OUR CHILDREN ELO PATRL For weeks Mary had been falling be- hind her classes. She lost interest in everything that meant school work. A poor report card, a loss of class standing, deprivation of special privileges, all fell upon Mary without effect. “The only thing Mary wants to do is read.” . “Does she read much?" “She would read every waking minute if I let her. But I don’t let her. I took every book she had and locked them up, and I forbade the library to give her any. Then that child—just shows you how persistent she is—borrowed books and hid them. Of course I found them and I punished her for getting them. She can't read any books this term.” “What sort of books does she read?” “Story books. She liked the “Daugh- ter of the Seine” and “Jane Eyre” and ‘Tom Sawyer. Such books are all right, of course, but Mary has all the books she wants in her school work. They are enough. I think reading story books took her mind off her work, and that’s why she is failing.” “Mary,” said the history teacher, “your mother says you want to read books all the t'me.” “Well, I do.” “I:g" about getting in time for school work?” “I was getting in my school work all | right. I had good marks up to the| time my mother took my books away. I can't just read text books. They're too zupld. I ought to have something else “If you were allowed to read in the evening after IQII had done your lessons for the next day would you feel better? Do you think it would help your lessons or hinder them?” “Of course I think it would help. I'm not dumb, but when you can't read anything but text books you get dumb. That is, if you're like me. I have to have b'oon I can’t get along without “Do as you like,” sald Mary's mother your w‘f If she improves next month, then I'll think I'm wrong and your're right, but if she doesn't, then you're wrong.” Mary was told that she could read after she had finished her work every evening until her regular bedtime. The books selected were good ones and in- teresting to a child of Mary's age and tastes. fore the end of the month she had made up her work and was stand- ing about the middle of the class. That was about where her ability would place her, the teacher said. But by the end' o!ul-nstcnnmry'umn;mup- per 10. There are children who read books as old men chew tobacco—to make their minds believe they are occupled. That sort of reading is not to be encouraged. There are children who never read at all. That attitude is not to be encour- aged. Children need good books. If we steadily place them before children, if we make it possible for them to read in peace and comfort, if we hold to the happy medium, the children must bene- fit. Reading is one of the best habits a child can form.

George IV instituted charges of un- faithfulness against Queen Caroline and forced them into Parliament, but her counsel, Lord Brougham end Thomas Denman, afterward Lord Denman and | X‘:;'dhchlet Justice of England, acquit- er. Everybody in England despised George for his action ‘:Plnu the Queen. He returned this dislike cordially, but cen- tered it almost entirely upon Thomas Denman for the part he had played in the trial of Caroline. He was forced to consent to Denman receiving the silk gown which accompanied his occupancy of the office of common sergeant of the City of London. But he swore he would mever have anything to do with him. “That wretch shall never set foot in any house of mine,” he said. | ‘The time came for the submission of MENU FOR A DAY. BREAKFAST.

The re- corder was too sick to make the report, and it devolved upon Mr. Denman, as common sergeant, to deliver it. “I will not have him,” sald George. ‘The Duke of Wellington, as chancel- lor, went to him to expostulate. The King fell into a terrible tantrum and became violently ill. Attendants swarmed around him, trying to quiet him. The duke, coldly angry, had for the moment to surrender. “We shall have to let him have his own way,” he said. But he was irked beyond measure.

That is all there is George, however, held steadily to his purpose. “I am surprised,” he told Wellington, “that you, knowing the firmness of my character, should expect me to give in" The duke thought him not firm, but bull-headed.
