What Every House Needs.

One of the very worst faults of our very
faulty modern architecture, as applied to
houses, is found in the fact that our archi-
tects do not take into their plans the posi-
bilities of sickness in the family. Now, no
house is properly constructed that has not in
it a room or rooms expressly designed for
the accommodation of the infrm and the
sick This room should, in the first place,
have warm, sunny exposure The window
light should be ample and command the
widest possible view. The first essential in
sick-room is a good, liberal fireplace.
Through it, and by means of the warmth
which it generates, the whole room is kept,
in its atmospheric conditions, wholesome
and pure. Not only so, but slow-burning
fire, with its lights and shades, its rising
sparks and glowing brands, its curling and
manycolored smoke and its changeful en-
Der, furnishes ceaseless diversion TO the sick
one who lies watching it. Nothing is more
soothing and quietng than the influence
which subtly steals into the senses of him
who gazes dreamily into the gentle fame
1t is companonship in itself. The walls,
too, should have their proper adornment
Pictures that suggest quiet and peace, and
the free, fresh life of nature outside should
be on'them. A bracket with its vase of
flowers; green clambering vine, clinging
ambitiously to the ceiling; library case
filled with familiar books curtains that
soften the light while admitting it--all
these are helpful to one that lies in weak
ness and can take no more of life than the
little room reveals. Better still, if Just out
side the window stands a tree, with the
branches so placed that the leaves of some
almost sweep the pane. How much the
sight of twigs, buds and leaves, stirred by
the winds and fecked with the bright CLEANS
of the sun, can cheer the mind OF one who
lies upon the pillow idly looking at them.
The central thought expressed in we'll
constructed sick-room is diversion. The
object of its construction and location should
be to give perfect accommodation and pro-
lection to the invalid, while at the same
time it suggests the beauty and freedom of
being unconfned-the life and animation of
the great outdoor world beyond.-Goid

BE Tender to the Children.

Solomon may slip in with his cruel maxim
of " Spare the rod, and spoil the child = he
has no business about my place while my
children are tender. I can no more be hard
on them than Jesus could If | hurt them
in this evil way, hurt those who are of the
kingdom of heaven. My gray hairs have
brought me this wisdom (and woe is me, |
should be so wise y that the objectionable
sin is to be hard on tender child. ! do not
know whether God forgives me; know
do not forgive myself They forget, hope
do not forget. No cut of the hand or the
tongue ever fell from true father on such
a child, that failed to ache forever in the
heart of the giver and no such thing was
ever done which was not a damage all round
do not wonder the old grandsire is so gen
tie with the second generation. He will not
tell you, or himself, perhaps, how it is that
he is so tender with these new buds on the
tree of life. He is trying to make it up to
them poor man, it is all he can do now
He would fain recall some passages in his
fatherhood. but that cannot be done; and so
he chokes back the inextinguishable regret,
and humbly tries to get even through the
over-measure. Now, we always walk softly
if we do not know our way, and that way
lies through great shadows; and here is
We know what the machine can do; we
have no such knowledge of the child. My
boy may have faculty in possession of his
nature, which in thirty years will be a bene-
diction to the human family; but to-day,
through the overplus of its power compared
with his other powers and his knowledge of
the world he lives in, it may look like vice
to me, and may grow to be vice, If | do
not say, "The child is tender, will lead on
softly" | will suppose he is born with an
overplus of imagination, so that things APP
pear to him as realities which have no ex-
istence except as the magic light of that
imagination has thrown picture against
the white surface of his world. And so
suddenly discover, as | imagine, that he is
lying right and lett and then he gets, not
a gentle guidance through which he can
find the line at last between thoughts and
things but first stern warning, and then
what ! call good sound whipping. Many
a minister has logged his boy for this turn,
when he ought to have logged himself like
one of the old hermits. Here is case in
which they are alike but with difference.
The sire has been drawing on his magma
ton, time out of mind, for the matter of his
sermons. The son has come honestly by
the faculty, but he is not shrewd enough to
see how far he can 60 without being found
out. The rein lies on the neck of his power
as yet, and so it carries him whittier it will /;
and then perhaps the father even prays for
him at the family altar as if he were a son
of perdition, and helps to make him one
through such prayers. Gently" | would
say-to such man, "turn the lash the other
way pray for insight and foresight; this
may be d rare gift you do not understand.

Sleep and Dreams.

DIR. Mary j. Stafford Blake read paper
upon Sleep and Dreams" at Lasell Semi
nary for Young Women, Auburndale, re-
Gently. She spoke of there being moments
Of repose even in action, for the heart, the
lungs and the muscles of the body But
during wakefulness the brain has no perfect
repose. Now that it is quite universally
acknowledged that different parts of the
brain have different functions assigned
them, we can readily see that there would
be change of activity and in this change
relaxation II not perfect rest, to which is
due the integrity of this organ. The phe-
nomenon OF sleep, from a physical point of
view, was then considered. The influence
of sleep upon the brain has been carefully
observed in cases in which fracture of the
skull has left portions of the brain exposed
10 view. Continued loss of sleep undermines
the nervous system. Peevishness, restless
ness, annoyanoes at trifles, dependency and
even insanity may follow as the result OF
sleeplessness. The sleep of health is I'M
broken repose. Sleep is generally more pro-
found and restful in the early part of the
night, hence one of the advantages of early
to bed" One-third of life on an average is
Spent in sleep, profitably and necessarily
so. Great wrong is done young and growing
children by not allowing them TO have all
the sleep their system requires.-Selected.

Honesty Rewarded.

George and Harry worked in the same
shop; but as the working-season was almost
over, and there would be little work to do
during the summer months their employer
informed them, as they settled up on Satur-
day evening, that he could only give one of
them work hereafter. He was very sorry,
he said but it was the best he could do.
He told them both to come back on Monday
morning, and that he would then decide on
the one he wished TO remain So the young
men returned to their clearinghouse good
deal cast down; for work was scarce, neither
knew where he could obtain situation if
he were the one to leave.
That evening, as they counted over their
weeks wages, Harry said to his friend
"Mr. Wilson has paid me quarter OF a
dollar too much"
$50 he has me" said George, as he looked
at his.
How could he have made the mistake ?"
said Harry.
"Oh he was very busy when six O'Clock
came and, handling so much money, he
was careless when he came to pay our
trihe," said George, as he stuffed his into
his pocket-book.
"Well," said Harry, Z" | am going to stop
as 90 to the postofice, and hand it TO him"
"You are wonderful particular about
quarter" said George. "What does he care
for that trihe Why, he would not come
TO the door for it if he knew what you
wanted; and | am sure you worked hard
enough TO earn it,"
But Harry called, and handed his en-
ployer the money, who thanked him for re-
turning it, and went into the house. Mr..
Wilson had paid each of them quarter
more than their wages on purpose TO test
their honesty.
So when Monday morning came, he seemed
to have no difficulty in determining which
one he would keep. lie chose Harry, and
intrusted the shop to his care for several
months when he was away on business, and
was so well pleased with his management,
that, when work commenced in the fall, he
gave him the position of superintendent.
Five years afterwards, Harry was Mr.. viii
sons partner George worked in the same
shop again, but as a common laborer.
There is nothing like good character
when you want employment Some young
men can always get work, no matter how
duh the times are; while others car find
nothing TO do when hands are scarce, sim
ply because they can not be trusted.-Kmd

lieu OF faithless parents bS which he had

Looking at this little waif, the merchant
in the store promptly said, "Can't take
him places all full. Besides, he's too SMALL
:" | know he's small" says the woman
"but he is willing and faithful"
There was twinkle in the boys eyes
which made the merchant think again. A
partner in the firm volunteered the remark
that he did not see what they wanted of such
boy he wasn't bigger than pint of cider.
But after consultation the boy was set
to work.
A few days later call was made on the boys
in the store for some one to stay all night.
The prompt response of the little fellow CON
trasted well with the reluctance of the 9th
ers. In the middle of the night the 1ner-
chant looked in to see If all was right in
the store, and presently discovered his youth

show of wild beasts passed through the
streets, and very naturally all hands in the
store rushed to witness the spectacle. A
thief saw his opportunity, and entered in
the rear door 10 seize something, but in a
twinkle found himself cutched by the di
minutive clerk aforesaid, and after a severe
struggle captured. Not only was robbery
prevented, but valuable articles stolen from
other stores were recovered. When asked
by the merchant why he stayed behind to
watch when all the others quit their work
the reply was, a. You told me never to leave
the store when others were absent, and

Double that boys wages; he is willing
