CHOOSING PAPER-HANGINes.-W are in
clined to think that it could be predicted that
(what may be found from experienced the
proprietor of the house will invariably reject
any pattern selected and laid before him.
Nothing will satisfy but the overhauling Of
some hundred pieces. why, SIR" said an
intelligent paper hanger to an architect.
about one Of these selections, 81 have noticed
over and over again that gentlemen get so
bewildered with the lot of patterns that pass
before them, that sometimes they end by
choosing actually the very worst Of the lot .
Instead Of surprise at such result, il would
not be consistent with ascertained facts in
physics if it were not SO. Ii has been conclu-
sively shown by NJ. Chevreal that the eye, in
looking at color after color, is gradually un-
dergoing change, so that the character of each
color is altered; in Short the color is vitiated.
An analogous result is unquestionably pro-
duced in form and proportion; indeed, the
recognition Of il constitutes the whole art Of
design.

MARRIAGE Marriage is the mother

MARRIAGE =" Marriage is the mother Of
the world; it preserves nations, fills the cities
and churches, and peoples heavens. An un-
married man. like Hy in the heart of sweet
apple, dwells in perpetual sweetness, but
alone and cannot enjoy it for want of COM
pany." Marriage, like the industrious bee,
builds houses, forms societies and republics,
sends out colories, and blesses the world. Ii
Is one of tho good institutions which God nj
hrst gave us. Even in Eden it was not good
for man TO be alone. Man was too complete,
as at first made, to be entirely happy. He
was independent without having any depend
ing upon him lie was not to be happy with
out having some other to care for, SO the Lord
God took from him one Of his own ribs, and
out Of it made him a wife. Thus il needs a
wife to restore man to completeness as such
and more especially to complete his happiness
by having a wife 10 depend on him.

GREEN GoosEBERRY JAM-We believe green
gooseberry jam is not very frequently made
for family use, but it is one that we can rec
ommend, especially when the gooseberries are
homegrown, al thas decreases the expense,
and it is essential tass they should be used
fresh. To every sasf quarts of gooseberries
allow six pounds Ct saSar; put into the stew
pan half a po0Ga " agar and enough goose
berries to ccyss sSs bottom; keep moving
these about untsi tiSys IS juice enough to keep
the pan from burning. and continue to add
fruit and sugar little by little. still stirring,
as it will be more likely to burn than u ripe,
juicy fruit When the whole boils up, let it
continue to do so, slowly but thoroughly, for
an hour and and quarter; and a beautiful,
well-keeping preserve is produced. s

POWER OF INsrINCr.-The sluggish sea tur
tie loves her home. A huge creature of this
kind was caught by English sailors near the
island OF Ascension, and burnt a name and
date into it's upper she'll On the way to
England it fell sick, and from sheer pity it
was thrown overheard in the English chan

captured once more, now quite well near its
old home, Ascension. What strange and in

heartless creature 4, 900 miles back through

BEES AND QUAIL Two remarkable facts

BEES AND QUAIL Two remarkable facts
are to be noted in respect TO the advancement
of the whites. The first is that the O usil, IN
known to the Indian, makes its frat appear
ance-from whence no mau krows-when the
white man plows and plants his fields, afford
ing an abundance of delicious food TO the piO-
neers The second fact is, the honey bee is
not found in the country while in the posses
sion Of the Indians. 1t keeps just In advance
of the advancing wave of civilization. When
the Indians see swarms Of these new visitors,
their wise men sadly acknowledge that it is
time for them to abandon their pleasant hunt
ing grounds and the graves Of their father,
and seek new homes
