Making Home Attractive.

Any accomplishment is worth Guilt
waiting that may help to make the home
attractive to husband and sons; but the
best requirements for this purpose are
no doubt moral rather than intellectual.
They are good temper and a habit of
looking on the bright side of things. A
cheerful temper, not occasionally, but
habitually cheerful, is quality which
no wise man would be willing to dispense
with in choosing wife. A good wife
is courteous, sweet and gentle in all her
dealings. She may be plain woman,
but she takes pains to be always fasci-
mating. Her first thought is-never to
disrrange, even for an instant, that
drapery of pleasantness which woman
should always wear. She knows that if
it is the duty of husband to make the
money, it is hers to make life ornament
al and charming for him. Her perpetual
aim is to give pleasure, to be agreeable
and to be amiable, and she succeeds in
making "a happy Preside Cline" which
lis the true pathos and sublimity of
human life. Exchange.

How to SpoiI a Child.

Begin young by giving him whatever
he cries for. Talk freely before the
child about his cleverness as incOmpara-
BILE. Tell him he is too much for you,
that you can do nothing with him. Have
divided counsels as between father and
mother. Let him learn to regard his
father as possessing unlimited power,
capricious and tyrannical, or as a mere
whipping machine. Let him learn (from
his fathers example) to despise his
mother. Do not know or care who his
companions may be. Let him read
whatever he likes. Let the child,
whether boy or girl, rove the streets in
the evening and let him have plenty of
money to spend. Chastise severely for
foible, and laugh at vice. These
rules are not untried. Many parents
have proved them with substantial
uniformity of results. If a faithful
observance of them does not spoil your
child, you will at least have the COM
Portable reflection that you have done
what you could.-McCall's Magazine.
