This is trying business season, but
those who fight through it will find it
will eventually work to their advantage,
as they will necessarily learn some very
useful lessons. He that can weather the
storm when the sea is rough, need not
tsar when the breakers are passed and all
is straight and smooth sailing. Any one
can float with the tide, but it takes a
brave and skillful mariner to stem the
adverse current when the wind and
waves are contrary.

II you wish the greatest return from
your investments surround your. chill
dren when at home with objects and in
fuences which will make their minds
best able to enjoy and expand under the
teachings of the public instructor. II
they see you surround the home with
| beautiful things because you love them
they will do so too. If they see your
garden arranged for beauty as well as
| utility, while all over the homestead stern
economy leads to reverential love Of ma
ture, and to sense that the qualification
of the eye aud the mind is quite as i'm
portant as the qualification Of the appe-
tite, they will grow up with liberal, gen
erous feelings and opinions; they will be
| men and women who have the best in
est Of the age at heart.
