Spoiled Children.

Spoiled children are not the product
OF effete civilization. They have al
ways existed, literally since the be-
ginning of our race, for the first child
was Cain, and in the light of his subse-
auent career we cannot doubt that Eve
allowed the wonderful little creature
his own way in everything. Original
sin was then so new, 30 fresh, that the
baby had it in its undiluted potency,
and the young mother, most hapless of
women, never had mother of her
own to guide and instruct her. Other
instances of spoiled children could be
easily cited from the Scripture re-
eords-Jacob, his mothers darling, and
Absalom, the pride of Davii's heart,
coming at once to mind-but it is not
necessary to turn to the past, we have
the species always with us; perhaps in
our own homes may be found choice,
well-developed specimens. There are
rigid disciplinarians who believe that a
child should never be permitted to
have its own way, even when that way
Is good one, neither injurious to it.
self nor disagreeable to others. Were
theirs the universal rule originality
would be totally suppressed, and the
law of love become obsolete. Brought
mp in the frigid atmosphere of stern
ness and constant repression, child
may learn to behave with perfect pro-
priety, but it is none the less failure,
and pitiable one. The little ones are
entitled to loving care, to tender
caresses, and sweet words of endear-
ment. 1t is only when love becomes
injudiciously indulgent that the pro-
cess OF spelling begins. 1t is so pleas
ant and easy to give way to little ex-
actions, to laugh at the naughty vet
winsome actions, that the rosebud is
surrounded with prickly thorns, the
kittens sharp claws are grown before
we awaken to the fact that our own
precious darling is high private at
least, if not commanding officer in
the great army of erJantS gates. 1t
sounds better in French-the foreign

A Mothers Words.

when the elder children were round me
And needed my every care,
Noisy and rough with cloth-rent knees
And tumbled, wind-tossed hair,
! often thought when they we're grown
How free my life would be;
Then could rest, and they would work
And lift all care from me.
Bat now, my boy so bearded
hardly seem to know;
He's half-ashamed to kiss my cheek,
And afar in the world must go.
My girls, though loving in their way,
Have grown 30 very tall,
And seem so strange, l often sigh
And wish that they were small.
All mothers, when you are weary,
And the children seem to crowd,
When they seek you in their troubles,
Or their glad tones are too loud,
Think not OF that far future
When they may help you rest;
Enjoy the present happy days,
While they love mother best.

An Unhappy Match.

A dog and a cat were once married.
But they had lived in wedock only
little while when they began to scratch
and bite each other until all the dogs
and cats of the neighborhood felt scan
dalized. The cat was advised by some
of her friends, convened, we might say,
on the roof Of a neighboring woodhouse,
to sue for divorce in the law courts.
Three dogs were on the judges bench
Newfoundland, a shepherd dog, and
rat-terrier, but the Newfoundland pre-
sided. The case was called up. The
galleries we're crowded. 1t seemed that
the family difficulty arose about what
is the chief aim of life; the dog thought
the hunting of foxes, and the cat the
hunting of rats. While the trial was
| going on all the dogs and cats of the
community neglected their work, and
the foxes destroyed the chickens, and
the rats despoled the pantries. A
large amount Of correspondence be-
tween the two litigants was produced
and read. Private matters became pub
lie property. The daily papers had ex-
ira sale. The whole town laughed, and
was demolalized. Both cat and dog
were ruined in reputation. The jury,
made up of six dogs and six cats who
had not expressed any opinion on the
subject previously to the trial, were
charged by the great Newfoundland
that if they found the dog guilty they
must bring in a verdict for the cat; but
if, on the other hand, they found the
cat guilty, they must bring in verdict
for the dog. After being in room to-
gether, in which the jury fought like
cats and dogs, they brought in YER
dict that because of disparity in temper
and incompatibility of disposition, cats
and dogs ought never to be married.

keatpeSs in Girls.

Eeatness is good thing for girl,
and if she does not learn it when she is
young, she never will. 1t takes great
deal more neatness 10 make a girl look
well than it does to make boy look
passable. Not because boy, to start
with, is better looking than a girl, but
his clothes are of different sort, not so
many colors in them; and people don't
expect boy to look SO pretty as girl.
A girl that is not neatly dressed is
called sloven, and no one likes to look
at her. Her face may be pretty, and
her eyes bright, but if there is a spot of
dirt on her cheek, and her fingers
ends are black with ink, and her shoes
are not laced or buttoned up, and her
apron is dirty, and her collar is not but
toned, and her skirt is torn, she can not
be liked. Learn to be neat, and when
you have learned it, it will almost take
care of itself. -ETchange.

The Louisiana Lottery.

The income and outgo of the lottery
per annum are as follows: Face value
of tickets, twelve drawings, $2S ,000, 900;
total of prizes, twelve drawings, Sl4,-
767, 200. Remainder, representing gross
profits, $l3, 232,S00. l is doubtless
true that all tickets issued are not sold,
but this does not affect the dishonesty
of the general rate. So the unsold tick
cts are placed in the wheel with the
sold, and the company is the beneficiary
of the winnings upon them. The mean
ing of this is, that the company would
sell tickets to the value of S28 900, 900
and collect the same; generously refund
to a comparatively small number of
winners less than $l5,000,000, and APP
propriate to themselves more than 3d.

The Rights Of MinOrities.

This constitution of ours is, however,
the only charter of the rights of mi
norities. The rights therein secured are
in their nature like the right of owner.
ship of real estate. They cannot be
directly attacked. What are called the
rights of minorities in deliberative as
semblies are, like the right of any indi-
vidual in highway, subject at all times
to the control of the whole community.
Strictly speaking, they are, like the
the benefit of the minority, but solely
for the benefit of the whole. A few
examples will make this very clear, and
will show how many of the discussions
of the last two years were mere misuse
of terms. Among the most cherished
socalled rights of minorities is the
right of debate. But is that in any
sense right of minorites as such?
What is debate, and what is it for? 1t
is not merely display of the vocabu-
laries of orators. 1t is not a sacred
privilege of talk for no purpose. L. is
permitted solely to guide the whole as
sembly to right conclusions. Men Join
in debate, when they fulfil honestly its
mission, for the purpose of pointing
out the advantages of the thing pro-
posed or the objections which exist
against it. Debate is intended to throw
light on the subject from all directions,
so that there may be no decisions aris-
ing from the shadows. Now, what is
all this for? For the benefit of those
who in the result turn out to be the
fewer in number? By no manner of
means. All this light is thrown, not
TO enable the minority to prevent con-
clusions, but to enable the majority to
come to right conclusions. 1t hardly
needs more than this statement to show
that any right of debate which prevents
results by obstruction, instead of guild
ing TO correct results by enlightenment,
is perversion of honest purpose which
ought to receive condemnation and re-
pression.-Er Speaker Reed, in North
American Revieto.

with sigh of contrition we deplore our

cast in still more dishonest mold. And
it is to individuals who have been ex-
