They will learn with ve from the lips of parents what they deem it drudgery to study in books; und even if have the misfortune to be deprived of many educational advantigés they will grow up intelligent, if they enjoy in child- hood the privilege of listening daily to the conversation of intelligent people. We sometimes see parents who are the life of every company which they enter, dull, silent and uninteresting at home among their children. If they have not mentsl activity and mental stores sufficignt for both, let them first use what they Have for their own households.

It is urged that it is useless to leave forest trees standing by themselves when the bush is cut down. Doubtless, it is true that most varieties of forest trees will die or be up- rooted by high winds, when deprived of the shelter of companions. When such is the case, though the appearance of cer. tain townships proves that it is not slways A Necessary sequence, we have every inducement held out farmers to plant out saplings. If owners of dwell. ings or farms have not sufficient taste to beantify their own property, let the pub- lin at least endeavor to induce such men, by the hopes of pécunary compensation, to plant trees along the public roads. Let the countries or townships vote a bon- us to the planter for every tree which shall be set =:long the highway. and which shall be living ~uv three years after planting. If a tree survive its removal for three years, the chances are that it will grow to a large and handsome one. If we live ten years from to-day, such trees as are mow set out will do much to relieve the desolate appearance of too many of our landscapes; and to those who are living twenty years hence, and to our children, the appear- ance of the country will rival the arboreal beauty of old England.

The Lord's day is a good day in which to learn to love your neighbor as yourself, I do not think it is a great sin if your neighbor has his side door open on the Sabbath day for you to walk across the lawn and sit on his porch, and talk with him of things seemly. I think the Lord likes that. 1 do not think that if your household is more radiant, and your children wake up and say (as I never did) "Thank God it is Sunday!" I don't think that if you make it the best day of the week, and your children are good-natured and joyful, that they are any the worse. + I believe in letting ont the harness a little. I believe in making the holes for the buckle a little lower down. Let 'our Lord's day be a church day in the morn- ing, and a family day the rest of the time. I think that we overteach and overtax in the Sabbath school. I think that we are making the Lord's day laborious. I do. not think that we use Sunday enough to make the family finer, sweeter, more com- pact, more homogeneous, more social, and 80 more religious. I see many, many men who come to church stern and stiff. They would not for all the world ride in a car on a Sunday--no; nor go over the ferry on Sunday--no; nor do anything at home that made them agreeable--no! I do not hold up their way of keeping the Sabbath as a model. Sunday is a day of household love. Itisaday of family reunion.

You see I .wasn't on that train that got smashed and burned it all. I got out at a way station and was left, and when, after the accident, they found my over-¢oat and some cards which were in the pockets, they thought I had gone with the other poor passengers. The next thing to explain is why I didn't come straight back. I was nearly sick when I started away, and to tell the truth, the tears of sympathy in his 6wn eyes. Poor little thing!" He said to himself as he walked homeward through the deep- ening twilight, " what on earth will be- come of her!" and this question came to him much more forcibly when he feund her, two or three days afterward, sitting in mute despair with her lap full of trades- men's bills, and a look of perfect bewilder- ment on her pretty face. She rose to welcome him, dropping them in a minature snow-storm, and as he gathered them up again, she appealed to him in her childish way. "1 don't understand it at all," she said; "ever since that awful news came these bills have been coming in--what must I do with them!" John Leavencourt might have answer- ed " pay them," Lad not her next words put that straightforward remedy out of the question entirely. "I don't know what to do, I am sure," she continued; 'I've only got three pounds in the world, and--and--" She was going to break down here, but he in: terposed with a little assumption of au- thority which her childishness seemed 'to warrant. : "You mustn't worry over it, Mrs. Willington. I will look them over if you choose, and we will see what can be done. Really now, you know, you mustn't!" as a stifled sob came to his ears. And then he sat down to investigate the condition of poor Charlie's affairs, while Alice sat be- side him, her white forehead wrinkled up in a vain attempt to follow his rapid reck- oning, and her blue eyes brimming with tears which she would not let fall. It was just like thoughtless, careless, merry hearted Charlie to leave evorything in this way; John Leavencourt's face grew verygrave as he summed up the whole. Here were bills amounting to over seventy- five pounds, and there sat "Willington's widow" with three pounds with which to meet the demand! Here were bills for almost everything under the sun--things necessary, and things unnecessary--a bill for rent, s em for this, that and the other, | Feason I got left was because I fainted and John Leavencourt looked at the fair | dead away in the waiting-room.

Such perfect little suppers as they gave! Of course Charlie could not afford it, but Alice liked company and so did he--and to him she never looked prettier than when she sat opposite him doing the honors of the table with a funny little assumption of dignity, and making herself generally agreeable to his guests. Therefore, al- though some of his older friends advised him to live mote quietly, Charlie only shook his curly head and laughed in his boyish way. "I never borrow trouble," he said, " Allie likes it and so do I. What's the odds so long as you're happy!" and so he went on in the same careless way until a message from his uncle summoned him away to his death. They all r bered how hand he had looked on that last morning as he came in to say good-bye, his boyish face radiant with smiles, his yellow hair shin- ing in the sunlight. | "1 hate mortally to go," he had said, a shadow of vexation clouding his face for as moment, "but uncle Bob is my only relative, and I can't neglect him, you know." And then with a ned and a smile, he was gone, only to reappear at the door after a minute, with uplifted finger and a laughing caution--" Be sure and take good care of my wife!" ns Hime, Uiresids oe: ds. pH Xe » I 3 L 4 IL C.

At the appointed hours the beg- gars of the city all assembled, whereupon the officers caused each avenue of the pub- lic square to be closed, and then compelled the beggars to strip off their old clothes, and gave to each one, according to prom- ise, a now suit. In the old clothes thus collected enough money was found con- cealed to build a new bridge over the Arno, still called the Beggars' Bridge. A NEw hine for g ng ical force is attracting considerable atten- tion in Europe, in the form of an electro- atmospHeric gas engine. The invention originated with Father Barsanti, a Floren- tine. Syme years ago he started for Bel- gium for the purpose of having his model perfected, and died en route. Others then came into possession of his designs, and matured the invention, until. at length a working model has been produced. It consists of a perpendicular cylinder at the bottom of which sre two valves. Through one of these, common illuminating gas is admitted. and through the other about an equal quantity of atmospheric air. Then an electric spark is introduced by a fine wire, when a sudden and violent explo- sion takes place. These explosions con- stitute the power of the machine.

" Willington's widow." How strangely the words sounded! "Willington's widow." Inyoluntarily each one thought of the pret- ty child (for she was no more), who had been so full of life and gladness when they last saw her, and pictured her in the deso- lation and wretchedness which had come to her so suddenly. "She don't know anybody." said Regy Hartmann; "" poor little thing--and she hasn't any relations. What can she do!" "] don't believe she knows a woman in the whole town, but that old Gorgon next door," said another, decidedly. She was 0 shy at first and only wanted to know The days passed slowly by, and the sweet little mistress of Rose Cottage grew thin despite the kindness of Charlie's friends, for the shock of Charlie's death wore on her terribly; still she was quiet and uncomplaining, and earnestly thank- ful for every kindness that was shown her She never knew how deeply indebted she was to them all, but she appreciated and understood their friendliness. ' Scarcely a day passed without additional proofs of their g ity and kind and Alice accepted them all in the spirit in which they came, but still the same question | puzzled them all--*' what would become of | Willington's widow?" And suddenly a new trouble made its ap- adduced bring 'quite forcibly to view the rapidity with which a flock of sheep can be built up where there are no such vulgar drawbacks as 'diseases, dogs, death, ete. -- It appears from the evidence that Miss Susie Evans, of Banbridge, sues Curtiss Cooper, of Guilford, Connecticut, on a contract made fifteen years ago by which Mr. Cooper agreed to give Suie one 'ewe lamb and its increase until she was twenty- one years offage, in consideration of a gold watch kéy. The suit is brought to recover the sheep and its equivalent. The evidence showed that the natural increase of a flock of sheep would double every year. According to this estimate Miss Susie would have at the end of fifteen years 16,064 ewe lambs. wheel. In the matter of cost it is claimed that a considerable reduction can be effect- ed by the use of this principle, as compar- ed with an ordinary steam engine. The chamber of the model is about the diame- ter of a ten-pound gum, and it producesa six-horse power. To increase the power the cylinder will not be' enlarged, but the number increased, several cylinders being placed close together. The present model was constructed with capital furnished by an American gentleman, and it is probable that he will bring it to this country to have the invention perfected and patented. Aside from the consideration of cconomy, a great advantage is claimed for the new engine in the comparatively small space it will occupy. de iio
