1t is great pity, indeed, that The

Loving Homes,

Notling appears to us SO beautiful in

ton OF parents and children, especially af:
ter the latter have attained maturity, and it
may be formed new relations in life. We
have seen the loving and lovely daughter
after she had become wife and mother.
seize every opportunity of visiting the pa
rental home to lavish her affectionate attcn-
tlons upon her parents, and by thousand
tender and graceful kindnesscs assure them
that though she was an idolized wife and a
happy mother, her heart still clave with
cvcr-strcngthening fcrvor to the father and
mother who watched over her infancy and
guided her youth. 1t has been our privi-
lege to know such, and as we have witnessed
the outpourings Of love and happiness be-
tween these devoted and glowing hearts,
we bave felt that surely much of heaven
might be enjoyed here if all families were
equally attached. And would that every
daughter knew what pure Joy she might
create i'll the paternsl bosom by constant
cherishing of the spirit of filial devotion,
and selling frequent opportunities to make
it manifest in little acts of gentlcncss and
love, Notwithstanding the child may have
become parent. The child never grows
old to fond parent. 1t is alwaysihe dear
child, and never SO dear rs when it keeps up
the childish confidence and love of it's earli-
er years.

began to skip, hop and dance. Jack was
drunk. Next when they, with the intention
of repeating the fun, went to take the Door
monkey from his box, he was not to be seen.
Looking inside, there he lay crouching in
the corner" Come out" said his master.
Afraid to disobey, he came walking on three
legs-thc fore paw was laid on his forehead
saying as plain as words could do, that he
had a headache. Having left hinf some
days to get we'll and resume his gaiety, thew
carried him off to the old scene of reyel.
On entering, he eyed the glasses with man
lfest terror, skulking behind the chairs: and
on his master ordering him to drink. he
bolted and was on the house top in twink
ling. They called him down. He would
not come. His master shook whip at
him. Jack astride the ridgepole grinned
defiance. A gun, which he was afraid of
was pointed at the disciple of temperance !:
he ducked his head and slipped over to the
back of the house. Two guns were now
ieveled at him, one from each side of the
house; upon which seeing his predcament,
and less afraid apparently of the fire than
water the monkey leaps at one bound ON
the chimney top, and getting down into the
tiue, held on with his fore paws. He would
rather be singed than drink.H,He triumph

years after that he could never persuade
the monkey to take another drop of whis-
