pays earnest and prompt attention to meals,
and is seldom seen without something in
his mouth; be rolls contentedly in the ashes
Of the fire, and spends hours during these
tender years in toasting over the Goals little
strips of meat or fish impaled on twigs or
forke6 sticks; he becomes early known to all
the dogs in the village, and attaches him
self to some Invorite one or two Of them
which receive all the fresh bones and other
dainty morsels that he has to spare from day
to day. Gradually the spider.like arms and
legs grow stronger, and he begins to essay
murder with the bow and arrow, to initiate
the strut Of the warriors as they stalk from
lodge to lodge; he rolls himself up 10 sleep
every night in the snuggest and most con-
venient place he can find in the "teppoe,"
either at the feet of his parents or coiled NJ
with his relative.
The pappoose finds his own playthings
as rule, though his father occasionally un-
bends far enough to fashion his first bow
and arrow. He delights in playing ball,
out not IN catching it, as our boys do. II
is usually game similar to Skinny" when
played by the Indians. He delights, also,
in setting small s1ares for grouse, rabbits
ond waterfowl, and takes real honest boyish
satisfaction in robbing birds nests but
when the berry season arrives, then is he
happiest, and his cup of content runs over.
The slender neither limbs are fairly bowed
and groggy beneath the fruit-dlstended alb.
domen. AS the boys are never subjected to
bearing the burdens, and hardly ever put
upon their feet before they are two years
old, the sight Of bowed or knock knced legs
among them is very rare indeed but the
practice of setting the young girls at the
duty, mornings and evenings, of bringing
packs of wood and water, causes nearly all
of them 10 be inclined either out or in at

FREyCHY.

An amusing story is told of French
actor who went into the country to
study part. He was waiting at a
lonely station and thanking of his part,
when quite upconscieusly, he began to
act it in dumb show. French actors think
more of the pantomime OF play than
we do, and the comedian while waiting
for his train has gone through some of
the principal scenes of the new piece
an this way, quite ignorant that his ef-
forts had been watched with the keen
est interest by an attentive rustic sit
ting on box la a dark corner. When
the actor suspended his task, the rustic
rushed sp to him quite eagerly, asking
in anxious tones: "And the lovers,
Monsieur, were they united, and was
the villsin discevereds" "What do you
mean:' inquired the actor. ''Oh, Mon
sieur todd the story beautifully" "But
my good fellow, / have not spoken a
word" "Ah. Monsieur, could see it
all by your movements, and 1 know
Monsieur from the photographs in the
shop windows"

Novel Decoration.

Charles and Mary Lamb once spent
a week in decorative art applied to
the household" with o degree of sue
cess that many students OF that art
may we'll envy. A cat got imprisoned
in q garnet adjoining their apartment
in the Temple, and an opening was
made to liberate her. To their sur
prise, they found three or four unowned,
unoccupied garrets, desolate to the last
degree. AS Charles had suffered much
interruption when writing in their sit
ting-room, Mary suggested his moving
his writing-desk into one of these quiet
garrets. So the cobwebs were brushed
down, and the room made clean, though
certainly not very cheerful Charles
tried ii few hours. but it was 50 bare
and desolate he could not endure it,
and gave ii up.
Next day, during her brothers abb
sence, Mary had another look at the
situation, carried into the room some
bright pieces Of carpeting, and several
cheerful though not very valuable prints
that hung in the kitchen. Charles was
delighted, and forthwith the brother
and sister gave themselves up to the
decoration of the apartment Every
book in their library was ruthlessly
stripped Of its illustrations, whenever
it could be done without damage to the
text, and the walls of the new study
were fairly covered. Here was a set Of
pictures from Shakespeare, and some
where else another set from Ovid or
Milton. Mary lamented that twenty
four illustrations could not be taken
Ariosto, because the other side Of the
page was printed on. Scissors, pins
and paste-brush did the work. Frames
there were none. The room became a
great favorite with them and their
fr'snds. and was known as tie "print
room" Pity poor pussy could not have
known how much pleasure her tribula-
ton would lead to!

Ready Made.

No one can dispute the convenience
of ready-made articles; but they cost
more than do those which are made at
home. Many young man could sf-
ford to marry il he could find a wife
willing TO take the raw material of food
and clothing and work it up; for the
raw material costs just about half what
the made-up costs, and with such q
wife the young man could buy for two
just Is cheaply as for one, and have all
the margin OF home and happiness
thrown in, and more too, for there
would be constant accumulations Of one
sort or another in the course of years,
and constant savings if the young cou
pie arc thrifty and "torehanded.'
Ready-made food is as expensive as
ready-made clothing, Take, for exam
pie canned fruit. The same amount
Of money that will buy a gross OF cans
filled, will buy the cans and the fresh
fruit. With the cans once bought, the
only expenditure is for the fruit, and
so the cost of the cans is saved every
year, Bread and pies are no exception
10 this, Half the money paid for them
goes for the labor and profit of the bak-
er, and the other half for materials not
always by any means the best, For
those who can afford this extra expen-
diture, such luxuries do very well; but
those who want TO get all they can for
money invested cannot indulge largely
in ready-made articles of any descrip-
ton.

Sympathy With Children,

A parent should try to sympathize
with the various irregular growths of
a chids nature. Sensitiveness as TO
peculiarites Of dress is very strong
element, and it cannot be laughed
down. The late admirable Lydia Ma
ria Child said that she believed her
character had been permanently in-
jured by the laughter of her school
mates at q peculiar short-waisted gown
Which her mother made her wear TO
school. And very sensible mother
who would not allow her little daugh-
ter to wear hoop TO dancing school
when hoops were the fashion, said that
she was certain that by the mortifca'
ton she had caused her, and the I'M
due attention which had been given to
the subject, she had made love of dress
a passion with the child, On all these
questions certain wholesome inatten-
ton is perhaps tho best treatment, Try
TO allow your child to be as much like
his fellows as you can; and above all
things do not make him too splendid,
for that hurts his feelings moro than
anything and makes the other boys
laugh at him. The ragged jacket, the
poor shoes, the forlorn cap, the decd-
uous pantaloon which has shed tho
leaves of freshness--theso are not
laughed at; they do not move the youth
full soul TO ridicule. II Is a lovely trait
IN the character Of boyhood that pover-
W Is no disgrace. But q velvet jacket,

prettiness delights his mother suffer for
