"Something when you were a little ; boy," said Archie. Once when I wa9 a little boy," said Uncle Phil, "I asked my mother to let ? Roy and myself gooutand play by the ! river." "Was Roy your brother? asked f Rob. ! "No but he was very fond of playing with me. My mother said yes ; 90 we ' went and had a great deal of sport. * After awhile I took a shingle for a * boat and sailed it along the bank. At ' i - last it began to get into deep water, where I couldn't reach it with a stick. Tnen I told Roy to go and bring it to 1 me. He almost always did what I r told him, but this time he did not. I c began scolding him, and he ran to- J ward home. - - * . . , fi "Then I was hungry, l piCKeuupa | stone and threw it at him as hard as I ^ could." t "Oh, Uncle Phil !" cried Archie. "Just then Roy turned his head and it struck him." "Oh, Uncle Phil!" cried Rob. "Yes. He gave a little cry and lay down on the ground. "But I was still angry with him. I did not go to him, but waded into the water for my boat. "But it was deeper than I thought. Before I knew it 1 was in a strong current. I screamed as it carried me down the stream but no meu were near to help me. "But as I went down under the I deep waters, something took bold of me arid dragged me towards shore. It wa9 Roy. He saved my life." "Good fellow! Was he your cousin ?" : asked Rob. "No," replied Uncle Phil. ? "What did you say to him ?" asked Archie. "I put my arms around the dear fel- ? lew's neck and cried aud asked him to forgive me." , "What did he say ?" asked Bob. " 'He aaid 'Bow, wow, wow !' " I^T<rWhy, who was Roy, anyway?'" ; asked Archie, in great astonishment ' E~.r."He was my dog," said Uncle Phil j "the best dog I ever saw.

Teach them to cook and prepare bod for the household, and food vhich will not give them the dyspepsia mil ruin the health of those who eat t.

Teach them to spend within their . ncome; to keep their accounts, to { snow where their money Roes, and to t lave something to show for it. Teach them to wear a calico dress hat is paid for, with more comfort han a silk one for which they are still twing the merchant. Teach them how to purchase, and to ee that the amount of the bill tallies villi the purchase, and that the goods .re what they bought, and what they vere represented to be. Teach them that good health and a iright face is better than any cosmetic, nd that if they want fair complexions, lear skins and rosy cheeks, they should . .void tea, coffee, cocoa, and similiar Irugs, ami should dress loosely and , ake out-of-door exercise. Teach them good common sense, . elf-help, and industry, which will nake them independent and useful. Teach them that marrying a man without principle, conscience or reli- ( ion is like putting to sea without a ompass or chart or rudder. Teach them, if you can afTord it, tiubic, painting and other accomplish- i neuts, but insist on a certain amount ( f good reading daily. In reading I ;ood books there is education, devel- 2 ipment and often solace and comfort or weary, lonely hours. The woman i'ho does not read will be likely to gad | ,nd gossip and make mischief every vnere. reacn gins 10 mina meir owu >usiness, and to avoid gossiping as bey would an infectious disease. A r ;ossip has a perverted mind and an i mpty head. s Finally, teach them that matrimonial lappiness depends, not on wealth nor in appearance, but on good health, i ;ood manners, good principles and personal character. .Ilakine Coildrcii Happy. 1 The rearing of children is a subject ( vhich always has been and always will ( >e a source at much discussion. We hall never arrive of the point when he application of labeled rules will ( ueeteach day's experience ; but there rft f*n n nrn 1 rvi't n/)i rvlaa h'MaU f < \ tie gcuciai luui^tco n uii/ii uu^ui iv; :ive definite aim to our goveruinent. ?Ve assume that all good mothers wish ' heir children to be obedient, truthful, < ntelligent, but do all teach them to be lappy? Some may say: "This is too vasive a tning to be controlled, chil- < Iren are naturally happy." Thank jod, the dear little ones do start upon r ife's pathway with hearts ready to bsorb all the sunshine that comes to hem, and now Is the opportunity to uake their world so rich, so beautiful, t hat its rays may stream over into ma- ( ure life, and carry with it some of the i reshness and enthusiasm that gladlened childhood's days. No hardships >r trials can so paralyze the will or < nake existence such a treadmill that ife is not worth living. We believe 1 hat through the period of childhood he heart and intellect can be so trained ' md interests so multiplied that how- < iver dark the days may be which fol- i ow, the feeling will never come that it s not worth while striving. As to the )lan to be pursued in this education, ( ve would put first aud above all the orce of example. Let the home at nosphere be bright and cheerful, arid til disagreeable things kept in the back- 1 ground. This will far outweigh all 1 lesired teaching. Make your children ' eel that you regard ill temper and >eing cross very serious faults, and ( naking those about them happy the ight expression of a right spirit. The i :ultivation of love for animals is an mportant element iu a child's educaion. Nature in all its varied forms ihould be a daily lesson,and impressed , ipon the sensitive mind, will be ] hrough life a source of joy. Try to keep hem from looking upon their tasks as lisagreeable duties, aud encourage hem to feel that there isjrreat satisfac- i ion iu being useful. Children so rained are the ones who push forward ind make a career of usefulness and lonor. KindoeNN of the Denlb Angel. j TP ii! A nnnl/l rAA mVtnf ? >- ~ ii ?c wuiu ccc Yt uat uj'lllg UlCUIIb IU % ur beloved one, we would not weep. J ['here is a beautiful story of a boy vhose young sister was dying. He lad heard that if he could secure but a r ittle leaf from the tree of life, that . jrew in the garden of God, the illness tould be healej]. He set out to find he garden, and implore the angel seninel to let him have one leaf. The ? mgel asked the boy if he could promse that his sister should never be sick i iny more if his request was granted, ind that Hhe should never be unhappy, lor do wrong, nor be cold or hungry, 1 lor be treated harshly. The boy said le could not promise. Then the angel i pened the gate a little way, bidding he child to look into the garden for a ooraent. "Then, if you still wish it," aid the angel, "I will myself ask the 1 ting for a leaf from the tree of life to leal your sister." The child looked \ n, and after seeiDgall the wonderous >eauty and blessedness, he said softly o the angel. "I will not ask for the < eaf now. There is no place in all this * vorm so beautiful as that. There is * 10 friend so kind as the angel of Death, i wish he would take me, too." i _ r Work for tlie Children. Work for men and women is good ; ?ut work for children is better. Success in winning adults to the right vay is to be rejoiced over ; but success n winning children to a staud for the ight is a cause for greater rejoicing. ^ child has larger poenibilities than an d dult: and so far, there is more in him prospectively. A child has fewer draw- l tacks?from bad habits and the weakless which comes of successive failires?thau an adult has ; and, so far, here is more hope of his continuance u well-doing. These truths would eem undeniable; yet how many pas- I ors and preachers write ten sermons I md conduct ten prayer-meetings and f nake ten pastoral calls with the idea t f reaching and influencing some i ;rown person where they do one of these 3 hings with an eye to the children's i >enefit. But perhaps?perhaps?this t 3 oecHuse mey nee it is more than ten > imes as hard to reach an adult as a t :hild in religious things. There is 1 omething in that. ^ O * A workingman was urged by his smployer to do tome work on the Sab>ath day. The man courteously but * irmly declined to do it. ''Why," said he employer, "did notour Lord him- J elf say that 'the Sabbath was made or man?'" "Yes," replied the work- , ngman, "you are right; the Sabbath vas made for man, and is, therefore, I lot to be taken from man." | j\0 Dlltoi S 6 j State of South Carolina, j I County of Abbeville.
