threadbare clothes, and looking as hard
as if he hadn't seen a sober day for a

it and handed the article to the pawn

And, boys, what do you suppose it was?

me ten cents for 'em-I want drink.

Choosing a Home.

There are a great many things to be
taken into account in choosing ones
home. Among these are questions of
health and Of educational, social and
religious opportunity.
AS to health, much depends upon the
quality of water, of soil, of drainage
and situation. In places where rain
falls stately or frequently, good water
can always be secured by building els
terms and by the use Of filters. If soils
are damp they may be drained, but this
involves a large bill of expense. Local
tiles where drainageis impossible or very
difficult are undesirable places, so far
forth, for homes. In chosen the site
OF ones house, respect should be had
to the winds prevailing in the locality,
and protection against these should be
sought. The house should be so situat-
ed that its drainage shall be easily and
nealthfully provided for, and that also
the outbuildings do not mar its appear
ance or annoy its inmates. AS far as
possible a southern exposure should be
sought and the house so arranged in
side that the sun shall have free access
to all the living and sleeping rooms, and
most access to those most constantly
and numerously inhabited. Rooms on
the north side of the house are tole~-
able in summer and sepulchral in
winter. The sunny side OF any hospital
is the healthful side, and SO of every
street and every house.
Where there are children, regard
should be had to opportunities for ed
ucating them suitably In this matter
more depends on the intellectual. social
and religious atmosphere of the COM
munity than upon any other one thing.
In many of the old New England towns
in the last generation the facilities for
education in the form of schools were
very few, but the children grew up I'M
der influences that were of the very
best and made most excellent men and
women. s
If one is dependent upon church
privileges for religious growth and en-
ioyment, it is matter of moment that
the home be within reach of such OPP
portunities of this sort as are congenial
and desirable.
Ii one is dependent upon the market
for supplies or for customers, nearness
to market is certainly to be sought.
However wise and careful one may be
in choosing a home, whether in city or
country, there will always be disad-
vantages to contend against. These,
when they can t be cured, must be en-
dured or ignored, and offset against
what is agreeable and desirable. The
bitter and sweet go together and are
mingled in every human life. IN. 7.
