character of the little friends. If sure
that they aro impure minded refuse
them further hospi'ality. Aa your girl
grows older, take her into your confi
dence, and warn her against the lower
world that forms part of this. Set yonr
foot firmly down against eyening walks
with boy friends, as well as the isolated
evening calls. If she has to go to any
evening entertainment without either
patent, insist that it be with the crowd
going the same way, and not with the
one friend. In numbers, often, there is
safety.
If your own hand is not firm enough
to draw her from these tiny currents,
which are but the outer ruin of destruct
ion, enlist her lather's help, and any
friend of your own who may have influ
ence over her, for, with God's help your
child.
And if, for our unworthiness
Toil, watching, prayers are vain
In disappointment He can bless,
So love at heart prevail. L.
