Isn- nginatiou may be a immense assist- anoe in adding to the beauty and .un- selfishness 0; life, but when Imre- atralned It may serve to distract thew very qualtties. Probably insuffieient attention is paid to this Subject, especially with •ehildren, in whom iraagination is rapidly developed, and in whose life* • it plays a large part, A minuent's thought will convince ,is QC the early age at w.hich, we be7 gan "to imagine," or, if we have for- gotten, a Livia study of any young. ster will quickly recall it. By far tue gteater number of people isavn by tee tad of imagination clothed per. • tain abetraos ideas in definite, con - area,: toms, and have done this when tlo youug that it is inniossihie for them to remember the time when these things first took shape. • The roost vivid buagininga are as a rule those which a ohad•produces ah- sautely, autt apart frera the sugges- tiOn. of °leers. tinder this. head come tbe imaginary ohild-friend a whose •esietence the grown.up people are Un- aware until the real chila is overhear& talking to it and calling it by 'ratline, . and the mareelous religious concep• ..t Lions which °klikken not infrequently ' ereate for themselves. A very little girl was missing one summer evening, and a search had to be instituted through the garden and grounds be- fore she was discovered some from tin house, entirely Mime and _evidently extremely:happy. On being asked what she had been doing, there wets .ros trace of alarm, at bavirig strayed away or for fear a being ecoldeli for her escapade; she siraply looked up and said: "Oh, mamnia, I have bud such a bootiful walk wiv God I" Very wisely her mother said nothing, but just gathered her main her arms and kissed her as she Oar; ried her homeward, Now, wbat has tha 1 ohild imagined? Who oan .say? It is -almost sacred groundand one fears to tread. The thought occurs that, we older folk halm doubtless set up a screen between ourselves and the unseen world -a thiak covering of earthly thoughts and. interests and desires -such as does not exist -with those little ones whosuangels do al• ways behold the face of the Father which is in heaven. Next in imporience te the unsug- gested imaginings are those to which a sensitive child gives way on the slightest hint. Here one comes .to more practical matters, where those who have to do with children have much to answer for.. It is- kat/enable to gauge the limits a imagination unce ta t d I is eqnallyhnosiblep to determine at how early an age a suggestion of any kind may bearfruit. A lady once said that •h.er childhood ivas one long misery owing to a livid' imagination of the terrors that await- ed her for having committed some fault when a mere baby .in the nur- sery. It was not, she said, .that match had been said at the time, but there was some suggestion of an awful: un- known .punishment, which her ehild- ish brain worked mien and developed until she dared not be left alone,- and became a thoroughly morbid and wretched little being. No one knows how much of the whole tendency of o homlan life may -depend on a chance word which sets a child's imagination working, and too great care cannot possibly be exercised by those with whom children have tqsdo. . Not infrequently an apparent false- hood can be traced to an ov,er-vivid imagination, and in thisacase, should the child be punished ;for lying, great injury may be done to that sense of justice whigh it is all important to. preserve. Above all things it must be remeni- bared that a sensitive and imaginative child is easily soared. Instances will occur to the mind of most People where a severe and hasty ecousation has brought about an untrue confes. sion. A child is partly afraid to con- tradict, and partly, perhaps, has its imagination so stirred by the convinc- ing tone, of the °power, that for the moment it is really uncertain whether it comxnitted the fault or not: But this is very sure, that the memory .of the false accusation will abide for life and embitter many a solitary time and wakeful hour. Happiness is an essential atmos phere • for the upbringing of a child, just as sunelhine for •the rearing of a plant, and happiness is ;to a large ex- tent dependent in childhood upon im- agination. It is true that the mon vivid fancies seem to spring up unbid- den, but it is also true that it is pos- sible in a large degree to influence the kind of imagination. A child whose 4 parents are occupied entirelywitb themselves and their own affairs and have no sympathy with childish fan- cies will shrink up into itself and/have a stunted moral and physical growth; the terrified child will grow up amid horrible imaginings; it is only the • child to whom gentleness and sym- pathy are al the very air it ;breathes, who will imagine happy and beautiful things, and live to -enjoy the fulfill. ment of them here and hereafter. THE NEWEST LINGERIE.' On hie return he called upon the cur- ate, who was looking far from hand- some. In ordur that he might not hurt las feelings by looking 1ptil otraight in the face, Mr. a Beckett took a chair by the window, and pre- tended to look into the street. After inquiries as to Mr. Itusden's • health had been duly answered, the Vicar quietly asked for home explan- ation of the event of tne previous day. • It was given in full, the. curate inter- spersing his narrative with many ex- pressions of self.condeinnation. "Of course 1 must go," he added ; "and I shall never be able to make you understand how sorry I shall be to leave you." Per the moment the idea was wel- oolne toMv, a Beckett -but for the moment only. "No," he said, kindly,' "you need not go. I never thought ot such a thing till now. Remain and live it down."

Then, by deem, sp. awful suspichin dawned upon him, "IS it a daub?" he asked at last. • Mr, a Beckett considered that the lime was crime for telling the truth. "Yes," he said very . fmntly ; but, had revenge been his object, he could not have attained it raore complete- ly. : . • • • • e • The 'bolls were ringing for service on the Sunday. after Mr. Rusden'e re- turn. He had arrived late on Satur- day night, and bad not seen the Vicar • until he met him in the vestry. .•It was arranged that the curate wanato preach although he felt se1iouS mis- givings as, to facing the somewhat scanty congregation, His face was now as handsome as'ever, and not a trace of the 'conflict remained on it. A.s he passed through the -v}llage lie. noted an un -usual stir, and was sur- prisea to sae groups of minersoall'in their Sunday clothes. "1 snaipare they sire going off on some excursion," he said to himself, carefully avoiding them, whereas for-, inerly head always gen them hear- ty. greetings. In truth, he felt more ashamed of himself than ever. On nearing the church door, however, one man intercepted him, and -said: • "Be you a -going to preach this "Yes," returned the curate, hurried- ly. "All, we heerd as much yesterday." Mr. a Beckett greeted him kindly and looked at him keenly for a mo- ment, but made go realm*. The service had just begun when a tramping of feetwas heard, and the entire body of miners marched up the aisle, and, after some difficulty, seat- ed 'themselves. This amazing sight diverted the attention of the congreg- ation, who had never seen one of the men in church before: They behaved however, very, reverently, and listen- ed to the sermon with marked inter- est. It was a very short discourse, and treated 'principally of the short- comings of professing Cbristians, and the• sorrow resulting from I heir er- rors. The Vicar hurried out to the Miners after the service, in order, that he might express his gratification at their attendance. He would greatly have liked to ask Why they came, but thought he would let well alone.. Mr, Rusden remained in the vestry. The unusual addition to the congrega- tioia was soon explained. "Tell Parson Rusden,» said one o the men, "that he needn't be down -in the mouth because of that there fight. We are all right -down glad that bully Gibson found his match and hit a licking; and we all came to church on purpose to show Parson Rusden we took his part." "Will you come again?' asked the Vicar, genially. "Yes," replied the man, after con- sidering for it moment, "we will. A man what can' fight like he did muet have real grit in him, and we'll come again." • Mr, a Beckett went home. and, mus- ed aver the strange mysteries of hu- man nature.

He seemed sarangely silent and ill at ease. "Rusden, my dear fellow," said the Viesr .kindly. "I must tell you my news. Since yen want away I have become engaged to be married." Mr. Rusden offered his hearty con- gratulatibms, and asked if there was any further news. "Well, no," said Mr. a Beckett, who did not choose to say that stexcely a day had passed since 1fr, Rusden had gone on which the great dignitary of the Church had not come to call How our graparnothers would gasp were they to see the gossamer fabrics which now do duty instead of the stout twills and long cloths of their day.
