There is but one way TO treat such

Courtesy to Children.

Most children are sensitive, and it is
wrong to wantonly wound their feelings by
censuring them too harshly for their faults.
Time cures great many things children
outgrow infrmities and faults, and if right
principles of action and feeling are instil-
led gently, constantly, wisely, the results
will ultimately appear. 1t is mere cruelty
to make the weak points of a child a source
of teasing and ridicule, as is often done in
schools and families. A mental inlirmity
should be treated as tenderly as bodily
deformity. A quick temper, IAN irritable
or timorous or teasing disposition, requires
far more tact and judicious management
than any mere physical infrmity. When
grown to maturity, our sensitive children
become the poets, musicians, artists, wri-
tiers, leaders Of their times. Help them,
too, with their tasks, which too many of
them seem hopeless. Def nitions are hard
to remember, the geography lesson is hard
to comprehend, and won't stay fixed in the
mind; history is dull and dead; arithme-
tic hopeless tangle of figures, and gram
mar more pulling than any possible CO.
nundrum. The little folks need help; they
need cheer and encouragement, and who
should be so ready, so willing, so able to
give as the parent?

The Blessing Of Good Wives.

| No compan on so valuable and safe cal
q man have as discreet and goodly wife
1t is her province and care to make hel
home neat AID attractive in appearance
genial, sweet, and healthy in atmosphere
! the place to which her husband shall
turn with glad and longing heart 1t is
her aim to be in person and manner SO en-
gazing, in spirits so fresh, in affection SO
genuine and true, and in thought so eev-
ated and pure, that he shall seek her com
panonsIlip with ever failing Zest and joy.
And it is by suci compauionship tina. d
sweet and refined woman moulds and fash
ions her husband to a grace and worth by
him attainable in no other way. Her deli
cate sensibility seizes upon, and uncQn-
sciously elevates his aesthetic nature. He
grows up towards her standard of good
taste. The purity OF her thought abashes
his vulgarity:' The gentleness Of spirit
Woos the slumbering nobility of his nature
to the forefront of life, and makes him
great in the strength of manly tenderness.
Her piety, more simple. trnsttul and stead
fast than his, sweetly holds him to truth,
to duty, and to God. Her grace Of manner
generally smooths away his masculine
roughness and angularity. A most mighty
wielder of the moral pruning knife is a jul
dicious wife. One by one eccentricities
and rudeness from the outer life, excres-
cences and vicious groWths from the inner
life are cut away, until the man, in char
acter and conduct, is rounded and COM
piete.

DIGNITY OF DEMEANoR.-Dign of
demeanor should characterize the bench in
it's intercourse with the bar. Chief Baron
Parker, though very honest and very
learned man, was a very undignifed Judge.
When he was delivering his opionon in the
course of Perrin VS.. Blake, he exclaimed,
in a loud tone, "Stare decisis,' - and gave
his desk SO severe rap with his knuckles
that the court rung again. Lord Camden
used frequently to sit in court in a tie wig,
and would garter up his stocking while the
counsel were the most strenuous in their
eloquence. Lord Glare, the Irish Chancel-
lor, had favorite dog that would often
follow him to the bench. One day, during
an argument of Mr.. Curran's his Lordship
stopped down and began to caress the dog,
Curran stopped short in the middle of a
sentence; the judge started. 81 beg par
don my Lord" said the advocate, sarcast-
ically, II thought your lordships had been
in consultation; but as you have been
pleased to resume your attention, allow
me to press upon your excellent understand
i1ys, that" etc.

BEHAvIoR.-Leigh Richmond gave the
following excellent advice to his daughter:
"Be cheerful, but not gigglers: be serious,
but not dull; be communicative, but not
forward; be kind but not servile. Beware
of silly thoughtless speeches; although you
may forget them others will not. Remem-
Der Gods eye is in. every company. Be-
ware of levity and familiarity with young
men; modest reserve without affectat1on
is the only safe path. Court and encour-
age conversation with those who are truly
serious and conversable. Do not 90 in
valuable company without endeavoring to
improve by the intercourse permitted to
you. Nothing is more unbecoming, when
one of company is engaged in profitable
conversation, than that another part should
be trifing, Cycling and talking compare
tive nonsense to each other.

told him the secret Bertha successfully
concealed from others. A self-made man
himself, with ample fortune to add to the
one Bertha already held, he laid no stress
upon money in thinking of a son-in-law.
Energy. industry, integrity, these were the
foundation stones of his own fortune, and
these were the qualities he desired in a
life companion for the child who was the
hope and pride of his old age.
| The closer ties were bound that drew
Raymond Thurston to him in business,
the more he honored and esteemed the
sterling worth of the man he once regarded
as a mere butterfly of fashion, enc Of
fashion s spoiled children. And learning
to respect his worth, he had also Termed
to love the frank, bright face, the clear,
ringing voice and the ever ready courtesy
.of the young clerk. 1t grew to be very
frequent occurrence for him to ask the
support of the strong, young arm when the
streets were slippery, and at the door to in
vite Raymond to dine, sure of beaming
look of pleasure from Bertha.
There came day after two years Of
faithful service. when Raymond was in
formed in the privacy of the counting room
that a junior partnership was his if he
would accept it. Some emotion checked
the utterance of Raymond's heartfelt graf
itude. He extended his hand to meet
cordial grasp, and hear:
eyes, yes. 1 know. And now if you
want to tell Bertha the news, you may
take a holiday"
''May tell her more?" May tell her 1
love her-that the one hope of my life is to
win her love in return?"
''You may tell her that have been your
most sincere friend and warmest we'll
wisher fo1 two years. You may tell her,"
and the old mans eyes twinkled, ''that
have looked upon you as a son, ever since
the day she met you driving an express
wagon?"
''And behaved like an angel?"
eyes, yes, Of course they always do.
There, get along with you. I'm busy. Take
my love to Bertha, if you are not overbur
dened with your own.''
And so-you know the rest. There was
a wedding, and Anabel gave the bride a
parure of diamonds and owned, when in a
burst of confidence Bertha told her the
whole story, that after all, Thurston's
pride was not so good in the end as Ray
mond's ''True Pride"

DON'T LOSE A MINUTE.-Keep busy.
The man who has nothing to do is the most
miserable of beings. II you have no regu-
lar work do chores as farmers do when it
rains too hard to work in the field. In oc-
cupation we forget our troubles, and get a
respite from sorrow. The man whose
mind and hands are busy finds no time to
weep and wall. If work is slack, spend
the time IN reading. No man ever knew
to much. The hardest students in the
world are the old men who know the m ost.
If you lack books, there are free or very
cheap libraries, at least in cities, at your
command. The man who does not acquire
some Item of useful information between
day-breal1 and bedtime must mournfully
say, with the Roman Emperor, II have
lost a day.

BE NEATLY Dung ladies. if they knew
how disgusting to men slovenliness is and
how attractive are displays of neatness and
taste, would array themselves in the sim
plicity and cleanliness of the lilies of the
field; or, if able to indulge in costly attire.
they would study the harmonious blending
of colors which nature exhibits in all he1
works. A girl Of good taste and habits Of
neatness can make more fascinating tot
let with shilling calico dress, a few cheap
ribbons and laces and such ornaments as
she can gather from the garden, than a

thousands, and has the jewelry and ward

THE most perilous hour of a person
life is when he is tempted to despond. The
man who loses his courage loses all; there
but it matters not how poor he may be,
how much pushed by circumstances, how
much deserted by friends, how much lost
to the world; if he only keeps his courage,
holds up his head, works on with his hands.
and in his unconquerable will determines
to be and to do what becomes man, all
Will be we'll. 1t is nothing outside of him
that kills; but what IS within, that makes
or unmakes.

INsINCERITY IN ASKING ADvICE.-No-
thing is less sincere than our manner of
asking and of giving advice. He who asks
advice would seem to have respectful de-
ference for the opinion of his friend; whilst
yet he only aims at getting his own ap-
proved of, and his friend responsible for
his conduct, On the other hand, he who
gives it, repays the confidence supposed to
be placed in him, by a seemingly disintel-
ested zeal, whilst he seldom means any
thing by the advice he gives but his own
interest Of reputation. L. ochefoacauzt.

Pennell, the inventor. has been so success
full IN canning cold berries and fruit that
the housekeeper generally will be glad to
learn how she does it. Taking the berries,
peas, beans or corn, she fills the jar, bottle
or tumbler, brimful of the raw lush and
perfectly sound fruit. She tLcn pours in
clear cold water to fill the interstlces,
screws on the cover or puts in the cork,
turns the vessel upside down, and that is
all. If by accident any of the fruit shows
signs of fermenting, it can be cooked in
the old way.

How TO WASH CALICo.-If a calico
dress is washed carlelessly, starched stiff,
summed a day OF two, and half ironed. it is
not very comely sight. But if quickly
dried in the shade, very thinly and evenly
starched, and ironed on the wrong side so
that it will not shine, it will look like new
dress for a long time. Many pretty blue
prints and cambrics fade when washed in
the usual way. If they are washed the
first time ill strong salt and water, Or wa
ter to which a little beef's gall is added
the color will be set so that they will al
