Home. Sweet Home,


London Tid-Bits recently offered n
prize for the best definition of "home. "
Five thousand answers were sent in.
Here are some of the Oest
The golden setting in which the
brightest jewel is smother"
A world of strife shut out, world Of
love shut in.
An arbor which shades when the sun
shine of prosperity becomes too dazzling;
a harbor where the human bark finds
shelter in the time of adversely.
Home is the blossom of which heaven
is the fruit.
Home is a persons estate obtained
without injustice, kept without disquiet-
ude; a place where time is spent with
out repentance, and which is ruled by
justice, mercy and love.
A hive in which, like the industrious
bee, youth garners the sweets and mem
ories of life for age to mediate and feed
upon.
The best place for married man af-
ter business hours.
Home is the cosiest, kindliest, sweet
est place in all the world, the scene OF
our purest earthly joys and deepest sor-
rows.
The only spot on earth where the
faults and failings of fallen humanity are
hidden under the mantle of charity.
The place where the great are some.
times small, and the small often great.
The fathers kingdom, the children's
paradise, the mothers world.
The jewel casket containing most
precious of all jewels-domestic happi-
ness.
Where you are treated best and you
grumble most.
The center Of our affections, around
which our hearts best wishes twine.
A popular but paradoxical institution,
in which woman works in the absence oil
man and man rests in the presence Of
woman.
A working model of heaven, with real
angels in the forms of mothers and wives.

Vines On Walls.

In a recent report Of the Secretary OF
Agriculture 1t is asserted that the con.
mon notion that vines covering walls
tend to produce or promote damples' is
so far from being true that the contrary
is the case, such covered walls being
drier than those exposed. A moments
reflection would suggest that thicket
of leaves acts like a thatch, throwing oil
rain and keeping walls dry. They
also have the further effect Of prevent
ing walls from being heated by the sun,
50 that in case of dwellings where the
walls are covered during the summer the
rooms are perceptibly cooler in conse'
quence. The ivy in climates suited to
it, is probably the finest evergreen for
clinglng to and covering the walls, bat
the persistency of its foliage has been
objected to, inasmuch as it prevents the
sun from warming the walls during
clear days in winter. A vine which
possesses an abundance of foliage in
summer aud becomes deciducus in win
ter is therefore to be preferred, and the
best plant to meet these requirements is
the Japan ivy. This plant is nearly al
lied to the Virginia creeper, which
adorns aud enriches the wood with its
rich autumn columns.-New Orleans
Picayune.

A Wonderful Speaking Bira.

The nina, one of the Grackle species
of birds, found in tropical and sub-trop-
ical countries, excels all other animals in
its initiative powers, and particularly in
the imitation of human speech. When
domesticated, these birds far excel the
parrots, both in picking up the words
and speech of those by whom they are
surrounded, and the dlstinctness with
which they speak the words aud seu-
tences learned. So distinct, in fact, is
the utterance Of the nina, and Of some
species of parrots which most nearly ap-
proach it, that persons hearing them
speak at once look round for the human
being they believe to have addressed
them, and have some difficulty in real
izing that the voice was only that of
bird. A specimen Of the nina, or hill
nina, as it is called, may be seen at the
Geological Society's Gardens, Regents
Park, London. On its arrival it was
placed in the tortoise house. The hill
nina is a small bird, shining coal black
in color, with bright orange stripe
about its head, orange legs, and sharp,
salmon coiored bill, and can speak and
laugh in perfect imitation Of man, join
ing in most intelligently in conversation.

Children Can Make These Baskets.

Basket making, which used to be
practiced more or less in every village,
is now relegated almost entirely to ma
chinery; aud yet it is very easy, and
children even may become very expert
in its manipulation. Even the rudest
and most primitive of hand made bas-
kets make pretty present If filled with
moses aud growing ferns. At a water
ing place, this summer, clever woman
set some children at work on baskets for
A charitable fair which was on the
carpet and these baskets, filed in the
way already suggested, found a ready
sale, and brought in quite nice little
sum. Shoots of willow were used in
this instance. These were cut, soaked
in water, aud afterward peeled. Strong
pieces we're laid across each other and
woven together to make the bottom, the
ends having been left sufficiently long to
turn up when the foundation was large
enough to form the uprights for the
sides. Thinner strips were then woven
10 and out, thus forming thick wicker
work. The edges were formed by the
uprights or ribs being turn,d down and
woven In. This is the rudest kind oil
basket; but every one knows what
dainty things are woven out of bark aud
scented grasses. 1t is such pretty and
easy work that it would be popular
handicraft for idle summer hours if once
adopted by the busy bees of society. II
an Old basket Is taken apart and woven
together again it will give practical
knowledge of its construction which
would be better than any directions that
could be given. New York Tribune.
