ONE-One hour gained by rising
early, is worth a month in the year.
One diseased sheep will spoil a
flock.
One drunkard will keep a family
poor, and make them miserable.
One wife that is always telling
how fine her neighbor dresses, and
how little she can get, Will look
pleasanter if she talks about some.
thing else.
One husband that is penurious
or lazy and deprives his family OF
necessary comforts such as their
neighbors enjoy, is not as desirable
a husband as he ought to be.
One good newspaper is one good
thing in every family.
One unruly animal will teach all
others in company bad tricks; and
the Bible says, lone sinner de-
stroyeth much good"

That wide, open, friendly fire
place, with iis lively cracking mirth,
or It's sweet twilight embers, always
appears 10 me the meet emblem OF
a contented, great heart, answering
back to your own JOY. and lighting
up your shadows. And sometimes,
surrounded by strangers, the object
OF dull remark, or cold criticism, or
Ignorant commentator, how have
| pictured to myself a world OF
warmth like unto he great fireplace
at home, where every man should
be greeted with, "Welcome, wei
come, brotheri" and comfortable,
snug corner OF has own; where all
answer to each other with the sym
pathy and cheer OF shining faces
OYER the glowing hearth. Look
kindly on the stranger, gentle friend,
thy looks are so many sweet, sunny
beams, that betOken the common
fellowship of true humanity, or so
many ICY lays that chill him TO the
heart freeze little bv little
the fountains OF lOve-ihat fill hun
with dlstrust of the world and
hatred OF his species. No man
knows for how much of Others
wlckedness and wretcLedneSs he
may be held accountable. A look
of thine may breed sorrow in thy
brother, though stranger. A look
of thine may do a good deed, NAV
shine from thy face to his face, and
be reflected, like ray of the sun,
over half the globe.
Live, We gentle scenes of home,
Light up, We bright fires of Gomes-
tic hearth! Glow, We pleasant
fancies of the wood fire, Smile
ever, We dimpled portraits on the
wall OF childhood Come in, We
sweet lilac breezes, that rustic

webs of memory are shivering in
your light! Place may change,
friends come and go, hearts grow
cold or wear away beneath the
drops of care till they crumble and
molder beneath the clOds OF the
valley, but a pleasant home, where
childhood lived and loved, never
dies. The memory thereof is a for
tune, an indestructible faculty of
renewing joy.
What is heaven itself but the re-
newell of the fresh hearts and de-
Iightful pleasures of childhood's
home? \ happy child looks for
ward to a happy home above. The
initiated but too early in
guilt and misery, or in misery with
out guilt, seldom hopes for bet
ter accommodation at the journeys

hood descends before him to the
grave.

The BEST WAY.-Timothy Tit
comb writes as follows of Matr;mo-
ny:
When the honeymoon passes
away, setting behind dull noun
tains, or dipping silently into the
stormy sea OF life, the trying hour
Of married life has come. Between
the parties there are no more i!lu-
sions Tine feverish desire of pos
session has gone, and all excitement
receded. Then begins, or should,
the business of adaptation. If they
find that they do not love one an
other, as they thought theydid, they
should double their assiduons atten-
tlons to one another, and be jealous
of every thing which tends in the
slightest way to separate them.-
Life is too precious to be thrown
away in secret regrets or open differ
ences. And let me say to every one
to whom the romance of life has lied,
and who are disconnected in the
degree with their condition
and relations, begin this rconcilia-
ton at once.
Renew the attentions Of earlier
days. Draw your hearts closer to-
gether. Talk the thing all over.
Acknowledge your faults to one an
other, and determine that hence
forth YOU will be all in all to each
other; and. my word for it, you
shall find in your relation the sweet
est joy earth has for you. If you
are happy at home, you will be
happy abroad; the man or woman
who has settled down upon the con
viction that lie or she is attached |
for life to an uncongenial yoke fell
low, and that there is no way of es-
cape, has lost lite; there is no effort
too costly to make which can re-
store to its setting upon the bosom
the missing pearl.
