"Don't Whip Him.'' A

Our Robby was pinchinr the kitten,
And kicking the kitten about;
And pulling beetle to pieces, SIS
His face all . wry in : pout;
His mamma, who, silent and patient,
Had heard all his fretting and noise,
Now reached for the whip on the mantle;
The terror of four- -year-old boys.
But grandma, with snowy-white 'ker-
chief -.,eg
Pinned over her warm. loving breast.
Where ten little heads had been plloWed
And rocked into childhOod's sweet rest,
Looked up from her little wool stocking,
Just finished and laid on her knee,
And said, "dear you II ruin his temper.
You had far better let the child be!
"Don't whip him; his father before him
Was fogged and shut up in the dark,
And stood on one foot in the corner,
And disciplined up to the mark;
We gave him no credit for honor,
But watched him as spiders watch
flies,
And what did it teach him2 Why, mainly
To practice deceit and tell lies.
s'We called it affection and duty
God knows we were fond OF the boy
But / guess his remembrance of child.

So put up that willow whip, daughter,
And try little Robby once more;
You see he's forgotten bis passion,
And lies half asleep on the foor."
Then grandmother lifted her darling,
And patted his head on her breast,
And sang aonut sOld Mother Hubbard
Till all Robbies woes were at rest.
And so the wee whip, bright and yellow
Was laid on the mantle again;

SUNNY Rooks.-Every woman is
wise enough and careful enough to
secure for her house plants every
bit of available sunshine during
the cold winter months. Great
pains are taken to get southern
exposure for them. Indeed, il
one can secure no other than
north window for her plants she
has too much lore for these uncon-
scious. inanimate things to keep
them at all. She would rather
leave them out in the cold TO die
outright, than linger out . martyr
existence in the shade.
Folks need sunshine quite as
much as plants do. Men and wo-
men who have fair degree of
strength and the use Of their legs
can get . glimpse Of the sunshine
nov and then, and if they choose
to do so let them live in rooms
with only q northern exposure,
but If it is possible, let US secure
rooms into which every ray of
sunshine that falls in winter may
enter, for the little babies who are
shut up in the house, invalids who
can not leave their rooms, and
aged people who are too infrm to
get out Of doors. s.5os
Let US reflect for q moment th at
these classes Of persona il kept in
rooms with only north windows
will suffer just as much from the
absence of sunshine, ~ green
growing plants would do in, the
| same rooms, and their suffering is
Of account in proportion - . hui

Although left an orphan at an
early period in his life, there were
those who cared for him, and
taught him the right way, yet as he
grew up, being ambitious, he threw
off all the restraints thrown around
him, satisfied he could take care OF
him self, and became what is known
in common parlance. "a fast young
man." when in an evil hour, he gave
way to temptation and fell, and not

calmly, which. perhaps. he had not
done for years, then and there he
resolves to be . better man, which
purpose he faithfully carried out.
He gained the confidence of the
officers, and the respect Of his shop
mates; but being sensible that
something more was vomiting to
make him . good man, than = mere

Hollands German Tonic

Was compounded for those not inclined to
extreme bitters, and is intended for use in
cases when some alcoholic stimulant is re-
quired in connection with the Tonic proper
ties Of the Bitters. Each bottle of the Tonic
contains one bottle Of the Bitters, combined
with pure SANTA Cruz Rum. and favored in
such manner that the extreme Bitterness OF
the Bitters is overcome, forming . prepara-
ton highly agreeable and pleasant to the pal
ate, and containing the medicinal virtues Of
the Bitters. The price of the Tonic is s1.50
per bottle, which many persons think too
high. They must take into consideration that
the stimnlant used is guaranteed to be of a
pnre quality. A poor article could be fur
nished at q cheaper price, but is it not better
to pay little more and have good article

but the best ingredients, and they who ex-
