egot- j Ism, aaya the Mother'a Magaslne. j Wise people let many things go by j default, rather than make a great point of them. .-..- .. Give the children the benefit of an atmosphere free from hata and ailed with good wIlL
