Home Feeling.

O We fathers and mothers who have
| sons and daughters growing up around
you, do you ever think of your respon-
sibilty in this regard, your responsible
ty for keeping alive the home sentiment
in the hearts of your children? With
in the limits of your means, remember
that the obligation rests on you to make
their home the pleasantest place upon
this rolling earth to make the word
"home" for them the synonym for
"happiness. | would not have yon
import the vices of the outside world
into your homes for any purpose but
| would have you go to the utmost verge
of what is moral, to provide at home
those things which cntice young and
growing persons away from home. Let
me assure You that you had better spend
your money III doing this than in osten-
tation or luxury, and far, far better
spend it thus, than to amaSs fortune
Tor your children to squander in the
future. And not only as regards amuse-
monts, but also comfort and refinement,
for children have keen appreciation of
these things; this is much the best
policy. Don't send your boy to school
in ill-tittting garments, collar all awry
and chaiin his neck, buttons missing,
and shoes down at the heel Don't
make warehouse or clothes-press of
his bedroom. Don't feed him ON sour
bread, and tough meat, and burnt
coffee. Don't let noise and dissension
and misrulc spoil the hours he spends
Mt home. Don't do any of these things
if You can possible avoid it especially
don't do them for the purpose of laying
up money for his future use. The rich
est legacy you can leave him is a life
long, inextinguishable and fragrant re-
collection of his home, when time and
death have forever dissolved the en-.
chantmcnt. Give him that, and he will
in the strength of it, make his own way
in the world but let his rccOllections
of home be repulsive, and the fortune
you may leave him will be poor com
pension for the loss Of that tenderness of
heart and purity of life which not only
n pleasant home, but the memory of
one, would have secured. Remember
this, too, that, while he will never feel
grateful for your money when once you
are under ground, he will go to your
green grave and bless your very ashes
for that sanctuary Of quiet, comfort and
refinement into which you may, if you
possess the means, transform your homo.

A Word About Babies.

The New York Sun contains the fol-
lowing excellent and timely sugges-
tons
Once the helpless innocents were
made to suffer untold misery of the ex-
perience of their mothers, who clad
their darlings in the dainty cold linen
shirts and Overskirts with linen bands :;
next CANA the low-necked dresses, pret-
ty but thoroughly unhealthy, leaving as
they did the sensitive neck and arms of
the little ones exposed. 1t is difficult
to convince oneself that vanity is the
root Of that terror of mothers, the collie,
and that proper warmth will do more
toward relieving the child, and in truth,
keeping it entirely free from the terri
BILE pain than all the soothing syrups
and paregoric that can be be bought.
Little knit flannel shirts are far better
than linen, for they are warm to the
delicate skin The bands of the tlan-
mel shirts should be Of thin fine flannel
Linen or cotton bands should be used
in other skirts and the slips or robes
should all have long sleeves and be high
in the neck. Fresh air never Injuries II
child if its body is properly protected.
Again if our friends are at all crcdu-
lous, let them try the following exper-
pertinent. If the little one is much
troubled with the COLES, and has not
been accustomed to narcotics let the
mother put flannel next to its skin, and
keep its hands, arms and feet warm for
n few days, or if the babe has been un-
healthy, and flannel that has been worn
next to the body is removed, the cXpcr-
imcnt will cause the unsat isfactoly ne
suit of pain to the child, and anxiety to
the mother. While we advocate warmth,
we do not approve Of too much cover
ing. A sleeping child requires much
less than an adult; if too many blan-
kets are over it, the head is covered with
beads of perspiration, and the child
will become weak and half-sick use
just enough, and the babe will wake up
laughing and happy With simple food,
air, exercise, and warmth, there is no
reason why our little ones may not be
well without the use of medicine.

A BALLAD.


The morn Is hanging her iire-fringed vail,
Made Of the mist DER the walnut boughS,
And Barbara, with her cedar pail,
Comes to the meadow to call the cows.
"The little people that live In the air
Are not for my human hands to wrong
Says Barbara, and her loving prayer
Takes them up as she goes along.
Gay sings the miller, and Barbaras mouth
Purses with echoes 1t will not repeat,
And the rose on her check bath may-day''

In the line with the ending 81 love you, sweet.
Yonder the mill il, small and white,
Hung like vapor among the rocks,
Good spirits say to her, morn and night,
Barbara Barbara stay with your tOcks.
Stay for the treasures you have TO keep;
Cherish the love that you know Is true;
Though stars should shine in the tears you weep
They never would come out of heaven to you
And were you to follow the violet veins,
Over the hills, TO the ends of earth,
barbara, what would you get for your palms,
More than your true-loycs love IL worth?
So never a thought about braycr mills;
Of prOuder lovers your dreaming cease
world il shut in among these hills,
Stay IN it, Barbara, stay for your peace"

The Mystery of Perfume.

No one has yet been able to analyHe
or demonstrate the essential action OF
perfume. Gas can be weighed, but not
scents the smallest known creatures,
the very monads of life, can be caught
by microscopic lens and made to de-
liver up the secrets of their organiza-
tion but what it is that emanates from
the pouch of the musk-deer, that fills
whole space for years and years with its
penetrating odor, IN odor which an
illimitable number of extraneous sub
stances can carry ON without diminish
ing it in size and weight, and what it is
that the warm summer air brings to us
from the flowers, no man yet has been
able to determine. SO fine, 20 subtle,
50 imponderable, it has eluded both our
most delicate weights and measures and
our strongest lenses. If we could come
to the essence of each odor, we should
have made an enormous stride forward,
both in hygiene and in chemistry and
none would profit more than the medi-
cal profession if it could be as conclu-
sively demonstrated that such an odor
proceeded from such and such cause
as we already know Of sulphur, sulphu-
rated hydrogen, ammonia, and the like.
AS it is, no one knows anything; and if
the art of the perfumers forms one of
the chief delights of our civilized
senses, the cause by which he works is
Il mystery solved by none.
