feeling, too, that there are many Who, hav

in the hrst place, there should .be perfect
armony of colors in the furnishing of a
p'oom. If this be lacking, no room can be
Ipleasing to the "eye, or restful to the souli , .
j If the prevailing color of the. carpet be
;reen green damask for lounges, ottomans,

jasily obtained, as blue or fosecolor, jor

nicely on either end the mantle, with a solid

I there a tall white one, neither in keeping

no blonde ot good taste would'fchoose.
Furniture'and little articles of adornment
misplaced, though never, so slightly; bureau
drawers a little ; ajarf a slipper here, or a
hairpin there, give to a sleeping room a
neglected air, that speaks volumes of excuses

Now we know that' some faces bending
over these lines will grow cloudy;- and that

Sadder things may come to one in life
than the realization of that very jwish.
Di vi nest content should come to a
mother with the coming ' of her children;
and labor has a; quiet; benest dignity of its
own one i should be,, proud . to wear. How
those little .ones are r nurtured, and in what
manner that labor is performed, determines
the happiness and the beauty of a home.
If children are 'allowed, simply because
they t are r cold or , hungry, to leave caps,
books, gloves, etc.. etc., lying promiscuous
ly about in the sitting or dining room,
instead of putting them' in their places,
home may be forever in confusion, and the
mother wearied to death by what she terms
care, when half her annoy ance is the result
of untidiness. Combs and brushes are left
uncleansed hpoh chair and window sill;
towels thrown across the wash pitcher or
stands instead of : beings folded . evenly and
hung squarely upon the rack; water is left
in the basin and the soap bowl, and bits of
paper, shreds of linen, and crumbs of cake
and-pastry, are herer and ' there, and ; every

the ruin of six cheerfully or patiently. , j r-
