Importance.
of Music.

Have you ever seriously considered how
much is wanting in your home if there is not a
Piano there ? Have you not overlooked the
plain certainty that music is an educator, is
source Of refinement and recreation for every
member of the family? In delaying the pur-
chase of Piano, do you not think that you
are unnecessarily cramping the social instincts
that mean SO much in making home happy
and contented?
Is it possible to overrate the Importance
of having music at command We know it
isn't. The other day well-to-do Newarker
who was buying Grand Piano. having traded
to US an Upright he bought many years ago.
said to us: One of the best investments |
ever made was that old Piano. bought it
while could yet scarcely afford to have one,
but it has helped in no small measure to make
the atmosphere of my home sociable and re-
fined. 1t has made good musicians of all my
daughters, which might not have been possible

1uE ROCKING CHAIR.

What would they do without it
That creaky old rocking-chair.
That stands in the nursery corner!
. It's a treasure they couldn't spare.
FOR. excepting when mamma is rocking
The baby, who thinks it fun
Why, it isn't chair; it's dozen
A score of things all in one.
It's coy family carriage,
With lamps and with trappings brave,
And little Johnny'S the driver,
And Willy the footman grave.
It's steam-car, going to Boston,
Under management somewhat queer
Tor WHY'S the small conductor,
And Johnny's the engineer.
It's a ferry boat, crossing the river
On a dreadfully foggy day,
With tootings through paper trumpets,
And collisions upon the way.
It's a steamer sailing the ocean,
hundred miles from land,
And Johnny's the mate, with a spyglass,
And Willy is in command.
it's galloping-horse. Would you think 1t ?
1t has been big balloon,
A-1oating so lightly and gayly,
Way up to the sun and moon.
And the dreadfully creaky condition
That old rocking-chair is in,
Is because of the wonderful journeys
And the manifold things it's been!
Emma A. Opper, in Golden Days.
