Beautify Your Homes.

It is astonishing to see the lack Of
taste around many village and farm
houses; and their owners seem to think
that it is money thrown away to bsautify
their homes; but let them offer their
places for sale, and then they will xsal-
ize the difference between a house with
out paint, or with one coat in lifetime,
with no blinds, no pleasant door-yard,
no tasty fences around the house, no
shade trees, no fruit-trees,- no beds of
flowers, no vines climbing mp the porches,
no garden worthy of name, no snug, we'll
painted out-housss no nicely graveled
walks; but in their places we often find
a dwelling out of repair, out-houses in a
state of decay. fences in a poor condi-
ton, and the general appearance OF the
place repugnant to our feelings. We see
the old sign, This place for SALE" hang
ing on an old tree with barely leaf on
it, Here it has hung for many years,
and there it will continue to hang, prob
ably, till the owner goes into his grave.
Nobody wants to buy such a forlorn
looking home, and people in search OF a
country place pass on until they see an
other sign: "This place for sale;" and
here they find order, taste, and neatness
pre-ailing-a beautiful cottage OF rather
style of house, out.buildings in perfect
repair, fences neat and in good order,
shade trees abundant, fruit trees loaded
with good apples, plums and cherries.
In the well planned garden they find an
abundance of Strawberries, raspberrles,
currants, gooseberries, ounces, grapes;
and the place suits them, and they pur-
chase it. Now, this place costs but little
more than the one they passed, in regard
to its adornments. What was done to
beautify it was done by degrees, and the
expense was never felt rs amounting to
much; and 50 i always is with nsegls 1s
the right manner-Fdrmers Friend.

Let US be More Social.

dn order to increase the sum OF human
hsppipsss, We should cultivate kind and
fraternal feelings with one another. A
the life consists in something else than
simply accumulating property. We do
pot and cannot ''live by bread alone. "
ASwriter discourses on this subject most
sssutifully as follows:
6tghe sole object and aim OF too many
Il ,,Esividuals seems to be to get gain, ''grab
let; the consequences be what they
,nav to others. The desire to accumu-
la!e wealth, regardless of the comfort
aid social happiness Of our neighbors'
a;d the interchange Of friendly sonti-
mint, should be ignored, On the other
Ehd, we should SO live and act that the
esnerous impulses Of our own hearts
wsuld prompt us to extend the hand OF
ialowship to all Of our neishbors, and.
.leoking them squerely in the eye, feel
tbat glorious inward consciousness that
1had never wronged them in thought,
-Wbrd or show. Then, too, let little deeds
oslove be done; let the principles OF the
yslden rule be exemplifed in daily lives;
A. ms be more social, and cultivate our
ies,nrival qualities by frequent inter
e+ange Of friendly greetings at social
G{therings; let no aristccracy be ac-
anwledged save that OF the intellect;
.lk MS make them what they should be by
aerishiug love for the beautiful, so
sst
blessing5 may attend US forever;
Skpd whatever we may pray for or do,
Nav our lives be one grand endeavor
S&To type the pnre, the good and the true!

According to the above table, cucum-
bers are of very little value, and apples,
cabbage, turnips, and even potatoes, at
the present prices, are expensive eating.
Some vegetables and fruits should, how
ever, enter into family consumption, even
if purchased for sanitary reasons. Among
those which contain the most saccharine
matter, sweet potatoes, parsnips, bests
and carrots are the most nourishing.
Roast pork, besides being as expensive
dish, requires too lengthy 'daain upon tn.

Late Marriages.

It is to be deplored that our young
people are reluctant to marry because
they cannot at once set up expensive or
stylish housekeeping. Late marriages
are becoming so largely characteristic of
social life on these false and selfish
gp}ands of social economy, that society
as whole, and religious life in particu-
lar, are seriously damaged. If a man
has gained position that enables him
to marry with ordinary prudence, let
him marry, and let not the prudence be
pressed too hard; young love, if true and
godly, will make early struggle wholesome
and Joyous. If he has found woman
who will make happy, LET him take her
to a modest home, the loving wife of his
youth. His life and his fortunes will be
better for it
