Tne day want on. Night csine. Weak ami hungry, ho laid down, and fell into a deep place. He dreamed about tho "Woolen Stocking," over aud over agais.

PLEASANT UOUKj. Squire Jone?, who was a vevy plain spjkeu old gentleman, used to go into the public loafing resorts about nine o'cloek every evening, and after look ing around enquiringly would say, "Well, gentlemen, what are you doing born ? Aie your homes not pleasant !" The squire inferred that a man who loved to loaf arouod bur-rooms and bill. lard rooiue at night could not have a pleasaot home, and the squire was right. A nun who prefers the smell of tobac co smoke and Mule beer, aud the tnifcid lanesus society which is usually found in places of tins sort, to the musical laughter of children, the sweet smile of a loving wife, the pertumo of flowers aud the companionship of good books, must bavo a very depraved tuste. To be sure, there are homes thav are not pleas, ant, and it is no marvel that men fly trom them as from a den or lair where erouch and crawl the poisonous serpent and savage beast. The wife growls aud whines and snaps aud snarls, tho chidrcn fight and the bahy squills Titers is a cootiuocd bedlnu, an ever, lasting hubbub. It may not be pleas ant for the woman, who cannot floe from it, but she has made her own bod, aod il is jusMbat she should lie io it. Tut aim ot every man and woman should be to make a heaven of home, then the men will seek it as a place of rest and peace and joy, and tint oh ldrci will uot bjjo u jjii 'it prowlers and street scavengers. x. eunious "oTiaiTbToNE FOREST FIRE.
