A Chapter of "Don't' for Parents.
1. Don't forget that you hteuglat your
children into the world witbont their ImeW-
ledge er eensent. You bawelle right tO eln•
bitter the life you have thus thrust upon
them. I have known parents to melte ale
solute slaves a their children, eeneeellbag
almost constant atteuclance, under the
popular delusion that young limbs are
never tired; and like the old slave -master,
giving nothing in return but food and
clothes.
Don't laugh st and deride your children's
hobbies. IteMember how much brighter
life has seemed to you, whee you could re
alize some cherished drew, aud treat them
accordingly.
3. Dou't forget that youth needs amuse-
ment, Your children have not nnly bodies
but minds. Reit for the body and amuse•
ment for the mind, are demands otnature
which too many parents ignore. If you do
not provide or your childreu healthful and
sufficient amusement, than thank Ged for
His mercy on you, if your Children do not
take to dangerous or wickedpleasures when
they are older,
4, Don't forget that yonr children o.ee
beginning life'while you, perhape, are end-
ingit. Give them the benefit of your ex-
perience, but don't expect thatarour experi-
ence will serve them in place of an experi-
ence of their own.
5. Don't be impatient with your children
when they doubt your estimate of , the
world's allurements. Remember it is you
who have tested these things, not they.
You did not see with your tether's eyes,
neither should you expect your children to
see with your eyes
_ 6. Don't demand ' respect of your
children, or endeavor to enforce it by your
authority. Respeot is paid not to those
who demand, but to those who deserve it.
7. Don't neglect your children's friends.
Lnvite them to yoUr house. Showyour
childrenthat their friends are your friends,
and your children's friends will be such as
you ,will approve.
8. Don't be jealous of your children's
friend's. If you make your society delight-
ful to your children, they will always pre-
fer you to any other. Rompanion. .11 your
child prefers everyone else to you, stop and
ponder whether you have not compelled
hirn to seek elsewhere the companionship,
love and sympathy he ought to have found
in you.
9. Don't be afraid. tolet your children
see your love for them. Let a child feel
that no matter where he goes, or what he
does • no matter whether friends forsake or
foes sander him, his patents' love and trust
will always follow labia—and that child is
not only safe for all time, but the thought
of this love will shine out like a lelnp in a
dark place, cheering and strengthening him
against all odds.
]O. Don'tforget that the great Father of
all has had infinite trouble with you. You
have been just as refractory, migrate-
ful and disobedient as any child you have.
Let this thought temper your anger, and
make you wise to direct a complex human
soul.
Home Decoration.
NeVer hang a picture so that it will be
necessary to mount a step -ladder to view it.
Hang it so that the center will be about five
feet and a half from the floor, a little below
the line Of vision of it person of average
height.
Never select furniture whose "means of
support" do not appear adequate. Chairs
with spindle legs inclined too far inward or
outward have apparent tendency toward
disruption, and are constant terrors to call.
er& Straight, substantial lege suggest
strength and inspire confidence.
Never treat a hallway as thonah it Were
deoryard and no part of the house proper.
A hall should be inviting and hold out to
the visitor a promise of the beauty of the
inner rooms.
Never put a piece of furniture in a ',room

merely because it is pretty and will fill up.
Every article should have its real or appar-
ent use as a general thing the neceasary
pieces will occupy all the space that should
be allotted to furniture.
Never permit a white men‘l to disfigure
an otherwise taeteful room. Cover it with
a draped mantle board. White marble has
a suggestiontof cemeteries about it, It always
looks crude in a drawing room, even in the

Never forget, that an open fire and judi-

Never put paper on the walls of a nursery,
it is better either to paint or kalsoznine.
There is always danger of poiEtoning in the
coloring of the paper or of the paste becom-
ing sour.
Never have a drawing room so filled with
frail and delicate bric-a-brao that tho mast
movement is fraught with danger of costly
and wholesale breakage. This does not
conduce to ease.
Never have dark carpet and walls in a
mom that is deficient in light. Onlv apart-
ments open to outer light will stand -gloomy
tones in decoration.
Never use an inordinately large mirror with
a bulbous gilt frame, planned with the evi-
dent purpose of getting rid of as much gold
leaf as possible. Small beveled glasses in
cosnces or framed in rich plush of color har-
monizing with that of the wall paper are in
better taste.
Never hang a picture from onenail. Aside
from the mere question of safety, the use of
two nails, the cords stretched acroes them
so as to come down square to the corners of
the frame, has it symmetrical effect and
makes the walls look very much more fin-
ished.
Never have a carpet patterned with gi-
gantic roses or other actual flowers. They
harmonize with nothing. The colors in a
carpet shonld, in it great measure, complete
the color scheme adopted for the room.
Never place a picture or a piece of decor-

Now this is holding the mirror up to na-

Treating.
Nothing can possibly be said in
defence of "treating." It is essen-
tially irrational and it almost neces-
sarily issues in drunkenness. The folly
of it has often been exposed, but it goes on
all the the same. "Have a drinkie," says
one seasoned toper to another or to &green-
horn, and once started, who shall say when
they will stop? It never could be thought
of with any thing but intoxicating drinks.
But why? There is no reason why. A
writer in the New York World put the
case in a very inteligible and humorous way:
If we Americans treat each other to en-
tirely superfluous drinks, why not to
groceries, articles of clothing, mutton chops
and hardware? I wonder how it would
work in the way of medicine. I go into
a drug store for it quinine pilL I rneet there
my friend Lucian Van Bumblebnrg, who is
in search of a porous plaster. Lucian insists
upon my taking a pill with him. I do so.
Lucian must then take another plaster with
me. He does so. In comes .Freddie de
Boyeter for his noonday dose of end liver
oil, He evvears he cannot dose himeelf
alone. I tell him have already had two
pills and am feeling pretty comfortable, but

third plaster, and Freddie all the
cod grease kis breathing machinery
really need?. Vim I3umblebeirg then,
being a , good fellow, orders another
fish toddy for Freddie, a fourth pill for me
and an entirely superfluous plaster for him-
self. .It is now incumbent on me to set
th m • Fred's h r, d t
other dose all round. Just at this juncture
in comes jolly George Bolivar, who has the
umping toothache, and two jolly friends
with the heart disease. Ile introduces me
to his friends. I introduce him to my
friencla, and then the real pleasure of the
clay begins. Van Bumbleburg can't stand
another platter, and tries it little colchicum;
I vary the pine with a little aconite 'and
ginger '; Freddie is full of cod-liver oil to
the ears, but takes podophylin straight—we
have the pleaetinteet sort of a time, sample
every drug in the shop, and go home with
seventeen distinct symptoms, and smelling
like a case of cholera. Now, really, why
should Lucian, in tlae first place, demand
the right to pay for my pill ? it can save
me nothing, for I am compelled by the
sacred laws of Treat to at once insiet on his
taking it secend plaster. Freddie has weak
lungs, mid needed only one touch of cod-
liver ; but before he leaves we pump him to
full he feels like an oil company. There
in something wrong in thie syatetn. I
know there is something wrong with my

the "tide frequently cast up at several parts
of the country to the great astonishment of
the beholders. Pereons who went about
their lawful occupations fell often into the
hands of these mercilees cannibals and never
returned home again.
This raised it general outcry among their
friends Ana relativeta insomuch that the
whole country was alarmed at such a great
and mysterious loss of people, . which fre-
quently happened in travelling into the
West of Scotland. Private spies were sent
out into all parts to find out, if possible, how
these unexplainable events happened. For
a length of time their strictest searches and
enquires were to no purpose.
At last the discovery of the cannibals
was thus made. A man and his wife, W.110
was behind on the same horee, coining one
evening from it fair, and falling into the am-
buscade of these merciless wretches thew

stupefaction and amazement, They carried
him to Glasgow, and, relating the matter to
the provost of the city, he imutediately sent
to the King concerning the matter. In a
few days an army of 400 horsemen and a
numberof hounds started in search of the
cannibals. After a careful hunt they came
to the apartment of Sawney, Beane where,
to their great surprise they beheld:the lege,
arms, thighs, hands arid feet of men, omen
and children hung up like dried e° and
some limbs:lying in pickle. In addit in to
these there was a great mass .of money,
both gold and silver, watches,rings, swords,
pistols, and it great quantity of clothes, both
linen and woollen, and infinite other things
which had been stolen from those the can-
nibals had murdered.

beside himself, consisted of his wife, eight
sons, six daughters, eighteen grandsons and
