RELATED.

A single huttcrcup I found,
\ star upon my weary way,
As summer closed her heated rouRA
And ushcred in the autumn day.
A little memory of May,
That slept too late, "a / nave done,
And so unknOwng gone a-tray,
And now stood lonely in the sun.
1t seemed with anxious look to ask:
Are all my br ght companions dead2
Or have | slept, forgetting task,
Until the lovely May has sped?
"There waves around me autumn grain;
see the ripened apples SHINE;
] feel the patter or the rain;
l see the grapes that blush with wine.
" Ay, yes, slept ! sweeTly dreamed
OF babbling brook and azure sky,
And in my foolish fancy deemed
That flowers like me would never die.
"From such q dream why should wake,
Afar aud I'm another zone
Wake only that the heart may break
To find myself alone, alone!"
And this il is to live too long,
To ONerpass our proper time,
And hear, instead Of merry song,
The tells of death in solemn chime
So, too, with man: youth slept away,
He wakes to find a useless age,
And YEARLY from day to day
Dra2s out an aimless pilgrimage.

Atmosphere OF the Table.

1t is impossible to estimate properly
the immense influence which is eXerted
upon household by the atmosphere of
the family table. If it is true that one
does not come out of room the same
person he went in, the mind ever after
retaining the impress of what affected
it there. what great results must be
achieved from the meeting three times
a day in the dlning-rOom, from the con-
versation INDUCED in, and the senti-
ments expressed there. A neat, we'll
ordered table is in itself a lesson to the
children.
have noticed that a sensitive child
almost invariably has better manners
when dres sed in his best, and have seen
with surprise the effect produced upon
a certain small boy of my acquaintance
by handsomely ladies who are
polite to him. To the inviting table,
where there should always be some
thing attractive, however simple the
meal may be, most children will come
prepared to behave properly. 1t is
really worth while, and, when philo-
sophically considered, is a matter of
great Importance to lay aside as far as
possible all thoughts of hard work done
before and to be done after the meal,
and to allow no veXatious questions to
be discussed at the time. The habit of
brOoding over our work, and exhaust
ing ourselves by going all over it in our
minds, is one to be studiously avoided.
There is nothing that takes from ones
energy more than this, and it is a fire.
quent cause of insanity.
Everybody knows that food digestS
better when in agreeable company. 1t
was something more than pleasantly
which made a friend remark that ho
could not have his wife and child pass
the summer away from him as it gave
him the dyspepsia. The poor child
who comes to grief at the table, and is
sent away from it with his dinner
half eaten, and who suffers the whole
afternoon with an undigested lump of
food in his stomach, is to be pitied, and
it is wise plan to explain to the chill
dren that in this way they will be pun
is he'd for bad conduct at the table.
1t follows, then, that pleasant sur
prses in the way of preparing favorite
dishes, that good taste and much pains,
taking in arranging all the appoint
mentS of the table and dining-rOom,
rise above mere ministering to the an
imal existence, and affect the fine issues
of life. Good behavior and cheerful
ness ought to accompany each meal as
naturally and unwayeringly as bread
and butter. The happy laughter which
distributes nervous force, and calls the
blood from the brain, allowing the
stomach to get q share, should be heard
more frequently at our tables. No one
should feel at liberty to say one word
that is not kind and thoughtful, any
more than he would withhold a suf-
ticient quantity of food. These facts
need more careful consideration than
they usually receive.
