Give Your Boys a Room.

We wish especially to urge upon mothers the propriety of giving up to the boys, as soon as they reach the age of twelve or fourteen, one room (not bed chamber), for whose Reasonably good order they should be responsible, and which they shall consider wholly their own. The floor shall be uncar- peted, of oiled wood; the furniture of the same material. Let it be papered, curtained, decorated, according to the boys own fancy, if the taste is bad, they will be interested after a while in cor- recting it. There should be plain book cases, a big, solid table in the center, by all means an open fire, and room af- ter that for Joe's Arinting press or Charley's box of tools or Sam's cabinet of minerals; for chess and checker boards, or any other game which is deemed proper. To this room the boys should be allowed to invite their friends, and learn to be hospitable hosts even to the extent of an innocent little feast now and then. Father, mother and sisters should refrain from entering it except as guests, and our word for it, they will be doubly honored and welcomed when they do come.-FTarna and Firestde.

LINCOLN'S HOME.
Impressions Made by a Visit to His Resi-
 dence in Springfield.

Impressions Made by a Visit to His Resi-
 dence in Springfield.
 To the country at large Springfield is distinguished as the home of Abraham Lincoln to an extent perhaps not fully realized by the residents of the grow ing capital. with it's ever new interests. And l was perhaps unreasOnably disap- pointed in not finding that sense of his personality that 1 expected. It is, in- deed, emphasized by statues in the cap itol and by the great mausoleum in the cemetery-an imposing structure, with an excellent statue in bronze, and four groups, relating to the civil war, of un- common merit. But this great monu- mental show does not satisfy the per- sonal longing of which I speak. Nor is the Lincoln residence much more satis- factory in this respect. The plain two- story wooden house has been presented to the State by his son Robert, and is in charge of a custodian. And although the parlor is made a showroom and full of memorials, there is no atmos- phere of the man about it. On Lincoln's departure for Washington the furniture was sold and the house rented, never to be again occupied by him. There is here nothing of that personal pres ence that clings to the Hermitage, to Marshtield, to Mount Vernon, to Monticello. Lincoln was given to the nation, and-a frequent occurrence in our uproOting business life-the home disappeared. Lincoln was honored and beloved in Springfield as a man, but perhaps some of the feeling toward him as party leader still fingers, although it has disappeared almost everywhere else in the country. Nowhere else was the personal partisanship hotter than in this city, and it is hardly to be expected that political foes in this generation should quite comprehend the elevation ot Lincoln, in the consenting opinion of the world, among the greatest charac- ters of all ages. 1t has happened to Lincoln that every year and more in- innate knowledge of his character have added to his fame and to the apprecia- tlon ot his moral grandeur. There is a natural desire to go to some spot pre- eminently sacred to his personality. This may be his birthplace At any rate, 1t IS likely that before many years Kentucky will be proud to distinguish in some way the spot where the life be- gan of the most illustrious man born in its borders.-CharZes Dudley Waruer, tas Harper's Magaziae.

 For cutting up, seek pardon" He smiled content; his brilliant words So pleased him that he could but show 1t: If Mrs Smith admired them less, Too wise was she to let him know it. "Your wit is keen," she slowly said,
 And yet fancy can match it; I, too am not like Washington.
 Because have no nice new hat yet" Next Sunday when to church they went His pocket and her heart were lighter; And dnow he ventures nothing bright Lest she should think of something brighter,
