Home, Bright ana Pleasant.
BY ANNE WELLINGTON.


More than building snowy mansions
More than dress and fine array
More than domes aud lofty steeples-
More than station, power, and sway:
Make your home both neat and tasteful,
Bright and pleasant, always fair;
Where each heart shall rest contented,
Grateful for each beauty there.
More than lofty, swelling titles
= More than Fashions Turing glare
More than Msmmon's gilded honors-
More than thought can well compare:
See that home is made attractive
By surroundings pure and bright;
Shrubs arranged with taste and order,
Flowers, with all their sweet delight.
Seek to make your home most lovely,
Let il be smiling cot,
Whore. n sweet contsusmsut resting.
Care and sorrow are forgot:
Where the flowers and trees are waving,
Binds will sing their sweetest song;
Where the purest thoughts will linger,
Confidence and love belong.
Make your home little Eden.
Initiate her smiling bowers;
Let neat and simple cottage
Stand among bright trees aud flowers,
There, what fragrance and what brightness
Will each blooming rOse display!
Here. simple yine-cIad arbor
Brightens through each summer day.
There each heart will rest contented,
Seldom wishing eer to roam;
Or, if roaming, still wilt cherish
MemTies of that pleasant home,
Such home makes man the better:
Sweet and lasting its control
Home, with bright and pure surroundings,
Leaves its impress on the soul.

Ice FOR DIPTHERIA.-A correspondent
the Providence Journal ,uches for the ef-
fcacy of ice as a cure for diptheria,
Group, and all ordinary inflammation CT the
throat. The manner Of application is as
follows:
Break up small lump of ice in tow ell
and put the piece in a bowl Take posi
ton slightly incliued backwar either in a
chair OF on sofa. Proceed for half an
hour Wit teaspoon to feed yourself with
smtll Jumps Of ice. letting :hem dissolve
slowly in the back part Of the mouth or the
entrance of the throat. A single applica
tioU will often break up a common sore
throat, which otherwise would have a
course Of two or three days. In case of q
bad sore throat, use the ice frequently and
freely. 10 case of liberation or diptbe,
ria, keep small lump of ice constantly in
