A HAPPY Hour -In a happy home there will be no fault finding, no over. bearing spirit-there will be no peevish iegs, no ftetfulness. Unkindnesg will hot be in the heart nor on the tongue. Oh, the tears, the sighs, the wasting of life, and health, and strength, and time -of all that is most to be desired in a happy home, occasioned merely by un - kind Words. .The.celebrated Mr ' W es ley remarkdd 'to this effect, namely That fretting and scolding seemei like tearing the flesh from the bones, and that we had no more right t9 be guilty of this than.w6 ha4dta curse; to styair, or steal. In a perfeely happy home all selfishness will be removed. Even as "Christ pleased not himself," the members of a happy home will not seek first to please tiemselves but to please others.

How the parent and child, the brot er and sister, the mistress an4 servant, dwell on those cheerful looks, - those ebnfiding smiles that 'heam from the eye, and burst from the inmost soul' of those who are near and dear.- How it hastens the return of the- father lightens the care of the mothier.'-rendors itmore easy for youth to resist temptation --and drawn by cords of affection, how it lnducesethem with loving heart to the parental roof~.
