CHILDREN AT HoME.-Nothing concern.
ing the future welfare and happiness of the
young is so neglected by parents and guar
dians as the manner in which their evenings
are passed. Darkness is temptation to evil
and allowing young men and boys to be ab'
sent from home when the light Of day does
not restrain them from misconduct, is in re
ality training them to it, and will in the fu-
ture often be productive of incalculable mis-
chief and ruin. In the family circle, howev'
er, something more is needed than the mere
command, and parents should endeavor by
their own example to show the Importance Of
making the evening hours the happiest in the
day, for if heads of households do not &C.
knowledge the truth of the proverb, "there is
no place like home," how can they expect
their children to believe in it? Evening
amusements and recreations in the home par

ant than enjoyment or dissipations abroad ;
and honorable and learned men are the pro.
duct of the one, while miserable dissipated
specimens of the human race are fruit of the
other. Let home be the delightful place it
should be, and let the same destinations and
inducements be offered at the homestead as
abroad, and more exalted andscreditable
class of citizens will be found-E1.

"I'll burn them down this very afternoon"
was the boys reply.
Another week went by, and the farmer
called his son and showed him how the cater
pillars had not only enclosed the entire limb,
but even begun to work on another limb.
"Therell be no fruit on that branch this
year, my son." said the farmer, calmly,
"your industrious little friends have eaten
every leaf"
And observing that his sons face was red
with shame, the father thus continued
II shall not regret the loss of the beautiful

SECRET OF ECONOMICAL MANAGEMENT
Says Alexander Hyde, in the New York
Times: "We see so many farmers working
hard from the beginning of the year to its
end, and that year after year, till life ends,
with such small results, that we do wish to
impress upon the community the true princi'
pie of econonomy farmers wife once ex.
pressed to us in one word-calculation. We
found her slender looking woman, surround
ed by flock of children, and having the
care of dairy, dozen COWS, with no Bridget
to assist her, and still everything moved on
like clock work. The children we're tidy, the
house neat, the cooking nice, and the butter
of gilt-edge quality. We watched her to
study the secreto her economical manage
ment. She never seemed to be in hurry,
certainly never in fret, but went from one
thing to another as calmly and pleasantly as
the butterfly goes from one flower to another.
We noticed that she had every convenience
for her work. Water flowed constantly in
her kitchen and dairy.room, and her churn'
ing was done by dog power. We we're salts
fed, however, that the secret of her efficiency
was not in churns, dogs, water nor any other
convenience for labor, and we finally asked !:
How do you accomplish all your work with
such apparent e?' With toss of her
head and pleasant smile she replied: "By
calculation. Before get up in the morning
l think over the labors Of the day and plan
everything out, assigning each duty its time,
and when the time comes attend to the
duty-and now the time has come for me to
skim my milk, so please excuse me- Upon
this she bowed herself out with the grace of
queen. We could not not hel p thinking,
happy is the farmer that has such help
meet"
