/. Completing an Education. -

Emma G. "feels bad" She says,
{" because other girls have opportunity to
complete their education by continuous
study" while she is compelled to teach or
do other work in order to get the means
to attend school. But she says she is
" courageous. Why should she feel
bad ?" The education she is getting as a
teacher will be of far more value to her than
any Ishe can obtain by rushing through
any school and graduating. She has OPP
portunity to apply. in practice. what she
learns, then, again! What an absurd idea
it is that 'sother girls have opportunity to
complete their education" Education is
never completed" This loose kind of
talk and looser idea ought to be driven out
Of all girls minds. 1t is vicious in its in
fuence and effects. Education is never
complete; and it matters little
in what situation one is placed
so that he or she remembers
that every experience, word, act, is part
Of the education; and if these experien-
ces, words and acts bear upon the vocation
chosen or the business one is compelled t
pursue, the time and effort thus employed
| are not lost nor is the education retarded
These schools which graduate pupils in 9
given time, and call their education
9. complete" after they have pursued GER
tain studies, ought to be written down AZ
humbug, as they are. Emma G. had 1
great deal better get her education as
teacher than enter one OF them !!

About Farmers Homes.

A great deal is said and written about
farmers homes how to make them attrac-
tive, and how to keep boys on the farm.
Little of it proves seed sown upon good
ground, important as subject as it is. 1t
needs experience.n this as in other matters
to make correct decisions as to the elements
necessary in farmers home and life to
make them attractive to youth. Having
lust passed the meridian between youth
and manhood, | think myself quali-
fled to name some of the true elements
of success in this line.
In the first place, young boys should not
be overworked, for nothing will sooner,
or more certainly, ALLEVIATE them from
home and the farm. Believing both to be
only places of toll and confinement, they
seek at their earliest opportunity for some
more congenial sphere of labor, and leave
the farm and home to degenerate. Boys
should have time for recreation, and when
thew work such work as will interest them.
They should be allowed full advantage
of all school privileges, with means for
study, and willing assistance at home.
Books, papers, &C., Of q proper-not
all of serious-characte should be pro-
yided, and taste for study and reading
thus early inculculated, engaging their
minds, and keeping them closed to the
glittering Illusions of the world. The
house should not be made prison, but a
place of unlimited freedom in proper
games and amusements, with the flash Of
laughing eyes to light its rooms, the Goals
of affection to warm its hearth, mirth and
wit to cheer the occupants. AT the table,
instead of grim silence let the thoughts
have vent; converse upon matters of gen.
eral, personal or public interest; discuss
the topics of the day, and the affairs OF
the farm. Keep the house and grounds,
after. they are tastelully laid out, in
thorough repair; let order and
neatness prevail in both, and keep
the daily, monthly, and yearly work
systematically arranged and performed
Educate the children in religious as well as
secular affairs, and seek to instil habit Of
regular attendance upon divine services.
Solicit and engage the fullest confidence in
all matters, either of little or great impor.
lance. Preserve unity in family relations
letting no bad example Of the parent meet
the eyes of the children. and show dis
erect iberality of opinion in all matters
The girls may do a great deal towards
keeping the boys at home, for if they tr,
to make the indoor affairs interesting
pleasant and agreeable-which is tn
natural sphere of their sex the boys vii
appreciate their efforts and be more conten
ted at home.

VENTILATE YOUR BEpRooM.-We
saw recently the advice published that the
first thing to be done in the morning should
be the opening Of the bedroom window.
This suggests the rule that the window is
10 be kept shut during the night, and a
more pernicious suggestion could scarcely
be given. The air in any ones bedroom
should, during the night, in no case be shut
off from The exterior atmosphere, except
when the room is very large and contains
only single person. To make q simple
and striking trial of the impurity OF the air
of close room Of ordinary SIZE when a
person has slept there a night, let him or
some one else enter the apartment alter
breakfast, or after having been out IN the
fresh air, the doors and windows mean
while being kept shut. In most cases the
air will be found quite offensive. Our rule
is to keep window entirely, or at least
partially open during the whole night, and
on rising, shut it, so that in dressing no
danger will be incurred in taking cold. On
leaving the room, throw every door and
window open.
