Gentle Words—Loving Smiles.
The sun may warm tbe-grass to life,
"The dew the drooping flower, *
And eyes grow bright and-waich the light,
Of autumn's Opening hour—
But words that breathe of tenderness,
And smiles we know are true,
Arc warmer than the summer time,
And brighter than the dew.
It is not much the world can give,
With all its subtle art,
And gold and gems arc not the things
To satisfy the heart;
But oh, if those who cluster round
The alter and the hearth,
Have gentle words and loving smiles,
How beautiful is earth!

2. Unite firmness with gentleness. Let
yonr children always understand that you
mean exactly what you say.
3. Never promise them anything unless
you are quite sure you can give them what
you promise.
4. If you tell a little child to do some
thing, show him how to do it, and see that it
is done.
5. Always punish your children for -wil
fully disobeying you, but never punish them
in anger.
6. Never let them perceive that they can
vex you, or make you lose’your self-com
mand.
7. If they give way to petulcnce and tem
per, wait till they are calm, and then gent
ly reason with them on the impropriety of
their conduct.
8. Remember that a little present punish
ment, when the occasion arises, is much
more effectual than tho threatening of a
greater punishment, should the fault be re
newed.
9. Never give your children anything be
cause they cry for it.
10. On no account allow them to do at
one time what you have forbidden, Under
like circumstances at another.
11. Teach them that the only sure and
easy way to appear good is to be good.
12. Accustom them to make their little
recitals with perfeet truth.
13. Never allow of tale-bearing.
14. Teach them that seif-denial, not self-
indulgence, is the appointed and the sure
method of securing happiness.
15. Guard them against the indulgence
of an angry and resentful spirit.
If these rules were reduced to practice—
daily practice—by parents and guardians,
how much misery would be prevented—how 1
many in danger of ruin would be saved—and
largely would the happiness of a thousand

Treating on a Trade.
Some years since, when money was scarce,
and almost everything was done in the way
of trade, a man .named Jones called- in at
the grocery- and dry goods store of Mr.
Brown, [down east,) and asked for a darn
ing-needle, and offered in exchange an egg.
After receiving the needle, Jones said:
•• Come, sir, ain't you going to treat r ’

«• Certainly, a trade is a trade, let it be
big or little.”

Playing the Devil.
Vic v, ere a good deal amused at an
dote we heard the other day, of a certain
preacher whose calling confined him within
the limits of old Kentucky. He had preach
ed in his parish many years, and of coarse
run short of the eloquence so much needed
to keep his parishioners awake and astonish
ed. Let him preach ever so well now, it
made no difference—they had got used to
him and used to sleeping, and sleep they
would, to bis great annoyance. At last he
hit upon an expedient to bring 'em up stand-*
ing, as the saying is. He procured a small
tin whistle, which he took with him into the
pulpit, and after taking his text, and bias
ing away until his longs were sore, and his
hearers all comfortably dozing and nod ding
approval to each other, he suddenly dyew it
forth, and gave a shrill toot-a-toet. In an
instant the whole congregation were awake
and upon tliefr feet, staring at the minister,
at each other, and wondering what in the
name of pickles and human nature, as Sam
Slick says, was to come next. •• Yon an •
set of smart specimens of humanity, ain’t
you said the divine whistler, as he aknr-
ly gazed around on tbe astonished assem
blage. ••. When I preach the gospel to you,
you all go to sleep, but the moment I go to
play the devil, you’re all wide awake, up
and coming like a rush of hornets pith q

A Consistent Servant.—A very good
lady in Boston had in her employment a
young man from the country. On certain
occasions he was instructed to inform any
company who might ring at tbe door, that
Mrs. was not at home.
One day John made this reply to an in
timate friend of tbe lady, who shortly went
away, leaving a card and a promise to call
again. As the card was handed to Mrs..——
she said:
<• John, what did yon say to tte lady
1 told her you were not at home.’'
“ Weil, John, I hope you did not laugh.”
“ Oh, no, ma’am,” said John, «I
laugh when I tell a lie ”
A golden rule for a young lady is to ewite
verse always with yonr female friends as if
a gentleman were of the party; and with
young men, aa if yonr female
were present.
