The little ones, we nieaii the children
who -.are growing up in' our homes, and
calling oil u daily alid hourly for" loving,
p'atieut care.' ' How" often liave, we. heard
the above expressed, from the Y llpkiof
some wPafy mother, and 'never withoni; a
consciousness that ft,1 grated haishly Oil
the instincts of our.leiter nature . .r- :;
How much fault we flndirwith our chil
dren, little1Tf,'e'!H?.iiig" that we are only
"eliiidren of a larger growth." v itow im
patient we become; with their never-ceasing
questions ; how thoughtlessly we; de
molish their .block-houses; how incessant
ly we find fault witji their little pattering
feet that so ofteii lead them into forbidden
hooks and corners ! Torn bibs and dresses
are a fruitful theme for Conversation -and
reprimand, and,, in, despair five;out of .the
half-dozen, are hustled off to school to get
them otit of the '; ! .
jfow' we do not believe God ever intend
ed children to be so much trouble, and we.!
have a theory, that if mothers would only
live a little morel theHshOuldPelrlldren
would iiot approach -so neaVTy tlie-cbndi--tioii
of "little torments." Inllig first ''lace
do not entail so nincli he red itary eil upon
your children, a tut you. will not luive your-
self to reforni agaih in miniature.. In the
iiext place set fashion at defiance, and let
the little beings have any quantity of fresh
air, stiod wholesome food, and watelTful,.
moral training. " Teach yoitr children it is' :
ah liohor to 'work.' Impress ou .theii; minds.
the fact that they are to become a help and
comfort to, yoiv.aiid .jii.. nine pases put . of
teii, they will really become so. Be their
advisors and let them become your com
panions;' V" ' , ' ; , ' .

will ' bc youi;.?.1 First in the memory of
every, child will stand the mother, whose
affectionate teachings they can never for
get, and wheir life with you shall be slow
ly waning, and you feel as though 'vou
would faiii relinquish its burden,, there
will be kind hands and youthful shoulders
to help you bear it, and till your heart
w'ith the sweet consciousness that you hare
not lived in vain that you have ' nobly
filled the part of a wise and loving mother!
In the decline of years, you will bless
tidd for the gift bf the little ones who are
"so much trouble" to von now'." So ' live

THE WAY SPOIL OfltlA
If any parent wishes a receipt' how to
spoil a daughter, it can be easily and
readily 'given, and can' be: proved bj'.' jthe
experience of .hunurcds to be certain and
efficacious ; 1st. Be always.-telling.; from,
her eaf ikst: ehihl hood,' what a' beautiful
creature site is." It is -a capital way of1 in
flating the vanity of a little girl to beeoh
stShtly e'xclainiilig, "IIow pretty !-' Chil
dren uhdetr'statid stich flattery even when
in the nurse's amis, and the evil is done to
the character in its earliest formation.
2d. Beghi, as soon as' she can toddle,' to
dress her out .in fashionable clothes and
rich dresses. Put a hoop upon her at once,
with all the artificial adornments of floun
ces, and feathers, and flowers, and cliiis.
Fondness for dress will thus become a
prominent characteristic, and will usurp
the whole attention of the young mortal,
and be a long step towards spoiling her.
3d." Let her visit so much that she finds ho
happiness at home, and therefore will not
be apt to stay there and learn holhfi tHltics.
It is a capital thing for a spoiled daughter
to seek all her happiness in visiting, and
change of plaee and associates. She will
thus grow as useless as modern fashionable
parents del ight thattheir daughters should
be. 4th. Be careful that her education
gives her a, smattering of all the acorn pjislv
ments without the slightest knowledge of
the things really useful in life. If her
mind and time are occupied in modern ac
complfshme"nstliereJwill "W-iio. thought
of the necessity and virtue of being of
some real use to somebody pervading her
heart, . ond she will soon be ready as.a spoils
ed daughter 5th. A'fr'aoreqnencejkef g
her in profound ignorance of all the useful
arts of housekeeping, impressing ppo.ij.her
mind that it is vulgar to Jo anything for
yourself, or to learn how anything is done
in the house. A spoiled daughter ' slioiM
never be taught-fehermje'if--t4cItAll-J
en ;'snch things a lady always l eaves to the
servants. ,r It would be '"vulgar for her 16
know hov to dress a salad or make a pudr
ding As a mistress of a house, it is her
duty to sit on a sofa all day, ih the midst of
a pyramid of silks and flounces, reading
the last ntiw ribveit while" her dOmestTt's
are performing the labors of the house.
6th. To complete the happfiiessbf your
spoiled daughter, "marry her toji bearded
youth With soft h'ftSd who knows a fet
tle how-to earn money as she does to save
it. Her happiness will then be finished
for her lifetime:,

Mary tddk tlie advice, gave Adam a
quarter and a jug, and off he started.
After getting, his jug filled, and on his
way back, Adam concluded to taste the
riini: -. One taste followed another un
til he tumbled oyer a pile of rocks and
broke the jug. and lost the rum. Adam
managed to stagger home. , Soon - as

Curiosities of Eating-, ' '
;r;. An old beau.- formerly, well known in
the, city of WAisiiitlgtoaii: wasatCi33tom
ed to eat but one , incal; in r, twenty-four
hours; if after this he had to go to a
pitrty and take a second dinner, he ate"
mi thing all the next day. He died at
the age of sevent.y. .,
",;A iadr of Culture, ofrcfihement and
usual powers of observation and com
parison, became a widow. Reduced
from aflUehce to. poverty with a large
family o'f smair' Children dependent on
her manual labor 'for daily food, she
made a variety of experiments to . as
certain what articles could be purchas
ed for the least money, and would at
the same time -"go the farthest-'" 03
keeping hei' children fiCin Crying for
something to eat, ' She soon discover
ed that when they ate buckwheat ; cakes
and molasses, they were, quiet:, for
a longer ; time than after eating ; any
other kind of. food: -. . ;
A distinguished Judge of the United
States Court observed that, when he
took buckyvheat ., cakes for breakfast,
he could sit on the bench the whole
day without being uncomfortably hun.
gry if the: calces, were" omitted, he fel,t
obliged to , take a lunch' about 'noon.'
Buckwheat cakes ate a universal faf.641
rite at the winter breakfast table, and
scientific investigations' and 'analysis
have shown that they 'abound 'in :the
heat forming principle : hence nature
takes 'away our appetite for them in
summer! : - ':' '
During the Irish famine, when many
died of hunger, the poor 'were found
spending their last shilling for tea, to
baCcd and. spirits;1 : It has also: been
observed in New! York, by those con
nected yvith charitable institutions, that
when money; was paid to the poor they
laid out every cent in tea or coffee, in-.
stead Of procuring the more substan
tial food, such as, meal and flour and
potatoes. On being reproved for their
apparent extravagance and , improvi
deuce, the cry universally was in both
cases, identical;, their owil observa
tions had sliqwii them that a iiehny's
worth of tea, tobacco xr liquor .Would
keep off the sense of hunger longer than
a penny's worth' of anything else. Sci
entific men express the same idea by
saying : "Tea, like alchohol, retards
th e metamorphis of the tissues ; in oth
er words, it gives fuel to the flame of
life,' and thusjprevents it from consum
ing the fat arid flesh of the body;"
If a person gets into the habit of tak
ing a lunch between breakfast and din
ner he will sqdn find himself getting
faint abdttt the regular luncnebn time ;
but let him be so joressed with impor
tant' engagements for several clays in
succession as to take nothing' between
meals it Will iiot be long before he can
dispense with.' his lunch altdgethef.
These thihgs seem to show that to a
certain extent, eatiilg ' is : ft habit.
Whole1 tribes of ' indiail : hunters and
trappers have been known to ' eat but
oneealif twentyfour hours, and that at
night.

urgent, he r went to' 1 bis steward : and
told him he must have S his . money; as
his family yverb suffering fbf, the necesr

steward;" You preach for money ? I
thought you preached for the good of
souls! 4 bouts ! replied the minister;
'I can't eat souls ! and- if - I could, it
would take a thousand such as yours to
