Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lilian's Golden Hours Opprobrium on human nature, and are an enigma to those who have to deal with their amelioration. I therefore h0pe that these pages may lead such as have children to see the humanizing effects that may arise from surrounding them with dumb favour ites, and by teaching, through example, uniform tenderness and care thereto. I have had another abstract point in view, though but lightly touched upon, in the chapter entitled The Turret Cooks; it is, that children should be taught to comprehend that labour, under all its manifold manifestations, is worthy of respect; and that to do the smallest thing well requires both accustomed skill and patience. Were children taught this reverence for all worthy labour - were they made to somewhat understand that the humblest human duties well performed are necessary to, and of account in, the great sum of human causation, we might hope to find in the generations to follow us, less and less of that scorn or class for class, and individual for individual; more and more of that sym pathy which humanizes and exalts; and more and more hopefully might we expect to see the increase of those simple tastes and habits, both socially and individually, out of which can alone come the true solution of some of the most solemn of our social problems.
