A Religion for Babes.

It is of little use to preach to chill
dren sorrow for sin. If they can be
made to feel sorrow for sins it is all that
we can expect. If we believe that God
is their Father, why not believe that he
acts on fatherly principles? We know
very little about the future; but we
know of surety that honor and truth
and love are the best possessions in this
world, and they cannot harm us IN the
next. Why should not q child be
taught that his Father in Heaven wants
of him just what his father on earth
wants-that he should learn his lessons,
and be polite to his teachers, and fair
in his games, and dutiful to his parents,
and friendly to all that repentance
means only that he should not exult in
ng-doing, but regret it and try to
do 80 no more, and make it the rule
and study of his life to do the upright,
the just, the high-minded thing, in
stead of the doubtful and despicable
one How can he love God, whom he
hath not seen, except through the friends
whom he hath seen? Why did God
devise this most intrinsic and elaborate
scheme of the human family, but for
the express purpose of leading the
rude, ignorant soul with sweet, slow
steps, through all the gradations OF an
imal instincts and human love up to His
own infinite love? Fathers and moth
ers, teachers and preachers, can clear
the way for his inexperienced feet by
simply giving him true ideas OF has
position, of the relation in which he
stands to his Creator, of the entire, the
rational friendliness and sympathy with
which his Maker regards him. Or they
can confuse and confound him with
their distractions and their lnconse-
quences. It is difficult to be angry, for
the sword pierces through their own
souls also. 1t is difficult not to be
angry, for the unspeakable woe is
caused by the peryersion OF truth IN
those whose duty it is to present truth.

Sausage Meat

A good recipe for sausage meat is
sometimes difficult to get just when it
is wanted. Here is one that we think
will meet all the requirements:
Take all the spare meat and tender
loins from your pork, and grind it in
sausage grinder or chop it. Season it
highly with black pepper, salt and
powdered sage. Boil one or two pods
red of pepper aud pour the sea over it ::
work it all up. Cook small piece to
add what it wants. Pack in jar, or
soaked and cleaned nicely. Hang them
up to dry. Smoking makes them hard.
james Wick gives these directions
for the treatment of insects that infest
house-plants in Winter: :" If the green
fly, or aphis, appears, wash with soap
suds frequently, and occasionally with
O little tobacco water, or a detection of
quassia chips. If the red spider comes,
it shows the plants are in too dry an at
mosphere. Burn a little sulphur under
the plants, the fumes of which will kill
the spider, and afterward keeps the
stems and leaves we'll moistened. Occa-
sionally, but not often, worms appear
in the pots. This can be avoided III a
great measure by careful potting. A
little weak lime water is sometimes of
benefit in such cases, also five drops of
liquid ammonia to a gallon of water,
though, perhaps, the better way is to
re-pot, removing the earth carefully, so
as not to injure the growth of the
plant.

Good Advice.

Mr.. Harris closes his "Walk and
Talks" for the year, the Agricult,rist,
with the following valedictorv senti-
ments
Il want it understood that my faith
in good farming and my respect for
good farmers grows stronger and strong
er every year. / still believe in
summer-fallowing in clay land, and am
satisfied that fall following is a coed
thing. l believe that weeds can be
killed, and am making considerable
Roadway against them. Ny corn is the
best and my oorn-stubble the cleanest l
l have ever had-better and cleaner than
the Deacon's think we pillow too
much land, and do not pillow our land
enough. We must have cleaner land.
We must raise bigger crops, or there is
no profit in farming. We must keep
better stock, and feed more literally.
We must make more manure, and what
is still more important, we must make
better manure. And must take care of
what we do make.

As the result of a series of expert

Bleaching powders rapidly decompose
all hydrogen compounds, such as am
monia, sulphuretted hydrogen, sulphide
of ammonium, phospharetted hydro
gen; and these are the gases which oc-
casion miasma. 1t acts rapidly by lib
Grating oxygen, and its chloride violent
ly decomposes organic matter. At the
same time bleaching powders are a
cheap commercial article, and hence al
ways accessible. in order to avoid the
inconvenience often resulting from the
liberated chloride, the ingenious device
has been tried of inclosing the bleach
ing powders in bag made of parch-
ment paper. This bag remains quietly
where it is placed, and by the principle
of endosmose and exosmose. the full
effect of the liberated chlorine is attain

Advice to Young Married People.

Before marriage and afterward, let
them learn to center all their hopes of
real and lasting happiness in their own
Preside; let them cherish the faith that
in home, and all the English virtues
which the love of homeingenders, lies the
only true source of domestic felicity let
them believe tina tround the household
gods of Contentment and tranquility
cluster i'll their gentlest and most grace
full forms and that many weary hunters
of happiness through the noisy world
have learnt this truth too late, and
found q cheerful spirit and a quiet
mind only at home at last. How much
may depend on the education of daugh-
tiers, and the conduct of mothers-how
much of the brightest part of our old
national character may be perpetuated by
their wisdom or frittered away by their
folly-how much of it may have been
lost already, and how huch more in
danger of vanishing every day-are
questions too weighty for discussion
here, but we'll deserving q little serious
consideration from all young couples,
nevertheless. To that oneyoung couple
on whose bright destiny the thoughts of
nations are fixed, may the youth of
England look, and not in vain, for an
example. From that one couple, blest
and favored as they are, may they learn,
that even the glare and glitter of a
court, the splendOr of palace, and the
pomp and glory of throne, yield in
their power of comforting happiness to
domestic worth and virtue From that
one young couple may they learn that
the crown of a great empire, costly and
jeweled though it be, gives place in the
estimation of queen to the plan gold
ring that links her woman's nature to
that of tens of thousands of her humble
subjects, and guards in her womnns
heart one secret store of tenderness,
whose proudest boast shall be that it
knows no royalty save Natures own,
and no pride of birth but being the
child of heaven So shall the highest
young couple III the land for once hear
the truth, when men throw up their
caps, and cry with loving shouts-God
bless them !-CharLes Dickens.
