A Home of Ones own.

Human existencs implies the necessity oi
food, rayment and shelter. a habitaton is
scarcely less Important to life than the ques-
ton, "what shall ye eat aud wherewithall
shall yc be cIoihed2" Happiness, in civilized
countries, largely depends upon the comforts
and oonvenences With which home may Be
invested.
Every man in this country, especially ii be
has family, should possess home of bis
own; and generally, this may be secured in
few years by industry, frugaity aud prudence
In large towns and cities, the money expended
for rent by persons engaged in ordinary avo'
cations will, 10 few years purchase modest
home. To be dependant on landlords year az
ter year for habitatiou is often ioconvenieni
and unpleasant, besides being very poor econ
omy There arc many vexations and annoy
ances which few renters escape, attending thelI
experiences as tenants Of other peoples houses
and tenemeuts, while the burdens Of taxation
for municipal purposes fall mainly upon th'
tenants as landlords charge the taxation i'm
posed for public improvement; on them to th'
rent roll, and 1t therefore comes out Of th'
pocket Of their tenants.
In house of his own, one fess not only
that he is less dependent than when occupying
a tenement belonging to another, but there is al
incentive to beautify home; to make it at
tractiye and thus add to its value, motiv,
not often present when man lives in a rsnte'
tenement
Frcm every point in view it is advisable 70
a man of family, when he has found perma
nent place Of residence, 20 determine to pro
vide home for those dependen; upon him
whether in town or in a country, this is ad
visable, and the reasons for it are SO obviou
that it is scarcely necessary to refer to them.

Old Letters.

Neves burn kindly-written letters |: Is 80
pleasant to read them over when the ink is
Drowned, the paper yellow With age, and the
hands that traced the friendly words are folded
over the hearts that prompted them, under
the green sod. Above all, never burn love
letters. 70 real them in after years is like
resurrection to ones youth The elderly spin
ster fnds 10 the impassoned offer she fOo.ishly
rejected twenty years ago, fountain Of re-
juvenescence. Glancing over it she realizes
that she was once belle and beauty, and
beholds her former self in mirror much more
congenial 30 her taste than the one that con-
fronts her in the dressing room. The widow
indeed derives sweet and solemn copsola-
ton from the letters Of the beloved one who
has journeyei before her 10 the isr-oif land from
which there comes no message, aud hence she
hopes, cue day, to join him. No photographs
can so gigidly recall to the memory Of the
mother tenderness and devotion Of the children
who have lef. ct the call Of Heaven, as the
epistolary outpoGriug of that love. The letter
Of true son or daughter to a true mother Is
something better than ain image Of the features I;
it is reflex Of the writer's soul. Keep all
loving Burn only the harsh ones, and
in burning them forgive aud forge. them.
