to roost at that time." "Yes, aunty, but the old lien goes with them." A five-year old city boy told bis mother bow to make butter: "You just take a long stick with a cross at the end of it then you get a big tab and then you borrow a cow."

Dr. McElroy, of New York, was about to iriaary his fourth wife. "Who is to perlorm the ceremony asked a friend "I don't know," replied his daughter "I presume it's I)r. Spring, though. He generally marries father.

A little boy's grief upon being re fused permi.Hsion to attend a neighboring circus, was in part assuaged by the assurance trotn bis mother that if be would dry his tears lie might go up the street in tho afternoon and see bis fath er have '••.oth extracted.

A ir in which were a bright little inai ii and her mother, came rushing into Lhe Central depot the other day and there, engines were tooting hideously, backinen howling, and small boys of a dirty and fiendish «spect were nhouting "Morning napers!" Is it any wonder that the little girl cuddled up to her mother and inquired with terrl bio awe: "Mamma, is this hell drawing,

Promitkd hy Love.—One morning foi'nd little Dora busy at the ironing table, smoothing the towels and stock ings. "Isn't that hard work for the little •Cms?" I asked.

A look like sunshine came into her Trtcb as slio glaced toward her mother, who was rocking the baby. "It isn't bard work whon I do it for mamma," she said softly.

One of the bost political notes of the day occurred at Fairhaven, Vermont, the other Sunday. On returning home from church, little Freddie, who is about five years old, said to bis father: "Our minister is a Republican, ain't be pa?" "I hope so. my eon, but why do you think ho is?" "Jlecause, when he was pr.iying this morning, be said, 'Grant, our Heavenly Father.' If he had been a Dumocrat, be would have said, 'Greeley, our Heavenly Father.'

A larmer whose cribs were full of corn, was accustomed to pray that the wants of the needy might be supplied but when any one in needy circumstances asked for a little of bis corn, be said ho had none to spare. One day, after hearing his hither pray for tho poor and noedy, bis little son said to him: "Father, 1 wish I had your corn." "Why, my son, what coulu you do with it asked tho father. Tho child ropllod, "I would answer your prayers."

School-masters, as is well-known, liave a plnn of reversing question and Htid answer, with a view of making a matter quite cloar. This does not always work woll, judging by the follow•master fn pur' of tho earth consists, and was promptly answered, 'Land and water.' Varying tho question slightly, that the (act might be Impressed on the boy's mind, he ask* d, 'W ha t!.on, do li and water make?'to which came the Immodlute response, 'Mud.'" Good boy, that.

A very little girl who we personally know, had a habit of suddenly becoming "tired and sloepy" whenever her mint, with whom sho' livod, desired hor to do anything that was not to her taste. 6ne day her aunt said, "Come, Annie, I want you to come and have your faoo washed." "O," groaned Annie, "I am so tired and sleepy." And she dropped down in her little chair in very limp condition, and could not Ik easily moved, "Well," said her aunt, "no matter, then. I intended to put on your pretty new dress and take you to visit your cousin Alice, but you are too tired you need not go, I will go alone." "Oh! I didn't know that," cried Annie, "but I didn't say I was so dreffully tired. I only said was tired." !k you ever suddenly become tired when asked to help mamma?

HOUSEHOLD ECONOMY. There ean be no economy where the house is lelt to the arrraogement of servants, by a careless mistress. The tlrst essential In economical housekeeping, is personal supervision and Koaie personal labor on the part of the head of the household. Not a low families of intelligence and refinement are discharging their superfluous "help," and utilising the capacity of young lady daughters in doing fine ironing, chamberwork, dusting, making deserts, and supervising the arrangements of the table.

The difference is marked, not only In the direct weekly expenditure, but In the preservation of turniture and utensils, and in the greater beauty, order and cleanliness visible throughout the establishment.

Tho want of good servants Is a constant subject of complaint, but the remedy lies In the bands of ladles themselves. Let them set their daughters to work. Show Incompetency that they are no louger dependent upon it,, and train it to properly perform duties thnV require strength and muscle, but not the delicacy of perception, the correctness of judgment, and the flmness Of cultivation, which belong to an ahoirciher 51 iterant order of intelli
