EARLY ATTACHMENTs.

The attachments formed in early life
are generally more enduring than those
formed in after years. Almost every
person looks back with a melancholy
pleasure, With smile or tear, upon the
suu--bSight hours of childhood and
youth: Surrounded unto overwhelming
by the noise and strife of an eager, con-
tending world, fancy will, at times, bear
him back to the hallowed spot of his
birth. The lofty woods again re-echo
with the mingled shouts Of mirth; again
he sports with his companions beneath
each we'll Remembered tree in the orch
ard; aud again he sits with the loved
and loving ones around the wide old
hearth, while the joyous hours are un-
needed. There sits the father, the
mother, the sister, the brother, each in
their favorite place in the circle, and as
kind and careful as ever before. The
big, bright fire sparkles and gltRs en-
bl smatical of the glow in the hearts Of
those by whom it is now surro unded.-
Perchance there will come, too, reeol-
ction of one dearer still than the cho-
sen home circle; and again beneath the
placid rays of the pale moon, he holds
1the white hand eonfdingly within his
own, and listens to the transporting
sounds of that voice. But reality brings
him back, and tells him that the fire
upon that hearthstone has long since
died out, the fame of life has been ex-
tinguished by the hand of death, and
that death has led away with him that
radiant form.
"And should he seek his once loved home,
Where is the hand thatcropped the flowers?
Unheard, their clock repeats it's hours,
| Cold is the hearth within their bowers;
Its echoes and its empty tread,
Would sound like voices of the dead"
The old homestead is deserted! Ruin
has here had its perfect work. Where
once sat the happy sire, and in the cor
ner where the sister nestled, now the
horrid form of the Tattlesnake is coil
ing. The flower garden is overgrown
with weeds, and the trees of the orchard
are moss-covered and decayed; Of en-
tirely passed away. But he refuses to
think of it thus: he reflects upon it only
as the abode of contentment, and the
home of love; and wherever fate may
bear him on through the world, THIS
/ m1st ever remain the green spot, the
enc oasis in the desert of life. But he
gives 1t only thought; he dashes the
tear which has unconsciously trickled
down his cheek. His motto is 'sOnward, :"
e|looks not back, or he may be trans
formed into monument ofregret, more
immoyable than the pillow of salt which
was once Lots wife; he nerves him again
for the combat, and hastens on, forget
full of past, as he should be, and fully
believing, with the poet, that
@There's life alone in duty done,
And rest alone in striving"

About Order.
Little friends, put things right back
into their proper places. Never leave
things all about, heller skelter, topsy
turvy-neoer When you use any arti-
cle-hoe, shovel, rake, pitehfork, AK,
hammer, tongs, boots or shoes, books,
slatcs, pencils, writing apparatus, pins,
thimbies, piueushions, needles, work
baskets, kitchen furniture, every article
of housewifery or husba ndry, no matter
what it is-the very moment you have
done using it, return it to its proper
place. Be sure to have special place
for, and everything in its place. Order,
order, perfect order is the watchword,
heavens first law. How much precious
time is saved (aside from vexation) by
observing order, systematic regularity.
And little folks should begin early tc
preserve order in rythipg-from
habits Of order. Those loose, slipshod,
slatternly habits are formed in child
hood, and habits once formed cling for
life. Young friends, begin early to
keep things straight in their proper
places; study neatness, order, economy,
sobriety, everything just, honest, pure,
lovely, and of good report:
