A CHRISTMAS PRESENT.

The custom of making presents on Christmas |
day is timehonorcd and appropriate we nave
nothing to say against it; around the custom
cluster some Of the dearest recollections OF our
earliest years; but we think that by the exercise
of some judgment in observing it, not only may
the youthful heart be gratited, but the young
head and hand be directed into a channel OF
thought or action which may, in after years,
Weld a rich harvest All healthy children are
fond of play, yet there is hardly single one
which does not show, even in youth, some eent
toward one or another line of profession or trade
To carefully observe this inclination, and adopt
every means of cultivating ii, is the duty oil all
parents. If Il child is a born mechanic, you can
never make first class farmer of him; and II his
love IL the field, the plOw, and the harrow, one
might a well try to run water up NIL as 10
make him decent merchant, Many frst-class
man, whose life might have been one OF great
usefulness, has been ruined by the want OF pro
per judgment on the part of parents. NO means
Of developing such building talent is equal to
that Of some y-like machine or tool which bears
direct resemblance to the greater one OF the man.
and If the taste he not formsd, there Is no system
of training for the development in any particular
line 30 good as some mimic implements which
direct the mental faculties in that channel. A
child may be trained to love architecture by toys
which give ideas of building; another may he
led to develop or improve talent for drawing .by
y transparent slate or box of paints ana pencils
while o love for valuable trade may be engen
dered by a box of tools--probably the most use
full present which farmer could give 10 MS son
for whether he follow the noble profession OF the
farm, or seek his fortune in other lines, there Il
ever throughout life value in having acquired
the 'knack" Of handling tools. Books give
mental food or pleasure, but simple box OF tool
or printing press, costing IS or SlO will no
only give amusement and subjects for thought
but may cause the development OF u genlu
which viii not only reap pecunary fortune bu
he blessing to mankind. Another character q
present not Inappropriate to the older youths
and calculated not only to excite ambition b
also to make them more eontented with home,
an acre of ground to be all their own, or horst
or COW, or hog. Nothing makes man SO niue
true man as o feeling OF ownership i'll som'
thing and a prospect OF bettcring his conditio
In life.
