what had happened to each since they
last met. Stendhal had enjoyed an unin-

friend had experienced many reverses OF
fortune.

Why, now, thanks be to Heaven, and

"How so!
"The son of man who robbed me,
came unexpectedly in possession OF a
very considerable property, and the first
use he made of it was to pay every shll,
ling his father owed"
"What a worthy fellow?"
"Ah! you would say so if you knew
all. The father, who was universally be.
lieved to be very rich, had taken up money
wherever he could and the amount he
owed was within a few hundreds of the
sum his son inherited. The young man
did not hesitate; he paid the last farthing
of his unworth fathers debts. AS none
of US had the smallest claim against him,
we felt it our duty to offer to give up a
part but he would not hear of it"

GIVE YOUR CM1LD 4 PNrER.-A child
beginning to read becomes delighted with
a newspaper, because he reads the names
of things which are very familiar, ,,andwill
make progress accordingly. A newspa-
per in one year is worth a quarters
schooling to child, and every father
must consider that substantial information
is connected with advancement. The
mother Of 4 family, being one of the
heads, and having more immediate
charge Of children, should herself be in
structed. And mind occupied, becomes
fortified against the ills of life and is braced
for any emergency. Children amused by
reading or study, are of course more con-
siderate and more easily governed. How
many persons who have not spent twenty
dollars for books for their families, would
have given hundreds to reclaim a son or a
daughter who had ignorantly or thought
lessly fallen into temptation.
