A Little Fun at Home.

Do not be afraid of little fun at home,
good people. Do not shut up your house
lest the sun should fade your carpets and
your hearts. lest laugh should shake
down lew OF the musty old cobwebs that
are hanging there. If you want TO ruin
your sons. let them think that all mirth
and social enjoyment must be left at the
threshold without when they come home
at night. When once home is regarded
as only place to eat. drink and sleep in,
the work is begun that ends in gambling
houses and reckless degradation. Young
people must have fun and relaxation some
where; if they do not find it at their own
hearthstone. they will seek it at other and
less profitable places. Therefore let the
fire burn brightly in winter and let the
doors and windows be cheerfully thrown
open in summer, and make the homestead
delightful with all these little arts that
parents so well understand. Do not re
press the bouyant spirits of your children
Half an hour of merriment within doors
