No children.

A home without children is like a
heaven without angels. We often hear
landlords prefer some Of their tenants
because they have no children. Adj
yertisements, of houses to let or board,
are qualified by the words, "without
children" Caildren are an incum-
brance, nuisance, and are not want
ed. Surprising they change the Or
der, and say "Select circles and class,
es of society, and single persons, and
childless parents;' houses and homes
where no little ips prattle, no little
voices cry. How stiff and prim tho
parlors, how orderly and mechanical
the company, how cold and formal
the salutatious; there is no romp nor
fun there, no scratches on the furnl-
ture, nothing awry, no glee The guests
are like tsh-cold- blooded; no tarot
of paternal feeling beats in those veins
no pets nor playthings, because nc
children are there. Any Of the COM
pany are free to bring in a kitten OF
poodle, with weak eyes, and the cor
ners of his mouth streaked IN chan
nels, like the stream that flows from
the lips of a tobacco chewer; to be
fondled and kissed, and lie on the lay
Of its devoted mistress. But no chill
dren.
Better sweep the flowers from the
soil, better pluck the stars from the
sky; yes, let paint and varnlsh and
upholstery 60, but let the children
come.-Next 10 the song OF an angel is
the laugh Of u child. And the heart
that can feel, and the lins that can say
Il hate chi!dren,' should exchange
laces with Lots Wife.
The man or woman who has fallen,
no matter what the crime is, who re-
,ains in his or her soul the love of song,
If the flowers and Of children, has not
yet been left without the ministry OF
angels, to WOO and to win them back
10 vi!tue,s1And the home that has
not eel to the merry voices o,
cniIlhod las not yet been baptized
t, its nime, even though formal pray
crs may have dedicated it to the pur-
Lose of Il home. However close may
be the atiinities Of loving natures,
The bond that pertect3 that union l.
only found in rarcntagc. The fail
heart is never known until parental
