on, aud young ladies dressed we'll on a

of the richest man in Boston were
dressed with scrupulous plainness, and
the wife and mother owned one brocade

shabby fine clothes have become a
necessity for the lesser lights. The

emulation, such vulgar strivings, nol
such soaring, foolish ambitions. The
men and women fell back on their own
minds for that entertainment which
they now seek in fast noises, yachts
great and constant change, journeys &c
Eurora and to Newport. Books took
the place of dress and display. Wher
a young lady was introduced INTO so
c'ely, one bouquet did duty for the

quite too few. There was a sober elo-
gan among even the first in position

We wish TO bring The influence OF

by children and young people, and the
pictures, statuaIy and dramatic repr =
sentatiDn that are placed before them,
so that temptations shall be diminished

The standard of the home is the best
and most reasonable. since the largest
pan of the average life is spent at
home, and whatever tends to bring 10
its bright sanctual the faint Of unclean

very heart of the peoples life. The
motto of those who work along these
lines is, I'VE come not To destroy. but
to fulfill; not 10 break down, but 10
build up We recognize the beauty
and the charm Of the intellectual and
artistic life. Our principle is set forth
in that familiar declaration of John

do we propose to let him have the Al
tractive books, amusements and picture
galleries, for these are all adjuncts OF "A

greatest numbers good and guarded for
their use and pleasure, rather than dis
regarded IN order that the publisher,
picture dealer and theatrical manager
may make larger profits. These men
have no patent on the beauty and
charm of genius and the world. The
home is the first claimant, and the home
makers propose. by organized and well
conducted work, to restore to their
children and young people all these
pleasant gardens of delighl with the
