' down in the corner if the fence and paut
like a Hazard. Many a lime I huve wuided
to be a child so that I cmild cry and not
be ashamed, for I was not used to these
'things, and J.heyjvent hurd wiih me. Bui
there was the dear .wife and the little o.hil-

.(Therefore, he buy :i painting for a $1 00,-
. 000, or a thousand dollur carpet, and the
poor fellow is miserable because his jaoney
' won't buy peace und happiness.
"Now, 1 am raising my boys to be
farmers, for it's the happiest life to live. 1
would rather they should ynai:e a hundred
'dollars clear at farming than a thousand
at law or medicine, or ten thouauud by
' epeculution. It will do them pore good
and pay better in the long run. ' I would
rather sit down to n.y own bread uud but
tcr and milk than the richest .least that
roomy will buy."
That sort of talk suilB me exactly. ,"Vbe
truth is out people cook too much and eat
-too much. The trouble or having coows
and keeping em and ulways spreading a
bountiful table of meals and sauces and
pudding and pies is the curse of the do-

The dullest child who hates a boo's mill, in
raioy weather, tcal up to a newspaper,
read a marringe notice on advertisement or
two, and rut it down. The next time
probably he will become bolder and get
through "a horrible murder." Soon be
will read short Ules of fiction ; then just
before election time, he begins to peep into
politics, and even to read political speeches.
Last of all he attacks foreign news. By
tfiis time his curiosity is on most subjects
excited, and he is lured on to become a
reading and well informed man. It is strange
that any family, as a measure of economy
should be without a newspaper. Children
ace the world cheaply at home, in a news
paper, without the danger of bad associa
tion or the expense of travel. Printer's
