Pew of us realize enormous power of literature upon childhood, for it Is so insidious In Its action Book after book is read and, we think, tor- gotten, yet those very books are the ones upon which opinions have been formulated; here a little and there a little, we have amassed our edge through them as medium. We bear parents exclaiming at the ex- ideas their children have; they often say they cannot think where they have got them from and add that they never thought such things In their young days. Of course they did not; the last generation read much less and traveled far less than the present one; there were no cir- libraries and books so cheap that a pence could buy Their opportunities were limited with- in a much narrower circle, and it Is because of the very facilities which our children now have for reading that it Is more Important than ever that they should be super vised in the matter. The control will not felt. If only from the first those in authority would take trouble to read aloud suggest delightful books. A child who found by experience that he has received the keenest enjoyment when hearing or reading books recommended by his parents, will be more likely to ask for advice and discuss what he has read with them. So the trend of his men- growth can directed, and those who are responsible for his education will have a better knowledge of his Individual development and will retard nor unduly force him.

Deadly Weapons of War. Individuals attain considerable skill in handling tin bayonet. It is almost a mooted question In military circles whether the bayonet or saber is the better weapon. The saber, Is quicker weapon, and more kill is needed to handle It. Its user, however, depends entirely on the strength of his right wrist and right arm, whereas the man with the net can so regulate his thrusts and parries that nearly every muscle of body is brought into service. That It Is plainly, gives the net the advantage In the latter stages of a duel between men armed bayonet and saber. Truthful James.
