The Position of a House.

HOUSES on streets running nearly north
and south are far preferable to those To-
Gated ON those going east and west, in a
sanitary estimate. In the first, here at
the north of the equator. the sun shines
brilliantly in the forenoon on the front,
and with nearly equal force in the after
noon on the rear. Thus dampness is ex-
PEELED, and the whole edifice is dry and
the air far purer for its solar exposure. II
house is on an east and west street,
those fronting north are decidedly the
best for residence, because the SUMS ac-
ton on the yard, the kitchen. and usual
regions of neglected accumulations, puri-
lies and modifies the humid atmosphere
that is sure to predominant in yards and
the backside of houses whose rear is north
of the street. Thus circumstanced. the
back rooms are never so pleasant, cheer.

reason of the frequent swing of the from

InyidiOus Criticism.

THERE is constantly great deal of in
vidious remark going the rounds of the
press, and, for the matter of that, the
rounds of society as well, upon the SUBJ
ject of feminine dress and all its appurten-
ance of frills and furbelows.
In a season of dull politics one would
suppose that the chief end of man was to
attend censOrially to the costume of the
weaker sex, and to spare no slur or fling,
ill-natured or good-natured gibe, that can
be made concerning it, and we imagine
that now that the Presidential campaign
is over, we shall be called upon to undergo
a new exhibition of the thing.
EndeaVOr to cOnciliate these evil-minded
critics seems to be useless, for no fashion
pleases them, let it be what it may they
have no patience with the pure antique;
they laugh to scorn the ruff and fardin-
gale they pronounce the dress of the
First Empire indecent, the dress of the
Second Empire senseless; nothing is more
frivolous than the dress that Worth de-
signs, nothing more barbarous than the
dress of an Englishwoman, nothing more
ag-baby-like than the dress of the harem,
nothing more wasteful than the dress of
| the American woman.
When, a few years since, hoops ap-
peared, these critics compared lady to
the planet Saturn within his rings; when
hoops began to go out, and paniers. and
ruflles and sashes to come in, they COM
pared her to a scarecrow, with her rags
| fluttering round her. When bonnets
were large, they flung their pellets at the
faces that were seen down the vista of ''a
Leghorn lane:" when hats were adopted,
they wondered how soon the rest of the
masculine garb would follow when the
face was hidden in calash, they were gay
over mocR-modesty; when bonnets be-
came mere rose and ribbon, they had
their sneer for the braZen face of the wear
er when youth and beauty went about
in prunella, there was not enough praise
to be accorded to the sensible high heels
of our ancestresses as soon as high heels
were accepted, it was discovered ttlat they
produced incurable, diseases of the spinal
cord. The Puritans found it necessary tC
enact a law against puff-combs The
present generation hailed with delight
the vermin in the jute. In short, there il
not fashion from fig leaves to crinolin,
that has not been the subject of their ami
: madversions; and the only particles o

A Glaring Deficiency.

AMONG the sufficiently numerous de-
ficiences of our beloved country is, the
want of an Education for the Children of
the Rich. Physiological results of igno-
rance and of consequent mistakes in the
use Of life-or perhaps instead of mistakes
the term should be wrong conditions OF
society,-in our great business centers,
make them often sort of whirlpools into
which good strains of blood are incessant.
ly diving and disappearing. A strong
eager resolute worker comes into the city,
career of furious unrelaXing vacationless
struggling for money, marries, and he
and his wife go straight on in the same
road. Even while young man, even
though upright and pure in life, the fresh
ness and cleanly vigor of his youth are
soiled, dried, stagnated, enfeebled, by the
hot fury of his money-masing, the dead
air of the city streets, life without eXer-
else, vacation, or any health-giving con-
stituent and the children born to him
are by a necessary result the physiologi-
cal embodiments Of mistake, unbalance,
impel fection. They are born ill-construct-
Ell; their very marrow and pith has weak
streaks in it; they are ships whose tim
bers had dry rot in them when they were
| framed.
Now, of all the distinctions of man, the
highest is, his infinite power of amend
ment, of reparation, of recovery, of inn
provement. Even for the strengthles'
sprouts of these unlucky city stocks
neither Psychologist nor educator-scien
tific as we pretend to be-knows how
great measure of redemption might b.
secured by proper education of minC
and body. For our poor, our schools an(
our life afford it. In other countries
much is accomplished by the air of wis
and just sentiments as to the responsible
ty OF inheritors of wealth. But with us
> physiological ignorance prevents an,
remedy for the congenital weaknesses G
money-makers' children, and social an
moral ignorance prevents any remedy fo
the peculiar temptations around the helI

winters paid his passage home;
lacked FAC his ice-box, gone half way
10 the Arctic pole, they say
But know the old rulfan still
Skulks about from hill to hill,
Where his freezing footsteps cling,
Though it's Spring.
Heed not what the poets sing
In their rhymes about the spring;
spring was once potent queen
Robed in blossoms and in green.
That, think, was long ago;
Is she buried in the snow,
Deaf to all our caroling-
Poor old Spring?
Windows rattling in the night;
Shutters that you thought were tight
Slamming back against the wall;
Ghosts of burglars in the hall;
Roaring winds and groaning trees;
Shlmneys shuddering in the breeze;
Doleful damps in everything
Such is Spring.
Sunshine trying hard awhile
On the bare brown fields to smile;
Frozen ruts and slippery walk;
Gray old crops of last years stalks;
Shivering hens and moping cows;
Curdled sap in leafless boughs,
Nipped by winters icy sting
Such is Spring.
Yet the other day heard
Something that thought bird.
lie was brave to come so soon,
But his pipes were out of tune;
And he chirped as if each note
Came from f1annels round his throat,
And he had no heart to sing
Ali poor thing.
If there comes little thaw,
Still the air is chill and raw
Here and there patch of snow,
Dirtier than the ground below,
Dribbles down aSnarshy flood,
Ankle-deep you stick in the mud
In the meadows-while you sing,
This is Spring.
Are there violets in the sod?
Crocuses beneath the clod?
When will Boreas give us peace?
Or has Winter signed lease
For another month of frost,
Leaving Spring to pay the cost?
For it seems he still is king
Though tits Spring.

1t was Christmas time. and the merry chime
or bella flled all the air.
When Printer old. with feeble step,
Crept up the creasing stair
There was many trace of grief In his Iacc.
And touches Of frost in his hair.
And he picked the wick OF musiy lamp,
And Allied IL up with oil
And he lii the lamp, and he lit MS piFe,
And commenced his mtdnlsht toll:
"Oh, God" he said, 4" | would were dead,
And free from this sarth's turmoil!
For II Is work. work, work!
With never timo To play,
And IL Is toll, tod, toll!
With scarcely q time 10 pray.

Early and late,
Summer and Winter,
Still my sad fate

Through days and weeks and years.
And none in this weary world
To caro- for my JOYS or my fears
Oh. many a hard.earned crust =.

As the Printer wept he seemed to trace,
Through his tears, the form OF an angel face
Rising 40 gently ont Of his case,
With mild blue eyes and chssksso fair,
And many a curl or golden hair,
And be knew IL WAS her whom years ago
They had laid away meath the Christmas snow ;
And his heart grew strong-for to him was given
To know there was Que who Ioved him IN
